The pressure control solenoid (PCS) valves 3, 4, 5, and 6, are precision electronic pressure regulators that control the operation of the clutches, the brakes, and the lock-up clutch.
The valve reduces the system pressure with which the downstream solenoid valves and electrical pressure regulating valves are supplied. It is possible to use smaller solenoid valves as a result. The PCS requires a constant input pressure.
No DTC P1873 is set.
| • | The hold lamp will blink. | 
| • | The transmission control module (TCM) will record operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. This information will be stored in the Failure Records buffer. | 
| • | Adopt Emergency/Substitute mode and constant 4th gear. | 
| • | The power supply is cut off to the PCS valve. | 
| • | The hold lamp will turn OFF when the malfunction has not occurred after 3 ignition cycles. | 
| • | A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles without a fault. | 
| • | Using a scan tool can clear history DTCs. | 
When DTC P1874 sets, the possible cause of the fault could be the solenoid valve power supply line.
