DTC P0740 TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID VALVEPFP:31940
DescriptionNCS001CV

The torque converter clutch solenoid valve is activated, with the gear in D5 , M3, M4 and M5 by the TCM
in response to signals sent from the vehicle speed sensor and accelerator pedal position sensor (throttle
position sensor). Torque converter clutch piston operation will then be controlled.

Lock-up operation, however, is prohibited when A/T fluid temperature is too low.

When the accelerator pedal is depressed (less than 1.0/8) in lock-up condition, the engine speed should
not change abruptly. If there is a big jump in engine speed, there is no lock-up.
CONSULT-II Reference ValueNCS001CW
On Board Diagnosis LogicNCS001CX

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “P0740 TCC SOLENOID/CIRC” with CONSULT-II or 3rd judgement flicker with-
out CONSULT-II is detected under the following conditions.
–When TCM detects an improper voltage drop when it tries to operate the solenoid valve.
–When TCM detects as irregular by comparing target value with monitor value.
Possible CauseNCS001CY

Torque converter clutch solenoid valve

Harness or connectors
(Solenoid circuit is open or shorted.)
DTC Confirmation ProcedureNCS001CZ
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
