DTC P0727

Steps 1-4:

Steps 5-10:

Circuit Description
Engine speed information is sent to the Transmission Control Module (TCM) by the engine control module (ECM) through a communication network called the Controller Area Network (CAN). Two circuits are used to communicate CAN data between the ECM and TCM. A fault in the CAN will not cause DTC P0727 to set by itself. If a CAN fault occurs, the DTC'S will set before DTC P0727.
When the ECM sends the TCM an invalid engine speed, then DTC P0727 will set. DTC P0727is a type B DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC
The system voltage is 8 - 18 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The engine speed is invalid for 2.0 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The TCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
^ The TCM turns OFF the pressure control solenoid. When the pressure control solenoid is off, the line pressure is at maximum, and updates to the Transmission Adaptive Pressure (TAP) memory cells are discontinued.
^ At the time of the first failure, the TCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The TCM stores this information as a Failure Record.
^ At the time of the second failure, the ECM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The ECM stores this information as a Freeze Frame.
^ The TCM stores DTC P0727 in TCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ The ECM turns OFF the MIL after the sixth consecutive drive trip in which the TCM does not send a MIL illumination request.
^ A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.
^ The TCM clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ The TCM cancels the default actions when the ignition is OFF long enough in order to power down the TCM.
