This function minimizes the loss of the ect functions when a malfunction occurs in a sensor or solenoid.
- Automatic transmission fluid (atf) temperature sensor: when the atf temperature sensor has a malfunction, o/d up-shift is prohibited
- Counter gear speed sensor nc (speed sensor nc): when the counter gear speed sensor has a malfunction, o/d up-shift is prohibited.
