  1. Install a scan tool.
  2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
    3. IMPORTANT: Before clearing the DTC, use the scan tool in order to record the Freeze Frame and Failure Records. Using the Clear Info function erases the Freeze Frame and Failure Records from the PCM.
  3. Record the DTC Freeze Frame and Failure Records.
  4. Clear the DTC.
    5. IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to allow multiple TCC cycles to occur in order to verify a slipping condition. It may also be necessary to ensure the transmission is warm before performing this step.
  5. Drive the vehicle in 4th gear with the TCC commanded ON.
Does the scan tool TCC Slip Speed measure within the specified range for 7 seconds?		 130-800 RPM Go to Step 4  Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections
