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 4L60-E
