Lance WigginsTechnical Director

ATRA is proud to be celebrating another year serving the automatic transmission repairindustry. Many changes have taken place over the last year and it’s because of thosechanges that technical training has become an integral part of today’s transmissionrepair industry.

To that end, ATRA is pleased to present its 2006 Technical Seminar. Packed with count-less hours of research and development, writing, editing, photography and layout, thisyear’s seminar will stand out as one of the most demanding and useful technical train-ing programs ever developed for this industry.

Once again, this year’s technical manual has been produced in full color. With over 325pages of up-to-the-minute technical information, the 2006 Technical Seminar Manualwill remain a valuable resource long after the seminar is just a memory.

We’re confident that you’ll find this year’s seminar presentation and technical manualboth informative and profitable. In fact, we’re so sure you’ll be satisfied with what youlearn in this program, we guarantee it!

This past year ATRA lost one of our own, Jim Lambos pasted away in December of 2005from a vehicle accident. As a reminder of his countless hours speant helping our mem-bers, we have deticated this 2006 Technical Seminar Manual to him and his family.

On behalf of the entire ATRA staff, the international board of directors, and all of theATRA members worldwide, we’d like to thank you for helping to make every day memo-rable.

2006 TECHNICAL SEMINAR6

IN MEMORY OFJIM LAMBOS

by Paul Morton

James J. “Jim” Lambos joined the

technical staff of ATRA in April of this

year, following a distinguished 25-year

career with the U.S. Air Force. While

in the Air Force, Jim held a number

of increasingly responsible positions

related to the repair and maintenance

of vehicles. Not surprisingly, one

of his specialties was the repair and

rebuilding of transmissions. In fact,

this skill was put to good use while he

was stationed at the remote outpost of

Shemya, Alaska, where Jim’s ability

to rebuild transmissions saved the Air

Force thousands of dollars in unneeded

shipping costs. At the time of his

retirement, Jim had been promoted to

the rank of Master Sergeant, and he had

received several awards and decorations

for meritorious service.

In 1985, Jim married the former

Ronda McIntire, and together they had

two sons; Jimmy, 14, and Zane, 10.

Following his retirement, Jim

walked into the ATRA IBO and spoke

with ATRA’s Technical Director, Lance

Wiggins. Though Lance will recall his

relationship with Jim in his own words,

he realized that Jim was someone he

wanted on the ATRA Technical team.

From the beginning, Jim began to make

a contribution. In fact, his fi rst technical

article appears in this issue, with a

forward written by Technical Editor

Larry Frash.

On the evening of

December 7, 2005, Jim

was driving his GTO in

nearby Ventura, when

he was involved in an

accident and killed. His

contribution and his loss

may best be described by

Lance Wiggins, in his own

words:

I try to learn from

my mistakes, and

the knowledge and

opinions of others. It

helps me grow into

the person I want to

become. Jim Lambos

is one person who

helped me in many

different ways, in a

short period of time.

Jim came to the offi ce

about eight months

ago, looking for a job

after many years in the

Air Force. His traits

and qualities were

clear and obvious; you don’t fi nd many

people like that, just walking in off the

street for an interview.

Jim’s military background defi -

nitely infl uenced my decision to hire

him, and what a good decision that was.

He was a complete team player; always

asking for more work and never com-

plaining about a thing. For those of you

who talked to Jim on the Technical Help

line, you know how he always went out

of his way to fi x your problems.

I can tell you two things about Jim’s

character that sums it up for me. One,

he was a Chicago Bears fan, and two,

he was a Cubs fan. And if you support

those two teams, you have to be special

as well as brave! If I could, I would

thank Jim for the time he spent with us,

for his loyalty and sense of team play,

and for being the person he was. I know

I speak for the entire ATRA family,

of which he will always be a part, the

Tech Department, and for me as well

… we will miss you. Rest in peace, my

friend.

Jim Lambos had been promoted to the rank of Master Sergeant, and he had received several awards and decorations for meritorious service.

A No command for 4th gear or TCC, no detent downshifts above 30 mph. The causeof this may be a Knock Sensor

A Knock Sensor DTC may be present (P0330). Whenever a knock sensor DTC isset 4th gear and TCC are inhibited and engine management goes into reducedpower strategy and detent downshift timing is affected. It is common for theknock sensors themselves to fail.

To repair the concern replace the knock sensor.

Notes: If knock sensor DTC is cleared normal shifting andoperation will be restored until PCM performs knock sensor testroutine and DTC is set again. There are two PID’s in scan data:OD CUT1 and OD CUT2. OD CUT1 responds to OD cancel switch(switches from YES to NO). OD CUT2 indicates PCM OD inhibitstrategy.

Beginning in April 2005 a new fluid was introduced into the GM line. Designed forthe new 6 speed automatic transmissions, Dexron VI has become the factory fill forGM applications. Dexron VI is designed to replace Dexron III as the service fill forGM applications. Dexron VI was developed by GM in conjunction with PetroCanada and Afton chemical company. Dexron VI is a significant advancementwhen compared to its counterpart Dexron III.The following chart represents the improvement over Dexron III.

In addition Dexron VI also offers the following advantages over Dexron III:• Reduces TCC shudder in PWM applications• Improved low temperature operation• Lower viscosity• More consistent viscosity profile• 99.9 % pure base stock profile

The following are the standards Dexron VI is designed to meet and maintain inproduction:

Dexron VI is required for clutch to clutch shift transmissions like the 6 speedapplications released for the 2006 model year. Dexron VI is designed to backservice all Dexron applications but it is not currently certified to meet the Merconstandard.

Technicians that use a snap shot feature on their meter or use an oscilloscope toaid in diagnosis may misdiagnose the cause of APP DTCs. Your scan tool mayregister DTCs P0122, P0123, P0220, P0222, P1120, P1220, P1221, P1271, P1275,P1280, P1512, P1514, P1515, P1523, P2101, P2120, P2122 or P2123 on GM “T”,“Z”, “L” trucks and GM “A” and “Z” car applications. This may lead the technicianto replace components that are not faulty.

NOTE: The body styles are as follows:• T= Trailblazer, Envoy, Colorado, Canyon, H3, Bravada• Z= Vue• L= Equinox• A= Cobalt, Pursuit• Z= Malibu, G6, Ion

These applications utilize a special software algorithm that is used to locate faultsin the APP and TP systems. When monitoring some APP or TP sensors the techni-cian may notice that the voltage drops on the circuit. This condition only lasts forabout 6.5ms. This test is performed to determine if there is a short in the sensorsor the wiring is present. By monitoring the signal for the other sensors at thetime the sensor signal is shorted to ground, the PCM can determine if a short toany of the other circuit are present. If APP, TP DTC’s are not set, no repairsshould be attempted. If a TP or APP DTC is set, refer to the service information toassist with diagnosis for the DTC’s that are set.

Chevrolet Aveo or a Pontiac Wave equipped with an Aisin Warner 81-40LE (RPOMV6) automatic transmissions may exhibit a no shift into 4th gear at times. Thecustomer may indicate that this is an intermittent condition and generally hap-pens after a cold start.

The 81-40 LE is programmed to inhibit 4th gear anytime transmission tempera-ture is below 59°F (15°C). This feature is designed to lower emissions and en-hance heater operation during engine warm up. This should be considered anormal condition.

Intermittent or Unwanted downshifts while operating the vehicle in a coast condi-tion set, may be caused by a weak internal brake booster vacuum spring thatprevents the brake booster pedal position sensor from returning to the releasedposition. The pedal position sensor can be monitored using ABS data. The EBCMsignals the PCM which then signals the TCM regarding the brake pedal sensorposition via the scan data, causing the condition to occur. To repair replace thebrake booster. This condition will not set a DTC.

Several GM vehicles equipped with a 3.6L (LY7) or 2.8L (LP1) engine share the PCM5 volt reference circuit among several different sensors. Some vehicle familiesinclude the Cadillac CTS/SRX/STS as well as the Buick Lacrosse and Rendezvousto name a few.

The PCM/ECM is not equipped with a DTC for a 5 volt reference problem on theengine families listed above. Therefore, the computer will not set an individual DTCrelated to the 5 volt reference circuit if a short to ground or an open occur in thecircuit. It is likely a low voltage DTC for one of the shared circuits will set a DTCbut the problem may not necessarly be located in that circuit or component. As anexample, it is likely a P0102 MAF DTC could set even though there is no problemwith the sensor or it’s circuit. The P0102 may set simply because it was the 1st

diagnostic to run.

As an example lets look at a Cadiallic STS, 3.6LThe shared 5 volt reference “A” circuit includes the following circuits:

• MAF sensor• IAT sensor• BARO sensor• Engine oil pressure sensor, EOP• APP sensors• A/C pressure sensor• Fuel tank pressure sensor, FTP

The transmission will not upshift when the shift lever is placed in OD range. If theselector is placed in another gear range the transmission may shift but it may nothave all of the shifts desired. As an example, if the shifter is placed in M3 thetransmission may only shift as high as 2nd gear.

Like other GM transmission applications, the pressure switch assembly is a majorinput to the PCM regarding shift patterns. If circuit 1226 pin C becomes shorted toground the voltage on the circuit will remain low all the time. This will be inter-preted by the PCM as M1 range even though the range selector is in OD range.When placed in M3 range the PCM will interpret the range as M2. This type offailure will not set a DTC as the sequence is considered a valid PSA sequence.When monitoring the values with a scan tool you will note that the value remainslow for all ranges selected. By comparing to the chart below, you will see the volt-age should be high when M3 or OD ranges are selected. If you encounter the con-dition disconnect the transmission electrical connector while monitoring the PSAscan values. If circuit C goes to a HI status, the short to ground is located withinthe transmission internal harness or the PSA. If circuit 1226 pin C stays LOW,the short to ground is located between the transmission electrical connector andthe PCM. Repair as necessary.

The “A” body style was introduced in 2005 as the Chevrolet Cobalt, Saturn Ionand Pontiac Pursuit. These applications are equipped with a 4T40E transaxle.The programming for this transmission varies slightly from some of the 4T40Eapplications. The transaxle is programmed to perform as follows:

• The low traction light will illuminate (if the car is equipped with ABS)anytime the transaxle is placed in M1 position

• The transaxle will upshift out of M2 into third at speeds above 40 MPH• The transaxle will upshift out of M1

Some Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac Pursuit applications may experience any or all ofthe following concerns:

• APP DTC P2138 set• Possible DTC’s P0532 (A/C), P1681 (TP/ECM) may be set• Low power message• Poor drivability• Limp home mode• Transmission shift timing complaints• A/C compressor may be inoperative

P2138 will set if:• DTC’s P0641, P0651, P2120, P2125 are not set• APP is above idle position• A voltage correlation condition exists between APP 1 and APP 2 for longer

than 2 secondsP0532 will set if:

• ECM detects A/C pressure less than 34 Kpa (4.93 psi) (less than .25 volts)

P1681 will set if:• A control module throttle position performance issue exists

If the A/C compressor is inoperative the problem is not likely to be repaired byreplacing the APP sensor pedal assembly. If the compressor is inoperative thecause is generally the A/C high pressure switch. The ECM shares the 5 volt refer-ence circuit with the APP and A/C system. Therefore a short to ground in the A/Cpressure switch or its circuit will also pull the APP 5 volt reference circuit low.Inspect the A/C pressure switch circuit and if no problem is found replace the A/Cpressure switch. If an A/C problem does not exist, follow the DTC chart for theP2138 code.

Pontiac Grand Prix, Chevrolet Impala, Monte Carlo, Buick Lacrosse applicationsequipped with the 3.8L may set a P2138 and/or P1125. In addition, the enginemay be operating in the reduced power mode which can lead to transmission shifttiming complaints. On some applications the DIC (Driver Information Center) maydisplay TCS and/or VSES messages to the driver.

If the vehicle sets just a P2761 inspect the transmission harness for signs of dam-age. P2761 is typically set due to an open or short to ground in the TCC PWMcircuit or solenoid. One area that has been common for this type of concern is anopen in circuit 418 (Brown wire). If you remove the internal wiring harness, TPA(Terminal Position Assureance) clip and tug on circuit 418 you will generally seethe terminal is loose and may it even come out of the connector.

On applications that are setting a P0741 it is highly unlikely that an electricalcondition will cause the DTC to set, but it is possible if a high resistance conditionis present. If you are unable to address the concern by inspecting the items highlighted in previous ATRA seminar manuals inspect circuit 418 for the conditiondescribed above.

If circuit 418 is found to be defective replace the terminal or the harness. Har-ness part number 24229643 is available from GM.

Some W car (Monte Carlo, Impala, Grand Prix) applications may exhibit a conditionthat causes the speedometer to fluctuate or drop out intermittently. In addition,the transmission may intermittently change gears in response to the change inVSS value. VSS related DTC’s may or may not be set

The VSS connector/wiring may come into contact with the power steering hose.As the engine moves in it’s mounts the connector may develop an open circuit,resulting in the above condition.

Reposition the power steering hose so it can no longer come into contact with thevehicle speed sensor connector/wiring. Check the condition of the connector, pintension, wiring and repair as necessary.

Owners of 1999-2005 GM vehicles equipped with the 4T65E may complainregarding an aggressive garage shift engagement, especially when the engine iscold.

Starting with the 1999 model year the software was changed to increase idlespeed for the engine to 1100-1300 rpm for the first 30 seconds of engine run time.After the engine run timer has expired the engine speed will drop to approximately650 RPM and the garage shift engagement will be much smoother. The update wasdone to reduce emissions during cold start conditions. This should be considered anormal condition and corrective action should not be attempted.

4T80E transmissions may exhibit one or more of the following concerns:• 3RD gear starts, even though the PCM is commanding the transmission to

start in 1st gear• No 3rd gear, even though the PCM is commanding the transmission to shift

to 3rd gear• No 2nd or 3rd gear even though the PCM is commanding the transmission to

those gears• Incorrect Ratio DTC’s set

Remove the 2-3 shift valve and inspect the bore and valve for signs of wear. Inmost instances the bore starts to score which leads to the shift valve relatedconcerns. To repair the condition, the Lower valve body will require replacement.At this time no one is making service tools to address this issue. Prior toreplacement, contact the various companies to be sure service kits are notavailable to address this concern.

4wd Service Lamp On, DTC C0327SetOne of the most common problems with the NP126/NP136/NP 236/NP 246/NP263 transfer case applications is a loss of 4wd and T- case operation. Inaddition to an inoperative 4wd system the service 4wd lamp may be illuminated.The customer may also comment that the LED’s located in the selector switchesare blinking and they may hear a grinding noise coming from the front axle area.Any combination of DTC’s may/may not be set such as P0452, P0453, P0461,P0462, P0464, P0836, P0500, P1875, U1088, B0790, CO186, C0196, C0300,C0305, C0306, C0321, C0327, C0359, C0374, C0379, C0455, or C0550 whichcan be stored in various modules such as the PCM, TCM, TCCM or BCM. Typicallythe DTC that is most common is a C0327 and it can be accessed bycommunication with the TCCM via a scan tool.

A C0327 will be set if:The TCCM expects to see a valid voltage sequence from the Transfer case encodermotor sensor based on the input it receives from the range selector buttons. TheDTC will set if the value falls outside of the value it expects to see.

If a C0327 sets the TCCM will:• Lock the T case in the position it was in at the time the problem occurred as

the TCCM will no longer command shifts to occur. This condition may leadto a lack of 4wd operation.

• Illuminate the Service 4WD lamp for the remainder of the key cycle

4L65E/60E applications may exhibit a 2-3 shift flare. This condition may bepresent prior to you working on the vehicle or it may develop after you havereplaced hard parts during a rebuild. Some of the items that can cause a flare willalso lead to 3rd clutch damage while others will not cause clutch damage. Some ofthe items listed will also lead to 2-4 band failure as well as 3-4 clutch distress.

Several items may cause this concern including:• Leaking clutch piston seals• Leaking input shaft seal rings• Incorrect clutch clearance• Debris in orifice #7• The sleeve in the pump stator support may have rotated slightly• Leak in the 2-4 band release circuit• Incorrectly assembled 3-4 clutch assembly• Orifice cup plug missing/damage in input housing or the servo bore• Check ball capsule not sealing in input housing• Cracks in the input shaft seal ring area• Damaged/faulty/leaking 3rd accumulator check valve• Leaking check ball located in the end of the input housing• Incorrect pump or pump parts• Damaged/warped case or valve body• Incorrect spacer plate or gaskets• Sticking 2-3 shift valve or damaged/cracked 2-3 shift solenoid• 3-4 clutch feed hole in the input housing may be incorrectly machined.

The chamfer for the hole may be too large which exposes it to the areawhere the seal groove is machined in the housing. This will cause theclutch to leak. This is fairly common on some of the later model applicationsand you should inspect for this condition as part of your rebuild or prior toinstalling a new input housing.

The 6L80 transmission utilizes a very unique process for checking the fluid levels.Most 6L80 applications do not utilize a dipstick. Instead a plug has been placedinto the dipstick hole. The plug can be removed and the hole can be used as a fillpoint for transmission fluid. To check the fluid level the following procedureshould be followed:

• The transmission temperature must be between 86-122 °F (30-50°C) a scantool, the driver information center or the transmission gauge can be used toverify the temperature

• Start the engine and let it idle, Shift the transmission in and out of rangepausing in each range for approximately 3 seconds

• Place the transmission in park range• With the vehicle level, remove the level control plug located in the

transmission oil pan.• If fluid does not drip from the level control hole, add Dexron VI fluid until

fluid starts to drip from the hole. If fluid runs from the hole wait until thefluid stops running from the hole. The level is correct when fluid dripsslightly from the hole. If a steady stream is present or no flow is present thefluid level is incorrect. Install the fill plug and the level control plug.

NOTE: Fluid may be added through the dipstick hole or through the level controlhole.

Solenoid and valve body diagnosis requires the following tools:• A quality scan tool capable of communicating and commanding the TCM and

it’s solenoids.• Tool number J 47825-1 Solenoid test plate and jumper harness

Remove the Control Solenoid Valve Assembly from the transmission. Install toolJ47821-1 onto the Control Solenoid Valve Assembly (5Nm 44 Lb In). Applyregulated shop air (90-100 psi) to the tool. Connect the scan tool to the ControlSolenoid Valve Assembly.

• Command the solenoid ON/OFF air pressure should be present on the gaugeand then it should exhaust as the solenoid is cycled. If the solenoid or valveare malfunctioning the gauge pressure will not change as you cycle thesolenoid. If a malfunction is determined to be present, replace the completeControl Solenoid Valve Assembly.

• If the solenoid checked OK, install the gauge on another solenoid port andcommand that solenoid ON/OFF with the scan to repeat the process.

Adaptive LearningThe 6L80 is fully equipped with several adaptive learning strategies. As with someother GM applications you will need to erase the adaptive values and perform a“Fast Learn” prior to operating the vehicle. Adapts and fast learn proceduresshould be perform if any of the following occur:

• Internal Transmission repairs have been performed• The valve body was replaced• The Control Solenoid valve assembly was replaced• The TCM was recalibrated• Internal repairs were performed that could effect shift quality

NOTE: Fast learn is not required if a GM New or Rebuilt 6L80 is used. Thetransmission is fast learn prior to it being shipped from the plant

To perform a fast learn:• Use a scan tool capable of performing the fast learn procedure• TFT 158-230°F (70-110°C)• Select Fast learn process from the scan tool menu• Place the transmission in Drive with the vehicle stationary. The TCM will

individually apply the clutches and calculate the clutch volume• Place the transmission in Reverse with the vehicle stationary. The TCM will

individually apply the clutches and calculate the clutch volume• Shut off the engine, power off the scanner• The process is now complete

The fast learn procedure will not run if:• DTC’s are set• TFT is not between 158-230 °F (70-110°C)• The brake switch is not working• TP is 0% but engine RPM increases during the test• P/N switch is improperly adjusted or is not functioning correctly• Line pressure control system is malfunting

Duramax Diesel applications may develop a misfire, surge or chuggle related con-cern that is difficult to diagnose and repair using current techniques and proce-dures. The complaint is sometimes misdiagnosed as being transmission related.

6.6L Duramax applications have experienced problems with coolant getting intothe ECM and/or the ECM connector. The coolant wicks up the surge tank coolantlevel sensor and into the wiring. If other attempts to repair the concern have beenunsuccessful, remove the ECM connector and inspect the connector and the ECMpins for evidence of corrosion or Dexcool contamination. If contamination is foundthe ECM may need to be replaced if there is evidence of any corrosion or damage. Ifonly light residue is found you can generally clean the connector and ECM pinswith electric circuit board cleaner. If coolant contamination is found, the wire andthe coolant switch must be replaced. Make sure to replace the wire and the termi-nals.

LCT 1000 6 Speed(RPO MW7) Updates (continued)

Tap Shifts (Range Selection Mode)Like several other GM applications, the MW7 features tap shifts are standardequipment. Unlike other applications the tap shift function is controlled by athumb activated switch mounted on the gear shift lever. The range selectionfeature will hold the vehicle in the gear selected unless the driver commands agear change or the TCM determines that engine damage may occur andcommands a shift to occur. To activate the tap shift feature the shift selector levermust be in the M position.

Tow/Haul/Grade BrakingAs with other GM applications, the tow haul feature is activated by a buttonlocated in the end of the shift lever. Tow/Haul should be selected anytime thevehicle load exceeds 75% of the GCWR for the application. Tow/Haul modechanges the shift points of the transmission to reduce shift cycling and improvevehicle performance. Tow/Haul mode also changes the TCC apply, which enablesTCC in 2nd and 3rd gears as well as commands TCC to stay applied duringdeceleration. This prevents heat build up due to oil shear within the converter.In addition spark timing is retarded more during the shifts to lower the impact ofthe shift. The Grade braking feature or the cruise grade braking feature can onlybe activated if the tow haul feature is active and the shift lever is not in the Mposition. Grade braking can command downshifts to ranges as low as 2nd gear.

Heater Performance ModeIn the diesel applications the heater performance mode is designed to shorten thelength of time it takes for the engine/transmission to reach operatingtemperature. This algorithm improves heater performance by decreasing thewarm up time. The PCM/TCM monitors ambient temperatures and when thevehicle is being operated in cold weather the TCM will raise the 2-3,3-4,4-5 and 5-6 shift points to increase engine speed resulting in quicker warm up.

Low Traction ModeDiesel power applications are equipped with a Low Traction Algorithm to improvetraction during slippery conditions. By selecting a manual range while at a stopthe TCM will command the transmission to start and stay in 2nd gear

GENERAL MOTORS92

LCT 1000 6 Speed

Shift StabilizationLike other GM applications, the shift stabilization algorithm monitors VSS andload inputs to minimize upshift/downshift cycling. If the current speed cannot bemaintained in a higher range, the TCM will command the transmission to holdthe gear and the PCM will lower the engine torque output.

Cold OperationWhen operating in cold temperatures the TCM will prevent specific operations toprevent damage to the transmission. When the cold mode is active the DIC willdisplay the message “Trans in Warm Up”. The modes of operation are as follows:

• -13f or above transmission temp, transmission operates normally• -13 to -31f transmission temp, 2nd and 3rd gears available only• -31f or below transmission temp, 2nd gear available only

On diesel powered applications TCC will be inhibited based on both transmissionand ambient air temperatures. The modes of operation are as follows:

• IAT below 32f, TCC will not apply until Transmission temperature is above88F

• IAT 32-50f, TCC will not apply until Transmission temperature is between50-80f

• IAT above 50f, TCC operates normallyGas Applications:

• Transmission temperature below 68f, TCC inhibited

Torqshift

2004 — 2005 E-450 series and especially the commercial chassis applications likeambulances. The concern begins with intermittent transmission issues like shiftscheduling, slipping, bangs on downshifts, etc. As the concern progresses, it flagsa DTC P0960 / PCA Open Circuit and illuminates the MIL. The root cause of theconcern can be traced to the main connector (C-195) laying across the top of thetrans.

If you remove the engine cover (doghouse) which is no easy task, pull apart theconnector and look for overheated or burned wires. If this is what you find, look atthe inside of the engine cover. You’ll see where the connector has been rubbing.Depending on the connector and wiring damage, repair as necessary taking stepsto ensure that the connector doesn’t rub again. Reset the KAM (Keep aliveMemory), perform the Adaptive Learning procedure and test drive.

TorqshiftIntroduction

The Torqshift transmission is a 6 speed fully computer-controlled transmission.Externally it looks like it’s cousin the E4OD and internally the stack up is muchthe same, however there are no parts that interchange between the two units. alsothe TR sensor is internal and the solenoid connector is up front rather then in therear. There have been several changes made to the planetary gear sets for in-creased durability in the 2005 version. The PCM has gone through several updatesto the programming and it is highly recommended that the computer be repro-grammed with every transmission rebuild.

TorqshiftTR-P Sensor Introduction

The Transmission Range (TR-P) sensor assembly is an internally mounted sensorthat includes the detent spring, rooster comb and bracket, located next to thesolenoid body. The components of the TR-P sensor are factory adjusted and thesensor must be installed as a calibrated assembly. The TR-P sensor containselectronic circuitry that provides the PCM a fixed frequency at a duty cycle foreach of the various positions of the manual lever (PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL,DRIVE, M3, M2 and M1) to the PCM. The PCM uses the TR-P sensor signal forengine functions (start, reverse lamps) and for line pressure control, shiftscheduling and TCC operation.

FORD114

TorqshiftTR-P Sensor Diagnosis

There are only two reasons you’d be diagnosing the TR-P sensor:

1. Codes2. No Start

Codes are caused by the TR-P Frequency being out of range or circuit duty cyclebeing too low or too high, which can also cause a no start condition, or during theKOEO test the shifter was not in the Park or Neutral position.

Using your scan tool enter the Diagnostic mode function. Enter TR_DC andTR_FREQ. Once this is entered you will be able to see the following information:

Position Min % Duty Cycle Max % Duty Cycle

P 7.13 23.76

R 23.77 38.48

N 38.47 48.55

D 48.56 58.82

3 58.83 68.08

2 68.09 77.96

Torqshift with PTO

2005 Super Duty F-Series vehicles equipped with a 6.0L diesel engine, TorqShifttransmission and power take off (PTO) option, built before September 22, 2004,will exhibit insufficient transmission line pressure supplied during PTO operation.

Symptoms include lack of torque converter lock up and transmission line pressurebelow 150 psi while in stationary PTO mode. PTO operation under this conditionmay result in PTO unit damage, and subsequent TorqShift transmission damageis possible.

Reprograming the powertrain control module (PCM) and transmission controlmodule (TCM) to the latest calibration using release B33.6 or higher. Calibrationfiles can be obtained at www.motorcraft.com. If transmission damage occurs dueto improper PTO function, follow normal procedures to diagnose and repair. Cleardiagnostic trouble codes if any, and verify the repair.

PTOOperation and Diagnosis

Ford Super Duty F-Series Truck Powertrains are designed principally to providevehicle motivation and short term auxiliary power needs. Power activation of hy-draulic or mechanically driven devices such as wrecker lift, snowplow blade liftand movement, power tailgate lift, or dump body lift, are a few examples. Thevariety of available air circulation, temperature environment, vehicle maintenancelevel, and other conditions existing with the range of auxiliary horsepower andtorque demands that may be placed upon a vehicle in PTO usage, make it difficultto assess the ultimate performance of a vehicle subjected to extended durationusage as an auxiliary power source. The guidelines in this book are intended toassist the PTO equipment installer in avoiding inadvertent vehicle performanceand safety concerns. These guidelines should not be considered all inclusive, andit is the responsibility of the PTO equipment installer, to choose and install a PTOsystem that the vehicle operators will be able to use in a safe manner with thenecessary precautions to ensure safe operation and customer satisfaction.

WARNING:Do not subject the Excursion to any auxiliary power take-offapplication as this could overheat the fuel tank and increase therisk of personal injury.

Auxiliary Idle ControlThe Ford 7.3L diesel engine has two Auxiliary Idle Control kits are available toelevate the engine idle speed. The kit offered as Regular Production Option Code96P forF-Series (option Code 961 for E-Series) contains a “full function” AuxiliaryPowertrain Control Module or APCM. A “limited function” APCM is included in thekit that is part of the Ambulance Prep Option. For gas engines, the PTO installerwill need to obtain high idle throttle control from an aftermarket source.

Elevated Idle FeatureFor 7.3L diesel engine and 4R100 with PTO provision only. Activating the “PTOCircuit” will automatically elevate the engine idle to 1200 rpm in “PARK” or “NEU-TRAL” regardless of the parking brake being set. This feature does not require useof the Auxiliary Idle Control option or the APCM.

General Guidelines / Warnings1. Additional transmission lubricant may be required with addition of the PTO.

2. Follow severe-duty vehicle maintenance schedules, including transmission fluidchanges.

3. Route PTO hydraulic lines away from the vehicle exhaust system.

4. Diesel engines are recommended for stationary PTO operation of extended dura-tion.

5. Do not block air flow circulation to the engine coolant radiator, engine andtransmission.

6. Monitoring the following powertrain fluid temperatures to avoid excessive heatbuild up.

NOTE - If any of the above temperatures are exceeded, disengagethe PTO operation and return vehicle engine speed to normalidle. Allow the temperature to stabilize at a lower level before re-engaging the PTO.

7. The M60D manual transmission case will require a slight modification to pack-age PTO pumps that are mounted directly to the PTO and facing rearward.Refer to Figure 1 for instructions on removing a small tab on the case to obtainclearance for the pump.

PTOOperation and Diagnosis(continued)4R100 TransmissionThe 4R100 with a PTO port must be ordered as a separate option. Option Code62R is available for SD FSeries only. It includes a PTO drive gear and in the caseof gas engines, has a unique electronic engine control module (EEC) that the non-PTO 4R100 does not have. The PTO port is a non-standard, 6-bolt hole pattern,threaded for M10 metric fasteners, and comes with a reusable controlled compres-sion gasket to control gear mesh installation. The PTO drive gear is functional inall gear ranges: D1, D2, Drive, Reverse, Park, Neutral (except Overdrive). Thisaccommodates both stationary and mobile PTO operation. However, the PTO drivegear is NOT functional in any drive gear when vehicle speed is zero. The Overdrive-Cancel light is designed to illuminate when operating in PTO mode.

1. The PTO drive gear is rated at 170 lb-ft torque peak, 120 lb-ft torque continu-ous use.

2. Automatic transmission PTO applications intended for stationary operationmust comply with the following engine rpm limitations: – Reference PTOmanufacturer’s owners manual for recommended PTO pump operating speeds.(1) High idle throttle control required. (Electronic Throttle Kicker) and not providedby Ford. (2) Automatically controlled by the PCM.

3. The 4R100 line pressure tap thread is 1/8-27 Dryseal N.P.S.F. normal linepressure is approximately 50 to 60 psi at normal engine idle; and approximately180 psi at 1200 rpm with torque converter clutch applied and PTO circuit acti-vated.

4. If the vehicle battery has been disconnected, the powertrain control strategymay “forget” PTP logic and may not respond to commands for elevated idle. Toremedy this, a sensor in the transmission needs to count the teeth on the PTOgear.

PTOOperation and Diagnosis(continued)5. Simply drive the vehicle a short distance. Typically, less than a mile will besufficient to prepare the strategy to respond properly. Driving the automatic trans-mission in 1st gear may also speed up this memory. Do not rush to drive, but alsoavoid excessive delay. Once the ignition goes through the ON, CRANK and STARTcycle the strategy cycle that looks for “PTO” only lasts a relatively shorttime. Repeat the cycle if the first drive attempt is ineffective.

6. A temperature monitor internal to the 4R100 is designed to disengage the PTOdrive gear clutch in an over-temperature condition. High torque demand at lowvehicle speed can trigger this safeguard. Spreading fertilizer in farming orsnowplowing are typical examples. If this occurs, disengage the PTO operation andrest the vehicle in Park or Neutral at normal engine idle to cool thepowertrain.

7. New for 2002 model year Super Duty F-Series, and placed in the instrumentcluster, is a Transmission Fluid Temperature Gauge for automatic transmissiononly. A complete description is located in the Owner Guide.

Here in brief explains what the needle readings mean.Cold Range: 50° F or colder.

White Area [“Normal”]: Normal operating range,51 to 248° F.

Yellow Area [“Warning”]: Stop driving the vehicle or remove auxiliary loads at theearliest convenience. Typically, leave the engine running at normal idle will aidcooldown. Allow to cool into the normal range before starting to drive again oroperate the PTO. The transmission fluid is not overheating, but operating in theYellow Range for extended periods of time may cause internal transmission dam-age.

Red Area [“Over-Temperature”]: The transmission fluid is over-heating. Stop thevehicle, do not drive, and allow to cool into normal range.

F-1 One-Way ClutchThe F1 one way clutch locks the counterclockwise rotation of the rear planetarycarrier during 1st gear operation (during both normal operation and engine brak-ing).

Hydraulic SystemsValve BodyThe valve body supplies fluid by switching the fluid circuit for the hydraulic pres-sure that is generated by the fluid pump. Based on the hydraulic pressure gener-ated by the fluid pump the TCM sends control signals to the solenoid valves inaccordance with vehicle conditions. Upon activation of the solenoid valve, thecontrol hydraulic pressure to the clutch and brakes is determined (according tothe equilibrium with the obtained hydraulic pressure) and gear shift and lockupare accomplished. In addition, an appropriate amount of fluid is supplied to thetorque converter, planetary gears and lubricating parts.

Automatic Gearshift ControlIn automatic gearshift control, based on each gearshift pattern, SSA and SSB turnON or OFF and SSC, SSD, SSE and SSF are operated linearly according to infor-mation that includes vehicle speed, the degree to which the accelerator is openand brake signal.

Driver Adaptive Shift ControlThis automatic transaxle does not have a driving mode selection switch that al-lows drivers to select a mode themselves. The vehicle is ordinarily in adaptivemode. However, when specific conditions are met, the transmission control unit(TCU) selects a shifting pattern appropriate to driving conditions from all of theshifting patterns and switches automatically.

Green — Mode 1 — Switched from mode 2 to warm up the transmission fluid.This mode acts to protect the transaxle before the adaptive mode.

Green — Mode 2 — After engine start-up, warm-up speed is increased for a cer-tain period when transmission fluid temperature is low and the vehicle speed is 0.

High Temp — When fluid temperature becomes too high, this mode activateslock-up at an earlier timing to stop the temperature rise and lower the tempera-ture.

Down Slope — When driving down a slope, the transmission control module(TCM) detects a down slope based on the engine control unit signal and outputrpm. TCM switches to down slope mode to alleviate the load to the brake by downshifting.

FORD 145

Gear Shift ControlWhen the shift lever is moved from N to D or from N to R, after the engine isstarted, a shift control solenoid assembly (SSC, SSD, SSE) is used for the fluidpressure required by C1 clutch or C3 clutch and appropriately regulated fluidpressure is supplied to the clutch, engaging smoothly without shock.

Reverse Converter ControlIf the shift lever is moved from N to R while the vehicle is moving forward and thetransaxle shifts into REVERSE, the wheels will be locked, which is extremelydangerous. In order to avoid this, the TCM inhibits the transaxle from shifting intoREVERSE while moving forward.

Torque Converter ControlBased on output rpm signals, signals from the engine control unit (engine rpmand throttle opening) and vehicle speed, a smooth engagement is carried outthrough linear control of the torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoid. Also, the sliprate is detected by adding input rpm signals and slip control is carried out.

Engagement ControlControl is carried out using a TCC solenoid. The TCC solenoid is linearly turnedON and OFF. The clutch inside the torque converter is operated and the pumpimpeller and turbine runner are connected. Through this the engine and thetransaxle are coupled and engine output is connected directly to the transaxle,eliminating transaxle loss and enhancing fuel economy

Slip ControlControl is carried out using a TCC solenoid. The TCC solenoid is linearly turnedON and OFF and the clutch within the torque converter is operated outside of theengagement range. The clutch slides without being in a completely coupled condi-tion, increasing transaxle efficiency and enhancing fuel economy.

The transmission control module (TCM) and its input/output network controls thefollowing operations:1. Shift timing2. Line pressure (shift feel)3. Torque converter clutch (TCC)The transaxle control is separate from the engine control strategy in thepowertrain control module (PCM), although some of the input signals are sharedbetween the TCM and PCM. When determining the best operating strategy fortransaxle operation, the TCM uses input information from certain engine-relatedand driver-demand related sensors and switches supplied by the PCM.In addition, the TCM receives input signals from certain transaxle-related sensorsand switches. The TCM also uses these signals when determining transaxle oper-ating strategy.

Using all of these input signals, the TCM can determine when the time and condi-tions are right for a shift, or when to apply or release the torque converter clutch.It will also determine the best line pressure needed to optimize shift feel. To ac-complish this the TCM uses output solenoids to control transaxle operation.The following provides a brief description of each of the sensors and actuatorsused to control transaxle operation.

Transmission Control Module (TCM) Control FunctionIn automatic gear shift control, based on each gear shift pattern, SAA and SBBturn ON or OFF and SSC, SSD, SSE and SSF are operated linearly according toinformation that includes vehicle speed, the degree to which the accelerator isopen and brake signals. For the gear and solenoid operation chart, refer to thegeneral specification tables in this section.

The transmission range (TR) sensor is built in the transmission control module(TCM), it detects the automatic transmission range information via the Hall-effectsensor and outputs the information to the TCM. The TCM reads the voltage andadjusts the automatic transmission range.

Brake Pedal Position (BPP) SwitchThe brake pedal position (BPP) switch tells the powertrain control module whenthe brakes are applied. The torque converter clutch disengages when the brakesare applied and the BPP switch closes when the brakes are applied and openswhen they are released

Adaptive Shift ControlThe TCM has an adaptive learning strategy to electronically control the transaxlewhich will automatically adjust the shift feel. The first few hundred miles of opera-tion of the transaxle may have abrupt shifting. This is a normal operation. If thebattery has been disconnected for any reason it will need to be kept disconnectedfor approximately 20 minutes to reset the adaptive shift pressure strategy or usethe diagnostic tool to carry out the keep alive memory (KAM) reset.

AF21-B

Driver Adaptive Shift ControlThis automatic transaxle does not have a driving mode selection switch that al-lows drivers to select a mode themselves. The vehicle is ordinarily in adaptivemode. However, when specific conditions are met, the transmission control unit(TCU) selects a shifting pattern appropriate to driving conditions from all of theshifting patterns and switches automatically.

GREEN — Mode 1 — Switched from mode 2 to warm up the transmission fluid.This mode acts to protect the transaxle before the adaptive mode.

GREEN — Mode 2 — After engine start-up, warm-up speed is increased for acertain period when transmission fluid temperature is low and the vehicle speed is0.

HIGH TEMP — When fluid temperature becomes too high, this mode activateslock-up at an earlier timing to stop the temperature rise and lower the tempera-ture.

DOWN SLOPE — When driving down a slope, the transmission control module(TCM) detects a down slope based on the engine control unit signal and outputrpm. TCM switches to down slope mode to alleviate the load to the brake by downshifting.

Electronically controlled transmissions and their functions can be broken downinto three (3) areas of control. Understanding these areas will greatly reduce diag-nostic time and prevent premature failures when repairing these units. Theseareas are:

· The mechanical portion - Mechanical components allow the transfer oftorque through gears, clutches, and rotating shafts.· The hydraulic portion – Hydraulic fluid supplies the necessary pressure tomove a piston or valve in the transmission to link the electric portion to the me-chanical portion.· The electrical/electronic portion – The electrical/electronic portion pro-vides the means to give a full and direct control of the clutches. The use of elec-tronics optimizes the shift quality, fuel economy, adaptation for conditions, anddriver preference.

Understanding these three areas completely will give the technician confidencewhen faced with diagnostics – rebuilding – repairs that they are faced with day byday.

In 2003, the pump design changed to improved performance and fuel economy.The design of this pump helps to prevent loss of prime, which can delayengagement and cause a rough 4-3 downshift. Codes associated with pumpproblems can include P0841 (L/R pressure switch) or P0944 (loss of prime). If afault occurs in Reverse only, there will be no code set. Previous design pumps hada tilted gear pocket for the pump gears. The Dual Cyclodial pump has a squaredesign gear pocket to prevent drain back issues that were associated with the earlydesign pump. If the torque converter fails, this new pump can be easily damaged.

Early pumps had a tilted pocket that was machined with a difference of 55 micronsair gap across the face of the pump gears and pump face, allowing the torqueconverter to drain. This machining issue resulted in air, rather than fluid, beingdrawn into the pump causing the loss of prime condition to occur. The cressentand gears on the Dual Cyclodial pump are narrower than the first design pump.

CHRYSLER178

How the system works:The Variable Line Pressure (VLP) feature requires changes to the 42RLE trans-mission control system. This feature uses the basic 45RFE line pressure controllogic with modifications to accommodate the hardware differences. The 42RLEtransmission with the VLP feature has a line pressure sensor to monitor theactual line pressure and a Variable Force Solenoid (VFS to control the line pres-sure).The basic control strategy “reduces” line pressure during in-gear conditions tolower transmission oil pump load and other parasitic losses, and it, thereby, im-proves fuel economy. During shifts, the line pressure is raised to a programmedlevel to provide good hydraulic response and consistent shift quality; this alsoallows shifts to be made at higher input torques than were possible with fixed linepressure.

42RLE

1: Line pressure targets are added to support different shifts, ensure adequatetorque capacities of the clutches (both the element clutches and the torque con-verter clutch), and ensure adequate lubrication of the transmission.

i. Line pressure targets for shifts: The pressure targets are adapted fromthe line pressure values used in the current 41TE/42RLEtransmissions. This allows keeping most of the previous calibrationsfor the transmissions with the VLP feature.

ii. Line pressure target in-gear: The drive gear pressure target is basedon the clutch torque required to carry the input torque. The pressuretarget in Neutral is balanced between the fuel economy and thetransmission lubrication.

iii. Line pressure target upper limits: the upper limits for the linepressure target are adapted from the fixed line pressure values used inthe 41TE/42RLE transmissions.

iv. Line pressure target lower limit: The lower limits for the line pressuretarget are established to provide the desired torque capacity of theclutches and adequate lubrication for the transmission.

The following changes are being added to Module Strategy.

Updates (continued)Variable Line Pressure Operation

Page 178: 2006 ATRA Seminar Manual

CHRYSLER 179

2: A closed-loop line pressure control algorithm is added: The algorithm comparesthe actual pressure with the target pressure and controls the actual pressure tothe desired value. In order to maintain drivability with the faulty pressure sensor,an open-loop control algorithm is also implemented.

3: A clutch-slip correction and line pressure adjustment algorithm is added.When either an element clutch or the torque converter clutch slips unexpectedly,the VLP feature raises the closed-loop control target pressure to its upper limittemporarily to stop the slip and then adjusts the line pressure target calculationto prevent future slip. In the event of a faulty line pressure sensor where open-loop control is activated, this feature adjusts the open-loop VFS duty cyclecalculation to correct and prevent future slip.

4: New and revised control logic is added to adapt the existing logic to variableline pressure.

5: A VLP enable bit is added to allow selection of VLP feature on an engineapplication basis.

6: Failsafe logic is added to detect a VLP system failure, activate alternative controlstrategies to maintain drivability, prevent possible further damage to thehardware, and provide diagnostic information about the fault.

7: Torque Management logic is added to ensure stable torque converter CC-Onoperation with throttle tip-ins. Throttle tip-ins during Torque converter CC-Onoperation could cause unexpected torque converter slip until the converter clutchpressure stabilizes.

8: Desired line pressures are being modified to improve the clutch capacities forcertain shifts and in-gear conditions, to improve shift consistency, or toaccommodate recent lab test results. Some logic is modified to improve reliability.

For reasons of fuel economy, driveability, and customer satisfaction, the HB, WK,and DR line of vehicles with 4.7L and 5.7L 545RFE Tow/Haul was added. Thesefeatures include:

• Provides a replacement to the OD off feature• Enables the vehicle to up-shift to 4th gear under certain conditions to provide

NVH and fuel economy benefits• Delays up-shifts to avoid shift “hunting” while towing• Automatic downshifts during grade descent provide engine braking

On past vehicles, when the OD OFF was activated the transmission would not shiftinto overdrive. The OD OFF switch is now the Tow/Haul switch and uses adifferent strategy for operation. Unlike the OD OFF switch, the Tow/Haul switchallows the RFE transmission to operate in 4th gear when certain conditions aremet. When activated, the transmission upshifts are delayed and the instrumentpanel indicator is illuminated to notify the driver. Also, when the Tow/Haul featureis active the vehicle can shift back into third gear for engine braking automatically.This occurs when the Tow/Haul logic detects a closed throttle and a vehicle speedincrease of 5 mph, or if the brake is applied for more than 2 ¼ seconds. Vehiclesother than the WK, HB, and DR will retain the OD OFF function.

In 2005 a new valve body was released with a revised separator plate to improvereverse shift quality. The R1 (reverse orifice) is now smaller to improve reverseshift quality which eliminated a bump feel going into reverse. This new valve bodyis “not backwards compatible” to 2004 model year. Torque management wasadded in the transmission software to accommodate the smaller orifice and thereat this time is no reflash to compensate for the changes. NOT Interchangeable.

A running change to the oil pump valve body involved the installation of the C2check valve. The spring loaded check valve is threaded into the pump valve bodyhousing. The purpose of this new valve is to prevent converter drainback. Castingchanges happened before the valve was introduced so not all castings that havethe open passage will have the C2 valve installed. This pump body will NOT inter-change with earlier models.

In 2005 the 4C clutch piston was changed to improve a higher torque capacity.The 4C piston has been modified in 2005 from the aluminum casting design to astamped steel piston with bonded lip seal. This piston is not “backward” compat-ible because of a recess in the 2C/4C clutch retainer that will not allow full travelof the piston. If the 2C/4C retainer, as an assembly, is replaced than the use ofthis new design piston can be back serviced.

For reasons of higher torque capacity the L/R piston and Belleville spring are bothnew for the 2005 model year. The L/R piston is now stamped steel with bondedrubber lip seals. The Belleville spring is also unique. The diameter of the spring islarger and the fingers are longer than original early designed return spring. As anassembly this new piston is backward serviceable as long as the correct returnspring is used. Parts can not be mixed when changing designs.

The WK model has a newly designed shifter assembly (same as used in the NAG1applications). This new Electronic Range Select (ERS) shifter allows the driver toselect the desired top gear range providing more control. The WK offers two differ-ent powertrain packages: NAG1 in 3.7L applications and the 545RFE behind the4.7L and 5.7L engines. To provide a common feel, the shifters share a commonbase assembly. Since there are different strategies used to control these transmis-sions, some of the components inside the shifter assembly are different.

Beginning in 2005 there were changes made in the 48RE applications. Thesechanges included:

• A new case with two extra bosses to except a Throttle Actuator Motor (DieselApplications)

• Software changes in the Tow/Haul Strategy

The transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) is a new motor/actuator that ismounted to the side of the transmission case and used to drive the throttle shaft.This component eliminates the previous under hood actuator and linkage. TheTransmission case had 2 bosses added to the side for the actuator to mount to.The detent feel was removed from the valve body and the throttle shaft was made 2mm longer. The change was required for Diesel applications only. The V10 trans-mission will not have the actuator.The new transmission will not service past designs.The TTVA has a six pin connector, that supplies 12 volts to drive a motor from theCummins engine controller and uses 2 feedback potentiometers to report positionback to the controller to identify the correct position.The TTVA consists of an electric DC motor, tow potentiometers, and a gear drivesystem. The TTVA is mechanically connected to the transmission throttle valve inthe valve body by the “D” shaped o pening n the pottom of the TTVA shaft.Changes in the TTVA position are therefore transferred to the throttle valve andcause changes in the transmission throttle pressure. All changes in the throttlevalve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM)

The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanicaladjustments. All changes in throttle valve position are controlled by the EngineControl Module (ECM). The TTVA does require an initialization period after theactuator has been removed or replaced. After the actuator has been removed orreplaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30) seconds. This willallow the ECM sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures tolearn the TTVA’s current “zero” position. Once this is done, check the ECM fordiagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). If no DTCs are set relating to the TTVA, the TTVAis fully calibrated and ready for use.

The motor circuit reverses polarity to drive the transmission throttle TTVA) shaft toeither the full (TTV) shaft position or the closed TTV shaft position. The TTVA con-nector pin 5 is the Pulse Width Modulated side of the motor circuit. The motorcircuit is completed through Pin 3. Most of the time, circuit polarity causes theactuator motor to either move the TTV shaft to full throttle position or hold theTTV shaft in the closed throttle position against spring tension. To do this, Pin 3 isgrounded and Pin 5 is powered. To reverse the motor and rapidly change the posi-tion of the TTV shaft, the circuit reverses polarity. Pin 3 supplies 12V and Pin 5supplies ground.

Two potentiometers are built into the TTVA body and provide two tranmissionthrottle valve shaft position signals to the PCM. Two sensors are used for failsaferedundecy and error checking. The sensors output analog signals to inform thePCM that the TTV shaft moves as expected.

Two three-wire potentiometer sensors are used. The sensors use a common 5Vreference and sensor return. Each sensor ouputs and analog signal in proportionto TTV shaft position, but one sensor uses reverse logic. As the TTV shaft rotatesto full throttle, the signal voltage from potentiometer #1 increases, and the signalvoltage from potentiometer #2 decreases. The sum of the two potentiometer signalvoltages should always qual approximatly 5V. the PCM monitors this value tocheck the system integrity.

DiagnosticsFirst Approach

Get a description of the symptoms from the customer. Ask when the symptomsoccur (cold, first startup in the morning, after the vehicle is driven for a while andwarmed up, etc).1. Road test vehicle and note any symptoms and when they occur (cold, hot,

long drive, etc.)

2. Note any howling or gear whine noises.

3. Put vehicle up on a lift. Check axles and seals and note if there are signs ofleakage and/or excessive radial axle movement.

4. Drain fluid through a paint strainer into a clean container.Dark or black fluid indicate possible clutch failure.

5. Note the amount and type of metal debris on the drain plug magnet Fineblack metal is normal. Shiny, flaky metal particles are a red flag for hardparts failure.

Note: New solenoids are expensive and can be ruined if they areinstalled and run on a contaminated unit. It is recommendedthat you carefully check for signs of contamination or internalfailure before replacing solenoids.

Beware of vehicles that have had a “miracle service”, or have been flushed andhad the fluid changed before they came to your shop. Evidence of contaminationand internal failure may have been temporarily removed.

Some 1998 year model 4 cylinder Accords and 2.3CLs had a problem with thetransaxle side cover casting. A selective collar was fitted behind the control leveron the control shaft to repair the affected vehicles.

It is important to note the installation of this collar whenever the transaxle isremoved or transaxle service work is performed and make sure the collar isreinstalled correctly.

If you are replacing the transaxle side cover, or the selective collar has been lost,use the following page to identify the side cover and/or order the correct selectivecollar.

Identifying the Side CoverAffected 1998 side covers can be identified by the casting date code on the sidecover. The date code can be cast in any position (upside down, sideways, etc.) solook carefully at the numbers to determine which way is up. The affected castingdate codes are 10/19 thru 11/18. These will require the installation of the selectivecontrol shaft collar.

Cause:It is normal to have delayed 1-2 and 2-3 upshifts immediately after a cold enginestartup. The PCM is programmed to shift at higher engine RPM when the engine iscold in order to help warm up the catalytic converter and reduce exhaustemissions.

A No command for 4th gear or TCC, no detent downshifts above 30 mph. The causeof this may be a Knock Sensor

A Knock Sensor DTC may be present (P0330). Whenever a knock sensor DTC isset 4th gear and TCC are inhibited and engine management goes into reducedpower strategy and detent downshift timing is affected. It is common for theknock sensors themselves to fail.

To repair the concern replace the knock sensor.

Notes: If knock sensor DTC is cleared normal shifting andoperation will be restored until PCM performs knock sensor testroutine and DTC is set again. There are two PID’s in scan data:OD CUT1 and OD CUT2. OD CUT1 responds to OD cancel switch(switches from YES to NO). OD CUT2 indicates PCM OD inhibitstrategy.

Adaptive learn

Whenever an automatic transmission is replaced, overhauled or indivdual compo-nents are replaced, use this procedure to erase the Engine Control Module (ECM,SAE term: Powertrain Control Module, PCM)”Learned Values” and minimize subse-quent performance concerns.

Caution:Failure to follow the following procedures may lengthen the timeto readjust the “Learned Values”, potentially resulting inperformance concerns.

1999-2003 ES 300 and RX 3002003-2005 GX 4702004-2005 RX 330

Procedure 1

1. Connect the Lexus Diagnostic Tester to the vehicle.2. Reset the ECM (PCM). Refer to the procedures below.

3. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature4. Perform a thorough test drive with several accelerations from a stop with “light throttle” application until proper tranmission shifting is verified.

MERCEDES 297

722.6/NAG 1Transmission Ranges and Operation(continued)Daimler-Chrysler has many different shifter part numbers but there are only twobasic types that a driver would notice. One is a common shifter like all other carsand the second one is the “Touch” shifter as shown. When the shifter is in the Drange the shifter will also move side to side. If you push the shifter handle side-ways toward the driver, or to the Minus sign, ( - ) for a moment the transmissionwill down shift to the next lowest range. If you push the shifter side ways awayfrom the driver, or to the Plus sign, ( + ) it will up shift to the next highest gear.The shifter can be used this way for sporty manual shifting. If you want it to goback to full automatic shifting, push the shifter sideways away from the driver andhold it for at least one second.

On most Daimler-Chrysler vehicles the Transmission Control Module will not letthe engine RPM exceed a safe operating speed so it may up shift to a higher gearthan the driver has selected. Also it may prevent or delay a down shift that hasbeen requested by the driver if a safe engine RPM will be exceeded.

The shifter shown on the opposite page has a Standard Mode/Winter Mode switch.(Not all shifters will have a mode switch). In the Standard Mode all shifts will benormal. The Winter Mode is for better traction on slippery roads in both forwardand reverse, it will take off in second gear and will shift earlier. It will also take offin a higher ratio reverse than in the Standard Mode.

722.6/NAG 1Solenoid Operation

Solenoid OverviewThe Mercedes 722.6 transmission uses six solenoids on the valve body to controltransmission operation; three shift solenoids, a converter clutch solenoid, a pres-sure control solenoid, and a shift pressure control solenoid. Mercedes uses termsfor their solenoids that may not relate to an obvious function. The three shiftsolenoids: the 1-2/4-5 shift, 2-3 shift, and 3-4 shift solenoids are obvious. How-ever, the lock up solenoid is referred to as a PWM solenoid, the pressure controlsolenoid is referred to as the modulating pressure regulator solenoid. The shiftpressure control solenoid is somewhat unique and we’ll cover its function later.

Solenoid OperationThe modulating pressure regulating solenoid controls line rise by raising pres-sure to the spring side of the pressure regulator. This is a standard function likemost all computer-controlled transmissions. It also controls oil to three othervalves.

The PWM solenoid is also a fairly standard solenoid in that it controls converterclutch operation.

Where the Mercedes transmission is radically different in solenoid operation iswith the shift solenoids. Because each shift releases one clutch while applyinganother, timing is very important so you don’t get a flare or bind-up during theshift “transition”. Each shift solenoid uses a bank of four valves to control the shifttransitions. These valves are called:

1. Command Valve2. Holding Pressure Shift Valve3. Shift Pressure Shift Valve4. Pressure Overlap Control Valve

Page 287: 2006 ATRA Seminar Manual

© 2006 ATRA, All Rights Reserved

MERCEDES300

Keep in mind that each shift solenoid uses four of these valves, so in total thereare 12 valves that control all of the shift transitions.

The basic operation of these four valves is the same for each shift. To initiate ashift transition the computer turns on one of the shift solenoids. For example, fora 1-2 shift the computer turns on the 1-2/4-5 shift solenoid. This strokes thecommand valve and initiates a shift “transition”. The other three valve control therelease rate of the B1 brake and the apply rate of the K1 clutch. Once the transi-tion is complete, the 1-2/4-5 shift solenoid is turned off. To make a 2-1 down shiftthe computer again turns on the 1-2/4-5 shift solenoid to initiate a transition. Inthis case, since the transmission is in second gear the transmission transitionsback to first gear.For a shift from second to third the 2-3 shift solenoid is energized to initiate thetransition. And just like to 1-2 shift, once the transition is complete the solenoidis turned off. For a 3-2 downshift, the 2-3 shift solenoid goes through this cycleagain. Each shift works in this fashion.During each transition apply pressure is controlled by the shifting pressure con-trol solenoid. The release rate is controlled, in part, by the modulating pressureregulator solenoid. These two solenoids work together to control the overlap foreach shift transition.

722.6/NAG 1Torque Converter Operation

NOTE: Don’t be fooled by the dis-coloration of the torqueconverter, a blueish tint color is normal. When the factoryfurnace brazes the fins in the torque converter, the color of themetal takes on the look of a failed or burnt converter. Do NOTreplace the converter on its look alone without a proper test toverify a failure.

The Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) is hydraulically operated and electronicallycontrolled. The TCC consists of a piston and friction discs that provide a mechani-cal link between the impeller and turbine. When pressure is applied to the rear ofthe TCC piston, TCC engagement is obtained. The torque converter clutch is neverfully engaged. The TCC when engaged, is always slipping at a rate of somewherebetween 5% and 95%. This reduces excess heat build-up, engine vibration andpulse transmission through the torque converter and improves fuel economy.

TCC operation can be activated in 3rd, 4th or 5th gear ranges, depending ontransmission model, application, shift lever position, transmission temperatureand other factors.

The hub of the torque converter housing drives the transmission oil pump atengine speed.

722.6/NAG 1Torque Converter Shudder

TCC shudder or Ratio codes may be caused by installing the wrong torque con-verter. The torque converter can have one, two or three friction clutches. It canalso be equipped with or without a spring dampner. Always match the torqueconverter to the vehicle application. The two common areas to look for the properapplication are the torque converter and the transmission ID tag on the side ofthe transmission.

Transmission fluid serves a number of purposes including application of hydrau-lics, lubrication, cooling, cleaning and seal conditioning. Transmission shift qual-ity, heat dissipation and Transmission Control Module (TCM) calibration all dictatethe type of transmission fluid that is used. Transmission fluids are similar buthave different characteristics such as viscosity and the additives in the fluid,which is why there will be different fluids used in Crossfire, Sprinter and 300C.Drain and refill the transmission fluid at the recommended service interval of80,000 miles. Most other models are life time fill.

The transmission has varying capacities depending on vehicle application. Trans-mission fluid capacity includes the transmission, the torque converter and thetransmission fluid cooler.

The fill tube in Sprinter, Crossfire, Jaguar, and Mercedes vehicles is sealed fromthe factory and requires a special service dipstick tool (#8863A) to check the fluidlevel. A special cap is used for sealing the transmission dipstick tube. When thelocking pin is removed it will break off. The locking pin part number is A 140 99100 55 when ordered from a Mercedes dealer. The 300C (LX) requires a specialservice dipstick tool (9336). Grand Cherokee (WJ) comes equipped with a dipstick.

Geartrain end play is a very critical pre-disassembly check to help determine thecondition of the transmission. End play readings greater than specification (largergap) indicate that a bearing or thrust plate is either missing, worn or hasdisintegrated, in which case there will be debris in the oil pan. End play readingsthat are below specification (smaller gap) indicate that a bearing is out of positionor that the transmission might have been previously set-up incorrectly.

Support the transmission in a vertical position, DO NOT rest the transmission onthe output shaft. Attach the tools as shown to measure end play. The gear trainend play is measured differently when the transmission is being reassembled.Measure the end play between the park pawl gear and the end of the housingand between the rear of the bearing contact surface and the end of the housing.The difference between the two measurements is the gear train end play. Selectthe appropriate shim so that the end play is between 0.3-0.5 mm (0.012-0.020in.).

722.6/NAG 1Oil Pump Assembly

The oil pump assembly supplies fluid under pressure to the transmission hydrauliccircuits and to the torque converter. The version of the gear pump used in thetransmission is called a crescent gear pump. The crescent gear pump consists ofan externally toothed gear that meshes with an internally toothed gear inside thepump housing. The inner gear, driven by the engine through lugs on the rear ofthe torque converter, drives the outer gear. A crescent-shaped piece extends intothe pumping chamber and lies between the two gears. The crescent separates theinlet and outlet ports. As the gears rotate, the clearance increases at the inlet port,creating the low pressure that allows atmospheric pressure to push in the fluid.The gear teeth carry the fluid to the outlet port to discharge the fluid underpressure.

The oil pump is mounted in the transmission converter housing. The oil pump canonly be serviced by disassembling the transmission. The bolts securing the oilpump in the housing are inside the transmission through the B1 brake assembly.
