Pinpoint Test E: Transmission Fluid Auxiliary Pump Circuit Diagnostics

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Refer to Wiring Diagrams TRANSMISSION CONTROLS - 10R80 for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    The transmission fluid auxiliary pump keeps the transmission fluid circulating and the transmission engaged during auto start-stop events. The transmission fluid auxiliary pump has an internal microprocessor and communicates with the PCM via LIN serial communication.

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    PCM P0C28:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump "A" Motor Current High: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the transmission fluid auxiliary pump communication is OK, but a high current is detected.
    PCM P0C29:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump "A" Driver Circuit Performance: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the transmission fluid auxiliary pump communication is OK, but a high current is detected and the pump speed is out of range.
    PCM P0C2A:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump "A" Motor Stalled: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the PCM commanded the transmission fluid auxiliary pump on but did not detect a corresponding increase in pump speed, indicating a stalled pump motor.
    PCM P2796:00 Electric Transmission Fluid Pump Control Circuit: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the transmission fluid auxiliary pump is not receiving a command signal from the PCM.
    PCM U0287:00 Lost Communication With Transmission Fluid Pump Module "A": No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the PCM did not receive LIN messages from the transmission fluid auxiliary pump for longer than 10 seconds.
