Pinpoint Test J: PCA Solenoid

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Ford Pickup, 2010 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2010 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2010 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: This test should only be used if DTC P0748, P0960, P0962 or P0963 is present.
NOTE: Read and record all DTCs.
NOTE: Refer to the Transmission Vehicle Harness Connector illustration within the TRANSMISSION CONNECTOR LAYOUTS  procedure.
NOTE: Refer to the Internal Harness Connector illustration within the TRANSMISSION CONNECTOR LAYOUTS  procedure.
  1. J1 CHECK TRANSMISSION VEHICLE HARNESS FOR CONTINUITY 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Transmission Control Module (TCM) C1750.
    • Disconnect: Transmission Vehicle Harness C1385.
    • Check to make sure the transmission vehicle harness C1385 is fully seated, terminals are fully engaged in the connector and are in good condition before proceeding.
    • Measure the resistance between TCM  C1750 and C1385 using the following chart.

    • Is resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to J2  .
    • No:  REPAIR the open circuit. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  2. J2 CHECK TRANSMISSION VEHICLE HARNESS FOR SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Measure the resistance between TCM  C1750, harness side and ground using the following chart.

    • Is resistance greater than 10,000 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to J3  .
    • No:  REPAIR short circuit. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  3. J3 CHECK THE TRANSMISSION INTERNAL HARNESS FOR AN OPEN 
    • Drain the transmission fluid.
    • Remove the transmission fluid pan.
    • Disconnect: Pressure Control Solenoid A (PCA).
    • Measure the resistance between transmission internal harness C1385 and the PCA  solenoid using the following chart.

    • Is resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to J4  .
    • No:  INSTALL a new transmission harness. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  4. J4 CHECK THE TRANSMISSION INTERNAL HARNESS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Measure the resistance between transmission internal harness C1385 and ground using the following chart.

    • Is resistance greater than 10,000 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to J5  .
    • No:  INSTALL a new transmission harness. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  5. J5 CHECK THE PCA RESISTANCE 
    • Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 at the PCA  .
