The rotary switch  is located on the  LH side  of the  transmission.  The harness incorporates  the transmission  wiring and 
runs  into the car through  the a hole in the  LH side  of the  tunnel.  The connectors GBOOI and GB002 are located  on the 
side  of the  selector mechanism ‘J’ gate  assembly. 
TRANSMISSION  RANGE SENSOR  CIRCUIT - P 0705 
This test is  performed continuously  by the  background diagnostics  during operation.  The test  is a plausibility  check 
on  the 3 bit  Gray  code.  The test criteria is  that an invalid code must not be  seen. If a Z code is  seen for more than looms, 
then this fault  code will be stored and  the transmission  will adopt  the default function. 
TRANSMISSION  RANGE SENSOR  CIRCUIT RANGE/  PERFORMANCE - P 0706 
This is a plausibilitycheck on the 3 bit Gray  code  which  is only  performed  once during  cranking when  the engine  speed 
reaches 
a specific threshold. If the  gear  is not  P or N  when this test  is performed,  then this fault code  will be flagged 
and  the transmission  will adopt  the default function.

TRANSMISSION  FLUID TEMPERATURE  SENSOR INPUTS P 0712 / P 0713 
The transmission  fluid temperature  sensor is a positive  temperature coefficient  thermistor bead, located in the internal 
wiring  harness  of the transmission assembly  and immersed in the transmission  fluid in the unit  sump.  The wiring  is 
taken  out through  the transmission connector and  runs through the rotary switch and  then into the gearbox  harness 
to  the  TCM.  The pin outs  on the  relevant parts  are as follows.

This input  is continuously  monitored during initialization  and operation by the  processor  and is checked against spe- cific  limits  to be  in range. If the  temperature indicated by  the sensor  is too low then this fault  code will be stored and 
the  processor  will use a substitute value  for the transmission  oil temperature. 
The  low limit  is approximately 
-50" C. This  fault  would  indicate  that the output signal line  (Pin 46) is probably short 
circuit  to ground. 
TRANSMISSION  FLUID TEMPERATURE  SENSOR HIGH INPUT- P 0713 
This input  is continuously  monitored during initialization  and operation by the processor and is checked against  spe- cific limits to  be in range. If the  temperature indicated by  the sensor  is too high  then this fault  code  will be stored and 
the  processor  will use a substitute value  for the transmission  oil temperature.  The high  limit is approximately 185" C. 
This fault  would  indicate  that the input  signal  line (Pin 46) is probably open  circuit or short circuit  to battery  positive 
voltage (+I2 nominal). 
Possible causes:

The output  speed sensor is located  on the  rear  of thevalve block  assembly  inside the transmission. Connection  is made 
via  pins  A and F of  the %way transmission connector located  on the left hand side  of the transmission  assembly. The 
wiring  runs through  the rotary  switch  harness  and the vehicle gearbox  harness to the  TCM  on pins 2 and  38 of the 55 way multi-plug.  These  wires are shielded by a screen  which is terminated  on pin  20 of the  TCM multi-plug.  The sensor 
detects  the motion of  the output shaft via a 36 toothed  wheel.

This test is  only performed  when a downshift takes place  and therefore the vehicle must  be in a forward gear ie D, 3, 2, 1. A fault  will be flagged  if the  engine  speed is above a threshold  which is dependant  on the shift  and the state of the  lock  up clutch. 
This  fault  code  would  suggest  that there  is  an intermittent fault  in the  circuit. 
OUTPUT  SPEED SENSOR  CIRCUIT  NO SIGNAL - P 0722 
The  background diagnostic software continuously  monitors the output speed and flags  this fault if the output  speed 
is  zero  when  the engine  speed is greater  than 2000 rpm and a forward  gear, D, 3,2,1, is selected. 
This  fault  code  would  suggest 
a permanent fault, either open circuit, short  to ground or  short circuit  to battery  positive 
voltage (+12V nominal).

ENGINE SPEED INPUT - P 0726 / P 0727 
The engine  speed input signal is a square wave  output from the ECM.  The signal is 12 volt  active  high with a duty cycle 
of 50" / 120" of  crankshaft  revolution ie 3 pulses per  revolution.  The frequency of  the signal  is proportional  to engine 
speed.

Engine  speed is continuously monitored by the  background diagnostics. This fault is flagged if the  engine  speed ex- 
ceeds the maximum  speed threshold (approx 6800 rpm). This fault  code  would  suggest  an intermittent fault  in the cir- cuit. 
ENGINE  SPEED INPUT CIRCUIT  NO SIGNAL - P 0727 
If the  engine  speed drops below 95 rpm and the selected  gear is not P or N, then the  TCM will initiate the default  mode. 
This  fault  code  will only  be stored if the output  speed is greater  than 300 rpm.  This is to prevent  spurious flagging  of 
codes if the  engine stalls. 
Possible causes: 
. Faulty harness  wiring 1 connectors. 
. Faulty signal from ECM. 
Effects:

SOL ENOlD VALVES 
The following  tests are performed continuously  by a background  task. If a fault  is detected, it is filtered for a set period. 
When  filtering  ends a fault  code is stored in the TCM  and action  is taken  to ensure  the integrity  of the  system. 
During  limp home  mode the internal  relay is turned 
off to  remove  the supply  to the  solenoids  and the gearbox with default  to fourth  gear (if aforward  gear is alreadyselected) and third  gear (if P.R.N.). Selecting  N and  then D will engage 
3rd  gear  only. 
Each  test checks  that the feedback  from the output  stage module  is consistent 
with the  driven  state of the  solenoid 
output,  detects short circuit to ground,  short circuit to battery voltage and open  circuit.

TORQUE REDUCTION  SIGNAL - P 1780 
The diagnostic  for this signal is  based entirely on  feedback from the ECM. If the torque reduction  request is active  for 
greater  than 2 seconds,  the ECM  starts  the torque reduction fault timeout (IO seconds). If the signal returns  to the 
standby  condition  within this time,  the timeout  is reset. If the timeout  matures then the  ECM stores a fault code and 
transmits  93% on the torque signal line  and also lights the MIL  where necessary. 
The  ECM  will also initiate the torque reduction fault timeout 
if the signal  line is permanently high or  low for greater 
than 125ms. The  conditions  for resetting the timeout  and the actions  if the timeout  matures are the  same  as previously 
described  above. When the  TCM receives  the correct  indication on the torque signal  line, this fault  code  will be stored 
and 
a substitute function  will be adopted  and the warning  lamp will be illuminated.  The engine management  will send 
normal torque signal when the torque reduction signal returns  to standby or when the  ignition is reset. 
This torque reduction signal is  used during  gearshifts  to conveythe  actual amount  of retard  to be  applied  to the  ignition 
advance angle 
afterthe other  trims.  The signal idles at 17%  (or 12% if theTCM wishes  to drive the MIL  on), and changes 
to  20% at the  start  of a gearshift. This represents 0" retard. When  an amount of retard  is required, the PWM  will increase 
to  the  desired  value (between  20% and 90%)  and return  to 20%  and then  to idle  state at the end  of the  shift.

TORQUE SIGNAL MALFUNCTION - P 1781 
The torque signal  is a PWM signal  from the ECM  to the  TCM  which  conveys  information  about the actual  torque  devel- oped by the engine  in the range 0 to 510Nm. The  base  frequency is 91Hz and the  signal which is  active low should  be 
within  the range  10% to 90%  modulation.  The torque signal is monitored continuously during initialization  and oper
- ation.  If  the frequency  of the  signal is  incorrect or  the signal is out of  range, then this fault  code will be flagged.  The 
TCM  will adopt a substitute function  and the warning lamp  will be illuminated.  This fault  code  will only  be flagged if the  engine  speed is above 448 rpm.

TRACTION CONTROL  INPUT ELECTRICAL - P 1782 
The traction control input allows the ABS/TC CM,  which performs the traction control function  to inform theTCM when 
traction control is  in operation.  This  allows the TCM to select a specific  shift pattern which  increases the effectiveness 
of the traction control. 
The  signal  has two  states;  active and inactive.  In the inactive  state the line is pulled high  by 
a 1 k21  resistor  in the  TCM 
and  should  rest at battery voltage.  In the  active  state, the ABS /TC CM drives  a square  wave signal at 2.5 Hz ie on for 200ms, off for 200ms. During the off  phase the voltage should  be greater  than battery voltage minus 1.5V and during 
the  on phase  the voltage should  be less than 1V. 
Because  traction control is not  fitted to all vehicles the traction control input  will be open  circuit  on some  cars. Diagnos- tics are limited  to detection  of permanent  short circuit  to ground.  Fault detection  is triggered  if the  signal line voltage is less  than 1.8V for longer than 200ms. If a fault  is detected code P 1782  is stored  and the traction control shift pattern 
is inhibited.  The diagnostic test is  performed continuously during initialization  and operation.
