Circuit Description
The 2-3 shift solenoid (2-3 SS) valve controls transmission fluid pressure acting on the 1-2 and 2-3 shift valves to positionthe valves for the appropriate gear. The 2-3 SS valve is a normally-openexhaust valve located on the controlvalve body. A fused circuit suppliesignition voltage to the 2-3 SS valve. The PCM commands the solenoidON or OFF by switching the ground path. When the 2-3 SS valve is commandedON, the PCM senses low voltage. When the 2-3 SS valve is commandedOFF, the PCM senses high voltage. Refer to Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio .
If the PCM detects a continuous open, short to ground or short to power in the 2-3 SS valve circuit, then DTC P0758 sets. DTC P0758 is a type A DTC.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The system voltage is 9-18 volts. |
| • | The engine speed is greater than 500 RPM for 5 seconds and not in fuel shut off. |
| • | The PCM has commanded the 2-3 SS valve ON and OFF. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC P0758 sets when one of the following conditions occurs for 5 seconds:
Condition 1
The PCM commands the solenoid ON and the voltage feedback remains high, B+.
Condition 2
The PCM commands the solenoid OFF and the voltage feedback remains low, 0 volts.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The PCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). |
| • | The PCM commands 2nd gear. |
| • | The PCM commands maximum line pressure. |
| • | The PCM inhibits TCC. |
| • | The PCM freezes transmission adaptive functions. |
| • | The PCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The PCM stores this information as Freeze Frame and Failure Records. |
| • | The PCM stores DTC P0758 in PCM history. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The PCM turns OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test runs and passes. |
| • | A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC. |
| • | The PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission-related diagnostic fault occurring. |
| • | The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM. |
Diagnostic Aids
Ensure the wiring harness is not stretched too tightly or other components are pressing on the A/T inline 20-way connector body. Also inspect for proper clearance to any other components and wiring. Refer to Intermittent Conditions in Engine Controls -3.4L.
