NOTE:
• Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review General Troubleshooting Information (see page 14-5).
• This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.
1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
2. Check that DTC P0971 recurs.
Go to step 6.
Go to step 3.
3. Choose Clutch Pressure Control (Linear) Solenoid C in the Miscellaneous Test Menu, and test A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C with the HDS.
Go to step 4.
Go to step 6.
4. Choose Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control in the Miscellaneous Test Menu, and command A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C at 0.2 A with the HDS.
5. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0971 in the DTCs/
Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
Go to step 6.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections and loose terminals at A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C and the PCM. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 3 and recheck.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Disconnect the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C connector.
control solenoid valve C connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2.
Go to step 9.
Replace A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C (see page 14-245), then go to step 14.
9. Check for continuity between A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Go to step 10.
Repair open in the wire between A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C and ground (G101), or repair poor ground (G101), then go to step 10.

software (see page 14-9), or substitute a known-good PCM (see page 14-10).
11. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the D position through all five gears.
12. Check for DTC(s) in the DTCs/Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu with the HDS.
If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see page 14-10), then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1.
If DTC P0971 is not indicated, or if any other DTCs are indicated, go to step 13.
13. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0971 in the DTCs/
Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM; R20A1 and R20A2 engine models (see page 11-226), K24Z1 engine model (see page 11-613). If any other DTCs were indicated on step 12, go to the indicated DTC’s troubleshooting.
If the HDS indicates FAILED, check for poor connections and loose terminals at A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see page 14-10), then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
14. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
15. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the D position through all five gears.
16. Check for DTC(s) in the DTCs/Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu with the HDS.
Check for poor connections and loose terminals at A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C and the PCM, then go to step 1.
If DTC P0971 is not indicated, or if any other DTCs are indicated, go to step 17.
17. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0971 in the DTCs/
Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other DTCs were indicated on step 16, go to the indicated DTC’s troubleshooting.
If the HDS indicates FAILED, check for poor connections and loose terminals at A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve C and the PCM, then go to step 1. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 15 and recheck.

1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
2. Start the engine, and shift to the D position.
3. Check that DTC P0973 recurs.
Go to step 7.
Go to step 4.
4. Choose Shift Solenoid A in the Miscellaneous Test Menu, and test shift solenoid valve A with the HDS.
Go to step 5.
Go to step 7.
5. Start the engine, and shift to the D position.
6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0973 in the DTCs/
