Output State Control Enabling Criteria
Retrieve CMDTCs and carry out the KOEO and KOER on-demand self tests before using output state control. Any DTCs related to the TR sensor, TSS sensor or OSS sensor must be fixed or the PCM will not allow output state control to operate.
SSA_AMP#, SSB_AMP#, SSC_AMP#, SSD_AMP#, SSE#, TCC_AMP#
Current to individual shift solenoids can be commanded when carrying out an electrical circuit check. To enable OSC, the following conditions must be met:
- TR must be either PARK or NEUTRAL
- KOEO or KOER with the engine at idle (APP1 = 0%)
LINE_DSD#
Line pressure in the transmission can be commanded higher or lower while monitoring the actual line pressure on a gauge. To enable OSC, the following conditions must be met:
- TR must be either PARK or NEUTRAL
- KOER with engine at idle (APP1 = 0%)
GEAR_OSC#
Individual gears can be commanded by using GEAR_OSC# while road testing the vehicle. The functionality is similar to using the Select Shift +/- button on vehicles equipped with Select Shift. The PCM/TCM will not command certain gears if the engine speed/vehicle speed combination could result in engine damage. To enable OSC, the following conditions must be met
- TR must be in DRIVE
- Engine RPM greater than 1200
TCC_OSC#
Some vehicle concerns may be more pronounced when the torque converter clutch is applied or released. For example, minor cylinder misfires may not be felt during a road test until the additional load of the torque converter clutch is applied. To enable OSC, the following conditions must be met:
- TR must be in DRIVE
- Engine RPM greater than 1200
- GEAR equal to 3, 4, 5, or 6
- VSS greater than 2 MPH
- FTBRAKE = OFF
- TFT between 60 deg.-240 deg. F
HRSH_SHFT#
Some transmission concerns may be identified by temporarily commanding firm shifts. To enable OSC, the following conditions must be met:
- TR must be in DRIVE
- Engine RPM greater than 1200
