1. Check whether the HDS indicates any other DTC simultaneously with DTC P1898.
Are there any other DTCs?
YES - Troubleshoot the indicated DTC, and recheck for DTC P1898 after troubleshooting.
NO - Go to step 2.
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Warm up the engine until the engine coolant temperature reaches 176°F (80°C).
4. Check the IMA battery level gauge in the gauge control module (speed).
Does the battery level gauge indicate 4-19 segments?
YES - Go to step 5.
NO - Run the engine in the P position at 3,500 rpm until the battery level gauge shows 4-19 segments, then go to step 5.
5. Shift to the D position, and keep pressing the brake pedal for 5 seconds. Accelerate from a stop until the vehicle speed reaches 40 - 50 mph (65 - 80 km/h), and run the vehicle on a flat road for more than 15 seconds. Do not release the accelerator during test-driving. Slow down to a stop, and after stopping keep pressing the brake pedal for 5 seconds.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Restart the engine, and repeat test-driving step 5.
7. Check that DTC P1898 recurs.
Is DTC P1898 indicated?
YES - Replace CVT drive pulley pressure control valve and, CVT driven pulley pressure control valve, then go to step 8.
NO - Return to step 5, and repeat test-driving. If the HDS does not indicate a DTC after the test-drive has been done four times, the problem was an intermittent failure; the system is OK at this time.
