Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information
Condition
Shift solenoids S2 and S1 operate in tandem to control gear-shifting. The solenoids are controlled by power stages in the transmission control module (TCM). The transmission control module (TCM) opens the power stages to activate the solenoids and sends a voltage through the circuit. Solenoid S1 is activated in 1st and 4th gears. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) TCM-0001 is stored if the control module registers that the signal in the solenoid S1 circuit is too high when the solenoid should not be activated.
Substitute Value
- The control module "Limp Home" program has been initiated.
Possible Source
- Short-circuit to supply voltage in the signal cable.
Fault symptom[s]
- General orange warning lamp lit.
- Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) lit.
- Harsh gear shifting.
- No shifting.
- No lock-up function.
HINT: Harsh shifting - due to disabled line pressure solenoid STH control. This results in constant maximum line pressure and leads to harsher shifting and gear engagement.
HINT: No shifting -because the transmission control module (TCM) prevents activation of the solenoids. This stops gear-shifting.
