Is DTC P2721 indicated?


	YES

The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.


	NO

Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals between the CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve and the PCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.?

CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve check:

CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve check

?1.	Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.	Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute. NOTE: This step must be done to protect the PCM from damage.

?3.

Disconnect the following connector.

PCM connector C (51P)

?4.

Measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
Test point 1	PCM connector C (51P) No. 3
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there 5.0?6.3 ??


	YES

The CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or replace the original PCM.?


	NO

Go to step 3.

Shorted wire check ( LCC LS line to power):

Shorted wire check (LCC LS line to power)

?1.

Disconnect the following connector.

Solenoid wire harness A 8P connector

?2.	Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

?3.

Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle ON mode
	Solenoid wire harness A 8P connector : disconnected
	PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
Test point 1	PCM connector C (51P) No. 3
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there voltage?


	YES

Repair a short to power in the LCC LS wire between the solenoid wire harness A 8P connector and the PCM.?


	NO

The LCC LS wire is not shorted to power. Go to step 4.

Open wire check (LCC LS line):

Open wire check (LCC LS line)

?1.

Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	Solenoid wire harness A 8P connector: disconnected
	PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
Test point 1	Solenoid wire harness A 8P connector (female terminals) No. 4 :
Test point 2	PCM connector C (51P) No. 3

Is there continuity?


	YES

Go to step 5.


	NO

Repair an open in the LCC LS wire between the solenoid wire harness A 8P connector and the PCM.?

Open wire check (GND1 line, GND2 line):

Open wire check (GND1 line, GND2 line)

?1.

Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	PCM connector B (51P): disconnected
Test Circuit 1
Test point 1	PCM connector B (51P) No. 11
Test point 2	Body ground
Test Circuit 2
Test point 1	PCM connector B (51P) No. 12
Test point 2	Body ground

Are there continuity?


	YES

Go to step 6.


	NO

Repair an open in GND1 wire and/or GND2 wire between the PCM and body ground (G101), or repair poor body ground (G101).?

CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve internal resistance check:

CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve internal resistance check

?1.	Remove the valve body assembly.

?2.

Disconnect the following connector.

CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector

?3.

Measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	Valve body assembly: removed
	Solenoid wire harness B 6P connector: disconnected
	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector: disconnected
Test point 1	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector (male terminals) No. 1 :
Test point 2	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector (male terminals) No. 2 :

Is there 5.0?6.3 ??


	YES

Go to step 7.


	NO

Faulty CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve. Replace the valve body assembly.?

Open wire check (LCC- line):

Open wire check (LCC- line)

?1.

Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	Valve body assembly: removed
	Solenoid wire harness B 6P connector: disconnected
	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector: disconnected
