Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Cadillac STS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The TAP Shift system allows the driver to manually shift gears by using the TAP Shift switches located on the automatic transmission shifter. Pushing the Up switch will command an upshift and pushing the Down switch will command a downshift. The TAP Shift system is activated when the gear selector is in the manual, M, position and is deactivated in all other positions.

If the transmission control module (TCM) detects the downshift circuit active for an extended period of time, then DTC P0816 sets. DTC P0816 is a type C DTC.
