VT25-E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

DTC P1758





Circuit Description with VT25-E Automatic Transmission
The transmission range (TR) switch is part of the park/neutral position and back-up lamp switch assembly and is mounted on the transmission manual shaft. The TR switch is a multi-signal switch. The fuse block - underhood supplies ignition voltage to the TR switch on 4 signal circuits, A, B, C, and P. Each gear selector lever position powers 2 or more of the signal circuits in a unique pattern. In order to determine the gear range selected by the driver, the TCM compares the voltage combination on the signal circuits to a TR switch combination table stored in memory. Refer to Transmission Range Switch Logic. When the TCM detects the combination of TR switch signals for a forward range and the vehicle is not moving moving, DTC P1758 sets. DTC P1758 is a type B DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC
^ No engine torque HSCAN DTC P1779.
^ No transmission range switch DTCs P0705, or P1756.
^ No OSS DTCs P0722, or P0723.
^ No ISS DTCs P0716, or P0717
^ No TCC enable solenoid valve DTCs P1888, or P1889.
^ No TCC system stuck ON DTC P0742.
^ The ignition voltage is 8 - 18 volts.
^ The engine speed is greater than 500 RPM for 5 seconds.
^ The throttle position angle is less than 1 percent.
^ The transmission input shaft speed is 550 RPM or greater for 20 seconds.
^ The transmission output shaft speed is 150 RPM or less.
^ The speed ratio is 0.38 - 0.6.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The combination of TR switch signals indicate a forward range while the vehicle is not moving. Refer to Transmission Range Switch Logic.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The TCM requests the ECM to illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
^ The TCM turns off power off to the torque converter clutch pressure control solenoid valve.
^ The TCM discontinues abuse torque management.
^ The TCM defaults the selected gear range to Drive.
^ The ECM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The ECM stores this information as Freeze Frame and Failure Records.
^ The TCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The TCM stores this information as Failure Records.
^ The TCM stores DTC P1758 in TCM history during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ The ECM turns OFF the MIL after the third consecutive drive trip in which the TCM does not send a MIL illumination request.
^ A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.
^ The TCM clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission-related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ The TCM cancels the DTC default actions when the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the TCM.
