DTC P1790 ROM Transmission Side
Bad Check Sum
Circuit Description
Transmission Side Read Only Memory (ROM) and
Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only
Memory (EEPROM) is an electronic circuit that controls
the transmission control in the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM).
This DTC detects a check sum error. This is a type “C”
DTC.
Conditions For Setting The DTC
Detects check sum error for 1 second.
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
Maximum line pressure.
Immediate landing to 4th gear.
Inhibit TCC engagement.
The PCM will illuminate the CHECK TRANS Lamp.
Conditions For Clearing The MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn off the CHECK TRANS Lamp after
three consecutive ignition cycles without a failure
reported.
The DTC can be cleared from the PCM history by
using a scan tool.
The DTC will be cleared from history when the vehicle
has achieved 40 warmup cycles without a failure
reported.
The PCM will cancel the DTC default actions when
the fault no longer exists and the ignition is cycled “off”
long enough to power down the PCM.
