Toyota Camry (XV70): Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Short to Ground (P074011)
DESCRIPTION
Solenoid (SL) valve is turned on and off by signals from the ECM to control the hydraulic pressure acting on the lock-up relay valve, which then controls operation of the lock-up clutch.

Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Short to Ground |
While the vehicle is being driven so that lock-up is not requested, a short to ground is detected in the solenoid (SL) valve circuit (2-trip detection logic). |
| Comes on |
DTC stored | SAE Code: P2769 |
Fail-safe function:
If the ECM detects a malfunction, it turns Solenoid (SL) valve off.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Based on the signals from the throttle position sensor, the air flow meter and the crankshaft position sensor, the ECM sends a signal to solenoid (SL) valve to regulate the hydraulic pressure and provide smoother torque converter engagement. Solenoid (SL) valve responds to commands from the ECM. The valve controls the lock-up relay valve to perform the torque-converter lock-up function. If the ECM detects a short to ground in the solenoid (SL) valve circuit, it will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.

Conditions required for
Inspection
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
CAUTION:
Do not put your hands into the water that has been heated for the inspection.
Touching the heated water could result in burns.
(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
