NO. 8 DOES NOT SHIFT TO 5GR (FS5A-EL) DESCRIPTION AND POSSIBLE CAUSE

8 Does not shift to 5GR
DESCRIPTION
  • Vehicle does not upshift from 4GR to 5GR even though vehicle speed is increased.
  • Vehicle does not shift to 5GR even though accelerator pedal is released in D position at 60 km/h {37 mph}.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
  • Basically, TCC does not operate when the fail-safe is operating. Verify the DTCs first. If the TCC operates when driving at high speeds only, the malfunction (improper adjustment) is in the TR switch circuit.
    CAUTION:
    • If the TCC is stuck, inspect it. In addition, inspect the oil cooler for foreign particles which may have mixed in with the ATF.
