7A-148 Transmission Control System (Smoother)

P0974 (Flash Code 71)

Circuit Description
The pulse width modulation (PWM) 2-4-6-R shift
solenoid valve is located on the gearshift control box.
The transmission control module (TCM) controls the 2-
4-6-R shift solenoid valve by duty cycle signal based on
commanded gear position. The 2-4-6-R shift solenoid is
commanded ON when the commanded gear is set to
2nd, 4th, 6th and reverse gear. When disengaging
from1st, 3rd and 5th gear, the 2-4-6-R shift solenoid is
also commanded ON. The gear shift position sensor is
used to detect the shift side lever position feedback for
the shift solenoid valves movement. The TCM uses the
gear shift position sensor to determine the current gear
position with a combination of the gear select position
sensor. If the TCM detects a low voltage condition on
the 2-4-6-R shift solenoid valve monitor circuit when the
solenoid valve is commanded ON, this DTC will set.
Condition for Running the DTC

• DTC P0889 is not set.
• The ignition switch is ON.
• The ignition voltage is more than 20 volts.
• The emergency switch is OFF.
• The gearshift control box relay is commanded ON.

Condition for Setting the DTC

• The TCM detects a low voltage condition on the 2-

4-6-R shift solenoid valve monitor circuit when the
solenoid valve is commanded ON.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The TCM illuminates the transmission warning

lamp when the diagnostic runs and fails.

• The TCM intermittently sounds buzzer when the

diagnostic runs and fails.

• The TCM commands OFF gearshift control box

relay.

• The TCM inhibits gearshift control and holds gear

position when the diagnostic runs and fails.

• The TCM inhibits gear select & shift position

learning and half-clutch learning.

Condition for Clearing the DTC

• The TCM turns OFF the transmission warning

lamp when the diagnostic runs and does not fail at
next ignition cycle

• The TCM stops the buzzer when the diagnostic

runs and does not fail at next ignition cycle.

• A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and

does not fail at next ignition cycle.

• A history DTC clears with the Tech 2 or reset

switch operation.

Diagnostic Aids

• If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to

Intermittent Conditions in this section.

P0976 (Flash Code 73)

Circuit Description
The pulse width modulation (PWM) 1-3-5 shift solenoid
valve is located on the gearshift control box. The
transmission control module (TCM) controls the 1-3-5
shift solenoid valve by duty cycle signal based on
commanded gear position. The 1-3-5 shift solenoid is
commanded ON when the commanded gear is set to
1st, 3rd and 5th gear. When disengaging from 2nd, 4th,
6th and reverse gear, the 1-3-5 shift solenoid is also
commanded ON. The gear shift position sensor is used
