Diagnostic Test

DETERMINING IF RELATED DTCS ARE PRESENT
1. With the scan tool, check for other transmission DTCs
  Is the DTC P0841 present also?
  
  Yes
  - See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Diagnosis and Testing and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
  No
  - Go to step 2
CHECK TO SEE IF DTC P1776 IS CURRENT
1. With the scan tool, Check the Starts Since Set counter.
  NOTE: NOTE: This counter only applies to the last DTC set.
  
  Is the Starts Since Set counter 2 or less?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 3
  No
  - Go to step 7
PCM AND WIRING
1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
2. Remove the Starter Relay.
  CAUTION: Removal of the Starter Relay will prevent the vehicle from being started in gear.
  
  WARNING: The Starter Relay must be removed from the PDC. Failure to do so may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
  
  NOTE: Failure to remove the Starter Relay can cause a Transmission - No Response condition.
3. Install the Transmission Simulator 8333.
4. Ignition on, engine not running.
5. With the Transmission Simulator, turn the Pressure Switch selector switch to the L/R position.
6. With the scan tool, monitor the L/R Pressure Switch state while pressing the Pressure Switch Test button on the Transmission Simulator.
  Did the state of the L/R Pressure Switch change while pressing the Pressure Switch Test button?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 4
  No
  - Go to step 5
SOLENOID SWITCH VALVE
1. Remove the Valve Body in accordance with the Service Information.
2. Inspect the Solenoid Switch Valve and plugs for sticking in the bore and/or wear.
  Were there any problems found?
  
  Yes
  - Clean and repair as necessary in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the 545RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 7
L/R PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT OPEN

1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
2. Disconnect the Transmission Simulator 8333.
3. Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector and connect the PCM Pinout Box 8815.
  NOTE: Note: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
  
  CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install the PCM Pinout Box 8815 to perform diagnosis.
4. Measure the resistance of the (T50) L/R Pressure Switch Sense circuit between the appropriate terminal of the PCM Pinout Box 8815 to the Solenoid/TRS Assembly harness connector.
  Is the resistance above 5.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (T50) L/R Pressure Switch Sense circuit for an open.
  - Perform the 545RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 6
(T50) L/R PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

1. Measure the resistance between ground and the (T50) L/R Pressure Switch Sense circuit.
  Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (T50) L/R Pressure Switch Sense circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the 545RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Using the schematics as a guide, check the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to all power and ground circuits. If no problems are found, replace and program the PCM in accordance with the Service Information. With the scan tool, perform Quick Learn.
  - Perform the 545RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
CHECK THE WIRING AND CONNECTORS
1. The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
2. Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors specific to this circuit.
3. Wiggle the wires while checking for shorted and open circuits.
4. This DTC can also be set by the Solenoid Switch Valve intermittently sticking in it's bore under extreme temperature conditions, or by a worn Solenoid Switch Valve or plugs.
5. With the scan tool, check the Event Data to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.
  Where there any problems found?
  
  Yes
  - Repair as necessary.
  - Perform the 545RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Test Complete.
