Test Procedure

  1. BB1 CHECK FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) 

    Are DTCs P0886, P0887, P2531, or P2533 present? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB2  . If sent to this test from Pinpoint Test BC, GO to BB2  .
    For all others, GO to  BB3.
  2. BB2 CHECK THE BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM 
    • Check the battery and charging system voltages. Refer to the charging system article.

    Are the battery and charging system voltages within specification? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB3  . REPAIR as necessary. REFER to the charging system article.
    Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  3. BB3 CHECK THE TCM POWER RELAY 
    • Carry out the TCM power relay component test. Refer to the OEM Wiring Diagrams Component Testing article.

    Does the TCM power relay pass the component test? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB4  . INSTALL a new TCM Power relay. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  4. BB4 CHECK THE VOLTAGE TO THE TCM POWER RELAY 
    • Ignition ON, engine OFF.
    • Measure the voltage between:
      (+) TCM Power Relay Connector, Harness Side (-)
      B+ - Pin 1, 3 Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 10.5 V? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB5  . REPAIR the open circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  5. BB5 CHECK THE TCMRC CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • TCM-A connector disconnected.
    • Measure the resistance between:
      (+) TCM Power Relay Connector, Harness Side (-) TCM-A Connector, Harness Side
      TCMRC - Pin 2 TCMRC - Pin 40

    Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB6  . REPAIR the open circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  6. BB6 CHECK THE TCMRC CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Measure the resistance between:
      (+) TCM-A Connector, Harness Side (-)
      TCMRC - Pin 40 Ground

    Is the resistance greater than 10K ohms? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB7  . REPAIR the short circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  7. BB7 CHECK THE TCMRC CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition ON, engine OFF.
    • Measure the voltage between:
      (+) TCM-A Connector, Harness Side (-)
      TCMRC - Pin 40 Ground

    Is any voltage present? 

    Yes No
    REPAIR the short circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test. GO to BB8  .
  8. BB8 CHECK FOR AN OPEN VPWR CIRCUIT BETWEEN THE TCM AND TCM POWER RELAY 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Measure the resistance between:
      (+) TCM Power Relay Connector, Harness Side (-) TCM-A Connector, Harness Side
      VPWR - Pin 5 VPWR - Pin 10, 9

    Are the resistances less than 5 ohms? 

    Yes No
    GO to BB9  . REPAIR the open circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  9. BB9 CHECK THE TCM POWER RELAY VPWR CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition ON, engine OFF.
    • Measure the voltage between:
      (+) TCM Power Relay Connector, Harness Side (-)
      VPWR - Pin 5 Ground

    Is any voltage present? 

    Yes No
    REPAIR the short circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test. GO to BB10  .
  10. BB10 CHECK THE TCM VPWR CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Measure the voltage between:
      (+) TCM-A Connector, Harness Side (-)
      VPWR - Pin 29 Ground

    Is any voltage present? 

    Yes No
    REPAIR the short circuit. Clear the SOBDMC DTCs. REPEAT the self-test. GO to BB11  .
  11. BB11 CHECK FOR CORRECT TCM OPERATION 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect all the TCM connectors.
    • Visually inspect for:
      • pushed out pins
      • corrosion
    • Connect all the TCM connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
    • Carry out the SOBDMC self-test.
    • Verify the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes No
    INSTALL a new TCM.
    REFER to the Automatic Transmission article. REFER to FLASH ELECTRICALLY ERASABLE PROGRAMMABLE READ ONLY MEMORY (EEPROM) , Programming the TRID Block for a Replacement TCM.
    The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
