Circuit Description
The torque converter clutch (TCC) pressure control solenoid (PCS) is a pressure proportional to current (PCC) solenoid used to control the TCC apply and release. The transmission control module (TCM) provides voltage to the main modulation (MAIN MOD), TCC and pressure control solenoid 1 (PCS1) through a separate solid-state device called high side driver 1 (HSD1). The TCM regulates the amount of current to the TCC PCS by switching the low side driver ON and OFF.
DTC P2763 is a type A DTC.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P2763 Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Pressure Control Solenoid (PCS) Control Circuit High
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | DTC P0716, P0717, P0721 and P0722 are not active. |
| • | The components are powered and ignition voltage is greater than 9.0 volts and less than 18 volts. |
| • | Engine speed is greater than 200 RPM and less than 7,500 RPM for 5 seconds. |
| • | TCM initialization is in process. |
| • | The TCC is commanded ON. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC P2763 sets when the TCM detects a short to voltage on the TCC PCS return circuit for greater than 6 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The TCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). |
| • | If the failure occurs while in a forward range, a shift to 1st, 3rd or 5th range is made. |
| • | While diagnostic response is active, if the shift selector is moved to NEUTRAL, the transmission will shift to NEUTRAL. If the shift selector is moved to REVERSE, the transmission will shift to REVERSE. If the shift selector is moved to a forward range or to REVERSE and the transmission is compromised by overspeeding or direction change, the transmission will shift to NEUTRAL. |
| • | DTC P2763 is stored in TCM history. |
| • | The TCM inhibits MAIN MOD. |
| • | The TCM inhibits REVERSE operation. |
| • | The TCM freezes shift adapts. |
| • | The TCM inhibits TCC engagement. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
A scan tool can clear the code from TCM history. The TCM automatically clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without failure.
Diagnostic Aids
| • | Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the TCM. Inspect for the following conditions: |
| - | A bent terminal |
| - | A backed-out terminal |
| - | A damaged terminal |
| - | Poor terminal tension |
| - | A chafed wire |
| - | A broken wire inside the insulation |
| • | When diagnosing for an intermittent short or open, massage the wiring harness while watching the test equipment for a change. |
| • | You may have to drive the vehicle in order to experience a condition. |

Important: Before clearing the DTC, use the scan tool in order to record the Freeze Frame and Failure Records for reference. The Clear Info function will erase the data. Is voltage within the specified value? | 9-18 V | Go to Step 3 | Go to DTC P0562 for low voltage or DTC P0563 for high voltage |
3 |
Is the voltage within the specified value when the TCC PCS is commanded ON? | Less than battery voltage | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections | Go to Step 4 |
4 |
Is the voltage greater than the specified value? | 0 V | Go to Step 5 | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections |
5 |
Is voltage greater than the specified value? | 0 V | Go to Step 8 | Go to Step 6 |
6 |
Is the voltage greater than the specified value? | 0 V | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 7 |
7 |
Is the resistance within the specified value? | 5.05 ohms at 20°C (68°F) | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections | Go to Step 10 |
8 | Test the TCC PCS circuit between the TCM and the AT inline 20-way connector for a short to voltage. Refer to Testing for a Short to Voltage . Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 11 | -- |
9 | Replace the AT internal wiring harness. Refer to Wiring Harness Replacement . Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 11 | -- |
10 | Replace the TCC PCS. Refer to Control Valve Solenoid Replacement . Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 11 | -- |
11 | Perform the following procedure in order to verify the repair:
Has the test run and passed? | -- | Go to Step 12 | Go to Step 2 |
12 | With the scan tool, observe the stored information, capture info and DTC info. Does the scan tool display any DTCs that you have not diagnosed? | -- | System OK | |
