ECO mode DODGE RAM SRT-10 2006 Service Manual PDF

Theory of Operation
The Tow/haul Overdrive OFF (control) Switch is located in the shift lever arm. The switch is a momentary contact
device that signals the PCM to toggle current status of the overdrive function. At ignition on, overdrive operation is
allowed. Pressing the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch once causes the Tow/haul Overdrive OFF mode to be entered
and the Tow/Haul lamp to be illuminated. Pressing the switch a second time causes normal overdrive operation to
be restored and the Tow/haul lamp to be turned off. The Tow/haul Overdrive OFF mode defaults to ON after the
ignition switch is cycled OFF and ON. Thenormal position for the control switch is the ON position. The switch must
be in this position to energize the solenoid and allow a 3-4 upshift. The control switch indicator light illuminates only
when the Tow/haul Overdrive Off switch is turned to the OFF position, or when illuminated by the transmission con-
trol module.
When Monitored:
The engine must have been running for at minimum of 10 seconds. The circuit is tested every 440ms.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off Switch Sense circuit is heldlow for 5 minutes or more from the
time of switch closure or ignition on with the engine running.

Theory of Operation
The Transmission Control Output supplies power to the TCC, Overdrive, andGovernor Pressure Solenoids when in
normal operating mode. The Transmission Control Output Control circuit is constantly monitored by the PCM. If the
expected state of the Transmission Control Output Control circuit is different then the expected state, a correspond-
ing DTC will set and the PCM will de-energize the Transmission Control Output and place the transmission in Limp-
in.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the Ignition on.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the PCM monitored voltage of the Transmission Control Output Control circuit is different
than the expected voltage for the period 3.0 seconds.

Theory of Operation
The Transmission Control Output from the Totally Integrated Power Module(TIPM) supplies power to the TCC,
Overdrive, and Governor Pressure Solenoids when in normal operating mode. The Transmission Control circuit is
constantly monitored by the ECM. If the expected state of the TransmissionControl circuit is different then the
expected state, a corresponding DTC will set and the ECM will de-energize the Transmission Control and place the
transmission in Limp-in.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the Ignition on.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the ECM monitored voltage of the Transmission Control Relay Control circuit is different
than the expected voltage for the period 3.0 seconds.

SWITCH-TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE
DESCRIPTION
The tow/haul overdrive OFF (control) switch is located
in the shift lever arm. The switch is a momentary con-
tact device that signals the PCM to toggle current sta-
tus of the overdrive function.
OPERATION
At key-on, overdrive operation is allowed. Pressing the switch once causes the tow/haul overdrive OFF mode to be
entered and the Tow/Haul lamp to be illuminated. Pressing the switch a second time causes normal overdrive oper-
ationtoberestoredandthetow/haullamptobeturnedoff.Thetow/hauloverdrive OFF mode defaults to ON after
the ignition switch is cycled OFF and ON. The normal position for the control switch is the ON position. The switch
must be in this position to energize the solenoid and allow a 3-4 upshift. The control switch indicator light illuminates
only when the tow/haul overdrive switch is turned to the OFF position, or when illuminated by the transmission
control module.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - OVERDRIVE ELECTRICAL CONTROLS
The tow/haul overdrive off switch, valve body solenoid, case connectors and related wiring can all be tested with a
12 volt test lamp or a volt/ohmmeter. Check continuity of each component when diagnosis indicates this is neces-
sary.
Switch and solenoid continuity shouldbe checked whenever the transmission fails to shift into fourth gear range.

1. Using a plastic trim tool, remove the tow/haul over-
drive off switch retainer (2) from the shift lever (1).
