Circuit Description
The 2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve (2-3 SS Valve) is a normally-open exhaust valve that, in conjunction with the 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve (1-2 SS Valve), allows 4 different shifting combinations (Refer to the 4T40-E Shift Solenoid State table). The 2-3 SS Valve is attached to the control valve body, within the transmission.
The solenoid receives ignition voltage through the fused circuit. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) commands the solenoid ON or OFF by providing a ground path through circuit 1223.
When 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 Setting the DTC
| • | The ignition switch is in the RUN position. |
| • | The PCM commands the solenoid ON, and the voltage remains high for 4.3 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). |
| • | The PCM freezes shift adapts from being updated. |
| • | The PCM commands maximum line pressure. |
| • | The PCM inhibits TCC engagement. |
| • | The PCM commands an immediate landing to 2nd gear. |
| • | DTC P0758 is stored in the PCM history. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The PCM turns OFF the MIL after three consecutive ignition cycles without a failure reported. |
| • | A scan tool can clear the DTC from the PCM history. The PCM clears the DTC from the PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a failure reported. |
| • | The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the ignition is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | An open in circuit 439 will cause multiple DTCs to set. |
| • | Inspect for a stuck TP sensor. |
| • | Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the PCM. Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the transmission 20-way connector. Look 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 condition, massage the wiring harness while watching the test equipment for a change. |
