DTC P0796: Pressure Control Solenoid "C" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL3) [12/2013 - 11/2015]: Procedure
- CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0796)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes
- Read the DTCs using the Techstream.
Result
Result Proceed to Only DTC P0796 is output A P0796 and other DTCs are output B HINT:
If a solenoid is stuck off, DTCs for several solenoids including the malfunctioning solenoid will be detected.

- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM NOTE:
This test should always be performed with at least 2 people.
- Warm up the engine.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
- According to the display on the Techstream, perform the Active Test.
HINT:
Comparing the gear commanded by the Active Test with the actual gear enables confirmation of the problem.
Refer to FAIL-SAFE CHART [12/2013 - ]
Powertrain > Engine > Active Test
Tester Display Measurement Item Control Range Diagnostic Note Control the Shift Position Operates the shift solenoid valves to allow gears to selected manually. - Press "→" button: Upshift occurs
- Press "←" button: Downshift occurs
Can be used to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.
Upshifts and downshifts should be performed consecutively. A 10-second interval is required between gear changes.
Do not downshift at high speeds.
Doing so will damage the automatic transaxle.
[Vehicle Condition]
50 km/h (30 mph) or lessPowertrain > Engine > Active Test
Tester Display Control the Shift Position NOTE:- This test can be conducted when the vehicle is stopped.
- When shifting gears using the Active Test function, do not operate the accelerator pedal for 2 seconds before and after shifting gears.
HINT:
The gear commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List / Shift Status display on the Techstream.
- Check the vehicle speed and the gear when the engine speed is 1000 rpm.
HINT:
Because the torque converter clutch has not engaged, it may be difficult to obtain the speeds specified in 4th, 5th, and 6th gear, however a difference of speed should still be evident following each gear change.
Standard
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 8 to 12 km/h (5 to 7.5 mph) 15 to 19 km/h (9.3 to 11.8 mph) 21 to 25 km/h (13.0 to 15.5 mph) 31 to 35 km/h (19.3 to 21.7 mph) 44 to 48 km/h (27.3 to 29.8 mph) 52 to 56 km/h (32.3 to 34.8 mph) - Compare the ECM commanded gear and the actual gear.

- *1: Neutral
- *2: If shift solenoid SLT is stuck on, the line pressure will be low. Therefore, the amount of torque that can be transmitted by each gear is lower than the normal limit. When the engine power exceeds this lowered limit, the engine speed will increase freely.
- *3: When shift solenoid SLT is stuck off, gear shifting is normal.
