Test requirements
-
Respective fuses must be OK
-
Battery voltage must be at least 11.5 volts.
-
Selector lever must be in -P- position.
-
Ground (GND) connections to transmission must be OK.
-
All electrical consumers such as, for example, lights and rear window defroster must be switched off.
-
Parking brake must be engaged or else daylight driving lights will be switched on.
-

Test sequence
-
Disconnect 16-pin harness connector -2-.
Observe safety precautions.
-
Check harness connector for contact corrosion and ingress of water.
If harness connector is not OK:
-
Repair the malfunction.
-
Erase DTC memory of Transmission Control Module (TCM). Diagnostic mode 4: Reset/erase diagnostic data. See: Computers and Control
Systems/Testing and Inspection/Scan Tool Testing and Procedures/With Generic Scan Tool/Diagnostic Mode 4: Reset/Erase Diagnostic Data
-
Generate readiness code. See: Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes
If harness connector is OK:
-
Check resistance of Pressure Control Valve 1 for Auto. Transmission -N215- through Pressure Control Valve 4 for Auto. Transmission -N218- at
16-pin connector to transmission.
Checking resistance of pressure regulator valves
-
Check pressure regulator valve resistance between terminals at 16-pin connector to transmission
