Symptom:
P1789-2-4/OD HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST FAILURE
When Monitored and Set Condition:
P1789-2-4/OD HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST FAILURE
When Monitored: In any forward gear with engine speed above 1000 RPM shortly after
a shift and every minute thereafter.
Set Condition: After a shift into a forward gear, with engine speed > 1000 RPM, the TCM
momentarily turns on element pressure to the clutch ckts that don't have pressure to
identify the correct pressure sw closes. If the pressure sw does not close 2 times the code
sets.
