PNP Switch Malfunction (MYC 6L80E, MYD 6L90E)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect the range selector lever cable for proper adjustment. Refer to Range Selector Lever Cable Adjustment .
- Ignition OFF. Disconnect the 16-way harness connector from the transmission.
- Ignition ON. Measure voltage on the park/neutral signal circuit terminal 3 with a DMM. Verify that there is greater than 10 V on the park/neutral signal circuit.
- If less than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition OFF, reconnect the 16-way harness connector to the transmission.
- Remove the automatic transmission fluid pan. Refer to Automatic Transmission Fluid, Fluid Pan and/or Filter Replacement .
- Disconnect the manual shift shaft position switch connector at the control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Manual Shift Shaft Position Switch Replacement .
- Ignition ON, verify that the scan tool PNP Switch parameter displays In Gear.
- If not the specified value, replace the ECM.
- Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the park/neutral signal terminal F at the control solenoid valve assembly and ground. The scan tool PNP Switch parameter should display Park/Neutral when the terminal is connected to ground.
- If not the specified value, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the manual shift shaft position switch.
