Diagnostic Test

  1. CHECK FOR RELATED DTC P0750 
    1. With the scan tool, read transmission DTCs.

      Is the DTC P0750 present also?

      Yes 

      • Perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.

      No 

      • Go to step  2
  2. CHECK IF DTC P0740 IS CURRENT 
    1. With the scan tool, Read and RECORD ALL Transmission DTCs. After recording DTCs, erase DTCs.
    2. Drive the vehicle until the transmission temperature is at least 43° C or 110° F and the engine temperature at least 49° C or 120° F.
    3. Perform the following steps 3 times.
    4. Drive the vehicle to the speed of at least 88 Kmh or 55 mph.
    5. Allow 4th or 5th gear to engage for at least 10 seconds.
    6. Close the throttle.
    7. Tip back into the throttle until the TPS angle is between 25 and 29 degrees.
      NOTE: If the throttle angle goes over 30 degrees, you must close the throttle and try again.

      Did the TCC engage during any of the attempts, Engine speed approximately equal to input speed?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  3

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  3. CHECK WIRING AND CONNECTORS 
    1. The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors specific to this circuit. Wiggle the wires while checking for shorts and open circuits.

      Are the DTCs P1775 and P0841 present also?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  5
  5. CHECK THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND/OR INTERNAL TRANSMISSION 
    1. Repair internal transmission as necessary.
    2. Check for the following possible causes. Refer to the appropriate Service Information for the proper repair procedures.
    3. Inspect the Transmission Oil Pump Assembly.
    4. Check the Torque Converter Switch Valve and the Torque Converter Clutch Control Valve for sticking in the bore.
    5. Check the Teflon seal rings on the input shaft. Note: If one of the seal rings is cut, the loose piece will often lodge in the TCC switch valve, causing it to stick in its bore.
    6. If no problems are found, replace the Transmission Solenoid/TRS Assembly.
