DTC P0962: Problem in A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A Circuit

NOTE:
^ Record all freeze data and review General Troubleshooting Information before you troubleshoot,
^ This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
2. Check that DTC P0962 recurs.
Is DTC P0962 indicated?
YES - Go to step 6.
NO - Go to step 3.
3. Choose Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control in Miscellaneous Test Menu, and test A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A with the HDS.
4. Drive with the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A at 1.0 A in Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control menu.
5. Monitor the OBD Status for P0962 with the DTC Monitor Tool in DTCs/Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
Does the result indicate FAILED?
YES - Go to step 6.
NO - intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and PCM. If the tester indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 3 and recheck.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Disconnect the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector.





8. Measure A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A resistance at the solenoid connector.
Is there 3 - 10 Ohms?
YES - Go to step 9.
NO - Replace A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A, then go to step 12.





9. Check for continuity between A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 10.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and ground (G101), or repair poor ground (G101), then go to step 12.
10. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).





11. Measure the voltage between A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2.
Is there about 11 V as the ignition switch is turned to the ON (II) position?
YES - Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good PCM, replace the original PCM.
NO - Repair open or short in the wire between PCM connector terminal C1 and A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A, then go to step 12.
12. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
13. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the D position through all five gears.
14. Monitor the OBD Status for P0962 with the DTC Monitor Tool in DTCs/Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
Does the result indicate PASSED?
YES - Troubleshooting is complete.
NO - Return to step 1 and recheck.
