TROUBLESHOOTING <A/T>

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (FF)

23A-65

Code No.31: Low-reverse solenoid valve system

OPERATION

•

Solenoid valve closes or opens according to the 
signals from the engine-A/T-ECU.

•

The engine-A/T-ECU energizes or deenergizes 
solenoid valve, based on input signals such as 
throttle position sensor opening angle, inhibitor 
switch, etc.

diagnosis code set conditions
If the drive terminal voltage of the low-reverse 
solenoid valve is 3.0 V or less, it is judged that there 
is a short circuit or open circuit in the low-reverse 
solenoid valve, and diagnosis code 31 is set.
If diagnosis code 31 is output 4 times, the 
transmission is fixed in 3rd as a fail-safe measure.

Possible causes

•

Malfunction of low-reverse solenoid valve

•

Damaged harness wires and connectors

•

Malfunction of the engine-A/T-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. MUT-II/III diagnosis code

Q: Is diagnosis code 36 set?

YES : 

Go to Step 9.

NO : 

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. MUT-II/III actuator test

Item 01: Low-reverse solenoid valve

OK: Operating sound can be heard.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 

00 

−

 How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunction 

P.00-6

.)

NO : 

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Connector check: B-34 A/T control 
solenoid valve assembly connector

Check for the contact with terminals.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

STEP 4. Measure the resistance at A/T control 
solenoid valve assembly connector B-34.

Disconnect the connector, and measure the 
resistance between terminal No.6 and No.10 at the 
solenoid valve side.

OK: 2.7
