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.

Based on signals from the transmission speed sensors (NT, SP2 and NC3), the actual gear is detected If the detected gear is different than the commanded gear, the TCM detects related mechanical problems in the shift solenoid valves, valve body and automatic transmission

HINT.
