DTC P0758 2-3 Shift Solenoid Circuit Electrical 4.3L
Circuit Description
The 2-3 shift solenoid (SS) valve controls the fluid flow acting on the 2-3 shift valves. The solenoid is a normally-open exhaust valve. With the 1-2 SS valve, the 2-3 SS valve allows four different shifting combinations. The solenoid attaches to the control valve body within the transmission. The 2-3 SS valve receives ignition voltage through circuit 1020. The vehicle control module (VCM) controls the solenoid by providing the ground path on circuit 1223.
When the VCM detects a continuous open or short to ground in the 2-3 SS valve circuit or the 2-3 SS valve, then DTC P0758 sets. DTC P0758 is a type A DTC.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The system voltage is 10-19 volts. |
| • | The engine speed is greater than 450 RPM for 5 seconds. |
| • | The engine is not in fuel cutoff. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC P0758 sets if either of the following conditions occurs for 5 seconds:
| • | The VCM commands the solenoid ON and the voltage input remains high (B+). |
| • | The VCM commands the solenoid OFF and the voltage input remains low (0 volts). |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The VCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). |
| • | The VCM commands third gear only. |
| • | The VCM commands maximum line pressure. |
| • | The VCM inhibits TCC engagement. |
| • | The VCM freezes shift adapts from being updated. |
| • | The VCM stores DTC P0758 in VCM history. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The VCM turns OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test runs and passes. |
| • | A scan tool clears the DTC from VCM history. |
| • | The VCM clears the DTC from VCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission-related diagnostic fault occurring. |
| • | The VCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the VCM. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | Inspect the wiring at the VCM, the transmission connector and all other circuit connecting points for the following conditions: |
| - | A backed out terminal |
| - | A damaged terminal |
| - | Reduced terminal tension |
| - | A chafed wire |
| - | A broken wire inside the insulation |
| - | Moisture intrusion |
| - | Corrosion |
| • | When diagnosing for an intermittent short or open condition, massage the wiring harness while watching the test equipment for a change. |
| • | Refer to the Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio table. |
