Toyota Tundra Service Manual: 1-2 Shift (1-2 Shift Valve) (P0781)

DESCRIPTION

The 1-2 shift valve performs shifting to 1st gear and other gears. When shifting to 2nd and 4th gears is impossible, or when the ECM directs the transmission to switch to 5th or 6th gear and the engine overruns (clutch slips), this DTC is stored.

DTC Code

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

P0781

  • Conditions (a) and (b), or (a) and (c) are met (2-trip detection logic):

(a) When the ECM directs the transmission to switch to 2nd gear, the actual gear is shifted to 1st.

(b) When the ECM directs the transmission to switch to 4th gear, the actual gear is shifted to 3rd.

(c) When the ECM directs the transmission to switch to 5th gear, the engine overruns (clutch slips).

  • Valve body is blocked or stuck (1-2 shift valve)
  • Shift solenoid valve SLT remains open or closed
  • Automatic transmission (clutch, brake, gear, etc.)

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates that the 1-2 shift valve in the valve body is locked in the direction the spring compresses.

The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF and switching oil pressure to the valves in the valve body.

The ECM calculates the "actual" transmission gear by comparing the signals from the input speed sensor (NT) and the output speed sensor (SP2). The ECM can detect many mechanical problems in the shift solenoids, valve body, transmission clutches, brakes, and gears. If the ECM detects that the actual gear position and the commanded gear position are different, it will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (RUNNING TEST)

HINT:

Using the Techstream to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.

(a) Warm up the engine.

(b) Turn the ignition switch off.

(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(e) Turn the Techstream on.

(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

(g) According to the display on the Techstream, perform the Active Test.

HINT:

While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the Techstream.
