Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 RAM 1500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK IF RELATED DTCS ARE PRESENT 
    1. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Are any Transmission solenoid, line pressure, speed sensor or loss of prime DTCs present?

      Yes 

      • Refer to the DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX  and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure. Perform the test for P0944-LOSS OF PRIME first if it is present.

      No 

      • Go To  2
  2. CHECK THE EVENT DATA 
    1. With the scan tool, read and record the Event Data.
      NOTE:

      Make sure to record all Event Data stored in the scan tool for future reference in this test procedure.

      Does the Event Data display information for DTC P1736?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

      No 

      • Go To  6
  3. CHECK INPUT RPM IN THE EVENT DATA 

    In the Event Data recorded earlier, does the Input RPM read zero?

    Yes 

    • Check the input speed sensor and wiring. and perform test P0716 and diagnose as if the DTC is current. Refer to the DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX  .

    No 

    • Go To  4
  4. CHECK LINE PRESSURE READING 

    In the Event Data recorded earlier, is the line pressure reading more than 10 psi below the desired line pressure?

    Yes 

    • Go To  5

    No 

    • Go To  6
  5. PLUGGED TRANSMISSION OIL FILTER 
    1. Turn the ignition OFF to the LOCK position.
    2. Remove and inspect the Transmission Oil Pan for excessive debris in accordance with the Service Information.
    3. Remove and inspect the Primary Oil Filter in accordance with the Service Information.
      NOTE:

      Make sure the Primary Transmission Oil Filter and/or seal is not cracked or split.

      Does the Oil Pan contain excessive debris and/or is the Primary Oil Filter cracked or plugged?

      Yes 

      • Repair the plugged, cracked, or split Primary Transmission Oil Filter and/or seal. If the Primary Transmission Oil Filter is plugged, refer to the Service Information for the proper hydraulic clutch repair procedure. Refer to REMOVAL .
      • Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE  .

      No 

      • Remove the Transmission Oil Pump in accordance with the Service Information. Check the main Regulator Valve for sticking in its bore, scoring and/or damage and clean and repair as necessary. If no problem is found, replace the Transmission Solenoid/TRS Assembly. Refer to ASSEMBLY, TRANSMISSION SOLENOID AND TRS, REMOVAL .
      • Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE  .
  6. CHECK IF THE DTC P1736 IS CURRENT 
    1. With the scan tool, perform the 2nd Prime Gear Clutch Test. Follow the instructions on the scan tool.
    2. Increase the throttle angle, TPS Degree to 30° for no more than a few seconds.
      CAUTION:

      Do not overheat the transmission.

      NOTE:

      If the 4C clutch is faulty, the overrunning clutch will hold and the slip test will pass. The 2nd Prime Gear Clutch Test will not detect a faulty 4C clutch. However, it will detect a faulty UD clutch.

      Did the clutch test pass, did the Input Speed remain at zero?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7

      No 

      • Go To  9
  7. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT OPERATION 
    1. Check the Shifter adjustment in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Intermittent gear ratio DTCs can set by problems in the Input and Output Speed Sensor circuits and/or Speed Sensor Ground circuit.
    3. Check the Speed Sensor wiring and connectors for good connection, then perform a wiggle test using the Transmission Simulator (special tool #8333B, Simulator, Transmission).

      Were any problems found?

      Yes 

      • Repair as necessary.
      • Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE  .

      No 

      • Go To  8
  8. CHECK FOR SLIPPAGE 
    1. With the scan tool, erase Transmission DTCs.
    2. Road test the vehicle.
    3. During the road test, operate in 4th gear and perform kickdown shifts from 4th to 2nd (prime) gears.

      Is there an obvious slippage noticed in 4th or 2nd prime gears, or runaway on the 4-2 shift?

      Yes 

      • Go To  11

      No 

      • Go To  14
  9. UD CLUTCH HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT 
    1. Remove Transmission Oil Pan and check for excessive debris.

      NOTE:

      The UD clutch passage contains a small bleed orifice and a small amount of air leakage is normal.

      Were any problems found, excessive debris and/or excessive air leakage in the UD clutch hydraulic circuit?

      Yes 

      • Repair as necessary. Check the UD clutch piston seals and the dribbler assembly, reaction shaft support seal rings and the flatness of the pump valve body and pump housing faces. Check main regulator valve for sticking in the bore.
        NOTE:

        If the UD clutch has failed but no obvious cause is found (such as a cut piston seal, broken seal ring, stuck regulator valve or any other items listed above) replace the Transmission Solenoid/TRS Assembly in addition to any necessary internal repairs.
