-------------------------------------------------
H1 CHECK THE HARNESS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND


- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Transmission Control Module (TCM) C2352B.
- Disconnect: Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch C1536.
- Measure the resistance between transmission fluid pressure switch connector C1536, circuit CET46 (YE/GN) and ground.




- Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms?

Yes
GO to H2.

No
REPAIR circuit CET46 (YE/GN) for a short to ground. TEST the system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
H2 CHECK THE HARNESS FOR AN OPEN


- Measure the resistance between transmission fluid pressure switch C1536, circuit CET46 (YE/GN) and TCM C2352B-20, circuit CET46 (YE/GN).




- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes
GO to H3.

No
REPAIR circuit CET46 (YE/GN) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation.
