SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses the vehicle speed signal and signals from the transmission revolution sensors (NT, SP2) to detect the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th gear).
The ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical problems of the shift solenoid valves, transmission valve body assembly or automatic transmission assembly (clutch, brake or gear etc.).

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on and off. According to the input turbine speed and output shaft speed, the ECM detects the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th gear). When the gear commanded by the ECM and the actual gear are not the same, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
PROCEDURE
1. |
CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0776) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read the DTCs using the Techstream.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (CONTROL THE SHIFT POSITION) |
NOTICE:
This test should always be performed with at least 2 people.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(e) Turn the Techstream on.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
(g) According to the display on the Techstream, perform the Active Test.
HINT:
Comparing the gear commanded by the Active Test with the actual gear enables confirmation of the problem (See page ).
