1NOTE: Low fluid level can be the cause of many Transmission problems. If
the fluid level is low locate and repair the leak then check and adjust the
fluid level per the Service Information.
NOTE: Always perform diagnostics with a fully charged battery to avoid
false symptoms.
With the DRBIIIt, read the engine DTC's. Check and repair all engine DTC's prior
to performing Transmission Symptom Diagnostics.
With the DRBIIIt, read Transmission DTC's. Record all DTC's and 1 Trip Failures.
NOTE: Diagnose 1 Trip Failures as a fully matured DTC.
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
Repair as necessary.
Perform the Shift Lever Position Test. If the test does not pass, refer to Symptom test
for P0705 Check Shifter Signal.
For Gear Ratio DTC's, check and record all CVI's.
Most DTC's set on start up but some must be set by driving the vehicle such that all
diagnostic monitors have run.
NOTE: Verify flash level of Transmission Control Module. Some problems
are corrected by software upgrades to the Transmission Control Module.
NOTE: Check for applicable TSB's related to the symptom.
Perform this procedure prior to Symptom diagnosis.All

Symptom:
P1793-TRD LINK COMMUNICATION ERROR
When Monitored and Set Condition:
P1793-TRD LINK COMMUNICATION ERROR
When Monitored: The transmission controller pulses the 12 volt TRD signal from the
PCM to ground, during torque managed shifts with the throttle angle above 54 degrees.
The TRD system is also tested whenever the vehicle is stopped and the engine speed is at
idle.
Set Condition: This code is set when the Transmission Control Module (TCM) sends two
subsequent torque reduction messages to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) via the
TRD link circuit and does not receive a confirmation from the PCM over the communica-
tion bus.
