Toyota Sienna Service Manual: Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The shift solenoid valve DSL is turned "ON" and "OFF" by signals from the ECM
in order to control the
hydraulic pressure operation, the lock-up relay valve, which then controls
operation of the lock-up clutch.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Torque converter lock-up is controlled by the ECM based on engine rpm, engine load, engine temperature, vehicle speed, transmission temperature, and shift range selection. The ECM determines the lock-up status of the torque converter by comparing the engine rpm (NE) to the input turbine rpm (NT).
The ECM calculates the actual transmission gear by comparing input turbine rpm (NT) to counter gear rpm (NC). When conditions are appropriate, the ECM requests "lock-up" by applying control voltage to the shift solenoid DSL. When the DSL is opened, it applies pressure to the lock-up relay valve and locks the torque converter clutch. If the ECM detects an open or short in the DSL solenoid circuit, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the DSL solenoid or circuit. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (DSL)
(a) Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transaxle.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
2 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)
(a) Connect the transmission wire connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

REPLACE ECM
3 INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE DSL
(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve DSL.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid body.
OK: The solenoid valve makes an operating sound.

1. REMOVE FRONT WHEELS
2. REMOVE FRONT STABILIZER LINK ASSEMBLY LH
(a) Remove the 2 nuts and front stabilizer link assembly
LH.
HINT:
If the ball joint turns together with the nut, use a
hexagon (6 mm) wrench to hold the stud.

Data list / active test
1. READ DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows
the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and
other items to be read without removing any parts. This
non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because
intermittent conditions or signals may be disco ...
Route cannot be Calculated
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK MAP DISC
Check that the map disc is not deformed or cracked.
OK:
No deformations or cracks on map disc.
2 SET DESTINATION
Set another destination and check if the system can
calculate the route correctly.
OK:
Route can be correctly calculated.
NO ...
