Perform 42RLE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/
TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)

P0897-TRANSMISSION FLUID DETERIORATED
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
Each transition from full EMCC to partial EMCC for A/C bump prevention.
Set Condition:
DTC set if 20 occurrences of a turbine acceleration sum. Fault Set Time: 20 transitions from full EMCC to
partial EMCC. Transmission will not use partial EMCC. Established for A/Cbump prevention.
Possible Causes
WORN OUT/ BURNT TRANSAXLE FLUID
Always perform the 42RLE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 -
TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
To prevent a bump due to A/C clutch engagement, a temporary torque converter partial EMCC condition is estab-
lished prior to A/C clutch engagement. A message is received over the bus indicating that A/C clutch engagement
is imminent. Partial EMCC is then established and a reply message,
OK to engage A/C clutchis sent via the bus.
Partial EMCC will be held for 450 ms before returning to full EMCC. During the transition from full to partial EMCC,
a turbine acceleration sum is calculated, if this value exceeds a threshold value for several transitions, degraded
transmission fluid is indicated.
Diagnostic Test
1.WORN OUT/ BURNT TRANSMISSION FLUID
Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Flush the Transmission Oil Cooler and lines, replace the Transmission OilFilter, refill with new Transmission Fluid,
start the engine, and adjust the fluid per the Service Information.
NOTE: The Transmission Cooler must be flushed before proceeding.
Allow the engine to idle for 10 minutes, in Park.
Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Again, flush the Transmission Oil Cooler and lines, replace the Transmission Oil Filter, refill with new Transmission
Fluid, start the engine, and adjust the fluid per the Service Information.
With the scan tool, perform a Battery Disconnect.
NOTE: The Battery Disconnect must be done to re-enable EMCC during an A/C Clutch engagement.
NOTE: The vehicle may exhibit intermittent shudder during the first few hundred miles. The new Transmis-
sion Fluid will gradually penetrate the Torque Convertor Clutch frictionmaterial and the shudder should
disappear.
Erase the DTC and return the vehicle to the customer.
Did the DTC reset and/or does the vehicle still shudder after a few thousandmiles?
Ye s>>
Replace the Torque Converter per the Service Information.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
PRE-DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE - 42RLE
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
1.
Perform the following steps prior to any diagnostic procedure:
Many transmission symptoms can be caused by a low fluid level. If the fluid level is low, locate and repair any
leaks and fill the transmission to the proper fluid level. Refer to the Service Information for the proper repair
and fluid fill procedures.
Testing should only be performed with the battery fully charged to avoid false diagnosis.
With the scan tool, read Engine (PCM) DTCs. If Engine DTCs are present, refer to the Driveability Category
and perform to the appropriate diagnostic procedure(s) before proceeding.
With the scan tool, read Transmission (TCM) DTCs. Record all Stored, Active, and Pending DTC information.
Diagnose any Pending DTC as a matured DTC.
With the scan tool, read DTC EVENT DATA.Use this data to identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.
Note: Performing a Battery Disconnect will clear all DTC EVENT DATA and reset all learned Transmis-
sion values to the controllers default values, which may temporarily result in erratic shift schedules.
With the scan tool, perform the Shift Lever Position Test. If the test does not pass, refer to the diagnostic
procedure for P0706-Check Shifter Signal.
For Gear Ratio Error DTCs, use the scan tool to read and record the Clutch Volume Index (CVI) information.
Use the wiring diagram as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors related to this circuit and repair as nec-
essary.
Refer to the When Monitored and Set Conditions for this DTC. DTCs can set at ignition on, at start up, driving
under specific conditions, and after controller diagnostic monitors haverun.
Refer to applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) for controller software update information. Some condi-
tions can be corrected by upgrading the Engine (PCM) or Transmission (TCM)controller software.
Check for any Service Information Tune-ups or Service Bulletins for any possible causes that may apply.
Were there any repairs made that fixed the vehicle?

Perform the following after completion of a diagnostic repair:
Note: After completion of the Transmission Verification Test, the Powertrain Verification Test must be
performed. Refer to the Engine Category.
Reconnect any disconnected components.
With the scan tool, erase all Transmission and Engine DTCs.
Erase DTC P0700 under engine to turn off the MIL off after completion of transmission repairs.
Perform *PRNDL FAULT CLEARING PROCEDURE after completion of repairs for P0706-TRANSMISSION
RANGE SENSOR RATIONALITY.
If the Powertrain Control Module or the Transmission has been repaired or replaced, it is necessary to perform
the scan tool Quick Learn Procedure.
If the Torque converter has been replaced, with the scan tool perform TCC BREAK-IN.
If the Powertrain Control Module or Front Control Module has been replacedyoumustresetthePinionFactor
in the Front Control Module.
With the scan tool, display Transmission Temperature. Start and run the engine until the Transmission Tem-
perature is HOT, above 43° C or 110° F.
Check the transmission fluid and adjust if necessary. Refer to the ServiceInformation for the Fluid Fill proce-
dure.
Road test the vehicle. With the scan tool, monitor the engine RPM. Make 15 to20 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 upshifts.
Perform these shifts from a standing start to 45 mph with a constant throttleopeningof20to25degrees.
With speeds below 25 MPH, make 5 to 8 wide open throttle kickdowns to 1st gear. Allow at least 5 seconds
each in 2nd and 3rd gear between each kickdown.
For a specific DTC, drive the vehicle to the Symptom’s When Monitored/WhenSet conditions to verify the DTC
is repaired.
If equipped with AutoStick, upshift and downshift several times using the AutoStickfeature during the road
test.
Note: Use the OBDII task manager to run a Good Trip in each gear, this will confirm the repair and to
ensure that the DTC has not re-matured.
Check for any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) during and after the road test.
Did any Diagnostic Trouble Codes set during the road test?

P0123-TPS/APP CIRCUIT HIGH
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
Theory of Operation
Due to the integration of the Powertrain and Transmission Control Modulesthe New Generation Control Module III
will be referred as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The 4.7L V-8 Throttle Positioning Sensor (TPS) provides
the PCM with an input signal voltage that represents the throttle blade position of the throttle body. The TPS is
connected to the throttle blade shaft. As the position of the throttle blade changes, the output voltage of the TPS
changes.
The 5.7L V-8 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) is a linear potentiometer that provides the PCM with a
voltage signal proportional to the angle, or position of the accelerator pedal. The APPS signal along with inputs from
other sensors is used by the PCM to calculate the throttle plate position which is electronically controlled.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on and engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the monitored TPS voltage rises above 4.94 volts for theperiod of 0.48 seconds.
