Does Not Shift To 5GR Or 6GR: Notes

DOES NOT SHIFT TO 5GR OR 6GR DETECTION CONDITIONS AND POSSIBLE CAUSES (FW6A-EL)

TROUBLESHOOTING ITEM  Does not shift to 5GR or 6GR 
DESCRIPTION 
  • Vehicle does not upshift from 4GR to 5GR or 5GR to 6GR even though vehicle speed is increased.
  • At a vehicle speed range where the transaxle should shift up to 5GR and 6GR gears in D position based on the shift pattern, the transaxle does not shift to 5GR and 6GR gears by gradually releasing the accelerator pedal.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  1. Signal malfunction
    • APP sensor malfunction
    • BARO sensor malfunction
    • CKP sensor malfunction
    • IAT sensor No. 1 malfunction
    • MAF sensor malfunction
  2. Low-G (XY) sensor (built into SAS control module) malfunction
    NOTE:
    • If a tire with a different diameter than the standard tire is installed, the TCM determines that the driving mode is the AAS mode, and may change to a different shift timing from the normal timing.
    • When SPORT mode is selected, a gear lower than NORMAL mode is selected, and the gear is maintained for a longer period of time, (with drive selection switch)
CAUTION:
  • Verify the malfunction symptom according to not only the PID value but also the symptom troubleshooting.
