Theory of Operation
The transmission throttle valve cable has been replace by the transmission throttle valve actuator (TTVA). The TTVA
consists of an electric DC motor, two potentiometers, and a gear drive system. The TTVA is mechanically connected
to the transmission throttle valve in the valve body by the “D” shaped opening in the bottom of the TTVA shaft.
The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanical adjustments. All changes in throt-
tle valve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The TTVA does require an initialization period after the actuator has beenremoved or replaced. After the actuator
has been removed or replaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30) seconds. This will allow the ECM
sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures to learn the TTVA’s current “zero” position.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on.
Set Condition:
The current detected on the TTVA circuit is greater than a threshold for a calibrated amount of time or the
feedback to the controller does not match the intended state.

Theory of Operation
The Governor Pressure Control System is used to regulate the governor pressure which controls the shifts for first,
second, and third gear. The Governor Pressure Control System test verifies that the requested pressure and the
actual pressure are within a predetermined tolerance.
When Monitored:
While driving and the commanded governor pressure is equal to the pressurerequired for third gear.
Set Condition:
If the governor pressure sensor output is less than 407 kPa (60 psi) or greater than 621 kPa (80 psi) when the
requested pressure is 407 - 621 kPa (60 - 80 psi) for 2.2 seconds. This DTC will set if there are two trips of
five consecutive bad 2.2 second tests with the transmission oil temperature between 23.5 - 88° C (74 - 190°
F).
