  1. 1)  DETERMINING IF RELATED DTCS ARE PRESENT 

    With the scan tool, check for other Transmission DTCs.

    Is the DTC P0841 present also? 

    Yes 

    1. Perform appropriate DTC test(s) in this article.

    No 

    1. Go To step  2).
  2. 2)  CHECK TO SEE IF DTC P1775 IS CURRENT 

    With the scan tool, check the STARTS SINCE SET counter for P1775.

    NOTE: This counter only applies to the last DTC set.

    Is the STARTS SINCE SET counter 2 or less? 

    Yes 

    1. Go To step  3).

    No 

    1. Go To step  9).
  3. 3)  PCM AND WIRING 

    Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

    Remove the Starter Relay.

    CAUTION: Removal of the Starter Relay is to prevent a Transmission, NO RESPONSE, condition and disable the starter.

    Install the Transmission Simulator, Miller tool #8333 and the Electronic Transmission Adapter kit 8333-1A.

    Ignition on, engine not running.

    With the Transmission Simulator, turn the Pressure Switch selector switch to LR.

    With the scan tool, monitor the LR Pressure Switch State while pressing the Pressure Switch Test button.

    Did the Pressure Switch state change from open to closed when the test button was pressed? 

    Yes 

    1. Go To step  4).

    No 

    1. Go To step  5).
  4. 4)  INTERNAL TRANSMISSION 

    If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair. 

    Repair 

    1. Repair internal transmission as necessary per the Service Information. Inspect the Solenoid Switch Valve per the Service Information and repair or replace as necessary. If no problems are found, replace the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  
  5. 5)  (T16) TRANSMISSION CONTROL RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN

    Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

    Disconnect the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.

    Remove the Transmission Control Relay.

    Connect a jumper wire between the (A104) Fused B+ circuit and the (T16) Transmission Control Relay Output circuit.

    NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
    CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller Special Tool #8815 to perform diagnosis.

    Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector.

    Remove the Starter Relay.

    Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check all (T16) Transmission Control Relay Output circuits in the appropriate terminals of special tool #8815.

    NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

    Does the test light illuminate brightly on all Transmission Control Relay Output circuits? 

    Yes 

    1. Go To step  6).

    No 

    1. Repair the (T16) Transmission Control Relay Output circuit for an open.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  
  6. 6)  (T50) LR PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT OPEN 
    Fig 2: Checking L/R Pressure Switch Sense Circuit For Open
    GC0012669Courtesy of DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORP.

    Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

    Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector.

    Disconnect the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.

    NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
    CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller Special Tool #8815 to perform diagnosis.

    Measure the resistance of the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit from the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815 to the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.

    Is the resistance above 5.0 ohms? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit for an open.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  

    No 

    1. Go To step  7).
  7. 7)  (T50) LR PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND 
    Fig 3: Checking L/R Pressure Switch Sense Circuit For Short To Ground
    GC0012670Courtesy of DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORP.

    Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

    Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector.

    Disconnect the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.

    NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

    Measure the resistance between ground and the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit.

    Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit for a short to ground.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  

    No 

    1. Go To step  8).
  8. 8)  (T50) LR PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    Fig 4: Checking L/R Pressure Switch Sense Circuit For Short To Voltage
    GC0012671Courtesy of DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORP.

    Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

    Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector.

    Disconnect the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.

    Remove the Transmission Control Relay.

    NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

    Connect a jumper wire between the (Internal) Fused B+ circuit and (T16) Transmission Control Relay Output circuit in the Transmission Control Relay connector.

    Ignition on, engine not running.

    Measure the voltage of the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit.

    Is the voltage above 0.5 volts? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the (T50) LR Pressure Switch Sense circuit for a short to voltage.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  

    No 

    1. Using the schematics as a guide, check the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to all power and ground circuits. If no problems are found, replace the PCM per the Service Information. With the scan tool PERFORM QUICK LEARN, then program Pinion Factor in the Front Control Module. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE - REMOVAL)
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  
  9. 9)  INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS 

    The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.

    Test drive and verify if the transmission is launching in 2nd gear and/or no TCC engagement.

    With the scan tool, check the EATX DTC EVENT DATA to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.

    Are there 2nd gear launches and/or no TCC engagement? 

    Yes 

    1. Disassemble and inspect the Valve Body per the Service Information and repair or replace as necessary. If no problems are found in the Valve Body, replace the Transmission Solenoid Pressure Switch Assembly.
    2. Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1  

    No
