DTC Descriptor
DTC P16F7: Control Module Pressure Control Solenoid Command IncorrectCircuit/System Description
This is an internal fault detection of the transmission control module (TCM). This fault is handled inside the TCM and no external circuits are involved. The TCM is part of the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly, and is not serviced separately.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly runs the program to detect an internal fault when the key is ON or the engine is running. |
| • | Ignition voltage is 8-18 volts. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly has detected an internal malfunction.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | DTC P16F7 is a Type A DTC. |
| • | The TCM shifts to a default gear, shuts down, and turns OFF. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P16F7 is a Type A DTC
Diagnostic Aids
When attempting to set TCM internal DTCs, run the engine for at least 1 minute, and then shut the engine off for 30 seconds. Following this procedure will allow for a complete TCM shutdown. Program the TCM with the latest software version and retest the DTC to see if the DTC resets.
