DTC Troubleshooting (cont’d)
Problem in Shift Control System:
 Shift Solenoid Valve D Stuck ON
 Shift Valve D Stuck
 A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve C Stuck
OFF
NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data
and any on-board snapshot with the HDS, and review
General Troubleshooting Information (see page 14-3).
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).
2. Make sure that the transmission is filled to the proper level, and check for fluid leaks.
3. Drain the ATF (see step 3 on page 14-232) through a strainer. Inspect the strainer for metal debris or
excessive clutch material.
Replace the transmission, then go to step 14.
Replace the ATF (see page 14-232), then go to
step 4.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
5. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
6. Test-drive the vehicle with the shift lever in D, and let the transmission shift through all five gears.
7. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P1733 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Go to step 8.
If the HDS indicates PASSED, intermittent
failure, the system is OK at this time. If the HDS
indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 6.
8. Clear the DTC with the HDS. 9. Select Shift Solenoid Valve D in the Miscellaneous
Test Menu, and check it operates with the HDS.
Go to step 10.
Replace shift solenoid valve D (see page
14-217), then go to step 14.
10. Select Clutch Pressure Control (Linear) Solenoid Valve C in the Miscellaneous Test Menu, and test
A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C with
the HDS.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this
time.
Follow the instructions indicated on the HDS
according to the test result, but if the HDS has not
determined the cause of the failure, go to step 11. If
any part was replaced, go to step 12.
11. Inspect A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C (see page 14-224).
Repair the hydraulic system related with shift
valve D, or replace the transmission, then go to
step 14.
Replace A/T clutch pressure control
solenoid valve C (see page 14-226), then go to step
12.

1. Apply the parking brake, and block both rear
wheels.
2. Start the engine, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).
3. Shift to D while pressing the brake pedal. Press the accelerator pedal, and release it suddenly. The
engine should not stall.
4. Repeat step 3 in all shift lever positions.
5. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver’s side of the dashboard.
6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and go to the A/T Data List. Make sure the HDS communicates with
the PCM. If it does not, go to the DLC circuit
troubleshooting (see page 11- 204).7. Prepare the HDS to take a HIGH SPEED SNAPSHOT
(refer to the HDS user guide for more details if
needed):
 Select High Speed icon.
 Select these parameters: – Vehicle Speed
– Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed (rpm)
– Input Shaft (Mainshaft) Speed (rpm)
– Engine Speed
– APP Sensor A (V)
– ATF Temp Sensor (V)
– Battery Voltage
– Shift Control
– Brake Switch
 Set the Trigger Type to Parameter.
 Adjust the Parameter setting to APP Sensor A above 1.2 V.
 Set the recording time to 60 seconds.
 Set the Trigger point to 30 seconds.
8. Find a suitable level road. When you are ready to do the test, press OK on the HDS.
9. Monitor the HDS and accelerate quickly until the APP Sensor A reads 1.3 V. Maintain a steady
throttle until the transmission shifts to 5th gear,
then slow the vehicle and come to a stop.
10. Save the snapshot if the entire event was recorded or increase the recording time setting as necessary
and repeat step 9.
11. Adjust the Parameter setting to 2.4 V. Retest-drive the vehicle. While monitoring the HDS, accelerate
quickly until the APP Sensor A reads 2.5 V.
Maintain a steady throttle until the transmission
shifts to 5th gear (or reasonable speed), then slow
the vehicle and come to a stop.
12. Save the snapshot if the entire event was recorded or increase the recording time setting as necessary
and repeat step 11.
13. Accelerate quickly until the accelerator pedal is to the floor. Maintain a steady pedal until the
transmission shifts to 3rd gear, then slow to a stop,
and save the snapshot.

1. Make sure the transmission fluid is filled to the
proper level (see page 14-231).
2. Apply the parking brake, and block all four wheels.
3. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver’s side of the dashboard.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and go to the A/T Data List. Make sure the HDS communicates with
the PCM. If it does not, go to the DLC circuit
troubleshooting (see page 11- 204).
5. Make sure the A/C switch is OFF.
6. Start the engine, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).
7. Shift to D while pressing the brake pedal firmly, then fully press the accelerator pedal for
6 to 8 seconds, and note the engine speed. Do not
move the shift lever or remove your foot off the
brake pedal while raising the engine speed.
8. Allow 2 minutes for cooling, then repeat the test in SandR.
NOTE: Do not test the stall speed for more than 10 seconds at a time.
 The stall speed tests should be used for diagnostic purposes only.
 Stall speed test results should be the same with the shift lever in D, S, and R.
 Do not test the stall speed with the A/T oil pressure gauges installed. 9. If the stall speeds are out of the service limit, the
problems and probable causes are listed in the
table.

NOTE:
 Disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF switch (if equipped).
 VSA DTC(s) may come on during the pressure test. If the VSA(s) come on, clear the DTC(s) with the HDS.
1. Make sure the transmission fluid is filled to the proper level (see page 14-231).
2. Raise the vehicle on a lift, or apply the parking brake, block rear wheels, and raise the front of the
vehicle. Make sure it is securely supported.
3. Remove the splash shield.
4. Allow the front wheels to rotate freely.
5. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver’s side of the dashboard.
6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Make sure the HDS communicates with the PCM. If it does not, go
to the DLC circuit troubleshooting (see page
11-204). 7. Connect the A/T oil pressure gauge to the line
pressure inspection port (A). Do not allow dust or
other foreign particles to enter the ports while
connecting the gauges.
8. Start the engine, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).
9. Measure the line pressure at the line pressure inspection port with the shift lever in P or N while
holding the engine speed at 2,000 rpm.
NOTE: Higher pressure may be indicated if
measurements are made in shift lever position
other than P or N.

10. Turn the engine off, then disconnect the A/T oil pressure gauge from the line pressure inspection
port.
11. Install the sealing bolt to the line pressure inspection port with a new sealing washer, and
tighten the bolt to 18 N·m (1.8 kgf·m, 13 lbf·ft). Do
not reuse the old sealing washer.

ATF
NOTE: Keep all foreign particles out of the transmission. 1. Park the vehicle on the level ground.
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on), and turn
the engine off. Do not allow the engine to warm up
more than two cycles of the cooling fan.
NOTE: Check the ATF level within 60 90 seconds
after turning the engine off. Higher ATF level may
be indicated if the radiator fan comes on twice or
more.
3. Remove the ATF dipstick (yellow loop) (A), and wipe it with a clean cloth.
4. Insert the dipstick into the transmission.
5. Remove the dipstick and check the ATF level. It should be between the upper mark (A) and the
lower mark (B). 6. If the ATF level is below the lower mark, check for
fluid leaks at the transmission, the hoses, and the
line joints. If a problem is found, fix it before f illing
the transmission with ATF.
NOTE: If the vehicle is driven when the ATF level is
below the lower mark, one or more of these
symptoms may occur:  The transmission damage.
 The vehicle may not move in any gear.
 The vehicle may accelerates poorly, and flares when starting off in D, S, and R.
 Vibration when the engine is idling.
7. If the ATF level is above the upper mark, drain the
ATF to proper level (see step 3 on page 14-232).
NOTE: If the vehicle is driven when the ATF level is
above the upper mark, the vehicle may creep
forward while in N, or have problems shifting.
8. If necessary, fill the transmission with ATF through the dipstick hole to bring the fluid level to midway
between the upper mark and the lower mark of the
dipstick. Do not fill the fluid above the upper mark.
Always use genuine Acura ATF-Z1 automatic
transmission fluid (ATF). Using a non-Acura ATF
can affect shift quality.
9. Insert the dipstick back into the transmission with the letters ‘‘ATF’’ pointing toward the front of the
vehicle.

minder did not require you to replace the ATF, go
to step 9.
9. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver’s side of the dashboard.
