Important: Whenever the transmission 20-way connector is disconnected and the engine is running, multiple DTCs will set. Be sure to clear these codes when you are finished with this procedure.

Important: This procedure tests the Automatic Transmission Fluid Pressure Manual Valve Position Switch (TFP Val. Position Sw.) circuits and the Automatic Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor circuit. Do not use this procedure to test other Automatic Transmission circuits. Refer to the Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness Check .

1. Install the J 39775 Jumper Harness on the transmission side of the 20-way connector.
