Advanced Diagnostics - DTC P0967: CVT Driven Pulley Pressure Control Valve Circuit High Voltage











General Description
The CVT driven pulley pressure control solenoid valve controls hydraulic pressure to the driven pulley. The spool in the linear solenoid pushes the valve by duty cycle according to the current, and produces hydraulic pressure in proportion to the current. The CVT driven pulley pressure control solenoid valve measures the current that passes through the linear solenoid and uses feedback control to compensate for the difference between the measured current and the commanded one. If the measured current is not equal to the duty cycle command, the powertrain control module (PCM) detects a malfunction (short to power on the plus terminal side of linear solenoid) and stores a DTC.

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and a Pending DTC, a Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data are stored in the PCM memory.

Conditions for clearing the DTC
The MIL is cleared if the malfunction does not return in three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs. The MIL, the Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data can be cleared with the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting the battery.
