Diagnostic support note:
• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
• The MIL does not illuminate if PCM detects the above malfunction conditions during first the drive cycle.
• A PENDING CODE is not available.
• FREEZE FRAME DATA is not available.
• The AT warning light illuminates.
• The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• ATF level low
• Deteriorated ATF
• Shift solenoids A, B, C, D, E, and pressure control solenoid stuck
• Line pressure low
2-4 brake band slipping
3-4 clutch slipping
• Control valve stuck
• PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY

• Verify related Service Bulletins and or/on-line repair information availability.
• Is any related repair information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.
• If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
2

INSPECT ATF CONDITION

• Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
• Inspect the ATF condition.
- Clear red: Normal
- Milky: Water mixed in fluid
- Reddish brown: Deteriorated ATF
• Is it normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
If the ATF color is milky or reddish brown, replace ATF, then go to Step 4.
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 6.
4

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE

• Start the engine.
• Measure the line pressure.

Specification

Idle:

330-470 kPa {3.4-4.7 kgf/cm2, 48-68 psi}

 

Stall:

ZY: 950-1,110 kPa {9.7-11.3 kgf/cm2, 138-160 psi}

Z6: 1,080-1,270 kPa {11.1-12.9 kgf/cm2, 157-184 psi}

LF: 1,140-1,320 kPa {11.7-13.4 kgf/cm2, 166-191 psi}

L3: 1,160-1,320 kPa {11.9-13.4 kgf/cm2, 170-191 psi}

• Are the line pressures within the specifications?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
• All ranges: Replace the oil pump or control valve body, then go to Step 6.
• Any ranges: Replace the ATX, then go to Step 6.
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
5

INSPECT OPERATION OF EACH VALVE AND EACH SPRING

• Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
• Remove the control valve body.
• Disassemble the control valve body.
• Is each valve operation normal and is the return spring normal?
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
Yes
Replace the ATX, then go to the next step.
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
No
Repair or replace the shift valve and return spring, then go to the next step.
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)

VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0742 COMPLETED

• Make sure to reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
• Clear the DTC from the memory using the WDS or equivalent.
• Start the engine.
• Warm up engine and ATX.
• Drive the vehicle under the following conditions:
- ATF temperature: 20 °C {68 °F} or more
- Drive in the D range, 4GR (TCC not in operation)
- Vehicle speed: below 70 km/h {43 mph}.
• Throttle conditions
- Throttle opening angle (TP PID) above 10% and 5 s or more have passed.
- Throttle opening angle (TP PID) within 3.13-10% and 3 s or more have passed.
- Throttle opening angle at closed throttle position and 5 s or more have passed.
• Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
7
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
• Perform the "After Repair Procedure".
• Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE.)
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
