DTC P0778: Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2) [04/2013 - 06/2014]: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Lexus IS 250 and 2014 Lexus IS 250. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with "ON" and "OFF" operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly.

Refer to FAIL-SAFE CHART [04/2013 - 08/2015]
