Diagnostic Aids
Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in 5V TFT signal circuit. Scan tester TFT display should rise steadily to about 212°F (100°C) then stabilize.
Test transmission fluid temperature sensor at various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a skewed (out-of-range) sensor. See TEMPERATURE VS. RESISTANCE VALUES table. A skewed sensor could result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.
