Diagnostic Aids
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Buick Cascada, 2018 Buick Cascada, and 2017 Buick Cascada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A high resistance in the signal circuit may not set a DTC. Symptoms could include an inoperative manual mode Tap Up/Down, or a Tap Down shift when the Tap/Up button is pressed.
If ignition voltage is not present at the shift selector lever, it will not cause a DTC to set, but will result in an inoperative manual mode Tap Up/Down.
