Diagnostic Procedures
1) On AN and DN bodies, go to next step. On all except AN and
DN bodies, use scan tool to read DTCs. If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS
counter is not displayed or displayed count is not "0", go to step
11). If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter is displayed and displayed
count is "0", go to next step.
2) Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM harness connectors.
Inspect connectors and terminals for damage. Repair as necessary. If

pressure/temperature sensor harness connector. If voltage is greater
than one volt, repair or replace transmission solenoid and harness
assembly. If voltage is one volt or less, replace transmission
pressure/temperature sensor.
5) Turn ignition off. Measure resistance between transmission
temperature signal circuit at White PCM harness connector C2 and
ground circuit at Black PCM harness connector C1. If resistance is
less than 550 ohms, go to DTC P0712: TRANS TEMP SENSOR VOLTAGE TOO
LOW. If resistance is 550 ohms or more, go to next step.

shaft speed RPM, go to next step. If engine RPM is not within 60 RPM
of output shaft speed RPM, go to step 15).
8) If output shaft speed RPM is greater than engine RPM, go
to next step. If output shaft speed RPM is equal to or less than
engine RPM, go to step 15).
9) Road test vehicle and reach a steady speed of 55 MPH and
engage overdrive. If engine RPM is 69 percent of output shaft speed,
go to step 15). If engine RPM is not 69 percent of output shaft speed,
go to next step.
10) Connect a 0-300 psi (0-21 kg/cm
) pressure gauge to
transmission Overdrive (O/D) clutch pressure test port. Connect a
second 0-300 psi (0-21 kg/cm
) pressure gauge to transmission governor
pressure test port. See appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OVERHAUL
article. Ensure engine and transmission are at normal operating
temperature. With an assistant, test drive vehicle. Using scan tool,
select GOV and 3-4 SHIFT VALVE SYSTEM TEST. Select 4th gear while
monitoring pressure gauge. Governor pressure should rise to greater
than 20 psi (1.4 kg/cm
) and O/D pressure should rise to greater than
40 psi (2.8 kg/cm). If pressures are as specified, go to next step.
If pressures are not as specified, go to step 13).
11) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
12) Drain transmission fluid and remove oil pan. If
transmission fluid is burnt or has excessive debris, repair as
necessary. If transmission fluid is okay, go to step 23).
13) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
14) Leave gauges connected. Replace 3-4 shift solenoid. Start
engine and allow engine and transmission to reach normal operating
temperature. Using scan tool, select GOV and 3-4 SHIFT VALVE SYSTEM
TEST. Select 4th gear while monitoring pressure gauges. Governor
pressure should rise to greater than 20 psi (1.4 kg/cm
) and O/D
pressure should rise to greater than 40 psi (2.8 kg/cm). If pressures
are as specified, testing is complete. If pressures are not as
specified, see appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OVERHAUL article,
paying attention to seals and clutches related to O/D clutch.
15) Check transmission fluid for proper level and for any
debris. Fill or repair transmission as necessary. If fluid level and
condition are okay, go to next step.
16) Start engine. Using scan tool, perform TCC SYSTEM TEST.
