DTC P1836: Shift Fork 1 Malfunction



caution
  • If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
  • Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION


TC-SST-ECU checks that the movement of the shift fork 1 is normal.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS


The movement of the shift fork 1 is determined to be abnormal.

MONITOR EXECUTION




MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (OTHER MONITOR AND SENSOR)


Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)

LOGIC FLOW CHARTS (Monitor Sequence) <Functional check - blocked>





DTC SET CONDITIONS <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - BLOCKED>


Check Conditions
JUDGMENT CRITERIA

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - BLOCKED>


The shift fork operation time is threshold value or less.

LOGIC FLOW CHARTS (Monitor Sequence) <Functional check - Neutral>





DTC SET CONDITIONS <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - NEUTRAL>


Check Conditions
JUDGMENT CRITERIA

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - NEUTRAL>


The shift fork position remains 1.8 mm (0.071 inch) or less for 250 milliseconds.

LOGIC FLOW CHARTS (Monitor Sequence) <Functional check - Shift fork 1 requested but shift fork 3 movement>





DTC SET CONDITIONS <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - SHIFT FORK 1 REQUESTED BUT SHIFT FORK 3 MOVEMENT>


Check Conditions
JUDGMENT CRITERIA

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - SHIFT FORK 1 REQUESTED BUT SHIFT FORK 3 MOVEMENT>


The status with the shift fork position -6 mm (-0.24 inch) [6th gear side] or less, or with 1.8 mm (0.071 inch) [neutral position] or less and with the initialized fork position - shift fork 1 position 2.5 mm (0.098 inch) or more continues for 200 milliseconds.

LOGIC FLOW CHARTS (Monitor Sequence) <Functional check - Shift fork 1 requested but shift fork 2 movement>





DTC SET CONDITIONS <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - SHIFT FORK 1 REQUESTED BUT SHIFT FORK 2 MOVEMENT>


Check Conditions
JUDGMENT CRITERIA

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN <FUNCTIONAL CHECK - SHIFT FORK 1 REQUESTED BUT SHIFT FORK 2 MOVEMENT>


The status with the shift fork position 6 mm (0.24 inch) [5th gear side] or more, or with -6 mm (-0.24 inch) [3rd gear side] or less, or with 1.8 mm (0.071 inch) [neutral position] or less and with the initialized fork position - shift fork 1 position 2.5 mm (0.098 inch) or more continues for 200 milliseconds.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE


Required Special Tools:
  • MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

    • MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
    • MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable
    • MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics


Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting .) After repairing the CAN bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Monitoring unit No. check


(1)Check the freeze frame data (item No. 30 to No. 37).
(2)Check which monitoring unit (No. 160, No. 172, No. 182, or No. 183) is set.

Q. Which monitoring unit is set, No. 160, No. 172, No. 182, or No. 183?

No. 160 : Go to Step 4
Other than No. 160 : Go to Step 3

STEP 3. Check whether the DTC is reset.


(1)Erase the DTC.
(2)Drive with shifting to each gear range.
(3)Check that the DTC is reset.

Q. Is DTC No.P1836 set?

Replace the transaxle assembly. (Refer to .)
Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)

STEP 4. Check whether the DTC is reset.


(1)Erase the DTC.
(2)With the engine idle status, operate the shift lever in the following sequence: P → R → D → R → P. (Hold each range for 5 seconds or more.)
(3)Check that the DTC is reset.

Q. Is DTC No.P1836 set?

Replace the transaxle assembly. (Refer to .)
Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)
