Check for proper terminal connection to solenoid connector.
Check resistance of each solenoid valve and its circuit.
If faulty condition is found, replace CVT assembly.

Line pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [A]

Between line pressure control solenoid valve terminal "8" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 Ω at 20 ° C (68 °F)

Secondary pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [B]

Between secondary pressure control solenoid valve terminal "7" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 Ω at 20 °C (68 °F)

TCC solenoid valve resistance: [C]

Between TCC solenoid valve terminal "6" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 Ω at 20 °C (68 °F)

Lock-up/select switching solenoid valve resistance: [D]

Between Lock-up/select switching solenoid valve terminal "5" and CVT case: 17 - 38 Ω at 20 °C (68 °F)
