Transmission Verification Test

After completion of the transmission verification test, the Powertrain Verification Test must be performed. Refer to => [ PCM Verification Test ] PCM Verification Test.

Connect the scan tool to the DLC.

Connect any disconnected components.

With the scan tool, erase all transmission and engine DTCs.

Erase DTC P0700 under engine to turn off the MIL light off after completion of transmission repairs.

Perform *PRNDL Fault Clearing Procedure after completion of repairs for DTC P0706.

If the PCM or the transmission have been repaired or replaced, it is necessary to perform the scan tool Quick Learn Procedure.

If the torque converter has been replaced, perform the TCC Break-In with the scan tool.

If the PCM or TIPM has been replaced you must reset the pinion factor in the TIPM.

With the scan tool, display the transmission temperature. Start and run the engine until the transmission temperature is above 43 °C (110 °F).

Check the transmission fluid and adjust if necessary.

Road test the vehicle. With the scan tool, monitor the engine RPM. Make 15 to 20 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 upshifts. Perform these shifts from a standing start to 45 MPH with a constant throttle opening of 20 to 25 degrees.

With speeds less than 25 MPH, make 5 to 8 wide open throttle kickdowns to 1st gear. Allow at least 5 seconds each in 2nd and 3rd gear between each kickdown.

For a specific DTC, drive the vehicle to the Symptom's When Monitored/When Set conditions to verify the DTC is repaired.

If equipped with AutoStick(R), upshift and downshift several times using the AutoStick(R) feature during the road test.

Use the OBDII task manager to run a good trip in each gear, this will confirm the repair and to ensure that the DTC has not re-matured.

Check for any DTCs during and after the road test.
