Circuit/System Description

The torque converter clutch (TCC) pressure control (PC) solenoid is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable components. The normally low TCC PC solenoid regulates oil pressure to the TCC regulator valve and TCC control valve. Increasing TCC PC solenoid oil pressure increases oil pressure to the torque converter to apply the clutch. The transmission control module (TCM) varies the current to the TCC PC solenoid through a low side driver. Increasing current to the TCC PC solenoid increases oil pressure by closing OFF the solenoid exhaust port. Decreasing current to the TCC PC solenoid decreases oil pressure by opening up the solenoid exhaust port. The TCC PC solenoid power is supplied by the TCM through a high side driver (HSD). The HSD protects the circuit and components from excessive current flow. If excessive current flow is detected, the HSD will turn OFF. When the fault is corrected, the HSD will reset.

For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools 6T30/6T40/6T45/6T50 - Automatic Transmission.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Operate the vehicle in 2nd gear long enough to ensure at least a 3°C (5°F) rise in TCM temperature.

2. Operate the vehicle in drive range and ensure TCC is commanded ON for 1 minute.

3. Verify with a scan tool the following parameters display OK.

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Performance Test Status

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Control Circuit Low Voltage Test Status

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status

If any test status parameter displays Fault or Malfunction
Refer to Circuit/System Testing below.

If all test status parameters display OK

4. 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.

Circuit/System Testing

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

1. Ignition OFF, remove the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement Service and Repair.

2. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection (Gen 1 with 1.4L - LCU, 1.6L - LDE or LFJ, 1.8L - LUW) Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection (Gen 1 with 1.4L - LCU, 1.6L - LDE or LFJ, 1.8L - LUControl Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection (Gen 2 with 1.4L - LUV) Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection (Gen 2 with 1.4L - LUV). The Q8 control solenoid valve assembly must be externally cleaned of all debris.

3. Place the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly on a clean work surface near the transmission assembly.

4. Connect the DT-48616-10 - harness between the vehicle wire harness X1 14-way transmission electrical connector, and the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly electrical connector, ignition ON.

5. Verify with a scan tool the following test status parameters display OK.

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Performance Test Status

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Control Circuit Low Voltage Test Status

* TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status

If any test status parameter displays Fault or Malfunction
Replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.

If all test status parameters display OK

6. All OK.
