DTC Troubleshooting: P1898 (100)

DTC P1898:

CVT Drive Pulley Pressure Control Valve Stuck ON or CVT Driven Pulley Pressure Control Valve Stuck OFF

NOTE:

- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot with the HDS, and review General Troubleshooting Information How To Troubleshoot The CVT System.
- Keep replacement solenoid valves on hand: the CVT drive pulley pressure control solenoid valve and the CVT driven pulley pressure control solenoid valve set.

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

2. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Are any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs indicated simultaneously with DTC P1898?

YES -

Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting, and recheck.

5. Check the IMA battery level gauge in the gauge control module (tach).

Does the IMA battery level gauge indicate more than 4 segments?

YES -

Go to step 6.

NO -

Run the engine with the shift lever in P, at 3,500 rpm until the IMA battery level gauge indicates at least 4 segments, then go to step 6.

6. Shift the shift lever to D while pressing the brake pedal, and wait for 5 seconds.

7. Accelerate from a stop until the vehicle speed reaches 40-50 mph (65-80 km/h), and test-drive the vehicle on a flat road for at least 15 seconds. Do not release the accelerator during the test-drive.

Is DTC P1898 indicated?

YES -

Replace the CVT drive pulley pressure control solenoid valve CVT Drive Pulley Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Replacement and the CVT driven pulley pressure control solenoid valve CVT Driven Pulley Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Replacement, then go to step 10.

NO -

Go to step 6, and repeat the test-drive. If the HDS does not indicate a DTC after the test-drive has been done four times, the problem was an intermittent failure; the system is OK at this time.
