Circuit/System Description
The transmission fluid pressure (TFP) switch 5
assembly is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has
no serviceable components. The transmission control
module (TCM) supplies a signal circuit to the TFP
switch 5. The TFP switch 5 has an internal case ground.
TFP switch 5 is normally closed, or Low. When oil pressure is
present at the TFP switch 5, the switch is open, or High. The
normally high clutch pressure control (PC) solenoid 3
controls pressure to the R1/4-5-6 clutch regulator valve. The
TCM monitors the TFP switch 5 to determine the position of the
R1/4-5-6 clutch regulator valve. When the low and reverse
clutch and 4-5-6 clutch are commanded OFF, pressure is present
on the TFP switch 5. When the low and reverse clutch or
4-5-6 clutch is commanded ON, the R1/4-5-6 clutch
regulator valve moves and pressure to the TFP switch 5 is
exhausted through the R1/4-5-6 clutch regulator valve.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• |
DTC P0711, P0712, P0713, P0716, P0717, P0722,
P0723, P0742, P0751, P0756, P0757, P0973, P0974, P0976, P0977,
P1915, or P182E is not set. |
• |
The engine speed is 400 RPM or greater for
5 seconds. |
• |
The ignition voltage is 9.0 volts or
greater. |
• |
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) is
-7 to +110°C (19-230°F). |
• |
The high side driver is ON. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0989
The TCM detects that the TFP switch 5 signal voltage
remains LOW after the low and reverse clutch or 4-5-6 clutch
transitions from a HIGH pressure state to a LOW pressure state. The
TCM counts each incident. The DTC sets when 17 counts are
accumulated.
P0990
The TCM detects that the TFP switch 5 signal voltage
remains HIGH after the low and reverse clutch or 4-5-6 clutch
transitions from a LOW pressure state to a HIGH pressure state. The
TCM counts each incident. The DTC sets when 30 counts are
accumulated.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• |
DTCs P0989 and P0990 are
Type C DTCs. |
• |
The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions on
the low and reverse clutch and 4-5-6 clutch. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P0989 and P0990 are Type C DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
A TFP switch may malfunction due to normal debris in the
transmission fluid causing a TFP Switch DTC to intermittently set.
This type of condition should not be immediately noticeable to a
customer, as the switch outputs are used for shift adaptive
pressure and do not cause transmission symptoms unless the switch
malfunctions continuously for an extended period of time.

Circuit/System Verification
Warning: Chock the wheels to
prevent the vehicle from moving. Failure to chock the wheels can
cause personal injury when the electrical system is
repaired.
- Engine ticking over in PARK with handbrake applied,
and drive wheels chocked.
- Monitor the Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch 1,
Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch 3, Transmission Fluid
Pressure Switch 4, and Transmission Fluid Pressure
Switch 5 parameters with a scan tool.
- Place the gear select lever in Park, Reverse, and
Neutral range. Verify the TFP switch parameter states are correct
for each range. Refer to
Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch Logic .
- Place the gear select lever in Drive range. Command
the shift transmission with a scan tool through all forward ranges.
Verify the TFP switch parameter states are correct for each range.
Refer to
Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch Logic .
⇒ |
If any TFP switch parameter state does not match
the logic table, replace the Q8 control solenoid valve
assembly. |
- After performing the above steps, verify that the DTC
does not reset by operating the vehicle within the Conditions for
Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the
conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records
data. If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification
procedure, refer to
Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
Repair Instructions
Note:
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic
procedure.
