Test B: The Transmission Control Module (TCM) Does Not Respond To The Scan Tool
PINPOINT TEST B: THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE SCAN TOOL
Normal Operation
The 6R60 transmission utilizes a transmission control module (TCM) to control transmission functions. The TCM communicates with the scan tool
through the high speed controller area network (HS-CAN). Circuits VDB04 (WH/BU) (HS-CAN +) and VDB05 (WH) (HS-CAN -) provide the
network connection to the TCM. The TCM shares the HS-CAN with the PCM, the ABS module, the restraints control module (RCM), the 4X4 control
module (if equipped), the occupant classification system module (OCSM) and the instrument cluster (IC). Voltage for the TCM is provided by circuits
SBB27 (BU/RD) and CE517 (BU/GN). Circuit GD113 (BK/YE) provides ground.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
-
Fuse
-
Wiring, terminals or connectors
-
TCM
