system will store a diagnostic trouble code in the TCM memory if
certain electronic problems exist. If electronic problem goes away,
diagnostic trouble code will be erased from TCM memory after ignition
has been cycled approximately 75 times.
NOTE: Diagnostic trouble code may be referred to as fault code.
Diagnostic trouble codes can be retrieved using a Diagnostic
Readout Box-II (DRB-II). After repairing an electrical system problem,\
stored diagnostic trouble code must be cleared from TCM memory.
The TCM is located behind right side of instrument panel on
Cherokee. See Fig. 1.

VALVE BODY SOLENOIDS
Valve body solenoids, mounted on the valve body, are output
devices controlled by signals received from the TCM. See Fig. 2. The
No. 1 and 2 valve body solenoids control transmission shifts while the
No. 3 valve body solenoid is used for torque converter lock-up.
When No. 1 and 2 valve body solenoids are energized,
solenoid plunger moves from seat. This opens the drain port and
releases line pressure. When either valve body solenoid is de-
energized, plunger closes the drain port.
The No. 3 valve body solenoid operates in reverse. When No. 3
valve body solenoid is de-energized, solenoid plunger moves away from
seat. This opens the drain port and releases line pressure. When No. 3
valve body solenoid is energized, the plunger closes the drain port.
