DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Wheels And Tires
Inspection and Verification
WARNING: A vehicle equipped with a Traction- Lok® differential will always have both
wheels driving. If, while the vehicle is being serviced, only one wheel is raised off the ground
and the rear axle is driven by the engine, the wheel on the ground could drive the vehicle off
the stand or jack. Be sure both rear wheels are off the ground.
WARNING: Never run the engine with one wheel off the ground, for example, when
changing a tire. The wheel(s) resting on the ground could cause the vehicle to move.
WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle.
Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury and
extensive component damage. Use off- vehicle wheel and tire balancer only.
Be sure to follow the warnings when carrying out inspection and verification.
Road Test
Verify the customer concern by carrying out a road test on a smooth road. If any vibrations are
apparent, refer to Section 100 - 04 .
To maximize tire performance, inspect for signs of incorrect inflation and uneven wear, which may
indicate a need for balancing, rotation, or front suspension alignment.
Correct tire pressure and driving techniques have an important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering,
excessively rapid acceleration and unnecessary sharp braking increases tire wear.
Replacement tires must follow the recommended:
ztire sizes.
z speed rating.
z load range.
z tire construction type.
Use of any other tire size or type can seriously affect:
zride.
z handling.
z speedometer/odometer calibration.
z vehicle ground clearance.
z tire clearance between the body and chassis.

The TCC solenoid is used to control the apply and release of the TCC.
Shift Solenoid —
SSA, SSB
Two on/off shift solenoids provide gear selection of first through fourth gears by controlling the
pressure to the three shift valves. One unit containing the two shift solenoids is located in the main
control valve body. The shift solenoids are two- way, normally open style.
a When a manual pull- in occurs above a calibrated speed, the transmission will not downshift from the
higher gear until the vehicle speed drops below this calibrated speed.
EC = Electronically Controlled
HD = Hydraulically Disabled
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is located on the lead frame assembly near the shift
solenoids on the main control valve body. It is a temperature- sensitive device called a thermistor. It
sends a voltage signal to the PCM. The voltage signal varies with transmission fluid temperature. The
PCM uses this signal to determine whether a cold start shift schedule is necessary. The shift schedule
is compensated when the transmission fluid temperature is cold. The PCM also inhibits (TCC)
operation at low transmission fluid temperatures and corrects electronic pressure control.
Vehicle Speed (VSS) Sensor
The source of vehicle speed (VSS) is model dependent. Possible sources of vehicle speed input are
anti- lock brake sensor (ABS), a gear- driven vehicle speed sensor (VSS), or an output shaft speed
sensor (OSS). The VSS signal is either an A/C signal whose frequency changes with speed, or an
SCP data message depending on the source. Some applications will have both. The vehicle speed
signal is an input to various vehicle subsystems such as the powertrain control module (PCM),
instrument cluster (speedometer and odometer), speed control system, etc. The vehicle speed source
must be operational to enter output state control (OSC) mode for diagnostics.
Regardless of the type of vehicle speed system, the PCM always uses the OSS for transmission and Solenoid Operation Chart Selector Lever Position PCM Commanded Gear Solenoids

Instrument Cluster Replacement
When it is necessary to install a new instrument cluster, contact the Instrument Cluster Program.
Gauge Indication Systems
Tachometer
Engine rpm information is relayed to the instrument cluster from the powertrain control module (PCM)
over the standard corporate protocol (SCP) network.
Speedometer
The instrument cluster receives the vehicle speed signal from the PCM over the SCP network and
displays it on the speedometer gauge. If the instrument cluster receives no vehicle speed signal after
one second, the speedometer defaults to 0.0 km/h (0.0 mph).
Odometer
The instrument cluster receives an odometer message from the PCM and stores the mileage in
memory. When the instrument cluster fails to receive the odometer message for more than two
seconds, the odometer will display dashes.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel sender is hardwired to the fuel gauge. When the instrument cluster fails to receive the fuel
level signal for more than 33 seconds, the fuel level gauge will move below E (empty). If the fuel level
signal operates correctly for more than 33 seconds, the fuel gauge will return to the correct position.
Fuel fills of less than 9.5 liters (2.5 gallons) require at least 10 minutes to update the fuel gauge
indication.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Engine coolant temperature information is received by the instrument cluster from the PCM over the
SCP network. Engine coolant temperatures above 121°C (250°F) will cause the gauge to indicate
above the normal band. If the engine coolant temperature information is missing or invalid for five
seconds, the temperature gauge will indicate below the cold (C) position.
Voltage Gauge (except Cobra)
The voltage gauge displays the system voltage as measured at the instrument cluster run input. Boost Gauge (Cobra only) Klj . 2 ba

3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible)
before proceeding to the next step.
4. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the diagnostic tool to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the
diagnostic tool menu. If the diagnostic tool does not communicate with the vehicle:
zcheck that the program card is correctly installed.
z check the connections to the vehicle.
z check the ignition switch position.
5. If the diagnostic tool still does not power up, refer to the diagnostic tool operating manual.
6. Carry out the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTICS test. If the diagnostic tool responds with: zCKT914, CKT915 OR CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418 -
00 .
z NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for the instrument cluster, Go To Pinpoint Test A or for the
generic electronic module (GEM), Go To Pinpoint Test W .
z SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs),
erase the continuous DTCs and carry out the self- test diagnostics for the instrument
cluster or the GEM.
7. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Instrument Cluster Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index or the GEM Diagnostic Trouble Code Index to continue diagnostics.
8. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, proceed to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
Instrument Cluster Self- Diagnostic Mode
To enter the instrument cluster self- diagnostic mode, press and hold the instrument cluster
SELECT/RESET button, turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, and then continue pressing the
SELECT/RESET button (five seconds) until tESt is displayed in the odometer. The SELECT/RESET
button must be released within three seconds of the odometer tESt display to begin the self- diagnostic
mode. Press the SELECT/RESET button to advance through the following steps until dtc is displayed.
Depressing the SELECT/RESET button will display any stored continuous DTCs before proceeding to
the next step. z
