CVT Start Clutch Pressure Control Valve Solenoid Test

CVT Start Clutch Pressure Control Valve Solenoid Test
1. Remove the air cleaner housing and intake air duct.





2. Disconnect the solenoid harness connector.
3. Measure the CVT start clutch pressure control valve solenoid resistance between solenoid harness connector terminals No. 4 and No. 8.
Standard: 3.8 - 6.8 Ohms
4. Connect the battery positive terminal to solenoid harness connector terminal No. 4, and connect the battery negative terminal to terminal No. 8. A clicking sound should be heard.
5. If the test results are different from standard, remove the lower valve body.
6. If the resistance is out of standard, check for an open or a short in the solenoid harness. If the wires are OK, replace the CVT start clutch pressure control valve.
7. If no sound is heard, remove the CVT start clutch pressure control valve, and clean it, then recheck. Replace the CVT start clutch pressure control valve if a problem recurs.
