DTC P0731-871: Gear 1 Incorrect Ratio: Description

The hybrid vehicle control ECU uses the B1 and B2 brakes in the hybrid vehicle transmission assembly to switch between low and high gear.

Shifting control is performed using the line pressure circuit, B1 circuit, and B2 circuit. The hybrid vehicle control ECU detects abnormal line pressure by monitoring the operation of the fluid pressure switch in each circuit.

HINT: 

Although the DTC title indicates an incorrect gear ratio, DTC P0731-871 relates to a malfunction of the B2 hydraulic circuit.
