DTC P2730: Pressure Control Solenoid "E" Control Circuit High: Notes

DTC detecting condition:

Immediately at fault recognition

Trouble symptom:

Engine speed increases abruptly, and cannot start.
Engine speed increases abruptly during driving.

CAUTION:

Use CHECK BOARD when measuring the TCM terminal voltage and resistance.
After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform the last step of the basic diagnostic procedure. Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE .

CHECK SECONDARY SOLENOID (WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD: ATF TEMPERATURE APPROX. 20°C) .
1. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, check that [ATF Temp.] in [Data Monitor] of [Transmission] is 20°C. Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)>DATA MONITOR .
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. Disconnect the TCM connector.
4. Measure the resistance between TCM connector and transmission body.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B67) No. 46 - Transmission body:
Is the resistance approximately 3.3 - 7.3 Ω?

Yes: Go to 2.

No: Go to 3.
CHECK SECONDARY SOLENOID (WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARMED-UP: ATF TEMPERATURE 80°C OR MORE) .
1. Connect the TCM connector.
2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, warm up the engine until [ATF Temp.] in [Data Monitor] of [Transmission] reaches 80°C or more. Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)>DATA MONITOR .
3. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
4. Disconnect the TCM connector.
5. Measure the resistance between TCM connector and transmission body.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B67) No. 46 - Transmission body:
NOTE: The resistance value increases as the temperature increases.

Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

Yes: Go to 3.

No: Check for poor contact of connector, and if no fault is found, replace the TCM. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR690)>TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) .
CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT) .
1. Disconnect the transmission connector. (E34, T1)
2. Measure the resistance between TCM connector and transmission connectors.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B67) No. 46 - (E34) No. 10:
Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes: Go to 4.

No: Repair or replace the harness.
CHECK HARNESS (SHORT CIRCUIT TO POWER SUPPLY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Measure the voltage between TCM connector and chassis ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B67) No. 46 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
Is the voltage approx. 0 V?

Yes: Go to 5.

No: Repair or replace the harness.
CHECK HARNESS INSIDE TRANSMISSION .
CAUTION: Start work after ATF cools down.
1. Remove the transmission oil pan.
2. Check for the harness pinch, damage.
Is the check result OK?

Yes: Go to 6.

No: Repair or replace the harness.
CHECK TRANSMISSION HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT) .
1. Disconnect the control valve body connector.
2. Measure the resistance between transmission connector and control valve body connector.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (T1) No. 10 - (T11) No. 4:
Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes: Go to 7.

No: Repair or replace the harness.
CHECK TRANSMISSION HARNESS (SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Measure the voltage between transmission connector and transmission body.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (T1) No. 10 (+) - Transmission body (-):
Is the voltage approx. 0 V?

Yes: Replace the control valve body. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR690)>CONTROL VALVE BODY .

No: Repair or replace the harness.
