* Transmission temperature sensor ground circuit open.
* Transmission temperature signal circuit short to voltage.
* Transmission temperature sensor signal circuit open.
* PCM defective.
* Transmission pressure/temperature sensor defective.
Diagnostic Procedures
1) On AN and DN bodies, go to next step. On all except AN and
DN bodies, use scan tool to read DTCs. If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS
counter is not displayed or displayed count is not "0", go to step
11). If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter is displayed and displayed
count is "0", go to next step.
2) Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM harness connectors.
Inspect connectors and terminals for damage. Repair as necessary. If
connectors and terminals are okay, measure voltage between ground and
transmission temperature signal circuit at White PCM harness connector
C2. If voltage is greater than one volt, go to next step. If voltage
is one volt or less, go to step 5).
3) Disconnect transmission solenoid harness connector.
Inspect connector and terminals for damage. Repair as necessary. If
connector and terminals are okay, measure voltage between ground and
transmission temperature signal circuit at transmission solenoid
harness connector. If voltage is greater than one volt, repair
transmission temperature signal circuit for short to ground. If
voltage is one volt or less, go to next step.
4) Reconnect transmission solenoid harness connector. Remove
transmission oil pan. Disconnect transmission pressure/temperature
sensor harness connector. Measure voltage between ground and
transmission temperature signal circuit at transmission
pressure/temperature sensor harness connector. If voltage is greater
than one volt, repair or replace transmission solenoid and harness
assembly. If voltage is one volt or less, replace transmission
pressure/temperature sensor.
5) Turn ignition off. Measure resistance between transmission
temperature signal circuit at White PCM harness connector C2 and
ground circuit at Black PCM harness connector C1. If resistance is
less than 550 ohms, go to DTC P0712: TRANS TEMP SENSOR VOLTAGE TOO
LOW. If resistance is 550 ohms or more, go to next step.
6) If resistance is 550-2300 ohms, go to step 10). If
resistance is greater than 2300 ohms, go to next step.
7) Disconnect transmission solenoid harness connector.
Inspect connector and terminals for damage. Repair as necessary. If
connector and terminals are okay, measure resistance of sensor ground
circuit between Black PCM harness connector C1 and transmission
solenoid harness. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, repair open in
transmission temperature signal circuit. If resistance is less than 5
ohms, go to next step.
8) Measure resistance of transmission temperature signal
circuit between White PCM harness connector C2 and transmission
solenoid harness connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to
next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, repair open
transmission temperature signal circuit.
9) Reconnect transmission solenoid harness connector. Remove
transmission oil pan. Disconnect transmission pressure/temperature
sensor harness connector. Measure resistance of sensor ground circuit
Page 234 of 1691

between Black PCM harness connector C1 and transmission
pressure/temperature sensor harness connector. If resistance is
greater than 5 ohms, repair or replace transmission solenoid and
harness assembly. If resistance is 5 ohms or less, replace
transmission pressure/temperature sensor.
10) Reconnect all harness connectors. Using scan tool, read
TRANS TEMP voltage. If voltage is greater than 3.76 volts, replace
PCM. If voltage is 3.76 volts or less, conditions required to set DTC
P0713 are not present at this time. DTC P0713 sets when transmission
temperature sensor voltage at PCM is greater than 3.76 volts for 2.2
seconds. Possible causes are: open transmission temperature sensor
wiring, faulty connections, faulty transmission temperature sensor or
faulty PCM. Go to next step.
11) Inspect all related wiring and connectors. Repair as
necessary. If wiring and connectors are okay, see INACTIVE DTC
CONDITION under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. Testing is complete.
DTC P0720: LOW OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR RPM ABOVE 15 MPH (EXCEPT
BR BODY)
Circuit Description
Circuit is monitored continuously while key is on, and gear
selector is not in Park or Neutral. Code sets if vehicle speed is
above 15 MPH and output shaft speed is below 60 RPM for 2.6 seconds as
measured from vehicle speed sensor.
Possible Causes
* Open output speed sensor ground circuit.
* Damaged ignition wiring.
* Open output speed sensor signal circuit.
* Short to ground in output speed sensor signal circuit.
* Park/Neutral switch code present.
* Malfunctioning sensor.
* Short to ground in output speed sensor ground circuit.
* Malfunctioning PCM.
* OSS harness intermittent defective.
Diagnostic Procedure
1) Using scan tool, check SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter. If DTC
SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter is not displayed or displayed count is not
"0", go to step 12). If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter is displayed
and displayed count is "0", go to next step.
2) Record all DTCs and one trip failures. If DTC P1899 is
present, repair P/N switch code first. See DTC P1899: P/N SWITCH STUCK
IN PARK OR ON GEAR. If DTC P1899 is not present, go to next step.
3) Raise and support vehicle. Using scan tool, erase DTCs.
See CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES. Start engine. Place engine in
1st gear. Using scan tool, read output speed sensor. Release brake and
let wheels roll, keeping speed below 15 MPH. If scan tool shows 60 RPM
or less, go to step 6). If scan tool shows greater than 60 RPM, go to
next step.
4) While monitoring output speed sensor, wiggle harness
between output speed sensor and PCM. If reading dropped towards zero
while wiggling harness, repair intermittent short or open in harness.
If reading does not drop towards zero while wiggling harness, go to
next step.
5) Using scan tool, erase DTCs. See CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLE CODES. Road test vehicle. If code returns, there are no other
potential causes. Replace PCM. If code does not return, testing is
complete.
6) Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM and output speed sensor
harness connectors and inspect for damage. Repair as necessary. If no
Page 235 of 1691

problem is found, measure resistance between output speed sensor
terminals. If resistance is 300-1200 ohms, go to next step. If
resistance is not as specified, replace output speed sensor.
7) Reconnect output speed sensor. Measure resistance between
ground and output speed sensor ground circuit at PCM harness
connector. If resistance is greater than 5 ohms, go to next step. If
resistance is not as specified, repair output speed sensor ground
circuit for a short to ground.
8) Measure resistance between ground and output speed sensor
signal circuit at PCM harness connector. If resistance is less than 5
ohms, repair output speed sensor signal circuit for a short to ground.
If resistance is not as specified, go to next step.
9) Measure resistance between output speed sensor signal
circuit and ground circuit at PCM harness connector. If resistance is
300-1200 ohms, replace PCM. If resistance is not as specified, go to
next step.
10) Disconnect output speed sensor harness connector. Measure
resistance of output speed sensor signal circuit between output speed
sensor harness connector and PCM harness connector. If resistance is
greater than 5 ohms, repair open in output speed sensor signal
circuit. If resistance is not as specified, repair open in output
speed sensor ground circuit.
11) Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and
speed sensor ground circuit at PCM harness connector. Place gearshift
lever in each gear position and record voltage at each position. If
voltage is greater than one volt in any gear position, repair speed
sensor ground circuit for a short to power. If voltage is not as
specified, go to next step.
12) Raise and support vehicle. Start engine. Place gearshift
lever in "OD" position. Release brakes and allow wheels to rotate.
Using scan tool, monitor output speed sensor. While monitoring output
speed sensor, wiggle harness between output speed sensor and PCM. If
reading dropped towards zero while wiggling harness, repair
intermittent short or open in harness. If reading does not drop
towards zero while wiggling harness, problem is intermittent. See
INACTIVE DTC CONDITION under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. Testing is
complete.
