Table 2: | DTC P0758 2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve -- Electrical |
The 2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve (2-3 SS Valve) controls the fluid flow acting on the 2-3 shift valves. The 2-3 SS Valve is a normally-open exhaust valve that is used with the 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve in order to allow 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 PCM controls the solenoid by providing the ground path on circuit 1223.
When the PCM 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.
• | The system voltage is 10-17 volts. |
• | The engine is running. |
• | All of the above conditions are met for 5 seconds, and either of the following fail conditions occurs for 5 seconds. |
- | The PCM commands the solenoid ON and the voltage remains high (B+). |
- | The PCM commands the solenoid OFF and the voltage remains low (0 volts). |
• | The PCM commands third gear only. |
• | The PCM commands maximum line pressure. |
• | The PCM freezes shift adapts from being updated. |
• | The PCM inhibits TCC engagement. |
• | The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). |
• | 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. |
• | 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. |
