Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor, Checking
Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor, Checking
• This procedure is used to diagnose Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor 1 (G193) and Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor 2 (G194)
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Multimeter
• Wiring diagram
• The Transmission Control Module (TCM) (J217) fuse OK.
• The battery voltage must be at least 12.5 Volts.
• All electrical consumers must be switched off.
• The parking brake must be engaged.
• The selector lever must be in the "P" position.
• The Ground (GND) connections to transmission must be OK.
• Ignition switched off.
Test procedure
- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check.
Start diagnosis
- Disconnect the Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor electrical harness connector - 1 -.
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
- Repair any damage found to the electrical harness connector.
If the electrical harness connector is OK:
Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the Adapter F/VAG1598 (68 Pin) (VAG1598/22 ).
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Transmission Control Module (TCM) ( J217). Refer to => [ Transmission Control Module, Replacing ] Service and Repair.
- Using a multimeter, check the Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor electrical harness connector terminals to the Transmission Control Module (TCM) (J217 ) electrical harness connector T52 terminals for resistance.
Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.
If the specification was not obtained:
- Check the wiring for an open circuit, short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).
- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction was found in the wiring and the resistance was not OK:
- Replace the faulty Automatic Transmission Hydraulic Pressure Sensor. Refer to Automatic Transmissions, Repair Group 38.
- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the DTC does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code, Setting ] Readiness Code, Setting.
- End of diagnosis.
If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and resistance was OK:
- Replace the Transmission Control Module (TCM) ( J217). Refer to => [ Transmission Control Module, Replacing ] Service and Repair.
- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.
Final procedures
1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.
2. If necessary, erase DTC memory of the Transmission Control Module (TCM) (J217). => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code, Setting ] Readiness Code, Setting.
End of diagnosis.
