  1. TR_V is the voltage at the PCM pin 64 (TR3A Circuit) to signal return.
  2. "In Between" reading could be caused by a shift cable or digital TR sensor misaligned or a digital TR sensor circuit failure of TR1, TR2, TR3A, or TR4.
  3. TR_D: 1 = Open Digital TR switch, 0= Closed Digital TR switch.
  4. Breakout Box Readings: Taken from PCM signal pins for TR1, TR2, TR3A, TR4 to signal return.
    • Voltages for TR1, TR2, TR4: 
    • 0 = 0.0 volts.
    • 1 = 9.0 - 14.0 volts.
    • Voltage for TR3A: 
    • 0 = 0.0 volts.
    • 1 = 1.3 - 1.8 volts.
    • 1.8 - 5.0 volts = Invalid reading (open in wires or bad resistor in digital TR sensor).
