responding element is applied. If a switch fails to
close, it is retested, If it fails the second test, the
code is set.
Transmission Effects:The MIL illuminates and
the transmission system defaults to Relay Open
limp-in mode.
Possible causes:
> Pressure switch sense circuit shorted to battery
between TCM and solenoid pack.
> Low line pressure
> Solenoid Pack
Name of code:P1791(35) - Loss Of Prime
When monitored:If the transmission is slipping
in any forward gear and the pressure switches are
not indicating pressure, a loss of prime test is run.
Set condition:If the transmission begins to slip in
any forward gear, and the pressure switch or
switches that should be closed for a given gear are
open, a loss of prime test begins. All available
elements (in 1st gear L-R, 2-4 and OD, in 2nd, 3rd,
and 4th gear 2-4 and OD) are turned on by the
Transmission Control Module (TCM) to see if pump
prime exists. The code is set if none of the pressure
switches respond. The TCM will continue to run the
loss of prime test until pump pressure returns.
Theory of operation:The loss of prime test is
used to prevent transmission defaults which can be
caused by a lack of pump prime.
Transmission Effects:Vehicle will not move or
transmission slips. Normal operation will continue
if pump prime returns.
Possible causes:
> Low transmission fluid level
> PRNDL indicates a valid OD code in the hydrau-
lic reverse position
> Transmission fluid filter clogged or damaged
> Transmission fluid filter improperly installed
(Bolts loose or O-ring missing)
> Oil pump - If a customer has a problem when the
transmission is cold whereby he shifts to reverse,
gets reverse, and then shifts to OD and does not
get OD (gets a neutral condition), and then can
not get reverse or OD for between 3-20 seconds,
replace the oil pump. High side clearance in the
oil pump will set a code 35. The pump will prime
upon start-up, but as the torque converter purges
air (drain down) the air will leak across the inner
rotor into the pump suction port and cause a loss
of prime right after the shift into OD. After 3- 20
seconds, pump prime will return and normal
operation will continue. The pump should be
replaced only after all other possible causes
above have been checked and verified.Name of code:P1790(36) - Fault Immediately
After Shift
When monitored:After a gear ratio error is
stored.
Set condition:This code is set if the associated
gear ratio code is stored within 1.3 seconds after a
shift.
Theory of operation:This code will only be stored
along with a 50 series code. If this code is set, it
indicates the problem is mechanical in nature.
When this code exists, diagnosing the transmission
should be based on the associated gear ratio code
and primarily mechanical causes should be consid-
ered.
Transmission Effects:None
Possible causes:
> Mechanical causes as listed under associated
gear ratio code.
Name of code:P1775(37) - Solenoid Switch Valve
Latched in TCC Position
When monitored:During an attempted shift into
1st gear.
Set condition:This code is set if three unsuccess-
ful attempts are made to get into 1st gear in one
given key start.
Theory of operation:The solenoid switch valve
(SSV) controls the direction of the transmission
fluid when the L-R/TCC solenoid is energized. The
SSV will be in the downshifted position in 1st gear,
thus directing the fluid to the L-R clutch circuit. In
2nd, 3rd, and 4th, it will be in the upshifted position
and directs the fluid into the torque converter
clutch (TCC).
When shifting into 1st gear, a special hydraulic
sequence is performed to ensure SSV movement
into the downshifted position. The L-R pressure
switch is monitored to confirm SSV movement. If
movement is not confirmed (the L-R pressure
switch does not close), 2nd gear is substituted for
1st.
Transmission Effects:Transmission will have no
1st gear (2nd gear will be substituted), and no
EMCC operation.
Possible causes:
> PRNDL indicates a valid OD code in the hydrau-
lic reverse position
> Valve body- - Solenoid valve stuck in TCC posi-
tion
> High idle speed
> Solenoid malfunction - L-R pressure switch will
not close
> L-R Pressure Switch Sense circuit shorted to
battery

Symptom:
P1791-LOSS OF PRIME
When Monitored and Set Condition:
P1791-LOSS OF PRIME
When Monitored: If the transmission is slipping in any forward gear and the pressure
switches are not indicating pressure, a loss of prime test is run.
Set Condition: If the Trans. begins to slip in a forward gear & the press. switch(s) that
should be closed are open a loss of prime test begins. Available elements are turned on by
the TCM to see if pump prime exists.The code sets if no pressure switches respond.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
PLUGGED TRANSMISSION OIL FILTER
SHIFT LEVER POSITION
TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS
TRANSMISSION OIL PUMP
TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1NOTE: Low fluid level can be the cause of many Transmission problems. If
the fluid level is low locate and repair the leak then check and adjust the
fluid level per the Service Information.
NOTE: Always perform diagnostics with a fully charged battery to avoid
false symptoms.
With the DRBIIIt, read the engine DTC's. Check and repair all engine DTC's prior
to performing Transmission Symptom Diagnostics.
With the DRBIIIt, read Transmission DTC's. Record all DTC's and 1 Trip Failures.
NOTE: Diagnose 1 Trip Failures as a fully matured DTC.
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
Repair as necessary.
Perform the Shift Lever Position Test. If the test does not pass, refer to Symptom test
for P0705 Check Shifter Signal.
For Gear Ratio DTC's, check and record all CVI's.
Most DTC's set on start up but some must be set by driving the vehicle such that all
diagnostic monitors have run.
NOTE: Verify flash level of Transmission Control Module. Some problems
are corrected by software upgrades to the Transmission Control Module.
NOTE: Check for applicable TSB's related to the symptom.
Perform this procedure prior to Symptom diagnosis.All

TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
2 The Transmission Fluid temperature must be above 21É C or 70É F prior to checking
fluid level. Adjusting fluid level on a cold transmission will result in an overfilled
transmission.

2 Turn the ignition off.
Remove the Transmission Oil Pan and Oil Filter per the Service Information.
Install a new Transmission Oil Filter per Service Information.
Reinstall Transmission Oil Pan, and refill with new Transmission Fluid per the
Service Information.
Note: The Transmission Cooler must be flushed before prodceeding.
Start the engine, check and adjust the Transmission Fluid Level per Service
Information.
Allow the engine to idle for 10 minutes, in Park.
Flush the Transmission Oil Cooler per the Service Information.
Turn the ignition off.
Drain and refill the Transmission Fluid.
Flush the Transmission Oil Cooler again.
Start the engine, check and adjust the Transmission Fluid Level per Service
Information.
With the DRBIIIt, perform a Battery Disconnect.
Note: This must be done to re enable EMCC during an A/C Clutch engage-
ment.
The vehicle may exhibit intermittent shudder during the first few hundred miles.
Note: The oil will gradually penetrate the TCC friction material and the
shudder should disappear.
Erase the DTC and return the vehicle to the customer.
Did the Code reset or does the vehicle still shudder after a few thousand miles?All
Ye s®Replace the Torque Convertor per the Service Information. Note:
After replacing the Torque Convertor, use the DRBIII to perform
the TCC Break In procedure. This will prevent possible shudder
conditions.
Perform 41TE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.
No®Test Complete.
