Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit Description
Transaxle line pressure is modified by TCM through Pressure Control Solenoid (PCS) to control gear shift execution time and shift consistency. TCM monitors various inputs and modifies shift execution and timing by applying a calculated duty cycle to PCS. TCM alters shifting based on driving habits, transaxle load and internal transaxle condition. DTC P1811 will set when TCM detects long shifts that cannot be shortened by shift adapts twice during same ignition cycle.
