Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual: Shift Solenoid "A" Actuator Stuck On (P07507E)

Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual / Drivetrain / U881e (automatic Transmission / Transaxle) / Automatic Transaxle System / Shift Solenoid "A" Actuator Stuck On (P07507E)

DESCRIPTION

Based on signals from the transmission revolution sensors (NT, NC3 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 shift solenoid valves, transmission valve body assembly and automatic transaxle assembly (clutch, brake, gear, etc.).

Actual gear when shift solenoid valve S1 (without fail-safe control) malfunction occurs:

ECM commanded gear	1st	2nd	3rd	4th	5th	6th	7th	8th
*: Neutral
Actual gear during S1 stuck ON malfunction	1st	2nd	1st	4th	5th	6th	N*	8th

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on and off. According to the input shaft revolution (speed), C3 clutch drum revolution (speed) and output shaft revolution (speed), the ECM detects the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th gear). When the gear commanded by the ECM and the actual gear are not the same, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.
