DTC P011B Engine Coolant Temperature / Intake Air Temperature
Correlation
DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates the difference between the readings of the coolant
temperature sensor and intake air
temperature sensor. If the difference is greater than 20C (68F), the ECM will
judge this as a malfunct ...

Solenoid Valve SL1)
DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with "ON" and "OFF"
operation of the shift solenoid
valves SL1, SL2, SL3, S4 and SR which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or
short circuit occurs in
either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM cont ...

HINT:
When entering signal check mode, the tire pressure
warning ECU sets all the signal check DTCs first.
After completing signal check for each inspection
item, the DTCs for systems that are determined to be
normal by the tire pressure warning ECU will be
erased.
The DTCs f ...
