DTC P1772 LOW COAST BRAKE SOLENOID VALVEPFP:31940
DescriptionNCS0006O
Low coast brake solenoid valve is turned ON or OFF by the TCM in response to signals sent from the PNP
switch, vehicle speed sensor and accelerator pedal position sensor (throttle position sensor). Gears will then
be shifted to the optimum position.
CONSULT-III Reference ValueNCS0006P
On Board Diagnosis LogicNCS0006Q

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “P1772 LC/B SOLENOID/CIRC” with CONSULT-III or 7th judgment flicker without
CONSULT-III is detected when TCM detects an improper voltage drop when it tries to operate the sole-
noid valve.
Possible CauseNCS0006R

Harness or connectors
(Solenoid circuit is open or shorted.)

DTC P1774 LOW COAST BRAKE SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTIONPFP:31940
DescriptionNCS0006U

Low coast brake solenoid valve is turned ON or OFF by the TCM in response to signals sent from the
PNP switch, vehicle speed sensor and accelerator pedal position sensor (throttle position sensor). Gears
will then be shifted to the optimum position.

This is not only caused by electrical malfunction (circuits open or shorted) but also by mechanical mal-
function such as control valve sticking, improper solenoid valve operation.
CONSULT-III Reference ValueNCS0006V
On Board Diagnosis LogicNCS0006W

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “P1774 LC/B SOLENOID FNCT” with CONSULT-III or 7th judgment flicker with-
out CONSULT-III is detected under the following conditions.
–When TCM detects that actual gear ratio is irregular, and relation between gear position and condition of
ATF pressure switch 2 is irregular during depressing accelerator pedal (Other than during shift change)
–When TCM detects that relation between gear position and condition of ATF pressure switch 2 is irregular
during releasing accelerator pedal (Other than during shift change)
Possible CauseNCS0006X

Harness or connectors
(The solenoid and switch circuits are open or shorted.)
