Intermittent fault

Check the control module and transmission input speed sensor connectors for contact resistance and oxidation according to Contact resistance and oxidation .

Check the power supply cable between control module terminal #11 and terminal #2 on the black 2-pin transmission connector. Check for an intermittent open-circuit according to Open-circuit, intermittent faults . Check for an intermittent short-circuit to ground according to Short-circuit to ground, intermittent faults .

Check the signal cable between control module terminal #12 and terminal #1 on the black 2-pin transmission connector (control module side). Check for an intermittent open-circuit according to Open-circuit, intermittent faults . Check for an intermittent short-circuit to ground according to Short-circuit to ground, intermittent faults .

Remedy as necessary.
