7) Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and 3-4
shift solenoid control circuit at PCM harness connector. If voltage is
greater than one volt, repair 3-4 shift solenoid control circuit for
short to voltage. If voltage is one volt or less, go to next step.
8) Turn ignition off. Remove transmission control relay.
Inspect transmission control relay connector and terminals for damage.
Repair as necessary. If connector and terminals are okay, measure
resistance between transmission control relay output circuit at
transmission control relay connector and 3-4 shift solenoid control
circuit at White PCM harness connector C2. If resistance is 26-40
ohms, go to next step. If resistance is not 26-40 ohms or less,
replace 3-4 shift solenoid.
9) Measure resistance between ground and transmission control
relay output circuit at transmission control relay connector. If
resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in transmission
control relay output circuit. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, go
to next step.
10) Measure resistance between transmission control relay
output circuit between transmission control relay connector and
transmission solenoid harness connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or
greater, repair open transmission control relay output circuit. If
resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
11) Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and
fused B+ circuit at transmission control relay connector. If voltage
is 10 volts or less, repair open fused B+ circuit. If voltage is
greater than 10 volts, replace PCM.
12) Disconnect transmission control relay. Inspect connector
and terminals for damage. Repair as necessary. If connector and
terminals are okay, turn ignition on. Replace transmission control
relay. Using scan tool, actuate transmission control relay. Measure
voltage between ground and transmission relay output circuit at
transmission solenoid harness connector. If voltage is greater than 10
volts, replace transmission control relay. If voltage is 10 volts or
less, go to next step.
13) Measure resistance of transmission control relay output
circuit between transmission control relay connector solenoid harness
connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, repair open in
transmission control relay output circuit. If resistance is less than
5 ohms, go to next step.
14) Measure resistance of transmission control relay output
circuit between ground and transmission control relay connector. If
resistance is 5 ohms or greater, go to next step. If resistance is
less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in transmission control relay
output circuit.
15) Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and
fused B+ circuit at transmission control relay connector. If voltage
is 10 volts or less, repair open fused B+ circuit. If voltage is
greater than 10 volts, test is complete.
16) Using scan tool, erase DTCs. Start engine. Attempt to
duplicate data and reset code. Using wiring diagram as a guide,
inspect wiring and connectors. Repair wiring harness as necessary. If
wiring and connectors are okay, wiggle wiring harness between TCC
solenoid and PCM. Note if DTC P0753 resets. If DTC P0753 resets,
repair wiring harness as necessary. If DTC P0753 does not reset,
