DTC Descriptor
DTC P1761
- Up and Down Shift Switch Signal Circuit

Circuit/System Description

The driver shift request (DSR), also known as the TAP Up/Downshift manual shift function, allows the driver to select the desired range of gears for current driving conditions. The DSR shift system is activated when the gear selector is in the manual position. The DSR system is deactivated in all other range positions. When DSR is selected, a signal is sent to the body control module (BCM) and the also to the transmission control module (TCM). Each time a signal is sent, an internal counter in the BCM and TCM increments. Both counters must have the same value. This code sets when the rolling count value of the TCM does not match the same rolling count value sent from the BCM.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The engine speed is 400 RPM or greater for 5 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The TCM detects an error in the rolling count value that does not match with the BCM.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTC P1761 is a Type C DTC.
* The TCM disables TAP Shift operation.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P1761 is a Type C DTC.
