System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Lexus IS F. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The TCM detects the actual gear based on signals from the speed sensors (SP2, NC3 and NT).
Based on the detected gear and oil pressure switch output, the TCM detects related mechanical problems in the shift solenoid valves, valve body and automatic transmission.
HINT:
Actual gear shift position when a problem occurs in shift solenoid valve SR.

Trouble Area |
| P0771 |
- ECT is 40°C (104°F) or more, ATF temperature is -10°C (14°F) or more, and vehicle is driven with shift lever in D (no malfunctions are detected in shift solenoid valve SL1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, SR, speed sensors (NT, NC3, SP2), water temperature sensor, oil temperature sensor, knock control sensor, electronic throttle, or CAN2)
- When gear shifts to 4th to 5th are requested by TCM, engine speed overruns (neutral status)
- Malfunction status continues for 0 5 sec or more (1 trip)
- 2 trip detection logic
