48RE Automatic Transmission - Gas

P0751-O/D SWITCH PRESSED (LO) MORE THAN 5 MINUTES





For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical. Electrical Diagrams


Theory of Operation


The Tow/haul Overdrive OFF (control) Switch is located in the shift lever arm. The switch is a momentary contact device that signals the PCM to toggle current status of the overdrive function. At ignition on, overdrive operation is allowed. Pressing the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch once causes the Tow/haul Overdrive OFF mode to be entered and the Tow/Haul lamp to be illuminated. Pressing the switch a second time causes normal overdrive operation to be restored and the Tow/haul lamp to be turned off. The Tow/haul Overdrive OFF mode defaults to ON after the ignition switch is cycled OFF and ON. The normal position for the control switch is the ON position. The switch must be in this position to energize the solenoid and allow a 3-4 upshift. The control switch indicator light illuminates only when the Tow/haul Overdrive Off switch is turned to the OFF position, or when illuminated by the transmission control module.


- When Monitored:

The engine must have been running for at minimum of 10 seconds. The circuit is tested every 440ms.

- Set Condition:

This DTC will set if the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off Switch Sense circuit is held low for 5 minutes or more from the time of switch closure or ignition on with the engine running.







Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Pre-Diagnostic Trouble Shooting Procedure - 48RE Gas



Diagnostic Test


1. TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND





Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the PCM C3 harness connector.

Disconnect the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch harness connector.

Measure the resistance between ground and the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch sense circuit in the PCM C3 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Repair the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch sense circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform RE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (GAS). Transmission Verification Test

No

- Go To 2



2. CHECK THE TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH





Reconnect the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch harness connector.

Measure the resistance between ground and the O/D Tow/Haul Switch Sense circuit in the PCM C3 harness connector.

Press the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch button.

Does the resistance change from above 5.0 ohms to below 5.0 ohms while pressing the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch button?

Yes

- Using the schematics as a guide, check the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) pins, terminals, and connectors for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to all power and ground circuits. If no problems are found, replace and program the PCM.
- Perform RE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (GAS). Transmission Verification Test

No

- Replace the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch.
- Perform RE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (GAS). Transmission Verification Test
