1.0 INTRODUCTION
The procedures contained in this manual include
all of the specifications, instructions, and graphics
needed to diagnose 41TE/AE Electronic Automatic
Transaxle (EATX) problems. The diagnostics in this
manual are based on the failure condition or symp-
tom being present at the time of diagnosis.
When repairs are required, refer to the appropri-
ate volume of the service manual for the proper
removal and repair procedure.
Diagnostic procedures change every year. New
diagnostic systems may be added and/or carryover
systems may be enhanced. READ THIS MANUAL
BEFORE TRYING TO DIAGNOSE A VEHICLE
TROUBLE CODE. It is recommended that you
review the entire manual to become familiar with
all new and changed diagnostic procedures.
This book reflects many suggested changes from
readers of past issues. After using this book, if you
have any comments or recommendations, please fill
out the form at the back of the book and mail it back
to us.
1.1 SYSTEM COVERAGE
This diagnostic procedures manual covers all
2001 RG equipped with a 41TE/AE transaxle.
1.2 SIX -STEP TROUBLESHOOTING
PROCEDURE
Diagnosis of the 41TE/AE electronic transaxle is
done in six basic steps:
verification of complaint
verification of any related symptoms
symptom analysis
problem isolation
repair of isolated problem
verification of proper operation
2.0 IDENTIFICATION OF
SYSTEM
RG series vehicles equipped with a 4 speed trans-
mission.
3.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 41TE/AE electronic transaxle is a conven-
tional transaxle in that it uses hydraulically ap-
plied clutches to shift a planetary gear train. How-
ever, the electronic control system replaces many of
the mechanical and hydraulic components used in
conventional transmission valve bodies.
3.2 FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
The 41TE/AE electronic transaxle has a fully
adaptive control system. The system performs it's
functions based on continuous real-time sensor
feedback information. The control system automat-
ically adapts to changes in engine performance and
friction element variations to provide consistent
shift quality. The control system ensures that clutch
operation during upshifting and downshifting is
more responsive without increased harshness.
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) contin-
uously checks for electrical problems, mechanical
problems, and some hydraulic problems. When a
problem is sensed, the TCM stores a diagnostic
trouble code. Some of these codes cause the tran-
saxle to go into limp-in or default mode.
While in this mode, electrical power is taken
away from the transaxle via the TCM, de-
energizing the transmission control relay, and tak-
ing power from the solenoid pack. When this hap-
pens, the only transaxle mechanical functions are:
Park and Neutral
Reverse
Second Gear
No upshifts or downshifts are possible. The posi-
tion of the manual valve alone allows the three
ranges that are available. Although vehicle perfor-
mance is seriously degraded while in this mode, it
allows the owner to drive the vehicle in for service.
Once the DRBIIItis in the EATX portion of the
diagnostic program, it constantly monitors the
TCM to see if the system is in limp-in mode. If the
transaxle is in limp-in mode, the DRBIIIž will flash
the red LED.
3.2.1 AUTOSTICK FEATURE
This feature allows the driver to manually shift
the transaxle when the shift lever is pulled back
into the AutoStick position. When in AutoStick
mode, the instrument cluster displays the current
gear.

GENERAL INFORMATION

3.2.2 TRANSMISSION OPERATION AND
SHIFT SCHEDULING AT VARIOUS
OIL TEMPERATURES.
The transmission covered in this manual has
unique shift schedules depending on the tempera-
ture of the transmission oil. The shift schedule is
modified to extend the life of the transmission while
operating under extreme conditions.
The oil temperature is measured with a Temper-
ature Sensor on the 41TE/AE transmission. The
Temperature Sensor is an integral component of the
Transmission Range Sensor (TRS). If the Tempera-
ture Sensor is faulty, (DTC P1799(74)) the trans-
mission will default to a calculated oil temperature.
Oil temperature will then be calculated through a
complex heat transfer equation which uses engine
coolant temperature, battery/ambient temperature,
and engine off time from the Body Control Module
(BCM). These inputs are received from the PCI bus
periodically and used to initialize the oil tempera-
ture at start up. Once the engine is started, the
TCM updates the transmission oil temperature
based on torque converter slip speed, vehicle speed,
gear, and engine coolant temperature to determine
an estimated oil temperature during vehicle opera-
tion. Vehicles using a calculated oil temperature
track oil temperature reasonably accurate during
normal operation. However, if a transmission is
overfilled, a transmission oil cooler becomes re-
stricted, or if a customer drives aggressively in low
gear, the calculated oil temperature will be inaccu-
rate. Consequently the shift schedule selected may
be inappropriate for the current conditions. The key
highlights of the various shift schedules are as
follows:
Extreme Cold:Oil temperature at start up below
-26.6C (-16ÉF)
> Goes to a Cold schedule above -24C (-12ÉF) oil
temperature
> Park, Reverse, Neutral and 2nd gear only (pre-
vents shifting which may fail a clutch with fre-
quent shifts)
Cold:Oil temperature at start up above -24C
(-12ÉF) and below 2.2C (36ÉF)
> Goes to a Warm schedule above 4.4C (40ÉF) oil
temperature
> Delayed 2-3 upshift approximately 35-50 Km/h
(22-31 MPH)
> Delayed 3-4 upshift 72-85 Km/h (45-53 MPH)
> Early 4-3 coastdown shift approximately 48
Km/h (30 MPH)
> Early 3-2 coastdown shift approximately 27
Km/h (17 MPH)> High speed 4-2, 3-2, 2-1 kickdown shifts are
prevented
> No EMCC
Warm:Oil temperature at start up above 2.2C
(36ÉF) and below 27C (80ÉF)
> Goes to a Hot schedule above 27C (80ÉF) oil
temperature
> Normal operation (upshifts, kickdowns, and
coastdowns)
> No EMCC
Hot:Oil temperature at start up above 27C (80ÉF)
> Goes to a Overheat schedule above 115C (240ÉF)
oil temperature
> Normal operation (upshifts, kickdowns, and
coastdowns)
> Full EMCC, No PEMCC except to engage
FEMCC
(Except at closed throttle at speeds above 113-133
Km/h (70 - 83 MPH)
Overheat:Oil temperature above 115C (240ÉF) or
engine coolant temperature above 118C (244ÉF)
> Goes to a Hot below 110C (230ÉF) oil temperature
or a Super Overheat above 115C (240ÉF) oil
temperature
> Delayed 2-3 upshift 40-51 Km/h (25-32 MPH)
> Delayed 3-4 upshift 66-77 Km/h (41-48 MPH)
> 3rd gear FEMCC from 48-77 Km/h (30-48 MPH)
> 3rd gear PEMCC from 43-50 Km/h (27-31 MPH)
Super Overheat:Oil temperature above 127C
(260ÉF)
> Goes back to a Overheat below 115C (240ÉF) oil
temperature
> All a Overheat shift schedules features apply
> 2nd gear PEMCC above 35 Km/h (22 MPH)
> Above 35 Km/h (22 MPH) the torque converter
will not unlock unless the throttle is closed (i.e. at
80 Km/h (50 MPH) a 4th FEMCC to 3rd FEMCC
shift will be made during a part throttle kick-
down or a 4th FEMCC to 2nd PEMCC shift will
be made at wide open throttle) or if a wide open
throttle 2nd PEMCC to 1 kickdown is made.
Causes for operation in the wrong tempera-
ture shift schedule:
Extreme Cold or Cold shift schedule at start up:
> Temperature Sensor circuit.
Overheat or Super Overheat shift schedule after
extended operation:
> Operation in city traffic or stop and go traffic
> Engine idle speed too high
> Aggressive driving in low gear
2
GENERAL INFORMATION

> Trailer towing in OD gear position (use 3 position
(or A/S 3rd) if frequent shifting occurs)
> Cooling system failure causing engine to operate
over 110C (230ÉF)
> Engine coolant temperature stays low too long -
If engine coolant temperature drops below 65C
(150ÉF), the transmission will disengage EMCC.
Extended operation with the EMCC disengaged
will cause the transmission to overheat.
> A brake switch issue will cause the EMCC to
disengage. Extended operation with the EMCC
disengaged will cause the transmission to over-
heat.
> Transmission fluid overfilled
> Transmission cooler or cooler lines restricted
> Transmission Temperature Sensor circuit
3.3 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's) are codes stored
by the Transmission Control Module (TCM) that
help us diagnose Transmission problems. They are
viewed using the DRBIIItscan tool.
Always begin by performing a visual inspection of
the wiring, connectors, cooler lines and the trans-
mission. Any obvious wiring problems or leaks
should be repaired prior to performing any diagnos-
tic test procedures. Some engine driveability prob-
lems can be misinterpreted as a transmission prob-
lem. Ensure that the engine is running properly
and that no PCM DTC's are present that could
cause a transmission complaint.
If there is a communication bus problem, trouble
codes will not be accessible until the problem is
fixed. The DRBIIItwill display an appropriate
message. The following is a possible list of causes
for a bus problem:
± open or short to ground/battery in PCI bus
circuit (pin 43).
± internal failure of any module or component on
the bus
Each diagnostic trouble code is diagnosed by
following a specific testing sequence. The diagnostic
test procedures contain step-by-step instructions
for determining the cause of a transmission diag-
nostic trouble code. Possible sources of the code are
checked and eliminated one by one. It is not neces-
sary to perform all of the tests in this book to
diagnose an individual code. These tests are based
on the problem being present at the time that the
test is run.All testing should be done with a
fully charged battery.
If the TCM records a DTC that will adversely
affect vehicle emissions, it will request (via the
communication bus) that the PCM illuminate the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Although theseDTC's will be stored in the TCM immediately as a 1
trip failure, it may take up to five minutes of
accumulated trouble confirmation set the DTC and
illuminate the MIL. Three consecutive successful
OBDII (EURO STAGE III OBD) trips or clearing
the DTC's with a diagnostic tool (DRBIIItor equiv-
alent) is required to extinguish the MIL. When the
TCM requests that the PCM illuminate the MIL,
the PCM sets a DTC P0700(89) to alert the techni-
cian that there are DTC's in the TCM. This must
also be erased in the PCM in order to extinguish the
MIL.
3.3.1 HARD CODE
Any Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) that is set
whenever the system or component is monitored is
a HARD code. This means that the problem is there
every time the TCM checks that system or compo-
nent. Some codes will set immediately at start up
and others will require a road test under specific
conditions. It must be determined if a code is
repeatable (Hard) or intermittent before attempt-
ing diagnosis.
3.3.2 ONE TRIP FAILURES
A One Trip Failure, when read from the TCM, is
a hard OBDII (EURO STAGE III OBD) code that
has not matured for the full 5 minutes. This applies
to codes that will only set after 5 minutes of
substituted gear operation.
3.3.3 INTERMITTENT CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every
time the TCM checks the circuit or function is an a
intermittent code. Some intermittent codes, such as
codes P1792(12), P1767(14), P1768(15), P0725(18),
P1716(19), P1781(21), P1782(22), P1724(24),
P0705(28), P0120(29), P0750(41), P0755(42),
P0760(43), P0765(44), P1793(48), P0715(56),
P0720(57), P1794(58), P1796(70), P1799(74),
P1739(76), P1717(77), and P0600(78) are caused by
wiring or connector problems. However intermit-
tent codes 50 - 54 are usually caused by intermit-
tent hydraulic seal leakage in the clutch and/or
accumulator circuits. Problems that come and go
like this are the most difficult to diagnose, they
must be looked for under the specific conditions
that cause them.
3.3.4 STARTS SINCE SET COUNTER
For the most recent code (Code 1), the Starts
Since Set counter counts the number of times the
vehicle has started since it was last set. The counter
will count up to 255 starts. Note that this code only
applies to the last code set.
When there are no diagnostic trouble codes stored
in memory, the DRBIIItwill display ``NO DTC'S
3
GENERAL INFORMATION

PRESENT'' and the reset counter will show
``STARTS SINCE CLEAR = XXX''.
The number of starts helps determine if the
diagnostic trouble code is hard or intermittent.
± If the count is less than 3, the code is usually a
hard code.
± If the count is greater than 3, it is considered
an intermittent code. This means that the
engine has been started most of the time
without the code recurring.
3.3.5 TROUBLE CODE ERASURE
A Diagnostic trouble code will be cleared from
TCM memory if it has not reset for 40 warm-up
cycles.A warm-up cycle is defined as sufficient vehicle
operation such that the coolant temperature has
risen by at least 4.4C (40ÉF) from engine starting
and reaches a minimum temperature of 71C
(160ÉF).
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will turn
off after 3 good trips or when the DTC's are cleared
from the TCM.

GENERAL INFORMATION

After a controller reset (ignition key turned to the
run position or after cranking engine), the control-
ler energizes the relay. Prior to this the TCM
verifies that the contacts are open by checking for
no voltage at the switched battery terminals. After
the relay is energized, the TCM monitors the ter-
minals to verify that the voltage is greater than 3
volts.
Transmission Effects:The MIL illuminates and
the transmission system defaults to Relay Open
limp-in mode.
Possible causes:
> Relay failure (intermittent relay function caused
by oxidized or contaminated relay contacts)
> Short to ground or open circuit in the Transmis-
sion Control Relay circuit(s)
> TCM connector problem
> TCM
Name of code:P0725(18) - Engine Speed Sensor
Circuit
When monitored:Whenever the engine is run-
ning.
Set condition:This code is set when the engine
speed sensed by the Transmission Control Module
(TCM) is less than 390 RPM or greater than 8000
RPM for more that 2.0 seconds.
Theory of operation:The TCM uses either a
EATX RPM signal (simulated Crank Sensor signal)
or the TCM uses the Crank Postion Sensor signal to
calculate engine RPM depending on the engine
application. The signal supplied by the PCM and
uses a dedicated circuit is called the EATX RPM
Signal circuit. The Crank Position Sensor signal is
a spliced circuit from the engine Crank Position
Sensor. If the TCM interprets this signal to be out of
range when the engine is running (as reported by
the PCM over the bus) the code is set.
Transmission Effects:The MIL illuminates and
the transmission system defaults to Relay Open
limp-in mode.
Possible causes:
> Open or short in EATX RPM Signal circuit. (3.5L)
> Open or short in Crank Position Sensor Signal
circuit. (3.3L/3.8L)
> Open or short in Crank Position Sensor ground
circuit. (3.3L/3.8L)
> TCM and/or PCM connector problems
> TCM
> PCMName of code:P0716(19) - Bus Communication
with Engine Module
When monitored:Continuously with key on.
Set condition:If no PCI bus messages are received
from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for 10
seconds.
Theory of operation:The TCM communicates
with the PCM using the PCI bus. It relies on certain
information to function properly. The TCM contin-
uously monitors the PCI bus to check for messages
broadcast from the PCM.
Transmission Effects:Delayed 3-4 shifts. No
EMCC and early 3-4 shifts for a few minutes after
engine is started.
Possible causes:
> Open or shorted PCI bus circuit
> TCM
> PCM
Name of code:P1765(20) - Switched Battery
When monitored:Ignition key is turned from off
position to run position and/or ignition key is
turned from crank position to run position.
Set condition:This code is set if the Transmission
Control Module (TCM) senses voltage on any of the
pressure switch inputs prior to the TCM energizing
the relay.
Theory of operation:The transmission control
relay is used to supply power to the solenoid pack
when the transmission is in normal operating
mode. When the relay is off, no power is supplied to
the solenoid pack and the transmission is in a
limp-in mode. The relay output is fed back to the
TCM through pins 16 and 17. It is referred to as the
Trans Relay Output circuit or a switched battery.
Immediately after a controller reset (ignition key
turned to the run position or after cranking engine),
the TCM verifies that the relay contacts are open by
checking for no voltage at the switched battery
terminals. After this is verified, the voltage at the
Solenoid Pack pressure switches is checked. There
should be no voltage on the pressure switches at
this time. The TCM will then activate the relay.
Transmission Effects:The MIL illuminates and
the transmission system defaults to Relay Open
limp-in mode.
Possible causes:
> Short to battery on one or more pressure switch
sense circuits
> TCM connector problems
> TCM
