  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to EXTERIOR LIGHTING .
P2700 - Forward Clutch System Fault (includes non-electrical SSA  faults, main control valve body and forward clutch) Forward clutch failed on or off See P0751 and P0752 .
  • See P0751 and P0752 .
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2700 P0751, P2700 Forward Clutch System Faults (includes non-electrical SSA  faults, valve body and clutch) Forward clutch failed off Forward clutch failed off, could be due to:
  • Forward clutch VFS  (SSA  ) non-electrical failed stuck off (no pressure).
  • Forward clutch stuck off due to mechanical failure.
  • Forward clutch regulator valve stuck in the default position.
  • Forward clutch boost valve stuck in the default position.
  • Customer may notice neutral conditions or flares on downshifts from 5th or 6th as the test is determining Forward is failed off.
  • Once a code is stored, all gears with Forward on are disabled - leaving 5th and 6th as the only Forward gears.
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting, harsh engagements, neutral conditions, flares, poor launch performance (due to 5th drive away), harsh reverse engagements.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2700 P0752, P2700 Forward Clutch System Faults (includes non-electrical SSA  faults, valve body and clutch) Forward clutch failed on Forward clutch failed on, could be due to:
  • Forward clutch VFS  (SSA  ) non-electrical failed stuck on (pressure).
  • Forward clutch stuck on due to mechanical failure.
  • Forward clutch regulator valve stuck in the default position.
  • Forward clutch regulator valve stuck in the spring compressed position.
  • Customer may notice a vehicle deceleration on a shift into 5th or 6th gears (forward clutch failing to release will cause a tie-up in 5th or 6th gears).
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting or being stuck in 4th gear while the test is confirming forward clutch is failed on.
  • After a code is stored 5th and 6th are disabled. Customer might notice higher than normal engine speeds and loss of fuel economy.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2701 - Direct Clutch System Fault (includes non-electrical SSB  faults, valve body and clutch) Direct clutch failed on
  • Direct clutch failed on due to a mechanical fault.
  • Due to the hydraulic controls the clutch can be isolated from the solenoid - this failure code means direct clutch is on in 1st gear under conditions where the SSB  (direct clutch VFS  ) cannot cause it to apply.
  • Customer may notice a vehicle deceleration on a shift into 2nd, 4th or 6th gear (direct clutch failing to release will cause a tie-up in these gears).
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting while the test is confirming direct clutch is failed on.
  • After a code is stored all gears but 3rd and 5th are disabled.
  • Since only 3rd and 5th gears are allowed the customer might notice:
    • poor launch performance.
    • lack of shifts.
    • harsh engagements.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2702 - Intermediate Clutch System Faults (includes clutch, valve body and non-electrical SSC  faults) Intermediate clutch failed on or off See P0761 and P0762 .
  • See P0761 and P0762 .
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2702 P0761, P2702 Intermediate Clutch System Faults (includes clutch, valve body and non-electrical SSC  faults) Intermediate clutch failed off Intermediate clutch failed off, could be due to:
  • Intermediate clutch VFS  (SSC  ) non-electrical failed stuck off (no pressure).
  • Intermediate clutch stuck off due to mechanical failure.
  • Intermediate clutch regulator valve stuck in the default position.
  • Customer may notice neutral conditions or flares on shifts to 2nd or 6th as the test is determining intermediate clutch is failed off.
  • Once a code is stored, all gears with intermediate clutch on are disabled (2nd and 6th gears) leaving 1st gear without engine braking, 1st gear with engine braking, 3rd, 4th and 5th gears.
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting, neutral conditions, flares, higher engine speeds on highway (due to 6th gear being disabled).
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2702 P0762, P2702 Intermediate Clutch System Faults (includes clutch, valve body and non-electrical SSC  faults) Intermediate clutch failed on Intermediate clutch failed on, could be due to:
  • Intermediate clutch VFS  (SSC  ) non-electrical failed stuck on (pressure).
  • Intermediate clutch stuck on due to mechanical failure.
  • Intermediate clutch regulator valve stuck in the spring compressed position.
  • Customer may notice a vehicle deceleration on a shift into 3rd or 5th gears (intermediate clutch failing to release will cause a tie-up in 3rd or 5th gears).
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting or being stuck in 6th gear while the test is confirming C26 is failed on.
  • After a code is stored 1st gear with engine braking, 1st gear without engine braking, 3rd, 4th and 5th gears are disabled.
  • Customer might notice hanging in 2nd gear on acceleration since 2nd gear - 6th gear upshifts only occur at closed pedal (due to energy limitations of O/D  clutch), harsh reverse engagements (since low/reverse clutch is not on in 2nd gear).
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2703 - Low/Reverse Clutch and OWC  Faults (covers just the clutches) Low/reverse clutch failed off Low/reverse clutch provides engine braking in 1st gear and is required to achieve reverse.
  • Low/reverse clutch is only tested for failed off in the low manual lever position.
  • The customer might notice not getting engine braking in 1st gear with engine braking, and erratic shifting as the OBD isolates the fault to low/reverse clutch failed off.
  • Once a code is stored 2nd gear will be provided in place of 1st in the Low manual lever range.
  • Customer might also experience delayed or no reverse engagement.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2704 - O/D  Clutch System Faults (includes non-electrical SSD  faults, valve body and clutch) O/D  clutch failed off (clutch fault only)
  • O/D  clutch failed off.
  • Since SSD  (low/reverse clutch/O/D  clutch VFS  ) is multiplexed we can isolate O/D  clutch failed off mechanical faults (set P2704) from SSD  failed to no pressure (sets P0766).
  • Customer may notice neutral conditions or flares on shifts into 4th, 5th, or 6th gear.
  • 4th, 5th and 6th gears are disabled.
  • Customer might notice erratic shifting, neutral conditions, flares, high engine RPM (since 3rd gear is top available gear).
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2705 - OWC  Faults (covers just the clutches) OWC  failed off
  • OWC  holds in 1st gear without engine braking. If the OWC  fails off, 1st gear without engine braking is failed to neutral.
  • First gear with engine braking is disabled for this failure since low/reverse clutch is not intended to hold power on torque in 1st gear.
  • Customer might notice neutral conditions when 1st gear without engine braking is commanded.
  • Erratic shifting as the OBD isolates the cause of the neutral condition to the OWC  being failed.
  • Might also notice poor launch performance (due to 2nd gear drive away).
  • Harsh engagements.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
Refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
P2783 - Other Main Control Valve Body Faults (stuck valves) TCC  control valve
  • TCC  control valve stuck in the apply position. When the TCC  is commanded open there will be no flow through the TCC  (both apply and release circuits will be exhausted).
  • Test will run in 3rd or higher (when valve 2 is in the latched position, pointing SSD  at O/D  clutch) when the TCC  is commanded open. SSE  is turned on, if the control valve is stuck this will cause the TCC  to apply even though the TCC VFS  is off.
  • Erratic shifts, vehicle disengages at a stop while in drive or low, early TCC  apply.
  • Will turn on wrench lamp.
