- Yes
: For DTCs P0750 and P0753, GO to A2.
For DTC P0973, GO to A4.
For DTC P0974, GO to A6.
- No : GO to SYMPTOM CHART .
- A2 CHECK THE SSA CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Transmission Vehicle Harness C168.
- Disconnect: PCM C175T.
- Inspect the connectors for damaged or pushed out terminals, corrosion, loose wires and missing or damaged seals.
- Measure the resistance
between:
Positive Lead Negative Lead Pin Circuit Pin Circuit C168-13 CET05 (BU/GN) C175T-45 CET05 (BU/GN) - Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : GO to A3.
- No : REPAIR the circuit. CLEAR the DTCs.
- A3 CHECK THE SSA FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the component side resistance
between:
Positive Lead Negative Lead Pin Circuit Pin Circuit 13 - 15 - - Is the resistance between 4.0 and 7.2 ohms?
- Yes : INSTALL a new PCM. REFER to ENGINE CONTROLS - ELECTRONIC ENGINE CONTROLS . PROGRAM the PCM with the latest calibration level. PERFORM the SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DATA DOWNLOAD procedure. REFER to SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DOWNLOAD . PERFORM the SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DRIVE CYCLE , REFER to SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DRIVE CYCLE .
- No : REMOVE the main control cover. REFER to MAIN CONTROL COVER . INSPECT the solenoid body for metal shavings on the exposed metal contacts or other components. CLEAN the solenoid body and RECHECK the resistance value. If the resistance value is out of specification and a short to ground is not found, INSTALL a new solenoid body assembly. REFER to SOLENOID BODY ASSEMBLY . PERFORM the SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DATA DOWNLOAD procedure. REFER to SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DOWNLOAD . PERFORM the SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DRIVE CYCLE , REFER to SOLENOID BODY STRATEGY DRIVE CYCLE .
- Measure the component side resistance
between:
