  Yes
  - Repair the (T792) Torque Converter Pressure Control Solenoid (7) circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - 948TE 9HP48 .
  No
  - Go To 8
CHECK THE (T792) TORQUE CONVERTER PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID (7) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO ANOTHER CIRCUIT
1. Check for continuity between the (T792) Torque Converter Pressure Control Solenoid (7) circuit and all other circuits at the TCM harness connector.
  Is there continuity between the (T792) Torque Converter Pressure Control Solenoid (7) circuit and any other circuits in the TCM harness connector?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (T792) Torque Converter Pressure Control Solenoid (7) circuit for a short to another circuit.
  - Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - 948TE 9HP48 .
  No
  - Go To 9
CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect all TCM harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
  - Proper connector installation.
  - Damaged connector locks.
  - Corrosion.
  - Other signs of water intrusion.
  - Weather seal damage (if equipped).
  - Bent terminals.
  - Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
  - Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
  - Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
5. Reconnect all TCM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
