DTC P0733

Gear 3 incorrect (incorrect gear ratio detected)

DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors revolution ratio of forward clutch drum revolution to differential gear case revolution when the following monitoring conditions are met. If the revolution ratio is 2.185 (ZY)/2.157 (Z6, LF) or more, the PCM determines that there is a malfunction.
Monitoring condition:
―  Engine running
―  ATF temperature 20 °C {68 °F} or more
―  Driving in 3 GR in D or M range
―  Turbine speed within 225—4,987 rpm
―  Differential gear case (output) revolution speed 35 rpm or more
―  None of the following DTCs are present: P0706, P0707, P0708, P0712, P0713, P0715, P0720, P0751, P0752, P0753, P0756, P0757, P0758, P0761, P0762, P0763, P0766, P0767, P0768, P0771, P0772, P0773
•  The PCM monitors revolution ratio of forward clutch drum revolution to differential gear case revolution when the following monitoring conditions are met. If the revolution ratio is within 1.404—1.704 (ZY)/1.345—1.644 (Z6, LF), the PCM determines that there is a malfunction.
Monitoring condition:
―  Engine running
―  ATF temperature 20 °C {68 °F} or more
―  Driving in 3 GR in D or M range

•  The PCM monitors revolution ratio of forward clutch drum revolution to differential gear case revolution when the following monitoring conditions are met. If the revolution ratio is 0.848 (ZY)/0.863 (Z6, LF) or less, the PCM determines that there is a malfunction.
Monitoring condition:
―  Engine running
―  ATF temperature 20 °C {68 °F} or more
―  Driving in 3 GR in D or M range
―  Torque converter clutch (TCC) not operating
―  Turbine speed within 225—4,987 rpm
―  Vehicle speed 45 km/h {28 mph} or more (ZY)
―  Vehicle speed 35 km/h {22 mph} or more (Z6, LF)
―  Differential gear case (output) revolution speed 35 rpm or more
―  None of the following DTCs are present: P0706, P0707, P0708, P0712, P0713, P0715, P0720, P0751, P0752, P0753, P0756, P0757, P0758, P0761, P0762, P0763, P0766, P0767, P0768, P0771, P0772, P0773
Diagnostic support note:
•  This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
•  The MIL does not illuminate.
•  The AT warning light illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA is not available.
•  A PENDING CODE is not available.
•  The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  ATF level low
•  Deteriorated ATF
•  Shift solenoids A or C stuck
•  Pressure control solenoid stuck
•  Line pressure low
•  3-4 clutch slipping
•  Forward clutch slipping
•  Control valve stuck (Bypass, TCC or 3-4 shift valve)
•  Oil pump malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.
•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT ATF CONDITION
•  Inspect the ATF condition.
•  Is it normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the transaxle, then go to Step 8.
3
INSPECT ATF LEVEL
•  Start the engine.
•  Warm up the ATX.
•  Is the ATF level within the specification?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Add ATF to the specified level, then go to Step 8.
4
INSPECTION SHIFT SOLENOID A AND C FOR CLICK SOUND
•  Perform operation inspection.
•  Verify the click sound of shift solenoid A and C when applying B+ to each transaxle terminal.
•  Was a click heard from solenoids?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the solenoid where you could not hear a click sound, then go to Step 8.
5
INSPECT LINE PRESSURE
•  Start the engine.
•  Measure the line pressures.
•  Are the line pressures within the specifications?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
All ranges: Replace the oil pump, then go to Step 8.
Any ranges: Replace the control valve body, then go to Step 8.
6
INSPECT STALL SPEED
•  Measure the stall speed in D range.
•  Is the stall speed within the specification?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the automatic transaxle, then go to Step 8.
7
INSPECT FREQUENCY OF INPUT/TURBINE SPEED SENSOR WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE
•  Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
•  Connect the M-MDS.
•  Start the engine.
•  Measure the frequency of input/turbine speed sensor while driving vehicle under the following conditions:
―  Vehicle speed (VSS PID): 60 km/h {37 mph}
―  Drive in the D range, 3GR
―  Throttle opening angle (THOP PID): approx. 25%
•  Was the frequency of the input/turbine speed sensor at approx. 1,200 Hz?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the control valve body, then go to the next step.
8
VERIFY REPAIR OF DTC P0733
•  Make sure to reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC using the M-MDS.

•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
9
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the "After Repair Procedure".
•  Are any DTCs present?
