The purpose of this test is to provide a simulated input/output speed sensor (ISS/OSS) signal to the control solenoid valve assembly ISS/OSS input circuits.

Transmission Input Speed Sensor

Ignition OFF, connect the DT-47825-10 jumper harnessbetween the vehicle wire harness electrical connector, and the control solenoid valve assembly electrical connector.
Disconnect the ISS/OSS wiring harness connector X3 (1) from the control solenoid valve assembly.
Ignition ON, test for 8.3-9.3 volts between the ISS/OSS voltage circuit terminal B on the control solenoid valve assembly and ground at the transmission case.
- If not within the specified range, replace the control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement .
Using the J 35616 terminal test kit, connect the J 38522 variable signal generatorred lead to the ISS signal circuit terminal A on the TCM.
Connect the black lead from the J 38522 variable signal generatorto ground at the transmission case.
Set the J 38522 variable signal generatorto 5 volts, the frequency to 300, and the percent duty cycle to 50 or the normal position.
Ignition ON, verify with a scan tool the Transmission ISS parameter is between 760-785 RPM.
- If not within the specified range, replace the control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement .

Transmission Output Speed Sensor

Ignition OFF, connect the DT-47825-10 jumper harnessbetween the vehicle wire harness electrical connector, and the control solenoid valve assembly electrical connector.
Disconnect the ISS/OSS wiring harness connector X3 (1) from the control solenoid valve assembly.
Ignition ON, test for 8.3-9.3 volts between the ISS/OSS voltage circuit terminal B on the control solenoid valve assembly and ground at the transmission case.
- If not within the specified range, replace the control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement .
Using the J 35616 terminal test kit, connect the J 38522 variable signal generated lead to the OSS signal circuit terminal C on the TCM.
Connect the black lead from the J 38522 variable signal generator to ground at the transmission case.
Set the J 38522 variable signal generator to 5 volts, the frequency to 300, and the percent duty cycle to 50 or the normal position.
Ignition ON, verify with a scan tool the Transmission OSS parameter is between 495-505 RPM.
- If not within the specified range, replace the control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement .
