  1. I1 ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS 
    • Select PARK.
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Check to make sure the transmission vehicle harness C1385, Output Shaft Speed (OSS) C1107, Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS)/Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor C1387 and C1148 are fully seated, terminals are fully engaged in the connector and are in good condition before proceeding.
    • Connect the diagnostic tool.
    • Key in ON position.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the diagnostic tool: PID List
    • Select and monitor the appropriate PID for the suspected sensor(s): Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS), Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor or Output Shaft Speed (OSS) sensor.
      PID Description Value
      ISS_SRC Raw intermediate shaft speed signal RPM
      OSS_SRC Raw OSS signal RPM
      TSS_SRC Raw TSS signal RPM
    • Can you select and monitor the appropriate sensor(s)? 
    1. YES  : Continue to monitor the suspect sensor(s). Go to  I2.
    2. NO  : REPEAT procedure to enter PID. If you cannot monitor the sensor(s) using the diagnostic equipment, REFER to the appropriate Engine Performance article for diagnosis of the PCM.
  2. I2 DRIVE CYCLE TEST 
    • While monitoring the appropriate sensor PID, drive the vehicle so that the transmission upshifts and downshifts through all gears.
    • Does the TSS, intermediate shaft speed sensor or OSS PID increase and decrease with engine and vehicle speed? 
    1. YES  : Go to  I3.
    2. NO  : If the TSS, intermediate shaft speed sensor or OSS PID does not increase and decrease with engine and vehicle speed, the issue may be found with the vehicle harness, PCM, sensor or internal hardware. Go to  I4 .
  3. I3 DRIVE CYCLE TEST ERRATIC 
    • While monitoring the appropriate sensor PID, drive the vehicle so that the transmission upshifts and downshifts through all gears.
    • Is the TSS, intermediate shaft speed sensor or OSS speed PID signal erratic (drop to zero or near zero and return to normal operation)? 
    1. YES  : If the sensor signal is erratic, there may be an intermittent concern in the vehicle harness sensor or connector. Go to  I4 .
    2. NO  : CLEAR the DTCs. RERUN On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Test.
  4. I4 CHECK FOR SENSOR BATTERY VOLTAGE 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: OSS sensor C1107
    • Disconnect: TSS/Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor C1387
    • Inspect for damaged or pushed-out pins, corrosion or loose wires.
    • Key in ON position.

  5. I5 CHECK THE TRANSMISSION VEHICLE HARNESS CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN 
    • Disconnect: PCM C1381T
    • Disconnect: Transmission Vehicle Harness C1385
    • For TSS/Intermediate shaft speed sensor, measure the resistance between the speed sensor C1387 and PCM C1381T using the following chart.
