When Monitored:
When Powertrain Control Module initially powers up. Due to the integration of the Powertrain and Transmission
Control Modules, the transmission part of the PCM has its own specific power and ground circuits.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the PCM powers up and senses the vehicle in a valid forwardgear,withnoPRNDLDTCs,
and an output speed above 800 RPM, approximately 32 Kmh or 20 mph.
Possible Causes
POWER UP AT SPEED
Always perform the 45RFE/545RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure before proceeding. (Refer to
21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
If a vehicle loses power to the Transmission Control System, the solenoids(LR, 2C, OD, UD, 4C) will go to their
respective power off state. Some solenoids are normally vented and some are normally applied in their power off
state. The transmission is designed to be in 3rd gear with all of the solenoids in this state. However, if power is
restored, the Transmission Control System will power-up and normal operation will be restored.
This code identifies that power to the Transmission Control System was restored when the gear selector was in a
Driveposition while the vehicle was moving at speeds above 32 Kmh (20 mph).This DTC does not indicate a
problem with the transmission or Transmission Control System,instead, it suggests intermittent problems in
the fused ignition switch output, fused B(+), or ground circuits to the TCM. Alternately, if a person performs a rolling
restart maneuver, the DTC can be set. Therefore it is critical that this DTCbe investigated if the vehicle is experi-
encing intermittent 3rd gear operation and a subsequent return to normal operation.
Diagnostic Test
1.CHECK THE POWER AND GROUND CIRCUITS
This DTC is set when the Transmission portion of the Powertrain Control Module is initialized while the vehicle is
movingdowntheroadinavalidforwardgear.
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
NOTE: Due to the integration of the Powertrain and Transmission Control Modules, the transmission part of
the PCM has its own specific power and ground circuits.
Check all of the Fused B(+), Fused Ignition Switch Output, and ground circuits to the PCM for an intermittent open
or short to ground.
With the scan tool, check the DTC EVENT DATA to help identify the conditionsin which the DTC was set.

When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on and engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set when the monitored Line Pressure Sensor voltage is less than or equal to 0.35 volts for 0.18
seconds.
Possible Causes

POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
Always perform the 45RFE/545RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure before proceeding. (Refer to
21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
Line pressure is electronically controlled by the Transmission Control System and is measured by the Line Pressure
Sensor (LPS). The desired line pressure is continuously being compared tothe actual line pressure and is regulated
by electronically changing the dutycycle of the Pressure Control Solenoid (PCS). (5% duty cycle = solenoid off =
max line pressure, 62% duty cycle =solenoid on = min line pressure).
The Transmission Control System calculates the desired line pressure based on inputs from the transmission and
engine. A calculated torque input to the transmission is used as the primary input of the desired line pressure cal-
culation and is called Torque Based Line Pressure. In addition, the line pressure is set to a preset level 827 to 931
kPa (120 to 135 psi) during shifts and in Park and Neutral to ensure consistent shift quality.
The monitored Line Pressure Sensor voltage should always be between 0.35 and 4.75 volts. Any monitored volt-
ages outside these parameters indicate an Line Pressure Sensor or wiring problem and will cause either DTC
P0934 or P0935 to set.
Diagnostic Test
