FOREWORD

This Driveability and Emissions Section of this manual replaces SECTIO N 6C and SEC TIO N 6E of the P3 and C/K
Service Manual for gasoline engines with throttle body fuel systems and diesel engines with electronically controlled
fuel injection pumps.

The Electrical Diagnosis section of this manual contains wiring diagrams and electrical diagnosis for C/K models.

Procedures involving disassembly and assembly of major components for these vehicles are published in the Light
Dtfy Truck Unit Repair Manual (GMT/95-LDUR). Diagnosis, on-vehicle maintenance, and light repair procedures are
polished in the P3 and P/G Chassis service manual (GMT/95-CK-1).

CAUTIOil: General Motors service manuals are intended for use by professional, qualified
technicians. Attempting repairs or service without the appropriate training, tools, and
equipmert could cause injury to you or others and damage to your vehicle that may cause
it not to operate properly.

IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY CHECKS

BEFORE USING THIS SECTION


Before using this section you should have performed the “On-Board Diagnostic System Check” and determined
that:
1.
The control module and MIL (Service Engine Soon) are operating correctly.
2.
There are no diagnostic trouble codes stored, or there is a diagnostic code but no MIL (Service Engine
Soon).
• Several of the following symptom procedures call for a careful visual/physical check.
The importance of visual/phvsical checks cannot be over stressed, because they can lead to correcting a problem
without further checks and can save valuable time.

VISUAL/PHYSICAL CHECK
This check should include:
• Control module grounds for being clean, tight, and in their proper location. Refer to SECTION 1.
• Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks and proper connections, as shown on “Vehicle Emission Control
Information” label. Check thoroughly for any type of leak or restriction.
• Air leaks at all mounting areas of the intake manifold sealing surfaces.
• Ignition wires for cracking, hardness, proper routing, or carbon tracking.
• Wiring for proper connections, pinches, and cuts. Refer to SECTION 3A or 3B.
• The following symptom charts contain groups of possible causes for each symptom and cover several
engines. These procedures are not necessarily meant to be done in consecutive order. If
Tech 1 scan tool readings do not indicate the problems, then proceed in a logical order, easiest to check or
most likely cause first. To determine if a particular system or component is used on a specific vehicle, refer
to the “Control Module Wiring Diagrams” for application.

SYMPTOM
Verify the customer complaint, and locate the correct symptom in the table of contents. Check the items
indicated under that symptom.
INTERMITTENTS

(Page 1 of 2)
Definition: Problem may or may not turn “ON” the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or
store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).

PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Refer to “Important Preliminary Checks.”
DO NOT use the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) charts in SECTION 3A or 3B for intermittent problems. The
fault must be present to locate the problem. If a fault is intermittent, use of diagnostic trouble code charts may
result in replacement of good parts.

FAULTY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS OR WIRING


Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. Perform careful check of
suspect circuits for:
Poor mating of the connector halves, or terminals, not fully seated in the connector body (backed out).
Improperly formed or damaged terminals. All connector terminals in problem circuit should be carefully
reformed or replaced to insure proper contact tension.
Poor terminal to wire connection. This requires removing the terminal from the connector body to check.
Refer to “On-Vehicle Service” in SECTION 3A or 3B.

ROAD TEST
If a visual/physical check does not locate the cause of the problem, the vehicle can be driven with J 39200
voltmeter connected to a suspected circuit or a Tech 1 scan tool may be used. An abnormal voltage or scan
reading, when the problem occurs, indicates the problem may be in that circuit. If the wiring and connectors
check OK, and a diagnostic trouble code was stored for a circuit having a sensor, except for DTCs 44 and 45,
replace the sensor.
INTERMITTENTS

(Page 2 of 2)
Definition: Problem may or may not turn “ON” the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL), or store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).

INTERMITTENT “MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)”


• An intermittent MIL and No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), may be caused by:
Electrical system interference caused by a defective relay, control module driven solenoid, or switch. They
can cause a sharp electrical surge. Normally, the problem will occur when the faulty component is
operated.
Improper installation of electrical devices, such as lights, 2-way radios, electric motors, etc.
Ignition Control (IC) wires should be routed away from spark plug wires, ignition system components and
generator. Wire for CKT 453 from control module to ignition system should be a good ground.
Ignition secondary shorted to ground.
CKT 419 Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or CKT 451 (diagnostic “test” terminal) intermittently
shorted to ground.
Control module grounds. Refer to “Component Locations,” in SECTION 1.

LO SS OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE MEMORY


• To check, disconnect Throttle Position (TP) sensor and idle engine until the “Malfunction Indicator Lamp”
comes “ON.” DTC 22 should be stored, and kept in memory when the ignition is turned “OFF” for at least 10
seconds. If not, the control module is faulty.
HARD START

(Page 1 of 2)
Definition: Engine cranks OK, but does not start
for a long time. Does eventually run,
or may start but immediately dies.

PRELIMINARY CHECKS
• Refer to “Important Preliminary Checks.”
• Make sure the driver is using the correct starting procedure.

SEN SO RS
• CHECK: Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor - Using a scan tool, compare engine coolant temperature
with ambient temperature on a cold engine.
If coolant temperature reading is 5 degrees greater than or less than ambient air temperature on a
cold engine, check for high resistance in coolant sensor circuit or sensor itself. Refer to
“DTC 15” in SECTION 3A or 3B and compare resistance values.
• CHECK: Throttle Position (TP) sensor - If a sticking throttle shaft or binding linkage causes a high TP sensor
voltage (open throttle indication), the control module will not control idle. Monitoring TP sensor
voltage. Scan tool and/or voltmeter should display less than .85 volt with throttle closed. Refer to
SECTION 4A.

FUEL SYSTEM
• CHECK: Fuel pump relay operation. Fuel pump should operate for 20 seconds on vehicles with a fuel module
and for 2 seconds on all other vehicles when ignition is turned “ON.” Refer to “CHART A-5” in
SECTION 3A or 3B.
• CHECK: Fuel pressure. Refer to “CHART A-6” in SECTION 3A or 3B.
• CHECK: For water contaminated fuel.
• CHECK: Fuel pump relay - Connect test light between fuel pump “test” terminal and ground. Test light should be
“ON” for 2 seconds following ignition “ON.” If not, refer to “CHART A-5” in SECTION 3A or 3B.

Definition: Engine power variation, under steady
throttle or cruise. Feels like the vehicle
speeds up and slows down, with no
change in the accelerator pedal.

PRELIMINARY CHECKS
• Refer to “Important Preliminary Checks.”
• Be sure driver understands Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) and A/C compressor operation in owner’s manual.
• Use a scan tool to make sure reading of VSS matches vehicle speedometer except vehicles with electronic
transmissions where some variation between VSS and speedometer is normal. Refer to “DTC 16 Diagnostic
Aids” in SECTION 3A.

SEN SO RS
• CHECK: Oxygen Sensor (0 2 S ) for silicon contamination from fuel, or use of improper sealant (never use any
sealant on waterproof connectors). The sensor may have a white, powdery coating and result in a
high but false signal voltage (rich exhaust indication). The control module will then reduce the
amount of fuel delivered to the engine, causing a severe driveability problem.

FUEL SYSTEM
• CHECK: To determine if the condition is caused by a rich or lean system, the vehicle should be driven at the
speed of the complaint. Monitoring fuel trim will help identify a problem.
Lean - Long term fuel trim greater than 150. Refer to “DTC 44 Diagnostic Aids” in SECTION 3A
or 3B.
Rich - Long term fuel trim less than 115. Refer to “DTC 45 Diagnostic Aids” in SECTION 3A or 3B.

• Transmission shift pattern and down shift operation.
If there is spray from only one injector on the TBI unit, then, there may be a malfunction in the injector
assembly, or in the signal to the injector assembly. The malfunction can be isolated, by switching the injector
connectors. If the problem remains with the original injector, after switching the connector, the injector is
defective. Replace the injector. If the problem moves with the injector connector, the problem is an improper
signal in the injector circuits. Refer to “CHART A-3” in SECTION 3A or 3B.

Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor


Figure 3-5 Figure 3-5 - MAP Sensor
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures
the changes in the intake manifold pressure, resulting from
changes in engine load and speed changes, and converts this to
a voltage output.
A closed throttle on engine decel will produce a relatively
low MAP output. A Wide Open Throttle (WOT) will produce a
high output. The high output produced by the pressure inside
the manifold is the same as outside the manifold so 100% of the
outside air pressure is being measured.
The MAP sensor reading is the opposite of what you would
measure on a vacuum gage. When manifold pressure is high,
vacuum is low. The MAP sensor is also used to measure
barometric pressure under certain conditions, which allows the
control module to automatically adjust for different altitudes.
The control module sends a 5 volt reference signal to the
MAP sensor. As the manifold pressure changes, the electrical
resistance of the MAP sensor also changes. By monitoring the
sensor output voltage, the control module knows the manifold Figure 3-6 - Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S)

(0 2 S ) is constructed from a zirconia/platinum electrolytic
element. Zirconia is an electrolyte that conducts electricity
under certain chemical conditions.
This is a smaller difference in oxygen from the outside surfaces
which results in less conduction and a voltage signal below
0.3 volt (300 mV). The voltages are monitored and used by the
control module to “fine tune” the air/fuel ratio to achieve the
ideal mixture desired.
The control module puts out a reference signal of 0.45 volt
(450 mV). The reference signal serves two purposes. The first
is to run the engine when it is in “Open Loop” mode of
operation. When the air/fuel ratio is correct the control module
“senses” 450 mV. When the engine is operating with a rich
air/fuel ratio there is a reduction of free oxygen in the exhaust
stream and the oxygen sensor voltage rises above the reference
voltage.
When the engine is running lean the voltage drops below
the reference voltage due to excess oxygen in the exhaust
stream. The oxygen sensor provides the feedback information
for the “Closed Loop” operating mode of the fuel delivery
system. The oxygen sensor indicates to the control module
what is happening in the exhaust. It does not cause things to
happen. It is a type of gage: Low voltage output = lean mixture
= high oxygen content in exhaust; high voltage output = rich
mixture = low oxygen content in the exhaust.

If the heated oxygen sensor pigtail wiring connector or

be replaced. Do not attempt to repair the wiring, connector or

have provided to it a clean air reference. This clean air

exhaust gases produce small voltages. Figure 3-9 - V SS (Manual Transmission)
A rich exhaust (excessive fuel) has almost no oxygen.
When there is a large difference in the amount of oxygen
touching the inside and outside surfaces, there is more
conduction, and the sensor puts out a voltage signal above
0.6 volt (600 mV). With lean exhaust (excessive oxygen) there
is about two percent oxygen in the exhaust.
Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
Figure 3-8
The Throttle Position (TP) sensor is connected to the
throttle shaft on the throttle body unit. It is a potentiometer
with one end connected to 5 volts from the control module and
the other to ground. A third wire is connected to the control
module to measure the voltage from the TP sensor. As the
throttle valve angle is changed (accelerator pedal moved), the
output of the TP sensor also changes. At a closed throttle
position, the output of the TP signal is low (approximately
.5 volt). As the throttle valve opens, the output increases so
that, at Wide Open Throttle (WOT), the output voltage should
be approximately 4.5 volts.
By monitoring the output voltage from the TP sensor, the
control module can determine fuel delivery based on throttle
valve angle (driver demand).

Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)


Figures 3-9 through 3-11
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is made up of a coil
mounted on the transmission and a tooth rotor mounted to the
output shaft in the transmission. As each rotor tooth nears the
coil, the coil produces an AC voltage pulse. As the vehicle
speed increases the number of AC voltage pulses per second
increases. The vehicle speed signal buffer processes inputs
from the VSS and output signal to the speedometer control
module, and cruise control module. The VSS buffer signal
takes the voltage pulses from the VSS and uses them to open
and close four solid state output switches to ground at a rate
proportional to vehicle speed. The VSS buffer is matched to
the vehicle based on final drive ratio and tire size. It is
important to ensure that the correct VSS buffer is installed in

Located on the cylinder heads and engine block, depending
on application, the knock sensor(s) signal retards ignition
timing during a spark knock condition to allow the control
module to maintain maximum timing advance under most
conditions. Refer to SECTION 7 for further information.

Distributor Reference Signal

The distributor sends a signal to the control module to


indicate engine RPM. Refer to SECTION 6 for further
information.

Weather-Pack

A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a rubber


seal, at the rear of the connector. This connector, which is used
in the engine compartment, protects against moisture and dirt,
which could create oxidation and deposits on the terminals.
This protection is important, because of the very low voltage
and current levels found in the electronic system.

“Typical Tech 1 Data Values” are an average of display values recorded from normally operating vehicles and are intended to
represent what a normally functioning system would display. The values you get may vary due to low battery charge or other
reasons, but they should be very close.
A SCAN TOOL THAT DISPLAYS FAULTY DATA SHOULD NOT BE USED, AND THE PROBLEM
SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE U SE OF A FAULTY SCAN TOOL CAN
RESULT IN MISDIAGNOSIS AND UNNECESSARY PARTS REPLACEMENT.
Only the parameters listed below are used in this manual for diagnosis. If a scan tool reads other parameters, the values are not
recommended by General Motors for use in diagnosis. For more description on the values and use of the Tech 1 tool to diagnosis

Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is turned “ON,” the control module will turn “ON” the in-tank fuel pump. It will remain “ON” as long
as the engine is cranking or running, and the PCM is receiving distributor reference pulses. If there are no reference pulses, the PCM
will shut “O F F ’ the fuel pump within 2 seconds after ignition “ON” or engine stops.
On 4.3L, 5.0L and 5.7L applications the pump will deliver fuel to the TBI unit where the system pressure is controlled to about
62 to 90 kPa (9 to 13 psi). Excess fuel is then returned to the fuel tank.

controlled to about 62 to 90 kPa (9 to 13 psi) on 4.3L, 5.0L and 5.7L applications.
On 7.4L applications the pump will deliver system pressure that is controlled to about 179-220 kPa (26 to 32 psi). Excess fuel is
then returned to the fuel tank.

MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP) OUTPUT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures the changes in the intake manifold pressure which result from engine
load (intake manifold vacuum) and RPM changes; and converts these into a voltage output. The PCM sends a 5 volt reference
voltage to the MAP sensor. As the manifold pressure changes, the output voltage of the sensor also changes. By monitoring the
sensor output voltage, the PCM knows the manifold pressure. At lower pressure output voltage will be about 1 to 2 volts at idle.
While at higher pressure or at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) output voltage will be about 4 to 4.8 volts. The MAP sensor is also used,
under certain conditions, to measure barometric pressure, allowing the PCM to make adjustments for different altitudes. The PCM
uses the MAP sensor to control fuel delivery and ignition timing.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to 3. Check vacuum hose to sensor for leaking or restriction. Be

• When comparing Tech 1 scan readings to a known

figures on facing page.
2. Applying 34 kPa (10" Hg) vacuum to the MAP sensor
should cause the voltage to change. Subtract second
reading from the first. Voltage value should be greater than
1.5 volts. Upon applying vacuum to the sensor, the change
in voltage should be instantaneous. A slow voltage change
indicates a faulty sensor.

A/C SIGNAL DIAGNOSIS


Circuit and Test Description:
Turning “ON” the air conditioning supplies CKT 59 battery voltage to the A/C compressor clutch and to terminal “E l2” of the
PCM connector to increase and maintain idle speed.
The PCM does not control the A/C compressor clutch, therefore, if A/C does not function, refer to the A/C section of the service
manual for diagnosis of the system.
If A/C is operating properly and idle speed dips too low when the A/C compressor turns “ON” or flares too high when the A/C
compressor turns “OFF,” check for an open CKT 59 to the PCM. If circuits are OK, it is a faulty PCM connector terminal “E12”
or PCM.
RESTRICTED EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK
Proper diagnosis for a restricted exhaust system is essential before any components are replaced.

CHECK AT HEATED OXYGEN SENSO R


(H02S):
1. Carefully remove H 02S.
2. Install exhaust backpressure tester (J 35314-A) in place of
H 02S (see illustration).
3. After completing test described below, be sure to coat threads
of H 02S with anti-seize compound P/N 5613695 or
equivalent prior to re-installation.

DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the engine idling at normal operating temperature, observe the exhaust system backpressure reading on the gage.
Reading should not exceed 8.6 kPa (1.25 psi).
2. Increase engine speed to 2000 RPM and observe gage. Reading should not exceed 20.7 kPa (3 psi).
3. If the backpressure at either speed exceeds specification, a restricted exhaust system is indicated.
4. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress, or possible internal muffler failure.
5. If there are no obvious reasons for the excessive backpressure, the catalytic converter is suspected to be restricted and
should be replaced using current recommended procedures.

VEHICLE SPEED SEN SO R (VSS)
(MANUAL TRANSMISSION ONLY)
Circuit Description:
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) buffer and
wiring. Gear teeth pressed on the outside diameter of the output carrier assembly induce an alternating current in the sensor. On two
wheel drive vehicles, this current is transmitted to the vehicle speed signal buffer where it is passed on to the PCM. The VSS buffer
compensates for various axle ratios and converts the signal to a square wave for use by the speedometer, cruise control and antilock
brake system. Since vehicle speed is taken from the transfer case on four wheel drive vehicles, the transmission vehicle speed sensor
signal on these units goes directly to the PCM. DTC 24 will set when vehicle speed is more than 7 MPH for over 10 seconds while
vehicle speed buffer pulses equal zero.

IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) ERROR
Circuit Description:
The control module controls engine idle speed with the IAC valve. To increase idle speed, the control module retracts the IAC
valve pintle away from it’s seat, allowing more air to pass by the throttle bore. To decrease idle speed, it extends the IAC valve pintle
towards it’s seat, reducing bypass air flow. A Tech 1 scan tool will read the control module commands to the IAC valve in counts.
Higher the counts indicate more air bypass (higher idle). The lower the counts indicate less air is allowed to bypass (lower idle).

DTC 42
IGNITION CONTROL (IC) ERROR
Circuit Description:
When the system is running on the ignition module, that is, no voltage on the bypass line, the ignition module grounds the IC signal.
The PCM expects to see no voltage on the IC line during this condition. If it sees a voltage, it sets DTC 42 and will not go into the IC mode.
When the RPM for IC is reached (about 450 RPM), and bypass voltage is applied, the IC should no longer be grounded in the
ignition module so the IC voltage should be varying.

DTC 42 Will Set When: The bypass line is open or grounded, the ignition module will not switch to IC mode so the IC
voltage will be low and DTC 42 will be set.
If the IC line is grounded, the ignition module will switch to IC, but because the line is grounded there will be no IC signal. A
DTC 42 will be set.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM turns “ON” the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). (Possible ignition
bypass mode depending on fault.)

DTC 42 Will Clear When: Conditions for fault are no longer present and Tech 1 “clear DTCs” function is used or 50 ignition
switch keycycles have passed with no further faults or ignition switch is turned “OFF’ and battery feed voltage is removed for ten seconds.

consists of liquid graphite and glass beads. The
graphite will tend to burn away, but the glass beads
will remain, making the sensor easier to remove.

The Engine Control Module (ECM) is located in the
passenger compartment and is the control center of the control
module system.
The ECM constantly looks at the information from various
sensors, and controls the systems that affect vehicle performance.
The ECM performs the diagnostic fiinction of the system. It can
recognize operational problems, alert the driver through the MIL,
and store a DTC or DTC(s), thereby identifying the problem

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK


(With Tech 1 Scan Tool)
The diagnostic circuit check is an organized approach to identifying a problem created by a control module system malfunction.
It must be the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis, because it directs the service technician to the next logical step
in diagnosing the complaint. Understanding the chart and using it correctly will reduce diagnostic time and prevent the unnecessary
replacement of good parts.

TYPICAL SCAN DATA VALUES
The scan data listed in this table may be used for comparison after completing the on-board diagnostic system check and
finding the on-board diagnostics functioning properly with no diagnostic DTCs displayed. The “Typical Scan Data Values”
are an average of display values recorded from normally operating vehicles and are intended to represent what a normally
functioning system would display. The values you get may vary due to low battery charge or other reasons, but they should be
very close.
A SCAN TOOL THAT DISPLAYS FAULTY DATA SHOULD NOT BE USED, AND THE PROBLEM
SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE USE OF A FAULTY SCAN TOOL CAN
RESULT IN MISDIAGNOSIS AND UNNECESSARY PARTS REPLACEMENT.
Only the parameters listed below are used in this manual for diagnosis. If a scan tool displays other parameters, the
values are not recommended by General Motors for use in diagnosis. For more description on the values and use of the scan
tool to diagnosis ECM inputs, refer to the applicable “Component Systems” diagnosis. If all values are within the range
illustrated, refer to SECTION 2.

CHART A-5
FUEL PUMP RELAY CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is turned “ON,” the Engine Control Module (ECM) will turn “ON” the in-tank fuel pump. It will
remain “ON” as long as the engine is cranking or running, and the ECM is receiving distributor reference pulses. If there are no
reference pulses, the ECM will shut “OFF” the fuel pump within 2 seconds after ignition “ON” or engine stops, except when a fuel
module is used.
The pump will deliver fuel to the TBI unit where the system pressure is controlled to about 62 to 90 kPa (9 to 13 psi). Excess
fuel is then returned to the fuel tank.
A fuel module is used on 5.7L (heavy duty) engines to correct a hot restart (vapor lock) during a high ambient condition. It is
designed to over-ride the ECM two second pump operation, and will engage the fuel pump for twenty seconds at initial ignition “ON.”

MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP) OUTPUT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures the pressure changes in the intake manifold pressure which result
from engine load (intake manifold vacuum) and RPM changes; and converts these into a voltage output. The ECM sends a
5 volt reference voltage to the MAP sensor. As the manifold pressure changes, the output voltage of the sensor also changes. By
monitoring the sensor output voltage, the ECM knows the manifold pressure. At lower pressure output the voltage will be about
1 to 2 volts at idle. While at higher pressure or at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) output the voltage will be about 4 to 4.8 volts. The
MAP sensor is also used, under certain conditions, to measure barometric pressure, allowing the ECM to make adjustments for
different altitudes. The ECM uses the MAP sensor to control fuel delivery and ignition timing.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to 3. Check vacuum hose to sensor for leaking or restriction. Be

• When comparing scan tool readings to a known good
vehicle, it is important to compare vehicles that use a

same “Hot Stamped” number. Refer to figures on
facing page.
Applying 34 kPa (10" Hg) vacuum to the MAP sensor
should cause the voltage to change. Subtract second

in voltage should be instantaneous. A slow voltage change

A/C SIGNAL DIAGNOSIS


Circuit And Chart Test Description:
Turning “ON” the air conditioning supplies CKT 59 battery voltage to the A/C compressor clutch and to terminal “B8” of the
ECM connector to increase and maintain idle speed.
The ECM does not control the A/C compressor clutch, therefore, if A/C does not function, refer to the A/C section of the
service manual for diagnosis of the system.
If A/C is operating properly and idle speed dips too low when the A/C compressor turns “ON” or flares too high when the A/C
compressor turns “OFF,” check for an open CKT 59 to the ECM. If circuits are OK, it is a faulty ECM connector terminal “B8” or ECM.

Proper diagnosis for a restricted exhaust system is essential before any components are replaced. Either of the following

DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the engine idling at normal operating temperature, observe the exhaust system backpressure reading on the gage.
Reading should not exceed 8.6 kPa (1.25 psi).
2. Increase engine speed to 2000 RPM and observe gage. Reading should not exceed 20.7 kPa (3 psi).
3. If the backpressure at either speed exceeds specification, a restricted exhaust system is indicated.
4. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress, or possible internal muffler failure.

OXYGEN SENSOR (02S) CIRCUIT
(OPEN CIRCUIT)
Circuit Description:
The ECM supplies a voltage of about .45 volt between terminals “D6” and “D7”. (If measured with a 10 megohm digital
voltmeter, this may read as low as .32 volt.) The Oxygen Sensor (0 2 S ) varies the voltage from a range of approximately 1 volt if the
exhaust is rich, to approximately .10 volt if exhaust is lean.
The sensor is like an open circuit and produces no voltage when it is below approximately 315°C (600°F). An open sensor
circuit or cold sensor causes “Open Loop” operation.

DTC 13 Will Set When:


• Engine temperature greater than 70°C (158°F).
• Two minutes engine time after start.
• 0 2 S signal voltage steady between .35 and .55 volt.
• Throttle Position (TP) sensor signal above 9%.
• All conditions must be met for about 2 minutes.

Circuit Description:
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is a thermistor which controls the signal voltage to the ECM. The ECM applies
a voltage on 5V reference circuit to the sensor. When the engine is cold, the sensor (thermistor) resistance is high; therefore the
ECM will see a high signal voltage.
As the engine warms, the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage drops. At normal engine operating temperature
(85°C to 95°C), the voltage will measure about 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 14 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates a coolant temperature above 135°C (270°F) while engine not running or

EXHAUST G AS RECIRCULATION (EGR) ERROR
Circuit Description:
The ECM operates a solenoid to control the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve. This solenoid is normally closed. By
providing a ground path, the ECM energizes the solenoid which then allows vacuum to pass to the EGR valve.

DTC 32 Will Set When: The ECM monitors EGR effectiveness by de-energizing the EGR control solenoid; thereby,
shutting “OFF” vacuum to the EGR valve diaphragm. With the EGR valve closed, and 02 S fluctuating normally, short term fuel
trim counts will be greater than they were during normal EGR operation. If the change is not within the calibrated window, a DTC
32 will be set after 3 consecutive failures.
The ECM will check EGR operation when: • No change in throttle position while test is being run,
• Engine speed is above 1500 RPM. max 4%.
• Engine vacuum is between 15 and 60 kPa. • EGR on threshold 98%.

IGNITION CONTROL (IC) ERROR
Circuit Description:
When the system is running on the ignition module, that is, no voltage on the bypass line, the ignition module grounds the IC signal.
The PCM expects to see no voltage on the IC line during this condition. If it sees a voltage, it sets DTC 42 and will not go into the IC mode.
When the RPM for IC is reached (about 450 RPM), and bypass voltage is applied, the IC should no longer be grounded in the
ignition module so the IC voltage should be varying.
DTC 42 Will Set When: If the bypass line is open or grounded, the ignition module will not switch to IC mode so the IC
voltage will be low and DTC 42 will be set.
If the IC line is grounded, the ignition module will switch to IC, but because the line is grounded there will be no IC signal. A
DTC 42 will be set.
Action Taken (ECM will default to): The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.

Knock Sensor (KS) system is accomplished with a module which sends a voltage signal to the ECM. As the KS detects engine
knock, the voltage from the KS module to the KS drops, which in turn signals the ECM to retard timing. The ECM will retard the
timing when knock is detected and RPM is above 900 RPM but less than 3800 RPM.
DTC 43 Will Set When: DTC 43 means the ECM has seen a low voltage on CKT 457 terminal “B7” for longer than 5
seconds with the engine running, or the system has failed the functional check.
The ECM continually monitors voltage on CKT 457 terminal “B7” if a knock signal (low voltage) is detected; but less than one
second, the KS system is considered operational and DTC 43 will not set. If however, low voltage is detected for more than one
second or signal voltage remains high, a functional check will be performed. To perform check, the ECM will advance the spark
timing when coolant temperature is between 86°C -105°C (186°F -224°F) and the engine is under heavy load (near WOT). The
ECM then checks the signal voltage at “B7” to see if a knock is detected. If no knock is detected, the MIL will remain “ON” until the
ignition is turned “O F F ’ or until a knock signal is detected. The functional check will only be performed once per startup.
Action Taken (ECM will default to): The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.
DTC 43 Will Clear When: Conditions for fault are no longer present and 50 ignition switch keycycles have passed with no
further faults or ignition switch is turned “OFF” and battery feed voltage is removed for 10 seconds.

LEAN EXHAUST
Circuit Description:
The ECM supplies a voltage of about .45 volt between terminals “D6” and “D7”. (If measured with a 10 megohm digital
voltmeter, this may read as low as .32 volt.) The Oxygen Sensor (0 2 S ) varies the voltage within a range of about 1 volt if the
exhaust is rich, to about .10 volt if exhaust is lean.
The sensor is like an open circuit and produces no voltage when it is below about 3 15°C (600°F). An open sensor circuit or cold
sensor causes “Open Loop” operation.

DTC 44 Will Set When: The Oxygen Sensor (0 2 S ) signal voltage on the 02 S signal circuit:
• Remains below .2 volts for 4 minutes.
• With the system operating in “Closed Loop.”

Action Taken (ECM will default to): The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.

DTC 44 Will Clear When: Conditions for fault are no longer present and 50 ignition switch keycycles have passed with no
further faults or ignition switch is turned “O F F ’ and battery feed voltage is removed for 10 seconds.

• Remains above .7 volt for 60 seconds, while in “Closed Loop.”
• Engine time after start is one minute or more.
• Throttle angle greater than 5% (about .2 volt above idle voltage).

FUEL PUMP RELAY
(LOW VOLTAGE)
Circuit Description:
The status of the fuel pump CKT 120 is monitored by the ECM at terminal “B2” and is used to compensate fuel delivery based
on system voltage. This signal is also used to store a DTC if the fuel pump relay is defective or fuel pump voltage is lost while the
engine is running. There should be about 12 volts on CKT 120 for at least two seconds after the ignition is turned “ON,” or any time
reference pulses are being received by the ECM.
DTC 54 Will Set When: The voltage at terminal “B2” is less than 4 volts for one second since the last reference pulse was
received. This DTC is designed to detect a faulty relay, causing extended crank time and the DTC will help the diagnosis of an
engine that “Cranks But Will Not Run.”
Action Taken (ECM will default to): The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.
DTC 54 Will Clear When: Conditions for fault are no longer present and 50 ignition switch keycycles have passed with no

Battery Voltage Correction Mode

When battery voltage is low, the control module can


compensate for a weak spark delivered to the distributor by:
• Increasing injector “ON” time.
• Increasing the idle RPM.
• Increasing ignition dwell time.

Fuel Cutoff Mode

No fuel is delivered by the injector when the ignition is


“OFF.” This prevents dieseling. Also, fuel is not delivered if
no reference pulses are seen from the Distributor Ignition (DI)
system, which means the engine is not running. Fuel cutoff
also occurs at high engine RPM, to protect internal engine
components from damage vehicle speed also enables fuel
cutoff.

Idle Speed Control Actuator (7.4L Only)

The idle speed control actuator system assists the idle air
control system in controlling the idle speed, primarily at cold
temperatures. The idle speed control actuator is a vacuum
operated device which opens the throttle slightly (2 to 3 degrees
of angle) to increase the cold engine idle speed, to improve the
mixing of the air and fuel, and to allow lower warmed up
engine idle speeds. The idle speed control actuator is

Vapor lock problems are reduced when using an electric
pump because the fuel is pushed from the tank under pressure

running, the control module turns a fuel pump relay “ON” for
two seconds. This builds up the fuel pressure quickly. If the

IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) SYSTEM CHECK


Circuit Description:
The control module controls engine idle speed with the IAC valve. To increase idle speed, the control module retracts the IAC
valve pintle away from it’s seat, allowing more air to pass by the throttle bore. To decrease idle speed, it extends the IAC valve
pintle towards it’s seat, reducing bypass air flow. A Tech 1 scan tool will read the control module commands to the IAC valve in

idle).

IDLE SPEED CONTROL ACTUATOR CHECK


(Page 1 of 2)
Circuit Description:
The idle speed control actuator system assists the idle air control system in controlling the idle speed, primarily at cold
temperatures. The idle speed control actuator is a vacuum operated device which opens the throttle slightly (2 to 3 degrees of angle)
to increase the cold engine idle speed, to improve the mixing of the air and fuel, and to allow lower warmed up engine idle speeds.
The idle speed control actuator is controlled by the idle speed control actuator solenoid, which is controlled by the control module.
To increase the idle speed, the solenoid is turned “OFF,” and no vacuum is routed to the idle speed control actuator, allowing it to
open the throttle slightly. To decrease the idle speed, the solenoid is turned “ON,” and vacuum is routed through the solenoid to the
idle speed control actuator, allowing the throttle to fully close.
In conjunction with the idle speed control actuator system, the idle air control system continuously monitors and controls the
engine idle speed to the desired idle speed. A Tech 1 scan tool will read the control module commands to the idle speed control
actuator system.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PURPOSE
The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) control system limits
fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. The EVAP
transfers fuel vapor from the sealed fuel tank to an activated
carbon (charcoal) storage device (vapor canister). The canister
will store the vapors until the engine is able to use the extra fuel
vapor.
When the engine is able to use the extra fuel vapor, the fuel
vapor is purged from the carbon element by intake air flow and
consumed in the normal combustion process.
The fuel tank is sealed with a fuel cap that is not normally
vented to the atmosphere. The fuel tank cap has a safety valve
which allows for both pressure and vacuum relief.

OPERATION
Fuel vapors from the fuel tank are purged and flow into the
vapor canister tube labeled “tank” and are absorbed by the
carbon. The EVAP canister (Figure 5-1) is purged when the
engine is able to use the extra fuel vapor. A vacuum source is
applied to the EVAP canister tube labeled “purge” to draw fresh
air through the top of the canister. The air mixes with the fuel
vapor and the mixture is drawn into the intake manifold to be
consumed in the normal combustion process.
While the EVAP canister is purging, fresh air is drawn in
through the air inlet at the top of the EVAP canister. Air flows
to the bottom of the EVAP canister and forces the vapors out the
“purge” tube.
EVAP Canister Purge Solenoid vacuum source on the TBI unit works on a vacuum control
-valve - which cycles open and closed with port vacuum signal.
The EVAP system in some applications uses an electrically EVAP Canister Location: - The EVAP canister is

systems. On single knock systems the resistance of the knock
sensor is 3900 ohms. This resistance will lower the applied
voltage to about half or 2.5 volts. When a knock is present, a
small AC voltage is produced by the knock sensors and
transmitted to the control module riding on top of the already
existing 2.5 volts. An AC voltage monitor inside the control
module will detect the knock and trigger the control module to
start retarding the spark incrementally.

BLANK
KNOCK SENSOR (KS) SYSTEM CHECK
WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND ECM 5.0L, 5.7L
Circuit Description:
The Knock Sensor (KS) system has a module that sends a voltage signal to the ECM. As the knock sensor detects detonation,
the voltage from the KS module to the ECM will drop. This signal allows the ECM to retard timing. The ECM will retard the
timing when knock is detected and RPM is above 900 RPM. Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) 43 will set when the ECM has
detected low voltage at CKT 457 on terminal “ B7” for longer than 5 seconds with the engine operating or when the system has
failed the functional check.
The ECM continually monitors voltage on CKT 457 on terminal “B 7” .
The ECM will advance the spark timing when:
• Engine coolant temperature is above 95°C.
• Engine is under heavy load (near WOT).
The ECM will then check the signal voltage at terminal “B7” to determine if knock is detected. If no knock is detected, the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will remain “ ON” until the next ignition cycle, or until a knock signal is detected. The
functional check will only be performed once per ignition cycle.

occur. For this reason only very little exhaust gas is allowed to
re-enter the combustion chamber.

The solenoid (bobbin and coil) assembly is energized by
12 volt current which enters the valve through an electrical
connector (terminal “E”), then flows through the solenoid
assembly to the control module and creates an electromagnetic
field. This field causes the armature assembly to be pulled
upward, lifting the pintle a variable amount off the base.
The exhaust gas then flows from the exhaust manifold
(through the orifice) to the intake manifold. The height of the
pintle is read by the pintle position sensor, and the control
module closes the loop on desired position versus actual
position read, changing the pulse width modulated command to
the solenoid accordingly, until the actual pintle position equals
the desired pintle position.
This results in improved flow accuracy. In most EGR
designs, the flow is “Open Loop,” in which the system has no
feedback mechanism to monitor actual flow and then to correct it.
The linear EGR valve is unique in that the control module
continuously monitors pintle height and continuously corrects
it in order to obtain accurate flow, making linear EGR a
“Closed Loop” system.
When the solenoid is de-energized (control module breaks
I
the circuit), the pintle is sealed against the orifice, blocking
exhaust flow to the intake manifold.

WITH LINEAR EGR VALVE
Circuit Description:
To control Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), the control module operates the linear EGR valve. The linear EGR valve is a
small motor with a pintle that is normally closed. By providing a ground path, the control module will open the pintle and allow
exhaust gasses to pass through the valve. The control module control of the EGR is based on the following inputs:
• Engine coolant temperature - above 25°C. • BARO.
• TP - “OFF” idle. • Park/neutral position.
• MAP. • Pintle position sensor.

The negative backpressure EGR valve in this system is NEGATIVE B A C K P R E SSU R E EG R VALVE
operated by vacuum which is turned “ON” and “O F F ’ by a Figure 9B-1
control module actuated solenoid.
The negative backpressure EGR valve has the bleed valve
spring below the diaphragm, and the valve is normally closed.
The negative backpressure valve varies the amount of exhaust
gas flow into the manifold depending on manifold vacuum and
variations in exhaust backpressure.
The diaphragm on this valve has an internal air bleed hole
which is held closed by a small spring when there is no exhaust
backpressure.
Engine vacuum opens the EGR valve against the pressure
of a large spring. When manifold vacuum combines with
negative exhaust backpressure, the vacuum bleed hole opens
and the EGR valve closes.
This valve will open if vacuum is applied with the engine
not operating.

EGR SYSTEM CHECK


WITH PORT EGR VALVE
Circuit Description:
The control module operates an EVRV solenoid to control the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve. This EVRV solenoid is
normally closed. By providing a ground path, the control module energizes the EVRV solenoid which then allows vacuum to pass
the EGR valve.
The control module monitors EGR effectiveness by de-energizing the EVRV solenoid, thereby, shutting “O F F ’ vacuum to the
EGR vale diaphragm. With the EGR valve closed and H 02S fluctuating normally, fuel integrator counts will be greater than they
were during normal EGR operation. If the change is not within the calibrated window, a DTC 32 will be set.
The control module will check EGR operation when:
• Engine speed is greater than 1600 RPM.
• Engine vacuum is between 20 and 60 kPa (6" and 18" Hg).
• No change in throttle position while test is being performed.

TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT)
SENSOR
Figure 10A-5
The TFT sensor is a thermistor (a device that
changes resistance according to changes in
temperature) used to indicate transmission fluid
temperature. High sensor resistance produces high
signal input voltage which corresponds to low fluid
temperature. Low sensor resistance produces low
signal input voltage which corresponds to high fluid
temperature. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal
input to determine the following:
• TCC apply and release schedules.
• Hot mode determination.
• Shift quality.
The TFT sensor is part of the transmission range

(current and history). The DTC charts assume the DTC
is in current status. If the DTC is in history status, the
fault may be an intermittent. An “intermittent” DTC
is one which will not reset during the current ignition
cycle. The facing page of a DTC chart will contain
“DIAGNOSTIC AIDS” to help locate intermittent
conditions.
If a visual (physical) check does not locate the
cause of the fault, J 39200 DVM can be used to test
the suspected circuit. The J 39200 DVM can be used
to check for opens or shorts:
• SHORT TO VOLTAGE - Connect J 39200 to
a known good ground on the DC voltage scale.
• SHORT TO GROUND - Connect J 39200 to
a known good B+ on the DC voltage scale.
• OPEN CIRCUIT - Connect J 39200 to each
end of the circuit on the ohms scale with
voltage removed from the circuit.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK
(WITH TECH 1 SCAN TOOL)
Circuit Description:
The on-board diagnostic system check is an organized approach to identifying a problem created by a
control module system malfunction. It must be the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis, because
it directs the service technician to the next logical step in diagnosing the complaint. Understanding the chart and
using it correctly will reduce diagnostic time and prevent the unnecessary replacement of good parts.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This step is a check for the proper operation of the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). The MIL should be
“ON” steady.
2. Use Techl to aid diagnosis, therefore, serial data must be available. If a PROM (MEM-CAL) error is present,
the PCM may have been able to flash DTC 12/51, but not enable serial data.
3. Although the PCM is powered up, a “Cranks But Will Not Run” symptom could exist because of a PCM or
system problem.
4. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or a driveability problem with no MIL. Refer to
“Diagnostic Trouble Code Identification” in this section for a list of valid DTC(s). An invalid DTC may be
the result of a faulty scan tool, PROM (MEM-CAL) or PCM.
5. Comparison of actual control system data with the Typical Tech 1 Data Values is a quick check to determine
if any parameter is not within limits. Keep in mind that a base engine problem (i.e., advanced cam timing)
may substantially alter sensor values.

If after completing the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system check and finding the TECH 1 Scan Tool
diagnostics functioning properly and no DTC(s) displayed, the “Transmission TECH 1 Scan Tool Values” may
be used for comparison with values obtained on the vehicle being diagnosed. The “Transmission TECH 1 Scan
Tool Values” are an average of display values recorded from normally operating vehicles and are intended to
represent what a normally functioning system would display.
A SCAN TOOL THAT DISPLAYS FAULTY DATA SHOULD NOT BE USED, AND THE
PROBLEM SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE USE OF A
FAULTY SCAN TOOL CAN RESULT IN MISDIAGNOSIS AND UNNECESSARY PARTS
REPLACEMENT.
Only the parameters listed below are used in this manual for diagnosing. If a scan tool displays other
parameters, the values are not recommended by General Motors for use in diagnosing. For further description
on the values and use of the TECH 1 Scan Tool to diagnose PCM inputs, refer to “General Description.” If all
values are within the range illustrated, refer to SECTION 7A14A (4L60-E) or 7A17A (4L80-E) “Functional

4L60-E TRANSMISSION FLUID CHECKING PROCEDURE
1. Warm the transmission to operating temperature by driving the vehicle about 15 miles (24 km). Operating temperature is
180-200°F (82-94°C).
2. Park vehicle on a level surface, place shift lever in “P” park and apply the parking brake.
3. Check fluid level on the dipstick (read the lower level).
4. If fluid level is low, DEXRON®-III Automatic Transmissions Fluid is preferred, if unavailable DEXRON®-IIE is
acceptable, add only enough to bring the fluid level into the hot area.
* It is important to check fluid level when the transmission has reached operating temperature. The hot range is calibrated
to correspond to the correct fluid level range for fluid between 180 and 200°F (82-94°C).

4WD LOW SWITCH CHECK
(WITH MECHANICAL SHIFT)
Circuit Description:
The 4WD low circuit consists of a 4WD indicator assembly, a selector switch assembly, front axle switch
and wiring. When the operator moves the transfer case select lever to 4WD low, the selector switch completes
CKT 39 to CKT 150. When the circuit is complete the 4WD low indicator lamp will illuminate, CKT 1694 to
the PCM will change from B+ to zero. The front axle switch will close and complete CKT 1695 to CKT 150.
The front axle switch will modify antilock brakes and illuminate the front axle lamp. The front axle switch does
not effect CKT 1694 signal input to the PCM because the switch is also closed in the 4WD high position. The
4WD low switch signal is used to correct the transmission output speed signal from the Vehicle Speed Signal
(VSS) Buffer Module to the PCM to compensate for transfer case gear reduction.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): No DTC(s) will be set, however, if CKT 1694 is shorted to B+, the
transmission will have late or no upshifts in 4WD low. If CKT 1694 is shorted to ground or open, the transmis­
sion will have an early shift pattern.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks for mechanical adjustment and ignition feed.
2. This test checks the integrity of the 4WD low circuit.
3. This test checks the selector switch.

Diagnostic Aids:

TRANSMISSION RANGE (TR)


PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY CIRCUIT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Range (TR) switch assembly consists of five pressure switches (two normally closed and
three normally open), and a TFT sensor combined into one unit and mounted on the valve body. The PCM
supplies battery voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of these circuits through various
combinations of the pressure switches, the PCM detects what manual valve position has been selected by the
vehicle operator. With ignition “ON” and engine “OFF,” P/N will be indicated. When transmission electrical
connector is disconnected, the ground potential for the three range signals to the PCM will be removed, and with
ignition “ON,” D2 will be indicated.

DTCChart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks the indicated range signal to the manual valve position actually selected.
2. This test checks for correct voltage from the PCM to the transmission external connector.
3. This test checks for a short to ground from the PCM to the transmission external connector in any one of the
three circuits.

Diagnostic Aids:
Refer to accompanying chart for various A/B/C range
combinations. Check all wiring connectors for proper terminal Range Signal A B C

VEHICLE SPEED SENSO R (VSS) CIRCUIT LOW
(TRANS OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL)

Circuit Description:
The speed sensor circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, a Vehicle Speed Sensor buffer module,
4WD low switch (when needed), and wiring. Gear teeth pressed onto the output shaft induces an alternating
voltage into the sensor. This signal is transmitted to the VSS buffer module. The VSS buffer module compensates
for various final drive ratios. The VSS buffer module will also convert the AC VSS signal into a 40 Pulse Per
Revolution (PPR) DC signal on CKT 437 to indicate transmission output speed. On 4WD vehicles, the 4WD
low signal will also be used for adjustment of the 40 PPR signal to the PCM.

DTC24 W ill Set W hen:


• Not in P/N. • MAP is less than 100 kPa.
• CKT 437 voltage is constant. • TP is between 10% and 100%.
• Engine speed is greater than 3000 RPM. • All conditions met for 3 seconds.
• Output speed is less than 250 RPM. • No DTC(s) 21, 22, 28, 33, or 34.

Action Taken (PCMwill default to): Second gear only at maximum line pressure.

DTC24 Will Clear When: The ignition is cycled “OFF” then “ON.”

DTCChart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for voltage to the VSS buffer module.
2. This test checks the ground circuit to the VSS buffer module.
3. This test checks the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) circuit at the VSS buffer module.

Circuit Description:
The Transmission Range (TR) switch assembly consists of five pressure switches (two normally closed and
three normally open), and a TFT sensor combined into one unit and mounted on the valve body. The PCM
supplies battery voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of these circuits through various
combinations of the pressure switches, the PCM detects what manual valve position has been selected by the
vehicle operator. With ignition “ON” and engine “OFF,” P/N will be indicated. When the transmission electrical
connector is disconnected, the ground potential for the three range signals to the PCM will be removed, and with
ignition “ON,” D2 will be indicated.
DTC28 Will Set When: Range signals “A” and “C” are both zero volts “ON” for 2 seconds.
Action Taken (PCMwill default to): Harsh shifts, drive 4 shift control. TCC will be inhibited, and if in hot
mode, there will be no fourth gear. DTC 28 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).

T R A N SM ISSIO N FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SEN SO R CIRCUIT LOW
(HIGH TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly, that controls the signal voltage to
the PCM. The PCM applies voltage on CKT 1227 to the sensor. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor
resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to the normal transmission operating temperature of 100°C
(212°F), the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to 1.5 to 2.0 volts. With a DTC 79 also set,
check the transmission cooling system.

DTC 58 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates TFT greater than 151°C (306°F) for 1 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): When DTC 58 is set, the transmission will use a warm value for
operation, but the scan tool will display the actual fluid temperature. The TCC solenoid will be “ON” in third,
and fourth gears. The shifts will occur early. DTC 58 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON”
the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 58 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a short to ground or a skewed sensor.
2. This test checks for an internal fault within the transmission by creating an open.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227. Scan tool TFT display
should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A14A may be used to test the TFT sensor at the
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor
could result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.

(LOW TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly, that controls the signal voltage to
the PCM. The PCM applies 5 volts to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor
resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to the normal transmission operating temperature of 100°C
(212°F), the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases at about 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 59 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates TFT less than -40°C (-40°F), for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): When DTC 59 is set, the transmission will use a warm value for
operation, but, the scan tool will display the actual fluid temperature.
When DTC is set, the TCC may not apply properly. DTC 59 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not
turn “ON” the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 59 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a skewed sensor.
2. This test simulates a DTC 58. If the PCM recognizes the low signal voltage (high temperature), and the scan
displays 146°C (295°F) or greater, the PCM and wiring are OK.
3. This test checks if CKT 1227 is open. There should be 5 volts present at the sensor connector if measured
with J 39200.

Diagnostic Aids: Scan tool displays transmission fluid temperature in degrees. After transmission is operating,
the temperature should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
A faulty connection or an open in CKT 455 or CKT 1227 can result in a DTC 59.
The “Temperature to Resistance Value” scale in SECTION 7A14A may be used to check the TFT sensor at
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor. A “skewed” sensor can
result in firm shifts, or TCC complaints.

Circuit Description:
Hydraulically, the 3-2 control solenoid coordinates the apply rate of the 2-4 band with hydraulic release, of
the 3-4 clutch during a 3-2 downshift.
The PCM continually monitors the 3-2 circuit duty cycle depending on the commanded state of the circuit.
When the transmission is in first gear the duty cycle of the solenoid is equal to zero. When the transmission is in
second gear or higher the duty cycle of the solenoid will be about 90%. When the transmission downshifts, 3-2,
the duty cycle of the solenoid will drop.

DTC 66 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON,” and the voltage remains high (B+) for four seconds.
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF,” and the voltage remains low (zero volts) for four seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to):


• A delayed (soft) landing to third gear.
• Third gear starts.

DTC 66 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF”
then “ON.”

PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID (PCS) CIRCUIT
(CURRENT ERROR)
Circuit Description:
The pressure control solenoid is a PCM controlled device used to regulate transmission line pressure. The
PCM compares TP voltage, engine RPM and other inputs to determine the line pressure appropriate for a given
load. The PCM will regulate the pressure by applying a varying amperage to the pressure control solenoid. The
applied amperage can vary from 0.1 to 1.1 amp. The PCM then monitors the amperage at the return line.

DTC 73 Will Set When: The return amperage varies greater than 0.16 amp from the commanded amperage,
for at least one second, and no DTC 75 stored.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Full line pressure will be applied causing harsh shifts. DTC 73 will be
stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

SYSTEM VOLTAGE LOW
Circuit Description:
CKT 440 is the battery feed for the PCM. CKT 439 is the ignition voltage feed for the PCM.

DTC 75 Will Set When: The ignition is “ON” and PCM terminal “E l6” voltage is less than the graduated
scale of: -40°C (-40°F) = 7.3 volts, 90°C (194°F) = 10.3 volts, or 150°C (304°F) = 11.7 volts, with engine speed
greater than 1000 RPM for 4 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): During the time the failure is present, the pressure control solenoid is
turned “OFF,” soft landing to default third gear and TCC operation is inhibited. (The setting of additional
diagnostic trouble codes may result.) DTC 75 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 75 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for normal battery voltage between 9-15 volts.
2. This test checks if the low voltage display is due to the generator, CKT 440, or PCM, while the engine is
running. If the voltage is less than 8.6 volts, the PCM is OK.

Diagnostic Aids: CKT 440 supplies battery voltage to the PCM.


Charging battery with a battery charger and jump-starting engine may set DTC 53. If diagnostic trouble
code sets when an accessory is operated, check for poor connections or excessive current draw. Refer to SECTION
6D3 of appropriate service manual for circuit details. Also, check for poor connections at starter solenoid or
fusible link.

TR A N SM ISSIO N FLUID OVERTEMP
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly,
that controls the signal voltage to the PCM. The PCM applies voltage on CKT 1227 to the sensor. When the
transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 79 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates a transmission fluid temperature greater than 146°C (295°F)
and has not cooled to less than 137°C (295°F) for 30 minutes, and no DTC 58 or 59 set.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): DTC 79 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 79 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for skewed sensor or shorted circuit.
2. This test simulates a DTC 59.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227.
Scan tool TFT displays should rise steadily to about 100°C then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A14A may be used to test the transmission sensor
at the various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” sensor could
result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.
Check transmission fluid. Refer to “Fluid Checking Procedure.”

TCC PW M SOLENOID CIRCUIT FAULT
Circuit Description:
The TCC PWM is used in combination with the TCC solenoid to regulate fluid to the torque converter, and
is attached to the control valve body within the transmission. The Powertrain Control Module supplies a ground
allowing current to flow through the solenoid coil according to the duty cycle (percentage of ON and “OFF”
time). This current flow through the solenoid coil creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the solenoid core.
The magnetized core attracts the checkball to seat against spring pressure. This blocks the exhaust for the TCC
signal fluid and allows 2-3 drive fluid to feed the TCC signal circuit. The TCC signal fluid pressure acts on the
TCC regulator valve to regulate line pressure and to apply fluid pressure to the torque converter clutch shift
valve. When the TCC shift valve is in the apply position, regulated apply fluid pressure is directed through the
TCC valve to apply the torque converter clutch.

DTC 83 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON” and voltage remains high (B+).
or
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF” and voltage remains low (zero volts).
• All conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to):


• Inhibit TCC operation.
• Inhibit 4th gear operation if in hot mode.

DTC 83 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF” then
“O N ”

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test will check if the PCM is commanding the TCC solenoid “ON ”
2. This test will check for voltage to the solenoid.

T R A N SM ISSIO N ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

The transmission electrical connector is a very important part


of the transmission operating system. Any interference with
the electrical connection can cause the transmission to set
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and/or affect proper
operation.
VEHICLE H A R N E S S
The following items can affect the electrical connection:
- Bent pins in the connector from rough handling during
connection and disconnection.
- Wires backing away from the pins or coming uncrimped
(in either internal or external wiring harness).
- Dirt contamination entering the connector when
disconnected.
- Pins in the internal wiring connector backing out of the
connector or pushed out during reconnection.
- Excessive transmission fluid leaking into the connector,
wicking up into the external wiring harness, and degrading
the wire insulation.
- Water/moisture intrusion in the connector.
- Low pin retention in the external connector from excessive
connection and disconnection of the wiring connector
assembly.
- Pin corrosion from contamination.
- Broken/cracked connector assembly.

Points to remember whenworkingwiththe transmission


wiringconnectorassembly:
- To remove the connector, squeeze the two tabs toward
each other and pull straight up (Refer to the illustration).
- Carefully limit twisting or wiggling the connector during
removal. Bent pins can occur.
- D ONO Tpry the connector off with a screwdriver or
other tool.
- To reinstall the external wiring connector, first orient the
pins by lining up the arrows on each half of the connector.
Push the connector straight down into the transmission
without twisting or angling the mating parts.
- The connector should click into place with a positive feel
and/or noise.
- Whenever the transmission external wiring connector is
disconnected from the internal harness and the engine is
operating DTC(s) will set. Clear these DTC(s) after
reconnecting the external connector.

TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT)
SENSOR
Figure 10B-5
The TFT sensor is a thermistor (a device that
changes resistance according to changes in
temperature) used to indicate transmission fluid
temperature. High sensor resistance produces high
signal input voltage which corresponds to low fluid
temperature. Low sensor resistance produces low
signal input voltage which corresponds to high fluid
temperature. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal
input to determine the following:
• TCC apply and release schedules.
• Hot mode determination.
• Shift quality.
The TFT sensor is part of the internal wiring
harness within the transmission.

produces low signal input voltage which corresponds
to high engine coolant temperature. The PCM uses
the ECT sensor signal to determine the TCC apply
and release schedules. The ECT sensor is attached to
the engine assembly.

THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR


The Throttle Position (TP) sensor is a
potentiometer (a device for measuring an unknown
voltage or potential difference by comparison to a
standard voltage). The TP sensor sends a voltage to
the control module, varying from (approximately .5
volts) to (approximately 5 volts). This voltage signal
to the control module represents throttle shaft angle.
At closed throttle, the signal voltage to the control
module is approximately .5 volts. As the throttle shaft
angle increases the signal voltage increases to greater
than 4.5 volts at wide open throttle. The TP sensor is
attached to the throttle body assembly.

TRANSFER CASE SWITCH ASSEMBLY


This switch assembly is used to indicate the
position of the transfer case select lever. When four

0 voltage. The 4WD low signal input is used to correct
the transmission output speed signal from the VSS
buffer module to the PCM, to compensate for the
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) transfer case gear reduction. This switch is attached
SENSOR to the transfer case.

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is
a thermistor (a device that changes resistance
according to change in temperature) used to indicate

This device contains a permanent magnet
surrounded by a coil of wire producing a magnetic
field which is interrupted by rotor teeth cut into the
outside diameter of the forward clutch housing. As
the serrations interrupt the magnetic field an AC
voltage is generated in the circuit. This device is used
to provide an input speed signal to the control module.
The control module uses the input speed sensor signal

VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL (VSS) BUFFER


MODULE
The vehicle speed signal buffer module (VSS
buffer module) is an electronic device. The VSS buffer
module processes inputs from the vehicle speed sensor
and outputs various signals. The VSS buffer module
outputs a 40 pulse per revolution (PPR) signal. This
40 PPR signal is used by the control module to
determine transmission output speed. The VSS buffer
module is matched to the vehicle based on
transmission, final drive ratio and tire size. The VSS
buffer module is located on the right hand side of
instrument panel attached to the PCM bracket.

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK
(WITH TECH 1 SCAN TOOL)
Circuit Description:
The “On-Board Diagnostic System Check” is an organized approach to identifying a problem created by a
control module system malfunction. It must be the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis, because
it directs the service technician to the next logical step in diagnosing the complaint. Understanding the chart and
using it correctly will reduce diagnostic time and prevent the unnecessary replacement of good parts.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This step is a check for the proper operation of the MIL (Service Engine Soon). The MIL should be “ON”
steady.
2. Use TECH 1 to aid diagnosis, therefore, serial data must be available. If a PROM (MEM-CAL) error is
present, the PCM may have been able to flash DTC 12/51, but not enable serial data.
3. Although the PCM is powered up, a “Cranks But Will Not Run” symptom could exist because of a PCM or
system problem.
4. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or a driveability problem with no MIL. Refer to
“Diagnostic Trouble Code Identification” in this section for a list of valid DTC(s). An invalid DTC may be
the result of a faulty scan tool, PROM (MEM-CAL) or PCM.
5. Comparison of actual control system data with the Typical TECH 1 Data Values is a quick check to determine
if any parameter is not within limits. Keep in mind that a base engine problem (i.e., advanced cam timing)
may substantially alter sensor values.

4WD LOW SWITCH SIGNAL CHECK
Circuit Description:
The 4WD low circuit consists of a transfer case switch, front axle actuator, and wiring. The PCM supplies a
B+ voltage signal to the transfer case switch on CKT 1493. With 2WD or 4WD HI selected, no ground path is
provided for CKT 1493, and the voltage signal at the PCM will be B+. When 4WD low is selected, the transfer
case switch provides a ground for CKT 1493, and the PCM 4WD low signal CKT 1493 will change from B+ to
zero volts. The transfer case switch also completes CKT 50 (B+) to CKT 1296 to provide B+ to the front axle
actuator.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): No DTC(s) will be set, however, failures of the 4WD low circuit can
cause many types of complaints such as: early/late shifts, erratic shifts.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for proper circuit operation.
2. This test checks for a proper reference signal from the PCM.
3. This test checks the ability of the transfer case switch to ground the reference signal from the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids:
For further information, refer to SECTION 7D of the appropriate service manual.

TRANSMISSION RANGE (TR)
PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY CIRCUIT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Range (TR) switch assembly consists of five normally open pressure switches and is
attached to the valve body. The PCM supplies battery voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of
these circuits through various combinations of the pressure switches, the PCM detects what manual valve position
has been selected by the vehicle operator. With ignition “ON” and engine “OFF,” P/N will be indicated. When
transmission electrical connector is disconnected, the ground potential for the three range signals to the PCM
will be removed, and with ignition “ON,” D2 will be indicated.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks the indicated range signal to the manual valve position actually selected.
2. This test checks for correct voltage from the PCM to the transmission external connector.
3. This test checks for a short to ground from the PCM to the transmission external connector in any one of the
three circuits.

Diagnostic Aids:

DTC 24
VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) CIRCUIT LOW
(TRANS OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL)

Circuit Description:
The speed sensor circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, a Vehicle Speed Sensor buffer module,
4WD low switch (when needed), and wiring. Gear teeth pressed onto the output shaft induces an alternating
voltage into the sensor. This signal is transmitted to the VSS buffer module. The VSS buffer module compensates
for various final drive ratios. The VSS buffer module will also convert the AC VSS signal into a 40 Pulse Per
Revolution (PPR) DC signal on CKT 437 to indicate transmission output speed. On 4WD vehicles, the 4WD
low signal will also be used for adjustment of the 40 PPR signal to the PCM.

DTC 24 Will Set When:


• Not in P/N. • MAP is greater than 40 kPa.
• CKT 437 voltage is constant. • TP is between 10% and 100%.
• Engine speed is greater than 3000 RPM. • All conditions met for 3 seconds.
• Output speed is less than 200 RPM. • No DTC(s) 21, 22, 28, 33, or 34.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Second gear only at maximum line pressure.

DTC 24 Will Clear When: The ignition is cycled “OFF” then “ON.”

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for voltage to the VSS buffer module.
2. This test checks the ground circuit to the VSS buffer module.
3. This test checks the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) circuit at the VSS buffer module.

Circuit Description:
The Transmission Range (TR) switch assembly consists of five normally open pressure switches and is
attached to the valve body. The PCM supplies battery voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of
these circuits through various combinations of the pressure switches, the PCM detects what manual valve position
has been selected by the vehicle operator. With ignition “ON” and engine “OFF,” P/N will be indicated. When
the transmission electrical connector is disconnected, the ground potential for the three range signals to the
PCM will be removed, and with ignition “ON,” D2 will be indicated.

DTC 28 Will Set When: Range signals “A” and “C” are both zero volts “ON” for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Harsh shifts, drive 4 shift control. TCC will be inhibited, and if in hot
mode, there will be no fourth gear. DTC 28 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).

T R A N SM ISSIO N FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SEN SO R CIRCUIT LOW
(HIGH TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor that controls the signal voltage to the PCM. The PCM supplies a 5 volt
reference signal to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high
and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature of 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts. With a DTC 79
also set, check the transmission cooling system.

DTC 58 Will Set When:


• Signal voltage indicates TFT greater than 151°C (306°F).
• All conditions met for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM will use a warm default trans fluid temperature value.

DTC 58 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a short to ground or a skewed sensor.
2. This test checks for an internal fault within the transmission by creating an open.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227.
Scan tool TFT displays should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A17A may be used to test the TFT sensor at the
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor
could result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.

and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 59 Will Set When:


• Signal voltage indicates TFT less than -40°C (-40°F).
• All conditions met for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM will use a warm default trans fluid temperature value.

DTC 59 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This checks for entire circuit and indicates whether the malfunction is present.
2. This test simulates a DTC 58. If the PCM recognizes the low signal voltage (high temperature), and the scan
displays 151°C (305°F) or greater, the PCM and wiring are OK.
3. This test checks if CKT 1227 is open. There should be 5 volts present at the sensor connector if measured
with J 39200.

Diagnostic Aids: Scan tool displays transmission fluid temperature in degrees. After transmission is operating,
the temperature should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
A faulty connection or an open in CKT 455 or CKT 1227 can result in a DTC 59.
The “Temperature to Resistance Value” scale in SECTION 7A17A may be used to check the TFT sensor at
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor. A “skewed” sensor can
result in firm shifts, or TCC complaints.

The Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor that controls the signal voltage to the
PCM. The PCM supplies a 5 volt reference signal to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is
cold, the sensor resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 79 Will Set When:


• No DTC 58.

TCC PW M SOLENOID CIRCUIT FAULT
Circuit Description:
The TCC PWM solenoid is used to regulate fluid to the torque converter, and is attached to the control valve
body within the transmission. The Powertrain Control Module supplies a ground, through an internal Quad
Driver Module (QDM), allowing current to flow through the solenoid coil according to the duty cycle (percentage
of ON and “OFF” time). This current flow through the solenoid coil creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the
solenoid core. The magnetized core attracts the checkball to seat against spring pressure. This blocks the exhaust
for the TCC signal fluid and allows 2-3 drive fluid to feed the TCC signal circuit. The TCC signal fluid pressure
acts on the TCC regulator valve to regulate line pressure and to apply fluid pressure to the torque converter
clutch shift valve. When the TCC shift valve is in the apply position, regulated apply fluid pressure is directed
through the TCC valve to apply the torque converter clutch.

DTC 83 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON” and voltage remains high (B+).
or
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF” and voltage remains low (zero volts).
• All conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to):


• Inhibit TCC operation.
• Inhibit 4th gear operation if in hot mode.

DTC 83 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF” then
“ON.”

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test will check if the PCM is commanding the TCC solenoid “ON.”
2. This test will check for voltage to the solenoid.

Diagnostic Aids: Check all connections at the transmission pass-thru connector.

G ENERAL DESCRIPTION
SHIFT LIGHT SYSTEM
All manual transmission vehicles under 8500 GVW have a
shift light on the instrument panel. This light indicates the best
shift point for maximum fuel economy. The light is controlled
by the control module and is turned “ON” by grounding
CKT 456.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFT LIGHT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The control module uses information from the following inputs to control the shift light:
• Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
• Throttle Position (TP) sensor.
• Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).
• RPM.
The control module uses the measured RPM and the vehicle speed to calculate what gear the vehicle is in. It’s this calculation
that determines when the shift light should be turned “ON.”

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to


circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This should not turn “ ON” the shift light. If the light is
“ON,” there is a short to ground in CKT 456 wiring, or a
fault in the control module.
2. This should turn “ ON” the shift light.
3. This checks for an open in the shift light circuit, or a faulty
control module.

G ENERAL DESCRIPTION
A crankcase ventilation system is used to provide more
complete scavenging of crankcase vapors. Fresh air from the
air cleaner through a filter is supplied to the crankcase, mixed
with blow-by gases and then passed through a crankcase
ventilation valve into the intake manifold (Figure 11-1).
The primary control is through the crankcase ventilation
valve (Figure 11-2), which meters the flow at a rate depending
on manifold vacuum.
To maintain idle quality, the crankcase ventilation valve
restricts the flow when intake manifold vacuum is high. If
abnormal operating conditions arise, the system is designed to
allow excessive amounts of blow-by gases to back flow
through the crankcase vent tube into the air cleaner to be
consumed by normal combustion.

FUNCTIONAL CH ECK
With these systems, any blow-by in excess of the system
capacity (from a badly-worn engine, sustained heavy load, etc.)
is exhausted into the air cleaner and is drawn into the engine.
Proper operation of the crankcase ventilation system is
dependent upon a sealed engine. If oil sludging or dilution is
noted and the crankcase ventilation system is functioning
properly, check engine for possible cause and correct to ensure
that system will function as intended.
If an engine is idling rough, check for a clogged crankcase
ventilation valve, dirty vent filter, air cleaner element, or
plugged hose. Replace as required. Use the following

G ENERAL DESCRIPTION
To route cool air from the exterior of the engine
compartment to the intake manifold, an air intake system is
used. A filter is incorporated into the system to keep dirt from
entering the engine. Some applications also have a heated air
intake system for better driveability while the vehicle is
warming up. Below is a description of that system operation.

OPERATION
The heated air intake system (Figure 12-1) regulates
incoming air temperature without the use of vacuum. The air
regulating damper is controlled by a self-contained, wax-pellet
actuated assembly mounted in the air cleaner (Figure 12-2). 1 SNORKEL
When the incoming air is cold, the wax material sealed in the
actuator is in a solid (contracted) phase and the damper closes 2 TEMPERATURE SENSOR ACTUATOR
off the cold air inlet. This causes all incoming air to become 3 DAMPER ASSEMBLY 7S3810-6E
heated by the exhaust manifold. As the incoming air warms,
the wax material expands by changing to liquid phase and Figure 12-1 - Air Cleaner with Heated Air Intake
forces out a piston to reposition the damper. This allows for a System
cold/hot air mix, or for cold air only to enter the engine.
DIAGNOSIS

RESULTS OF INCO RRECT OPERATION


• Hesitation during warm-up can be caused by:
Heat stove tube disconnected.
Missing or damaged air cleaner-to-TBI gasket.
Loose air cleaner cover and air cleaner.
Missing air cleaner cover seal.
Stuck open damper door.
• Lack of power, sluggish, or spongy (on a hot engine) can
be caused by:
Stuck closed damper door.

AIR CLEAN ER FUNCTIONAL CHECK


1. Remove air cleaner assembly and cool to below 4°C (40°F).
The damper door should close to outside air (cold air).
2. Check the condition of air cleaner to throttle body gasket.
3. Reinstall air cleaner assembly and connect the heat stove
tube at air cleaner snorkel and exhaust manifold.
4. Start the engine. As the air cleaner warms, the damper
door should open slowly to outside air (cold air).
5. If the air cleaner fails to operate as described, check that
the calibrated spring is properly installed and damper door
is not binding.
6. If still inoperative after Step 5, replace wax pellet assembly
and re-check.

IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY CHECKS

BEFORE USING THIS SECTION


Before using this section you should have performed the “On-Board Diagnostic System Check” and determined that:
1. The control module and M IL (Service Engine Soon) are operating correctly.
2. There are no diagnostic trouble codes stored, or there is a diagnostic code but no M IL (Service Engine Soon).
• Several of the following symptom procedures call for a careful visual/physical check.
The importance of visual/phvsical checks cannot be over stressed, because they can lead to correcting a problem
without further checks and can save valuable time.

BEFORE STARTING
This check should include:
• Control module grounds for being clean, tight, and in their proper location. Refer to SECTION 1.
• Fuel lines, pipes and hoses for leaks or restrictions.
• Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks and proper connections, as shown on “Vehicle Emission Control Information”
label. Check thoroughly for any type of leak or restriction.
• Wiring for proper connections, pinches, and cuts. Refer to SECTION 3.
• The following symptom charts contain groups of possible causes for each symptom and cover several engines.
These procedures are not necessarily meant to be done in consecutive order. If Tech 1 scan tool
readings do not indicate the problems, then proceed in a logical order, easiest to check or most likely cause first.
To determine if a particular system or component is used on a specific vehicle, refer to the “Control Module
Wiring Diagrams” for application.

SYMPTOM
Verify the customer complaint, and locate the correct symptom in the table of contents. Check the items indicated
under that symptom.
INTERMITTENTS

(Page 1 of 2)
Definition: Problem may or may not turn “ON” the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).

PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Refer to “Important Preliminary Checks.”
DO NOT use the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) charts in SECTION 3 for intermittent problems. The fault must
be present to locate the problem. If a fault is intermittent, use of diagnostic trouble code charts may result in
replacement of good parts.

FAULTY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS OR WIRING


Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. Perform careful check of suspect
circuits for:
Poor mating of the connector halves, or terminals, not fully seated in the connector body (backed out).
Improperly formed or damaged terminals. All connector terminals in problem circuit should be carefully
reformed or replaced to insure proper contact tension.
Poor terminal to wire connection. This requires removing the terminal from the connector body to check. Refer
to “On-Vehicle Service” in SECTION 3.

ROAD TEST
If a visual/physical check does not locate the cause of the problem, the vehicle can be driven with a voltmeter
connected to a suspected circuit or a Tech 1 scan tool may be used. An abnormal voltage or scan reading, when the
problem occurs, indicates the problem may be in that circuit. If the wiring and connectors check OK, and a
diagnostic trouble code was stored for a circuit having a sensor, replace the sensor.
INTERMITTENTS

(Page 2 of 2)
Definition: Problem may or may not turn “ON” the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL), or store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).

INTERMITTENT “MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)”


• An intermittent MIL and No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), may be caused by:
Electrical system interference caused by a defective relay, control module driven solenoid, or switch. They can
cause a sharp electrical surge. Normally, the problem will occur when the faulty component is operated.
Improper installation of electrical devices, such as lights, 2-way radios, electric motors, etc.
Ignition secondary shorted to ground.
CKT 419 Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or CKT 451 (diagnostic “test” terminal) intermittently shorted to ground.
Control module grounds. Refer to “Component Locations,” in SECTION 1.

LOSS OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE MEMORY


• To check, disconnect Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor and idle engine until the “Malfunction Indicator
Lamp” comes “ON.” DTC 15 should be stored, and kept in memory when the ignition is turned “OFF” for at least
10 seconds. If not, the control module is faulty.

NOTICE: The PCM must be maintained at a
temperature below 85°C (185°F) at all times. This is most
essential if the vehicle is put through a paint baking process.
The PCM will become inoperative if its temperature exceeds
85°C (185°F). Therefore, it is recommended that temporary
insulation be placed around the PCM during the time the
vehicle is in a paint oven or other high temperature processes.

Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electronic components used in control systems are often


designed to carry very low voltage, and are very susceptible to
damage caused by electrostatic discharge. It is possible for less
than 100 volts of static electricity to cause damage to some
electronic components. By comparison, it takes as much as
4.000 volts for a person to even feel the zap of a static
discharge.
There are several ways for a person to become statically
charged. The most common methods of charging are by friction

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor


Figure 3-3
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is a thermistor
(a resistor which changes value based on temperature) mounted in
the engine coolant stream. Low coolant temperature produces a
high resistance (100,000 ohms at -40°C/-40°F) while high
temperature causes low resistance (70 ohms at 130°C/266°F).
The PCM supplies a 5 volt signal to the Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) sensor through a resistor in the PCM and
measures the voltage. The voltage will be high when the engine
is cold, and low when the engineis hot. By measuring the
voltage, the PCM knows the engine coolant temperature.
Engine coolant temperature affects fuel control and the glow

The PCM sends a 5 volt reference signal to the boost
sensor. As the manifold pressure changes, the electrical
resistance of the boost sensor also changes. By monitoring the
sensor output voltage, the PCM detects the boost pressure. A
high pressure (high voltage) requires more fuel. A lower
pressure (low voltage) required less fuel.
The control module uses the boost pressure signal to
control fuel delivery.

FUEL PUMP RELAY CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is in the CRANK position, the lift pump circuit is completed through the relay contacts. During this time,
oil pressure is building to the point of closing the contacts of the oil pressure switch. A minimum of 28 kPa (4 psi) is required to close the
switch contacts.
When the ignition is returned to the RUN position, the oil pressure of the running engine maintains electrical power to the lift
pump.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to Diagnostic Aids: If engine oil pressure drops below

2. This step checks voltage from the battery and the ground
circuit to the relay.
3. This test determines if there is voltage from the battery,
terminal “A” to terminal “D” on the relay connector.

SENSOR OUTPUT CHECK
Circuit Description:
An EGR control pressure/BARO sensor is used to monitor the amount of vacuum in the EGR circuit. It senses the actual vacuum in
the EGR vacuum line and sends a signal back to the PCM. The signal is compared to the EGR duty cycle calculated by the PCM. On
vehicles not equipped with EGR, this sensor is only used for a BARO reading.

A/C SIGNAL DIAGNOSIS


Circuit Pescription:
Turning “ON” the air conditioning supplies CKT 59 battery voltage to the A/C compressor clutch and to terminal “PB4” of the
PCM to increase and maintain idle speed.
The PCM does not control the A/C compressor clutch. Therefore, if A/C does not function, refer to the A/C section of the service
manual for diagnosis of the system.
RESTRICTED EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK

Proper diagnosis for a restricted exhaust system is essential before any components are replaced. The following procedure
may be used for diagnosis:

DIAGNOSIS:
1. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress, or possible internal muffler failure.
2. If there are no obvious reasons for the excessive backpressure, the catalytic converter is suspected to be restricted and
should be replaced using current recommended procedures. Refer to SECTION 6F of the appropriate service manual.

VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL BUFFER FAULT
Circuit Description:
The speed sensor circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, a vehicle speed sensor buffer module and wiring. Gear teeth
pressed on the output shaft induce an alternating current in the sensor. This signal is transmitted to the buffer. The buffer compensates
for various axle ratios and converts the signal into a square wave for use by the speedometer, cruise control, antilock brake and PCM.
The buffer sends two different signals to the PCM. The CKT 437 circuit relays the transmission output speed which is used to control
shift points, line pressure, TCC, DTC 24 and DTC 72. The CKT 834 circuit relays the vehicle speed which is used to control engine
operating functions and DTC 16. When DTC 24 or 72 is set, second gear only at maximum line pressure will occur.

DTC 16 Will Set When:


• Greater than 20 mph.
• 1000 to 4400 RPM.
• CKT 817 open or grounded.
• All conditions must be met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): No cruise control or fuel cutoff.

DTC 16 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF” then “ON.”

EGR CIRCUIT ERROR
Circuit Description:
The PCM operates a solenoid to control the EGR valve. This solenoid is normally open. By providing a ground path the PCM
energizes the solenoid which then allows vacuum to pass to the EGR.
During normal operation, the PCM compares its desired EGR signal with the EGR pressure signal and makes corrections in the
duty cycle accordingly. If there is a difference in the PCM command and what is at the EGR valved sensed by the EGR control
pressure/BARO sensor, the PCM makes minor adjustments to correct.

DTC 32 Will Set When:


• RPM greater than 506.
• No DTC 31 or 33 stored.
• 50 kPa difference between desired EGR and EGR pressure for 25.5 seconds.

The intake air temperature sensor is a thermistor that controls signal voltage to the PCM. When the air is cold, the sensor
resistance is high, therefore the PCM will see high signal voltage. As air warms, sensor resistance becomes less and voltage drops.

DTC 47 Will Set When:


• Engine coolant temperature less than 38°C (100°F).
• Intake air temperature is greater than 96°C (205°F) for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Poor performance during cold weather operation.

DTC 47 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

INJECTION PUMP CALIBRATION RESISTOR ERROR
Circuit Description:
The PCM uses a calibrated resistor mounted internally in the injection pump to determine fuel rates. The resistor value is stored
in the PCM memory. If the PCM memory has been disturbed or the PCM has been replaced, the PCM will relearn the resistor value
on the next ignition cycle.

DTC 56 Will Set When: PCM has lost its memory and is unable to read a resistor value on CKT 985 on the next
ignition cycle.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): A current and history DTC will store and turn “ON” the MIL. The PCM will
default to the lowest fuel table. Possible poor performance problem.

Circuit Description:
The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) module provides a voltage signal that changes relative to accelerator pedal position.
There are three sensors located within the APP module that are scaled differently.

DTC 65 Will Set When: PCM has recognized a “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor. The PCM compares all three sensors to each other
(percentage to voltage chart) and determines if there is a 6% difference between APP 1 and APP 2 and a 10 difference to APP 3.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The input from APP 3 sensor is ignored. A current and history DTC will set but it
will not turn “ON” a “Service Throttle Soon” lamp. Throttle will operate normally as long as there is only one malfunction present.
If there are two APP malfunctions present the PCM will then turn “ON” the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp and limit power. If a third
APP malfunction is present the “Service Throttle Soon” lamp will be “ON” and only allow the engine to operate at idle.

DTC 71
SET/COAST SWITCH FAULT
Circuit Pescription:
The cruise “ON/OFF,” “set/coast” and “resume/accel” switches are inputs to the fuel control portion of the PCM. These inputs
allow the PCM to control and hold a requested speed. CKT 84 supplies ignition voltage to the PCM when set/coast is depressed.

PTC 71 Will Set When:


• Cruise control “ON.”
• Ignition voltage on terminal “BD15” for more than 25.5 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM will disallow all cruise inputs. TCC shift schedules may be affected.

PTC 71 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF” then “ON.”

PTC Chart Test Pescription: Number(s) below Piagnostic Aids: Check for a set/coast switch stuck in

DTC 78
WASTEGATE SOLENOID FAULT
Circuit Description:
The PCM operates a solenoid to control boost. This solenoid is normally open. By providing a ground path the PCM energizes
the solenoid which then allows vacuum to pass to the wastegate valve.
During normal operation, the PCM compares its wastegate duty cycle signal with the boost signal and makes corrections in the
duty cycle accordingly.

DTC 78 Will Set When:


• RPM greater than 1800.
• Fuel rate greater than 20 mm.
• Boost pressure greater than or less than desired (internal to PCM).

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Boost will shut down. Reduce maximum fuel.

Weather-Pack

A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a rubber


seal, at the rear of the connector. This connector, which is used
in the engine compartment, protects against moisture and dirt,
which could create oxidation and deposits on the terminals.
This protection is important, because of the very low voltage
and current levels found in the electronic system.

“WATER IN FUEL” LAMP CIRCUIT CHECK


Circuit Description:
The fuel manager/filter assembly consists of the fuel heater, the water in fuel sensor, and a filter. The filter contains the “coalescer”
(the device that combines small droplets of water into larger ones) and the filter/separator.
A fuel lift pump delivers diesel fuel from the tank to the fuel filter. As fuel enters the filter, it passes first through the fuel heater.
The heater contains a thermostatic switch. The switch opens or closes to turn the heater “OFF” or “ON,” depending on the temperature
of the fuel.
The fuel then passes through the filter. Next the fuel flows through the water coalescer. Here the droplets of water in the fuel are
combined into larger drops, the drops fall to the water reservoir in the filter. When fuel flows from the fuel manager/filter assembly to
the injection pump, it is clean and free of water.
The solid-state water in fuel sensor supplies voltage to a probe. When the probe touches water, the module closes a switch. This
completes a circuit to ground to light the “Water in Fuel” lamp.
A time delay circuit in the water in fuel module grounds the lamp briefly to test the bulb each time the system is turned “ON.”
The fuel heater is operated by a built-in thermostatic switch. When the switch is closed, battery voltage is supplied to the heater.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
In the diesel engine, air alone is compressed in the
cylinder; then, after the air has been compressed, a charge of
fuel is sprayed into the cylinder and ignition occurs, due to the
heat of compression. Eight glow plugs are used to preheat the
chamber as an aid to starting (Figure 7-1).
Control of the Glow Plugs has been accomplished by
moving the logic for controlling the heat of the plugs to the
PCM. The new logic can incorporate the higher accuracy of
digital processing compared to the previous analog controller.
Additionally, logic involving engine speed and estimates of
engine combustion can be added to the traditional time and
temperature data used in the previous controller. This capability
yields more optimum heat times for the glow plugs, thus
pre-glow times can be kept to a minimum for short wait to
crank times and maximum glow plug durability.

GLOW PLUG SYSTEM CHECK


Circuit Description:
The glow plug system is used to assist in providing the heat required to begin combustion during engine starting at cold ambient
temperatures. The glow plugs are heated before and during cranking, as well as initial engine operation. A DTC 29 will be set when
the glow plug relay output is found to have a fault. This can be found by comparing glow plug feedback voltage to ignition voltage.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to


circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This step determines if the glow plugs are faulty or if the
problem lies in the wiring portion of the circuit.
2. If the relay contacts are shorted together, there will be 12
volts supplied to the glow plugs at all times. Since these are
6 volt glow plugs, they will be damaged by the constant
high voltage.

TRANSMISSION ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

The transmission electrical connector is a very important part


of the transmission operating system. Any interference with
the electrical connection can cause the transmission to set
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and/or affect proper
operation.
VEHICLE HARNESS
The following items can affect the electrical connection:
- Bent pins in the connector from rough handling during
connection and disconnection.
- Wires backing away from the pins or coming uncrimped
(in either internal or external wiring harness).
- Dirt contamination entering the connector when
disconnected.
- Pins in the internal wiring connector backing out of the
connector or pushed out during reconnection.
- Excessive transmission fluid leaking into the connector,
wicking up into the external wiring harness, and degrading
the wire insulation.
- Water/moisture intrusion in the connector.
- Low pin retention in the external connector from excessive
connection and disconnection of the wiring connector
assembly.
- Pin corrosion from contamination.
- Broken/cracked connector assembly.

Points to remember when working with the transmission


wiring connector assembly:

- To remove the connector, squeeze the two tabs toward


each other and pull straight up (Refer to the illustration).
- Carefully limit twisting or wiggling the connector during
removal. Bent pins can occur.
- DO NOT pry the connector off with a screwdriver or
other tool.
- To reinstall the external wiring connector, first orient the
pins by lining up the arrows on each half of the connector.
Push the connector straight down into the transmission
without twisting or angling the mating parts.
- The connector should click into place with a positive feel
and/or noise.
- Whenever the transmission external wiring connector is
disconnected from the internal harness and the engine is
operating DTC(s) will set. Clear these DTC(s) after
reconnecting the external connector.

TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT)
SENSOR
Figure 10A-5
The TFT sensor is a thermistor (a device that
changes resistance according to changes in
temperature) used to indicate transmission fluid
temperature. High sensor resistance produces high
signal input voltage which corresponds to low fluid
temperature. Low sensor resistance produces low
signal input voltage which corresponds to high fluid
temperature. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal
input to determine the following:
• TCC apply and release schedules.
• Hot mode determination.
• Shift quality.
The TFT sensor is part of the transmission range

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK
(WITH TECH 1 SCAN TOOL)
Circuit Description:
The “On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check” is an organized approach to identifying a problem created
by a control module system malfunction. It must be the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis.
this will direct the service technician to the next logical step in diagnosing the complaint. Understanding the
chart and using it properly will reduce diagnostic time and prevent the unnecessary replacement of good parts.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. When the ignition switch is cycled to “ON,” the MIL should turn “ON” briefly, then “OFF” briefly, then
remain “ON” steady. This sequence will determine that the vehicle diagnostics are operational.
2. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or driveability problem.
3. Although the control module is powered up, a symptom could exist because of a system fault.
4. Use Tech 1 to aid diagnosis, therefore, serial data must be available. If a PROM (MEM-CAL) error is
present, the PCM may have been able to flash DTC 12/51, but not enable serial data.
5. Although the PCM is powered up, a “Cranks But Will Not Run” symptom could exist because of a PCM or
system problem.
6. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or driveability problem with no MIL. Refer to
“Diagnostic Trouble Code Identification” in this section for a list of valid DTC(s). An invalid DTC may be
the result of a faulty scan tool, PROM or PCM.
7. Comparison of actual control system data with the Typical Tech 1 Data Values is a quick check to determine
if any parameter is not within limits. A base engine problem (i.e., advanced cam timing may substantially
alter sensor values).
NOTICE: The PCM utilizes a 24 pin “Pink” connector, a 32 pin “Pink” connector and a 32 pin “Blue”
connector. The 24 pin “Pink” connector is labeled “A” and “B”, the 32 pin “Pink” connector is labeled “C”
and “D ” and the 32 pin “Blue” connector is labeled “C and “D ”. When referencing PCM connector pinouts,
the “Blue” PCM connector will be referred to as the “E” and “F” connector.

1. Warm the transmission to operating temperature by driving the vehicle about 15 miles (24 km). Operating temperature is
180-200°F (82-94°C).
2. Park vehicle on a level surface, place shift lever in “P” park and apply the parking brake.
3. Check fluid level on the dipstick (read the lower level).
4. If fluid level is low, DEXRON®-III Automatic Transmissions Fluid is preferred, if unavailable DEXRON®-IIE is
acceptable, add only enough to bring the fluid level into the hot area.
* It is important to check fluid level when the transmission has reached operating temperature. The hot range is calibrated
to correspond to the correct fluid level range for fluid between 180 and 200°F (82-94°C).

4WD LOW SWITCH CHECK
(WITH MECHANICAL SHIFT)
Circuit Description:
The 4WD low circuit consists of a 4WD indicator assembly, a selector switch assembly, front axle switch
and wiring. When the operator moves the transfer case select lever to 4WD low, the selector switch completes
CKT 39 to CKT 150. When the circuit is complete the 4WD low indicator lamp will illuminate, CKT 1694 to
the PCM will change from B+ to zero. The front axle switch will close and complete CKT 1695 to CKT 150.
The front axle switch will modify antilock brakes and illuminate the front axle lamp. The front axle switch does
not effect CKT 1694 signal input to the PCM because the switch is also closed in the 4WD high position. The
4WD low switch signal is used to correct the transmission output speed signal from the Vehicle Speed Signal
(VSS) Buffer Module to the PCM to compensate for transfer case gear reduction.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): No DTC(s) will be set, however, if CKT 1694 is shorted to B+, the
transmission will have late or no upshifts in 4WD low. If CKT 1694 is shorted to ground or open, the transmis­
sion will have an early shift pattern.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks for mechanical adjustment and ignition feed.
2. This test checks the integrity of the 4WD low circuit.
3. This test checks the selector switch.

Diagnostic Aids:
For further information, refer to SECTION 7D of the appropriate service manual. For further information
on the 4WD indicator refer to SECTION 8B of the appropriate service manual.

PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY CIRCUIT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Range (TR) switch assembly consists of five pressure switches (two normally closed and
three normally open), and a TFT sensor combined into one unit and mounted on the valve body. The PCM
supplies battery voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of these circuits through various
combinations of the pressure switches, the PCM detects what manual valve position has been selected by the
vehicle operator. With ignition “ON” and engine “OFF,” P/N will be indicated. When transmission electrical
connector is disconnected, the ground potential for the three range signals to the PCM will be removed, and with
ignition “ON,” D2 will be indicated.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks the indicated range signal to the manual valve position actually selected.
2. This test checks for correct voltage from the PCM to the transmission external connector.
3. This test checks for a short to ground from the PCM to the transmission external connector in any one of the
three circuits.

Diagnostic Aids:

DTC 24
VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) CIRCUIT LOW
(TRANS OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL)

Circuit Description:
The speed sensor circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, a Vehicle Speed Sensor buffer module,
4WD low switch (when needed), and wiring. Gear teeth pressed onto the output shaft induces an alternating
voltage into the sensor. This signal is transmitted to the VSS buffer module. The VSS buffer module compensates
for various final drive ratios. The VSS buffer module will also convert the AC VSS signal into a 40 Pulse Per
Revolution (PPR) DC signal on CKT 437 to indicate transmission output speed. On 4WD vehicles, the 4WD
low signal will also be used for adjustment of the 40 PPR signal to the PCM.

DTC 24 Will Set When:


• Not in P/N. • MAP is less than 100 kPa.
• CKT 437 voltage is constant. • TP is between 10% and 100%.
• Engine speed is greater than 3000 RPM. • All conditions met for 3 seconds.
• Output speed is less than 250 RPM. • No DTC(s) 21, 22, 28, 33, or 34.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Second gear only at maximum line pressure.

DTC 24 Will Clear W hen: The ignition is cycled “OFF” then “ON.”

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for voltage to the VSS buffer module.
2. This test checks the ground circuit to the VSS buffer module.
3. This test checks the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) circuit at the VSS buffer module.
4. This test checks for an output speed signal from the VSS buffer module.

Diagnostic Aids:
• DTC 24 will set when no vehicle speed is detected at start off.
• DTC 72 will set when vehicle speed has been detected and is lost.

SYSTEM VOLTAGE HIGH
DTC 58
TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW
(HIGH TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly, that controls the signal voltage to
the PCM. The PCM applies voltage on CKT 1227 to the sensor. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor
resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to the normal transmission operating temperature of 100°C
(212°F), the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to 1.5 to 2.0 volts. With a DTC 79 also set,
check the transmission cooling system.

DTC 58 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates TFT greater than 151°C (306°F) for 1 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): When DTC 58 is set, the transmission will use a warm value for
operation, but the scan tool will display the actual fluid temperature. The TCC solenoid will be “ON” in third,
and fourth gears. The shifts will occur early. DTC 58 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON”
the M IL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 58 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a short to ground or a skewed sensor.
2. This test checks for an internal fault within the transmission by creating an open.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227. Scan tool TFT display
should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A14A may be used to test the TFT sensor at the
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor
could result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.
DTC 58
TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR
CIRCUIT LOW
DTC 59
TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH
(LOW TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly, that controls the signal voltage to
the PCM. The PCM applies 5 volts to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor
resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to the normal transmission operating temperature of 100°C
(212°F), the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases at about 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 59 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates TFT less than -40°C (-40°F), for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): When DTC 59 is set, the transmission will use a warm value for
operation, but, the scan tool will display the actual fluid temperature.
When DTC is set, the TCC may not apply properly. DTC 59 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not
turn “ON” the M IL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 59 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a skewed sensor.
2. This test simulates a DTC 58. If the PCM recognizes the low signal voltage (high temperature), and the scan
displays 146°C (295°F) or greater, the PCM and wiring are OK.
3. This test checks if CKT 1227 is open. There should be 5 volts present at the sensor connector if measured
with J 39200.

Diagnostic Aids: Scan tool displays transmission fluid temperature in degrees. After transmission is operating,
the temperature should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
A faulty connection or an open in CKT 452 or CKT 1227 can result in a DTC 59.
The “Temperature to Resistance Value” scale in SECTION 7A14A may be used to check the TFT sensor at
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor. A “skewed” sensor can
result in firm shifts, or TCC complaints.

3-2 CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT FAULT
Circuit Description:
Hydraulically, the 3-2 control solenoid coordinates the apply rate of the 2-4 band with hydraulic release, of
the 3-4 clutch during a 3-2 downshift.
The PCM continually monitors the 3-2 circuit duty cycle depending on the commanded state of the circuit.
When the transmission is in first gear the duty cycle of the solenoid is equal to zero. When the transmission is in
second gear or higher the duty cycle of the solenoid will be about 90%. When the transmission downshifts, 3-2,
the duty cycle of the solenoid will drop.

DTC 66 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON,” and the voltage remains high (B+) for four seconds.
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF,” and the voltage remains low (zero volts) for four seconds.

VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) CIRCUIT LOSS
(TRAIMS OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL)
Circuit Description:
The speed sensor circuit consists of a magnetic induction type sensor, a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) buffer
module, 4WD low switch (when needed), and wiring. Gear teeth pressed onto the output shaft induces an
alternating voltage into the sensor. This signal is transmitted to the VSS buffer module. The VSS buffer module
compensates for various final drive ratios. The VSS buffer module will also convert the AC VSS signal into a 40
Pulse Per Revolution (PPR) DC signal on CKT 437 to indicate transmission output speed. On 4WD vehicles,
the 4WD low signal will also be used for adjustment of the 40 PPR signal to the PCM.

PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID (PCS) CIRCUIT
(CURRENT ERROR)
Circuit Description:
The pressure control solenoid is a PCM controlled device used to regulate transmission line pressure. The
PCM compares TP voltage, engine RPM and other inputs to determine the line pressure appropriate for a given
load. The PCM will regulate the pressure by applying a varying amperage to the pressure control solenoid. The
applied amperage can vary from 0.1 to 1.1 amp. The PCM then monitors the amperage at the return line.

DTC 73 Will Set When: The return amperage varies greater than 0.16 amp from the commanded amperage,
for at least one second, and no DTC 75 stored.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Full line pressure will be applied causing harsh shifts. DTC 73 will be
stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

SYSTEM VOLTAGE LOW
Circuit Description:
CKT 440 is the battery feed for the PCM. CKT 439 is the ignition voltage feed for the PCM.

DTC 75 Will Set When: The ignition is “ON” and PCM terminal “E l” voltage is less than the graduated scale
of: -40°C (-40°F) = 7.3 volts, 90°C (194°F) = 10.3 volts, or 150°C (304°F) = 11.7 volts, with engine speed
greater than 1000 RPM for 4 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): During the time the failure is present, the pressure control solenoid is
turned “OFF,” soft landing to default third gear and TCC operation is inhibited. (The setting of additional
diagnostic trouble codes may result.) DTC 75 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
M IL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 75 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for normal battery voltage between 9-15 volts.
2. This test checks if the low voltage display is due to the generator, CKT 440, or PCM, while the engine is
running. If the voltage is less than 8.6 volts, the PCM is OK.

Diagnostic Aids: CKT 440 supplies battery voltage to the PCM.


Charging battery with a battery charger and jump-starting engine may set DTC 53. If diagnostic trouble
code sets when an accessory is operated, check for poor connections or excessive current draw. Refer to SECTION

DTC 79
TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERTEMP
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor within the TR pressure switch assembly,
that controls the signal voltage to the PCM. The PCM applies voltage on CKT 1227 to the sensor. When the
transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 79 Will Set When: Signal voltage indicates a transmission fluid temperature greater than 146°C (295°F)
and has not cooled to less than 137°C (295°F) for 30 minutes, and no DTC 58 or 59 set.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): DTC 79 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
M IL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 79 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for skewed sensor or shorted circuit.
2. This test simulates a DTC 59.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227.
Scan tool TFT displays should rise steadily to about 100°C then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance ”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A 14A may be used to test the transmission sensor
at the various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” sensor could
result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.
Check transmission fluid. Refer to “Fluid Checking Procedure.”

DTC 83
TCC PWM SOLENOID CIRCUIT FAULT
Circuit Description:
The TCC PWM is used in combination with the TCC solenoid to regulate fluid to the torque converter, and
is attached to the control valve body within the transmission. The Powertrain Control Module supplies a ground
allowing current to flow through the solenoid coil according to the duty cycle (percentage of ON and “OFF”
time). This current flow through the solenoid coil creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the solenoid core.
The magnetized core attracts the checkball to seat against spring pressure. This blocks the exhaust for the TCC
signal fluid and allows 2-3 drive fluid to feed the TCC signal circuit. The TCC signal fluid pressure acts on the
TCC regulator valve to regulate line pressure and to apply fluid pressure to the torque converter clutch shift
valve. When the TCC shift valve is in the apply position, regulated apply fluid pressure is directed through the
TCC valve to apply the torque converter clutch.

DTC 83 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON” and voltage remains high (B+).
or
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF” and voltage remains low (zero volts).
• All conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to):


• Inhibit TCC operation.
• Inhibit 4th gear operation if in hot mode.

DTC 83 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist, and the ignition switch is cycled “OFF” then
“ON.”

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test will check if the PCM is commanding the TCC solenoid “ON.”

TRANSMISSION ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

The transmission electrical connector is a very important part


of the transmission operating system. Any interference with
the electrical connection can cause the transmission to set
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and/or affect proper
operation.
VEHICLE HARNESS
The following items can affect the electrical connection:
- Bent pins in the connector from rough handling during
connection and disconnection.
- Wires backing away from the pins or coming uncrimped
(in either internal or external wiring harness).
- D irt contam ination entering the connector when
disconnected.
- Pins in the internal wiring connector backing out of the
connector or pushed out during reconnection.
- Excessive transmission fluid leaking into the connector,
wicking up into the external wiring harness, and degrading
the wire insulation.
- Water/moisture intrusion in the connector.
- Low pin retention in the external connector from excessive
connection and disconnection of the wiring connector
assembly.
- Pin corrosion from contamination.
- Broken/cracked connector assembly.

Points to remember when working with the transmission


wiring connector assembly:

- To remove the connector, squeeze the two tabs toward


each other and pull straight up (Refer to the illustration).
- Carefully limit twisting or wiggling the connector during
removal. Bent pins can occur.
- D O NOT pry the connector off with a screwdriver or
other tool.
- To reinstall the external wiring connector, first orient the
pins by lining up the arrows on each half of the connector.
Push the connector straight down into the transmission
without twisting or angling the mating parts.
- The connector should click into place with a positive feel
and/or noise.
- Whenever the transmission external wiring connector is
disconnected from the internal harness and the engine is
operating DTC(s) w ill set. Clear these DTC(s) after
reconnecting the external connector.

TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT)
SENSOR
Figure 10B-5
The TFT sensor is a thermistor (a device that
changes resistance according to changes in
temperature) used to indicate transmission fluid
temperature. High sensor resistance produces high
signal input voltage which corresponds to low fluid
temperature. Low sensor resistance produces low
signal input voltage which corresponds to high fluid
temperature. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal
input to determine the following:
• TCC apply and release schedules.
• Hot mode determination.
• Shift quality.
The TFT sensor is part of the internal wiring
harness within the transmission.

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is
a thermistor (a device that changes resistance
according to change in temperature) used to indicate
engine coolant temperature. High sensor resistance
produces signal input voltage which corresponds to
low engine temperature. Low sensor resistance
produces low signal input voltage which corresponds
to high engine coolant temperature. The PCM uses

• Calculate gear ratio.
VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL (VSS) BUFFER
MODULE
The vehicle speed signal buffer module (VSS
buffer module) is an electronic device. The VSS buffer
module processes inputs from the vehicle speed sensor
and outputs various signals. The VSS buffer module
outputs a 40 pulse per revolution (PPR) signal. This
40 PPR signal is used by the PCM to determine
transmission output speed. The VSS buffer module is
matched to the vehicle based on transmission, final
drive ratio and tire size. The VSS buffer module is
located on the left hand side of instrument panel
attached to the parking brake lever assembly.

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK
(WITH TECH 1 SCAN TOOL)
Circuit Description:
The “On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check” is an organized approach to identifying a problem created
by a control module system malfunction. It must be the starting point for any driveability complaint diagnosis,
this will direct the service technician to the next logical step in diagnosing the complaint. Understanding the
chart and using it properly will reduce diagnostic time and prevent the unnecessary replacement of good parts.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. When the ignition switch is cycled to “ON,” the MIL should turn “ON” briefly, then “OFF” briefly, then
remain “ON” steady. This sequence will determine that the vehicle diagnostics are operational.
2. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or driveability problem.
3. Although the control module is powered up, a symptom could exist because of a system fault.
4. Use TECH 1 to aid diagnosis, therefore, serial data must be available. If a PROM (MEM-CAL) error is
present, the PCM may have been able to flash DTC 12/51, but not enable serial data.
5. Although the PCM is powered up, a “Cranks But Will Not Run” symptom could exist because of a PCM or
system problem.
6. This step will isolate if the customer complaint is a MIL or driveability problem with no MIL. Refer to
“Diagnostic Trouble Code Identification” in this section for a list of valid DTC(s). An invalid DTC may be
the result of a faulty scan tool, PROM or PCM.
7. Comparison of actual control system data with the Typical TECH 1 Data Values is a quick check to determine
if any parameter is not within limits. A base engine problem (i.e., advanced cam timing) may substantially
alter sensor values.
NOTICE: The PCM utilizes a 24 pin “Pink” connector, a 32 pin “Pink” connector and a 32 pin “Blue”
connector. The 24 pin “Pink” connector is labeled “A” and “B,” the 32 pin “Pink connector is labeled “C”
and “D” and the 32 pin “Blue” connector is labeled “C” and “D .” When referencing PCM connector pinouts,
the “Blue” PCM connector will be referred to as the “E” and “F” connector.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD)
SYSTEM CHECK
(WITH TECH 1 SCAN TOOL)

IF PCM IS FAULTY AND MUST BE REPLACED, "TDC OFFSET" MUST BE PROGRAMMED INTO THE NEW PCM.
REFER TO "ON-VEHICLE SERVICE" IN THIS SECTION.

* IN SECTION 3
If after completing the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system check and finding the TECH 1Scan Tool diagnostics
functioning properly and no DTC(s) displayed, the “Transmission TECH 1 Scan Tool Values” may be used for
comparison with values obtained on the vehicle being diagnosed. The “Transmission TECH 1 Scan Tool Values”
are an average of display values recorded from normally operating vehicles and are intended to represent what a
normally functioning system would display.
A SCAN TOOL THAT DISPLAYS FAULTY DATA SHOULD NOT BE USED, AND THE
PROBLEM SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE USE OF A FAULTY
SCAN TOOL CAN RESULT IN MISDIAGNOSIS AND UNNECESSARY PARTS
REPLACEMENT.
Only the parameters listed below are used in this manual for diagnosing. If a scan tool displays other parameters,
the values are not recommended by General Motors for use in diagnosing. For further description on the values and
use of the TECH 1 Scan Tool to diagnose PCM inputs, refer to “General Description.” If all values are within the
range illustrated, refer to SECTION 7A14A (4L60-E) or 7A17A (4L80-E) “Functional Test Procedure.”

4WD LOW SWITCH SIGNAL CHECK
Circuit Description:
The 4WD low circuit consists of a transfer case switch, front axle actuator, and wiring. The PCM supplies a
B+ voltage signal to the transfer case switch on CKT 1493. With 2WD or 4WD HI selected, no ground path is
provided for CKT 1493, and the voltage signal at the PCM will be B+. When 4WD low is selected the transfer
case switch provides a ground for CKT 1493 and the PCM 4WD low signal CKT 1493 will change from B+ to
zero volt. The transfer case switch also completes CKT 50 (B+) to CKT 1296 to provide B+ to the front axle
actuator.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Failures of the 4WD low circuit can cause many types of complaints
such as: early/late shifts, erratic shifts.

Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic charts.
1. This test checks for proper circuit operation.
2. This test checks for a proper reference signal from the PCM.
3. This test checks the ability of the transfer case switch to ground the reference signal from the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids:
For further information, refer to SECTION 7D of the appropriate service manual. For further information
on the 4WD indicator refer to SECTION 38A of the electrical diagrams in this manual.

TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW
(HIGH TEMPERATURE INDICATED)
Circuit Description:
The TFT sensor is a thermistor that controls the signal voltage to the PCM. The PCM supplies a 5 volt
reference signal to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high
and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts. With a DTC 79
also set, check the transmission cooling system.

DTC 58 Will Set When:


• Signal voltage indicates TFT greater than 151°C (306°F).
• All conditions are met for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM will use a warm default trans fluid temperature value.

DTC 58 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a short to ground or a “skewed” sensor.
2. This test checks for an internal fault within the transmission by creating an open.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227.
Scan tool TFT display should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A17A may be used to test the TFT sensor at the
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor
could result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.

The TFT sensor is a thermistor that controls the signal voltage to the PCM. The PCM supplies a 5 volt
reference signal to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high
and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 59 Will Set When:


• Signal voltage indicates TFT less than -40°C (-40°F).
• All conditions are met for 1 second.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): The PCM will use a warm default trans fluid temperature value.

DTC 59 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This checks the entire circuit and indicates whether the malfunction is present.
2. This test simulates a DTC 58. If the PCM recognizes the low signal voltage (high temperature), and the scan
tool displays 151°C (305°F) or greater, the PCM and wiring are OK.
3. This test checks if CKT 1227 is open. There should be 5 volts present at the sensor connector if measured
with J 39200.

Diagnostic Aids: Scan tool displays transmission fluid temperature in degrees. After transmission is operating,
the temperature should rise steadily to about 100°C (212°F) then stabilize.
A faulty connection or an open in CKT 452 or CKT 1227 can result in a DTC 59.
The “Temperature to Resistance Value” scale in SECTION 7A17A may be used to check the TFT sensor at
various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” (mis-scaled) sensor. A “skewed” sensor can
result in firm shifts, or TCC complaints.

Circuit Description:
The pressure control solenoid is a PCM controlled device used to regulate transmission line pressure. The
PCM compares TP voltage, engine RPM and other inputs to determine the line pressure appropriate for a given
load. The PCM will regulate the pressure by applying a varying amperage to the pressure control solenoid. The
applied amperage can vary from 0.1 to 1.1 amp. The PCM then monitors the amperage at the return line.

DTC 73 Will Set When: The return amperage varies greater than 0.16 amp from the commanded amperage,
for at least one second, and no DTC 75 stored.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): Full line pressure will be applied causing harsh shifts. DTC 73 will be

SYSTEM VOLTAGE LOW
Circuit Description:
CKT 440 is the battery feed for the PCM. CKT 439 is the ignition voltage feed for the PCM.

DTC 75 Will Set When: The ignition is “ON” and PCM terminal “A 12” voltage is less than the graduated
scale of: -40°C (-40°F) = 7.3 volts, 90°C (194°F) = 10.3 volts, or 150°C (304°F) = 11.7 volts, with engine speed
greater than 1000 RPM for 4 seconds.

Action Taken (PCM will default to): During the time the failure is present, the pressure control solenoid is
turned “OFF,” soft landing to default second gear and TCC operation is inhibited. (The setting of additional
diagnostic trouble codes may result.) DTC 75 will be stored in the PCM memory but will not turn “ON” the
M IL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp).

DTC 75 Will Clear When: The fault condition(s) no longer exist.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for normal battery voltage between 9-15 volts.
2. This test checks if the low voltage display is due to the generator, CKT 440, or PCM, while the engine is
running. If the voltage is less than 8.6 volts, the PCM is OK.

Diagnostic Aids: CKT 440 supplies battery voltage to the PCM.


Charging battery with a battery charger and jump-starting engine may set DTC 52/DTC53. If diagnostic
trouble code sets when an accessory is operated, check for poor connections or excessive current draw. Refer to
SECTION 6D3 of appropriate service manual for circuit details. Also, check for poor connections at starter
solenoid or fusible link.

TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERTEMP
Circuit Description:
The Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor that controls the signal voltage to the
PCM. The PCM supplies a 5 volt reference signal to the sensor on CKT 1227. When the transmission fluid is
cold, the sensor resistance is high and the PCM will sense high signal voltage.
As the transmission fluid temperature warms to normal transmission operating temperature 100°C (212°F),
the sensor resistance becomes less and the voltage decreases to approximately 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

DTC 79 Will Set When:


• No DTC 58.
• Trans fluid temp greater than 146°C (295°F).
• All conditions met for 30 minutes.

DTC 79 Will Clear When: The fault condition no longer exists.

DTC Chart Test Description: Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the diagnostic chart.
1. This test checks for a “skewed” sensor or shorted circuit.
2. This test simulates a DTC 59.

Diagnostic Aids: Check harness routing for a potential short to ground in CKT 1227.
Scan tool TFT display should rise steadily to about 100°C then stabilize.
Refer to “PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance.”
The temperature to resistance value scale in SECTION 7A17A may be used to test the transmission sensor
at the various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a “skewed” sensor. A “skewed” sensor could
result in delayed garage shifts or TCC complaints.
Check transmission fluid. Refer to “Fluid Checking Procedure.”

TCC PWM SOLENOID CIRCUIT FAULT
Circuit Description:
The PCM supplies a ground, through an internal Quad-Driver Module (QDM), allowing current to flow
through the solenoid coil according to the duty cycle (percentage of ON and “OFF” time). This current flow
through the solenoid coil creates a magnetic field that magnetizes the solenoid core. The magnetized core
attracts the checkball to seat against spring pressure. This blocks the exhaust for the TCC signal fluid and allows
2-3 drive fluid to feed the TCC signal circuit. The TCC signal fluid pressure acts on the TCC regulator valve to
regulate line pressure and to apply fluid pressure to the torque converter clutch shift valve. When the TCC shift
valve is in the apply position, regulated apply fluid pressure is directed through the TCC valve to apply the
torque converter clutch.

DTC 83 Will Set When:


• The PCM commands the solenoid “ON” and voltage remains high (B+).
or
• The PCM commands the solenoid “OFF” and voltage remains low (zero volts).
• All conditions met for 2 seconds.

VOLTMETER - Voltage position measures magnitude of
voltage when connected in parallel to an existing circuit.
A digital voltmeter with a 10 megohm input impedance is
used because this type of meter will not load down the
circuit and result in faulty readings. Some circuits require
accurate low voltage readings because they have a very
high resistance.
AMMETER - When used as an ammeter, this meter
accurately measures extremely low current flow. Refer
to meter instructions for more information.
..999*9 • Selector must be set properly for both function and
range. DC is used for most automotive measurements.
OHMMETER - Measures resistance of circuit directly in
ohms.
• OL display in all ranges indicates open circuit.
• Zero display in all ranges indicates a short circuit.
• An intermittent connection in a circuit may be
indicated by a digital reading that will not stabilize on
the circuit.
• Range Switch - Automatic and Manual.
HIGH IMPEDANCE MULTIMETER 400Q - Reads ohms directly
(DIGITAL VOLTMETER-DVM) 4KQ, 40KQ, 400K& - Reads ohms in thousands

INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS


Most intermittents are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring, although occasionally a sticking
relay or solenoid can be a problem. Some items to check
are:
• Poor mating of connector halves, or terminals not fully
seated in the connector body (backed out).
• Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. The terminals must
be clean and free of any foreign material which could
impede proper terminal contact.
• Damaged connector body, exposing the terminals to
moisture and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper
terminal orientation with the component or mating

CIRCUIT PROTECTION DEVICES
There are three basic types of circuit protection
devices: Circuit Breaker, Fuse and Fusible Link. SIDE

CIRCUIT BREAKERS
A circuit breaker is a protective device designed to JL
open the circuit when a current load is in excess of rated Fuse Element
breaker capacity. If there is a short or other type of
overload condition in the circuit, the excessive current will
open the circuit between the circuit breaker terminals.
There are two basic types of circuit breakers used in GM
vehicles: cycling and non-cycling.

CYCLING CIRCUIT BREAKER


The cycling breaker will open due to heat generated
when excessive current passes through it for a period of
time. Once the circuit breaker cools, it will close again Autofuse Minifuse
after a few seconds. If the cause of the high current is still
present it will open again. It will continue to cycle open 6 -7 -9 4

AUTOFUSE
The Autofuse, normally referred to simply as "Fuse,"

Compared to a fusible link or a Pacific Fuse element,
the Maxifuse performs much more like an Autofuse,
although the average opening time is slightly longer. This
is because the Maxifuse was designed to be a slower

PACIFIC FUSE ELEMENT/MAXIFUSE

REPAIR PROCEDURES

Step 4: Crimp the Wires


Select the proper clip to secure the splice. To
determine the proper clip size for the wire being spliced,
follow the directions included in the J 38125-A Terminal
Repair Kit. Select the correct anvil on the crimper. (On
most crimpers your choice is limited to either a small or
large anvil.) Overlap the stripped wire ends and hold them
between your thumb and forefinger as shown in Figure 7.
Then, center the splice clip under the stripped wires and
hold it in place.
• Open the crimping tool to its full width and rest one
handle on a firm flat surface.
• Center the back of the splice clip on the proper anvil
and close the crimping tool to the point where the
former touches the wings of the clip.
• Make sure that the clip and wires are still in the
correct position. Then, apply steady pressure until the
crimping tool closes (see Figure 8).
• Before crimping the ends of the clip, be sure that:
— The wires extend beyond the clip in each direction. 5 -2 8 -9 4
— No strands of wire are cut loose. BSGQ78A5
— No insulation is caught under the clip.

Figure 8 - Crimping the Splice Clip


Crimp the splice again, once on each end. Do not let
the crimping tool extend beyond the edge of the clip or you
may damage or nick the wires (see Figure 9).

Step 5: Solder
Apply 60/40 rosin core solder to the opening in the
back of the clip (see Figure 10). Follow the manufacturer’s
instruction for the solder equipment you are using.

Step 6: Tape the Splice


Center and roll the splicing tape. The tape should
cover the entire splice. Roll on enough tape to duplicate the
thickness of the insulation on the existing wires. Do not
flag the tape. Flagged tape may not provide enough
insulation, and the flagged ends will tangle with the other
wires in the harness (see Figure 11).
If the wire does not belong in a conduit or other
harness covering, tape the wire again. Use a winding
motion to cover the first piece of tape (Figure 12).

CIRCUIT OPERATION

Voltage to the Rear Window Release system is


available at all times through the CIG LTR Fuse and the
ORN (640) wire. Ground for the Rear Window Release
Motor is provided through the YEL (1737) wire, the Park
Brake Warning Switch on manual transmissions, and the
Park/Neutral Position Switch on automatic transmissions.

These switches are closed to ground with the Parking


Brake set or the transmission in PARK or NEUTRAL.
Closing the Rear Window Release Switch allows current to
flow through the switch and the BLK (1576) wire to the Rear
Window Release Motor.
