4. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be measured at the following rocker arms:INTAKE 1–2–4 /
EXHAUST 1–3–5. Measure the valve lash by inserting a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and cross-
head. Refer to VALVE LASH LIMIT CHART for the correct specifications. If the measurement fallswithinthe
limits, adjustment/resettingis notnecessary. If measurement finds the lashoutsideof the limits, adjustment/
resettingisrequired.
VALVE LASH LIMIT CHART
INTAKE EXHAUST
0.152 mm ( 0.006 in.) MIN. 0.533 mm (0.021 in.) MIN.
0.381 mm (0.015 in.) MAX. 0.863 mm (0.034 in.) MAX.
NOTE:
If measured valve lash falls within these specifications, no adjustment/reset is necessary. Engine operation within
these ranges has no adverse affect on performance, emissions, fuel economy or level of engine noise.
5. If adjustment/resetting is required, loosen the lock
nut on rocker arms and turn the adjusting screw
until the desired lash is obtained:
INTAKE0.254 mm (0.010 in.)
EXHAUST0.660 mm (0.026 in.) Tighten the lock
nut to 24 Nꞏm (18 ft. lbs.) and recheck the valve
lash.
6. Using the crankshaft barring tool, rotate thecrank-
shaftone revolution (360°) to align the damper
TDC mark to the 12 o’clock position.
7. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be
measured at the remaining rocker arms:INTAKE
3–5–6 / EXHAUST 2–4–6. Use the same method
as above for determining whether adjustment is
necessary, and adjust those that are found to be
outside of the limits.
8. Install the cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD COVER(S) - INSTAL-
LATION).
9. Connect the battery negative cables.
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect the battery negative cables.
2. Remove the cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD
COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
3. Disconnect the injector harness connectors at cyl-
inder head cover gasket. Remove all injector sole-
noid nuts. Remove cylinder head cover gasket.
4. Remove injector(s) for cylinder(s) to be serviced.
(Refer to 14 - FUEL SYSTEM/FUEL INJECTION/
FUELINJECTOR-REMOVAL)or(Referto14-
FUEL SYSTEM/FUEL INJECTION/FUEL INJEC-
TOR - REMOVAL).
5. Remove the rocker housing.
6. Remove the rocker arms and crossheads from the
cylinder(s) to be serviced. Mark each component
so they can be installed in their original position.
7. Using the crankshaft barring tool # 7471–B (2), rotate the engine to position the damper mark in the 12 o’clock
position.At this engine position, cylinders #1 and #6 can be serviced.

P0122-TPS/APP CIRCUIT LOW
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on and engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the monitored TPS voltage drops below .078 volts for theperiod of 0.48 seconds.
Possible Causes
RELATED TPS ENGINE DTCS PRESENT
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMIS-
SION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
The powertrain controller receives the throttle position signal from theThrottle Position Sensor (TPS). The controller
provides the TPS with a 5 volt pull up and a sensor ground. The signal is checked for being out of range as well
as for intermittent operation (excessive signal changes). The engine controller transmits the throttle value onto the
Bus. Most engine controllers will calculate the throttle value if the throttle signal is lost. If an error is detected by the
transmission controller and the throttle value is available on the Bus, the Bus value will be used, normal operation
will continue, and a TPS code will be set. If an error is detected and the throttle value is not available on the Bus,
normal operation will be discontinued, a TPS DTC will be set, and the MIL will be turned on after 5 minutes of
calculated operation.

P0604-INTERNAL CONTROL MODULE RAM
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
One time after the ignition key is turned to the run position.
Set Condition:
The read value does not match the written value in any RAM location.
Possible Causes
PCM - INTERNAL ERROR
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMIS-
SION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
After the controller is reset, the microprocessor checks the integrity ofeach RAM location by writing to it and read-
ing back from it. The read value should be the same as the written value. MIL on after 10 seconds of vehicle oper-
ation and transmission will be placed in limp-in.
Diagnostic Test

When Monitored:

Always perform the 42RLE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 -
TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
Line pressure is measured by the Line Pressure Sensor (LPS) and regulationis achieved by changing the duty
cycle of the Pressure Control Solenoid (PCS) controlled by the Transmission Control System. (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 both the engine and transmission.
The Transmission Control System calculates torque input to the transmission and uses it as the primary input to the
desired line pressure calculation. This is called Torque Based Line Pressure. In addition, the line pressure is set to
a preset level 827 or 931 kPa (120 or 135 psi) during shifts and in Park and Neutral to ensure consistent shift
quality. The desired line pressure is continuously being compared to the actual line pressure. If the actual line pres-
sure is consistently lower than the target while driving, the line pressure low DTC P0868 will set.

When Monitored:

Set Condition:
The PCM continuously monitors Actual Line Pressure. If the Actual Line Pressure reading is greater than the
highest Desired Line Pressure ever used in the current gear, while the Pressure Control Solenoid duty cycle is
at or near its maximum value (which should result in minimum line pressure), the DTC will set.
