4L80-E / 4L85-E Automatic Transmission

DTC P0757





Test 1-5

Circuit Description with 4L80-E / 4L85-E Automatic Transmission
The 2-3 Shift Solenoid (SS) valve controls fluid flow acting on the 2-3 shift valves. The 2-3 SS valve is a normally-open exhaust valve used with the 1-2 SS valve in order to allow for four different shift combinations. If the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) detects a non third gear ratio while third gear is commanded, then DTC P0757 sets. DTC P0757 is a type C DTC. For California emissions vehicles and vehicles under 8600 GVW, DTC P0757 is a type A DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC
^ No MAF sensor DTCs P0101, P0102 or P0103.
^ No MAP sensor DTCs P0106, P0107, or P0108.
^ No TP sensor DTCs P0121, P0122, or P0123.
^ No AT OSS DTCs P0502 or P0503.
^ No AT ISS DTCs P0716 or P0717.
^ No 4WD low DTC P1875.
^ Not in 4WD low.
^ No TFP manual valve position switch DTC P1810.
^ No shift solenoid electrical DTCs P0753 or P0758.
^ The engine runs more than 400 RPM for 7 seconds.
^ The vehicle speed is greater than 4 km/h (2 mph).
^ The system voltage is 10.0-18.0 volts.
^ The TIP angle is greater than 10 percent.
^ The Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) is greater than 20°C (68°F) and less than 130°C (266°F).
^ The engine torque must be between 108 Nm (80 ft. lbs.) and:
- 6.0 L: 576 Nm (425 ft. lbs.)
- 8.1 L: 881 Nm (650 ft. lbs.)

Conditions for Setting the DTC
^ The commanded gear equals 3rd and the ratio equals 2nd for greater than 4 seconds. All conditions are met for 7 occurrences.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) for California emissions vehicles.
^ The PCM commands a soft landing to 2nd gear.
^ The PCM commands maximum line pressure.
^ The PCM freezes shift adapts.
^ The PCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
^ The PCM stores this information as Freeze Frame (Calif. only) and Failure Records (Calif. and Federal).
^ The PCM stores DTC P0756 in PCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ For California emissions, the PCM turns OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test runs and passes.
^ A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.
^ For California emissions, the PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ For Federal emissions, the PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a non-emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ The PCM 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 PCM.

Diagnostic Aids
^ Verify that the transmission meets the specifications in the Shift Speed table.
^ Other internal transmission failures may cause more than one shift to occur.
^ The customer may complain of an engine over-rev condition or neutral condition in 4th gear. Refer to Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio.
^ DTC P0757 defaults to an elevated line pressure condition which may result in TCC partial apply. This may induce idle surge and engine stall.
