DTC P0962: Malfunction of the Line Pressure Solenoid Valve (low input)
 
 
 
 
DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
If a predetermined current does not flow into the line pressure solenoid valve (short to ground), the TCM will determine the system is defective.
 
 
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
The solenoid valve drive circuit remains short to ground for 0.2 seconds.
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION
  • Voltage of battery: 10 volts or more.
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (OTHER MONITOR AND SENSOR)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)
  • P0966, P0967: Malfunction of secondary pressure solenoid valve
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)
  • Not applicable
 
 
LOGIC FLOW CHARTS (Monitor Sequence)
 
 
DTC SET CONDITIONS
Check Conditions
  • Voltage of battery: 10 volts or more.
Judgment Criteria
  • Line pressure solenoid valve actual current: 1.78 A or more (0.2 seconds).
 
 
OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Ignition switch: ON (start the engine and keep it for 5 seconds or more).
 
 
PROBABLE CAUSES
  • Malfunction of the valve body assembly (Faulty line pressure solenoid valve)
  • Damaged wiring harness and connectors
  • Malfunction of TCM
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools
  • MB992006: Extra fine probe
STEP 1. Check for short to ground in PLLS line between the CVT assembly connector and the TCM connector.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the connector(s) or the wiring harness.
 
STEP 2. Line pressure solenoid valve check.
Refer to .
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 3.
 
STEP 3. Check for short to ground in signal line between the CVT assembly connector and the valve body harness connector (line pressure solenoid valve line).
Refer to .
Is the check result normal?
Replace the valve body assembly. (Refer to )
Replace the valve body harness. (Refer to )
 
STEP 4. Symptom recheck after erasing diagnostic trouble code.
Is the diagnostic trouble code set?
Replace the TCM.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions ).
