DODGE RAM SRT-10 2006 Service Repair Manual

When Monitored:
With the engine running and the PCM has closed the Transmission Control Relay.
Set Condition:
If the battery voltage of the Transmission Output circuit(s) to the PCM is less than 10.0 volts for the period of
15 seconds. Note: P0562 generally indicates a gradually falling battery voltage or a resistive connection(s) to
the PCM. The DTC will also set if the battery voltage sensed at the PCM is lessthan 6.5-volts for 200ms or
where the Transmission Output circuits are less than 7.2-volts for 200ms.
Possible Causes
RELATED CHARGING SYSTEM DTC’S
(Z904, Z908, Z977) GROUND CIRCUITS OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
(T16) TIPM OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM)
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
Friction element distress could result from an insufficient supply voltage to properly control the solenoids. To prevent
this possibility, the battery voltage is monitored and the system is placed in logical limp-in if the battery voltage
drops below the limit.

P0602-CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING ERROR/NOT PROGRAMMED
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W
Theory of Operation
The controller is programmed during manufacturing with generic softwareto facilitate testing. However, generic soft-
ware does not have the proper calibrations to control a transmission in a vehicle. The check for generic software is
made at power-up. If generic software is found , the MIL will light immediately and the MIL will stay on even if the
fault is cleared, until the proper software is installed. Note: Transmission will be placed in limp-in mode.
When Monitored:
Check for generic software is made at power-up
Set Condition:
If generic software is found, the MIL will light immediately. This DTC is designed to inform the technician that
the controller still has generic software installed.
Possible Causes
PCM - PROGRAMMING ERROR
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMIS-
SION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Diagnostic Test
1.CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING ERROR
NOTE: Controller is programmed with generic software and will not allow the correct vehicle Powertrain
management.
With the scan tool.
Record the vehicles controller part number.
Select Use Controller Part Number under the Flash Tab.
Flash the controller with the correct software.
Verify the controller flashed successfully.

P0604-INTERNAL CONTROL MODULE RAM
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
Theory of Operation
After the controller is reset (ignition turned to the RUN position), the microprocessor checks the integrity of each
RAM location by writing to it and reading back from it. The read value shouldbe same as value written.
When Monitored:
One time after the controller is reset (ignition turned to the RUN position).
Set Condition:
Whenever the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) detects an internal controller problem.
Possible Causes

P0605-INTERNAL CONTROL MODULE ROM
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
Theory of Operation
After the controller is reset (ignition turned to the RUN position) the microprocessor checks the integrity of the pro-
gram memory (ROM). A checksum is calculated by adding all used bytes in the program memory. The sum should
be the same as a known constant stored in the program memory.
When Monitored:
One time after the controller is reset (ignition turned to the RUN position).
Set Condition:
Whenever the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) detects an internal controller problem.

P0613-INTERNAL TCM
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
Theory of Operation
The internal Watchdog (WD) is a separate hardware circuit that continuously monitors the microprocessor. To insure
the proper operation of the Transmission controller the watchdog must receive a signal from the microprocessor
within a specific time window (14 msec ± 1 msec) to prevent a system shutdownafter a short delay (570 msec).
The microprocessor periodically tests the WD’s ability to provide this shutdown function using a three phase test;
1) Send the signal too late > 15 msec
2) Send the signal too early < 13 msec
3) Delay test < 590 msec
If the watchdog input signal arrives too early or too late, the Watchdog Fault line will go low and the watchdog delay
will start to time out. The delay will be reset by the correct timing of watchdog signal sent during subsequent oper-
ations.
The Delay Test checks the delay time out. The Delay Monitor line is pulled low, which forces the delay to start timing
out. At the end of the delay time the Transmission Relay will be turned off. The delay test, upon detection of the
relay turning off, will immediately turn the relay back on before shutdowncan occur.
When Monitored:
1) One time after the controller is reset (ignition turned to the RUN position) and every 60 seconds thereafter.
The Delay Test is executed after a reset only.
2) 2 seconds after an invalid test.
Set Condition:
If either of the following conditions occur 3 times:
1) The watchdog fault line remains high after the period has elapsed for thetoo early - too late watchdog test.
2) The Transmission Control Relay remains on after the watchdog delay expired.

P0706-TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR RATIONALITY
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.

When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on.
Set Condition:
The DTC will set if the controller detects an invalid PRNDL code which lastsfor more than 0.042 seconds.
Possible Causes
SHIFTER OUT OF ADJUSTMENT
TRS SENSE CIRCUIT OPEN
TRS SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
TRS SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE
METAL DEBRIS IN OIL PAN
TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR
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
The T1, T2, T3, T41, or T42 (C1 - C5) Sense circuits communicate the shift lever position to the Transmission
Control System. Each circuit is terminated at the transmission by a switch(TRS). Each switch can be either open
or closed, depending on the shift lever position. The PCM can decode this information and determine the shift lever
position.
Each shift lever position has it own unique combination of closed and open switches. This is called a PRNDL code.
There are 5 switches, therefore: there are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). There
are 12 valid codes: two for neutral, one for each other gear position (5), and five temporary (transition zone) codes.
The remainder of the codes should never occur, these are called invalid codes.
Diagnostic Test
1.CHECK TO SEE IF P0706 DTC IS CURRENT
With the scan tool, perform the Shift Lever Position Test.
Select the test outcome from the following:
Test passes:
Go To 6
Test fails with Error Code:
Go To 2

2.CHECK THE TRANSMISSION SOLENOID/TRS ASSEMBLY
Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Remove the Ignition Switch Feed fuse from the TIPM.
CAUTION: Removal of the Ignition Switch Feed fuse from the TIPM will prevent the vehicle from being
startedingear.
WARNING: The Ignition Switch Feed fuse must be removed from the TIPM. Failure to do so can result in
personal injury or death.

Ignition on, engine not running.
With the scan tool, perform the Shift Lever Position Test.
