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


- When Monitored:

With the ignition on. Battery voltage greater than 10 volts.

- Set Condition:

An shorted condition of the Transmission Control Output circuit is detected by the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM).







Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. 68RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure



Diagnostic Test


1. CHECK IF THE DTC IS ACTIVE

Ignition on, engine not running.

With the scan tool, read TIPM DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Go to 4



2. (T16) TRANSMISSION CONTROL OUTPUT CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE





Turn the ignition off to the lock position.

Disconnect the TIPM C10 harness connector.

Disconnect the PCM C4 harness connector.

Ignition on, engine not running.

Measure the voltage of the (T16) Transmission Control Output circuit.

Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?

Yes

- Repair the (T16) Transmission Control Output circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform 68RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. 68RFE Transmission Verification Test

No

- Go to 3
-



3. TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE

Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors.

Check the TIPM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out

Pay particular attention to all power and ground circuits.

Were there any problems found?

Yes

- Repair as necessary.
- Perform 68RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. 68RFE Transmission Verification Test

No

- Replace the Totally Integrated Power Module.
- Perform 68RFE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. 68RFE Transmission Verification Test



4. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS

The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.

While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring and connectors.

Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.

Were any problems found?

Yes

- Repair as necessary.
