DTC P281B-13: Pressure Control Solenoid "H" Control Circuit Open [09/2023 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Lexus TX 500h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SOLENOID (SL5) VALVE - TCM) 

    Pre-procedure1

    • Disconnect the TCM connector.
    • Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Result
      C25-3 (SL5+) - C25-20 (SLG2) 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω Ω
      C25-3 (SL5+) or C25-20 (SLG2) - Body ground and terminals other than C25-40 (SL2+) Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C25-20 (SLG2) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω Ω

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Post-procedure1

    • None.

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  4

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK TCM (HSDN TERMINAL VOLTAGE) 

    Pre-procedure1

    • Disconnect the TCM connector.
    • Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    • Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Result
      C25-52 (HSDN) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V V

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Post-procedure1

    • None.

    Result: 

    NG
