Circuit/System Description

The input speed sensor (ISS) is a hall-effect type sensor. The ISS mounts to the inside of the automatic transmission case assembly and connects to the control solenoid valve assembly through a 2-wire harness and connector. The sensor faces the reluctor wheel which is attached to the 4-5-6 clutch and 3-5-R clutch housing assembly. The sensor receives battery voltage on the input speed sensor ISS Supply Voltage circuit from the transmission control module (TCM). As the 4-5-6 clutch and 3-5-R clutch housing rotates, the sensor produces a signal frequency based on the teeth of the reluctor wheel. This signal is transmitted through the ISS signal circuit to the TCM. The TCM uses the ISS signal to determine line pressure, transmission shift patterns, torque converter clutch (TCC) slip speed and gear ratio.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify with a scan tool the transmission ISS/OSS Supply Voltage test status parameter displays OK.

If the parameter value displays Fault or Malfunction
Refer to Circuit/System Testing below.

If the parameter value displays OK

3. Engine idling in PARK, while varying the engine speed, observe the Transmission ISS parameter. The parameter should vary with the engine speed and there should not be any spikes or dropouts.

If the parameter value does not vary with engine speed or has spikes or dropouts
Refer to Circuit/System Testing below.

If the parameter value varies with engine speed and there are no spikes or dropouts

4. Perform the Road Test Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview.

5. Verify with a scan tool DTC P0716, P0717, P07BF, or P07C0 did not set.

If DTC P0716, P0717, P07BF, or P07C0 set
Refer to Circuit/System Testing below.

If DTC P0716, P0717, P07BF, or P07C0 did not set

6. After performing the above steps, verify that the DTC does not reset by operating the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions you observe from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data. If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification procedure, then STOP. Do not perform the Circuit/System Testing or Component Testing as this may result in an unnecessary part replacement. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections.
