DTC P0770-11: Shift Solenoid "E" Circuit Short to Ground [11/2017 - ]: Description
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus RC 350, 2023 Lexus RC 350, 2022 Lexus RC 350, 2021 Lexus RC 350, and 2020 Lexus RC 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Based on the ON-OFF combinations of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4, SL5, SLT, SLU, SL and SR, the ECM performs gear shifts from 1st gear to 8th gear. If a circuit related to a shift solenoid valve is open or shorted, the ECM uses the fail-safe function to turn other shift solenoid valves on or off. If all shift solenoid valves are malfunctioning, only the mechanical fluid pressure circuit will function and some manual operation will be possible. If an open or short has occurred, the ECM cuts power to the malfunctioning shift solenoid valve.
