DTC P0795-7F: Pressure Control Solenoid "C" Actuator Stuck Off [12/2019 - 10/2022]: Description

Based on signals from the transmission revolution sensors (NT and NC), the actual gear is detected.

The ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical malfunctions of the solenoid valves, transmission valve body assembly and automatic transaxle assembly (clutch, brake, gear, etc.).

HINT:

ACTUAL GEAR WHEN SOLENOID (SL3) VALVE MALFUNCTION OCCURS (WITHOUT FAIL-SAFE CONTROL):

ECM commanded gear	1st	2nd	3rd	4th	5th	6th	7th	8th
Actual gear during SL3 stuck ON malfunction	3rd	3rd	3rd	3rd	3rd to 5th	7th	7th	7th
Actual gear during SL3 stuck OFF malfunction	1st	2nd	N*	4th	5th	6th	N*	8th

*: Neutral

DTC No.	Detection Item	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area	MIL	Memory	Note
P0795-7F	Pressure Control Solenoid "C" Actuator Stuck Off	All of the following conditions are met (2-trip detection logic): Engine coolant temperature is 40°C (104°F) or higher. ATF temperature is -10°C (14°F) or higher. The vehicle is being driven with the shift lever in D. No malfunctions are detected in the solenoid (SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4, SL5, SL6, SL, SLU and SLT) valves, transmission revolution sensors (NT and NC), coolant temperature sensor, oil temperature sensor, knock sensor, crankshaft position sensor circuits, electronic throttle or CAN communication system. Any of the following conditions are met: When the ECM commands the transaxle to shift to 1st, 2nd, 4th or 5th gear, the actual gear changes to 3rd gear for 0.8 seconds or more. When the ECM commands the transaxle to shift to 6th or 8th gear, the actual gear changes to 7th gear for 0.8 seconds or more. When the ECM commands the transaxle to shift to 3rd or 7th gear, the engine overruns (neutral status) for 0.5 seconds or more.
