Here is the solenoid in question from the avalon wiring diagram:
Noting the numbers on the solenoid, the service hint area says that 1,2,6 should be grounded each with a resistance of 11-15 ohms.
So I connected 4 resistors. One for each shown in the picture. so 6, 3, 2 I connected one end of the resistor and the other end I grounded. for 1 and 4, I connected a resistor in between the two connections.
I used 15 ohm 25W resistors for all 4. Solenoid 1 which is the pink wire(3) didnt like that resistance so I did some rearranging and obtained 11.2ohms and the code went away.
However, I can't seem to get rid of this P1765. From various lists I get that this code refers to:
Linear Solenoid for Accumulator Pressure Control Circuit Malfunction
or
Defective Shift Solenoid Valve SLN, an open or a short in the shift solenoid valve SLN circuit or PCM malfunction
or
Trans 12 Volt Supply Relay Control Circuit
so this has to do with that number 4 solenoid circuit given that the second description mentions SLN and the number 4 solenoid connects to SLN+ and SLN- on the ECU.
busting out the multimeter I found that the SLN- connection is grounded and has a resistance of about 11.4ohms.
I also found out that if i directly connected SLN+ to SLN- the code would go away untill about 30 seconds into a driving interval and then pop up. So then I thought well maybe I could connect the two wires and then ground that connection since the service hint mentioned that SLN+ needed to be grounded. no luck. it still comes on about 30 seconds into driving the car.
So thats where I am at now. I've exhausted every idea I can come up with at this point.
