DTC P0742 Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) System Stuck On
D07R200008
Circuit Description
The PCM energizes the TCC solenoid by creating an
ignition voltage on circuit BRN/BLU. When ignition
voltage is energized by the PCM, the TCC solenoid stops
converter signal oil from exhausting. This causes
converter signal oil pressure to increase and move the
TCC valve. The TCC solenoid will deenergize when the
PCM no longer provides ignition voltage. When the TCC
solenoid is deenergized, it will exhaust fluid and release
the TCC.
This DTC detects low torque converter slip when the TCC
is commanded ªoffº. This is a type ªBº DTC.
Conditions For Setting The DTC
The following conditions occur once per TCC cycle, three
consecutive times:
No TPS DTCs P0122 or P0123.
No OSS DTCs P0722 or P0723.
No TCC solenoid DTC P1860.
TP angle is greater than 20%.
Engine speed is greater than 500 rpm and less than
3,000 rpm.
Engine vacuum is between 0 and 70 kPa.
Commanded gear is not 1st.
Gear range is D4.
TCC is commanded ªoffº.
No TCC Stuck off DTC P1870.TCC slip speed is between ±20 and 40 rpm for 2
seconds.
Vehicle speed is greater than 25 km/h (15 mph) and
less than 120 km/h (75 mph).
Speed ratio is greater than 0.9 and less than 2.0.
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
For lamp illuminate refer to DTC type definition (type
B).
Inhibit TCC engagement.
Conditions For Clearing The MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn off the MIL and CHECK TRANS
Lamp after three consecutive ignition cycles without a
failure reported.
The DTC can be cleared from the PCM history by
using a scan tool.
The DTC will be cleared from history when the vehicle
has achieved 40 warmup cycles without a failure
reported.
The PCM will cancel the DTC default actions when
the fault no longer exists and the ignition is cycled ªoffº
long enough to power down the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids
If the TCC is mechanically stuck ªonº with the parking
brake applied and any gear range selected, the TCC
fluid will mechanically apply the TCC, possibly
causing an engine stall.
Test Description
The number below refers to the step number on the
diagnostic chart:
3. This test checks the mechanical state of the TCC.
(When the PCM commands the TCC solenoid ªoffº,
the slip speed should increase).

DTC P1860 TCC PWM Solenoid Electrical
D07R200011
Circuit Description
The PCM allows current to flow through the solenoid coil
according to the duty cycle (percentage of ªonº and ªoffº
time). This current flow through the solenoid coil creates
a magnetic field that magnetizes the solid core. The
magnetized core attracts the check ball to seat against
spring pressure. This blocks the exhaust for the TCC
signal fluid and allows 2±3 drive fluid to feed to TCC signal
circuit.The TCC signal fluid pressure acts on the TCC
regulator valve to regulate line pressure and to apply fluid
pressure to the torque converter clutch shift control valve.
When the TCC shift valve is in the apply position,
regulated apply fluid pressure is directed through the TCC
valve to apply the torque converter clutch. The TCC
PWM solenoid is used in conjunction with the TCC PWM
solenoid to regulate fluid to the torque converter. The
TCC PWM solenoid is attached to the valve body within
the transmission.
This DTC detects a continuous open or short to ground or
ignition in the TCC circuit or the TCC PWM solenoid. This
is a type ªBº DTC.
Conditions For Setting The DTC
Battery voltage is between 10 and 16 volts.
No shift solenoid A DTCs P0751 or P0752 or P0753.
No shift solenoid B DTCs P0756 or P0757 or P0758.
Ignition is ªonº, Engine ªrunº.
The PCM commands the solenoid ªonº and the
voltage remains low (zero volts).
The PCM commands the solenoid ªoffº and the
voltage remains high (B+).
All conditions met for 0.875 ~ 1.25 seconds.
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
Inhibit TCC engagement.For lamp illuminate refer to
DTC type definition (type
B).
Conditions For Clearing The MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn off the MIL and CHECK TRANS
Lamp after three consecutive ignition cycles without a
failure reported.
The DTC can be cleared from the PCM history by
using a scan tool.
The DTC will be cleared from history when the vehicle
has achieved 40 warmup cycles without a failure
reported.
The PCM will cancel the DTC default actions when
the fault no longer exists and the ignition is cycled ªoffº
long enough to power down the PCM.
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at
the PCM and at the transmission connector. Look for
possible bent, backed out, deformed or damaged
terminals. Check for weak terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.
When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the
diagnostic chart
:
3. This test checks for voltage to the solenoid.
4. This test checks the ability of the PCM and wiring to
control the ignition circuit.
9. This test checks the resistance of the TCC solenoid
and the internal wiring harness.

Anti-Theft System
General Description
The circuit consists of the starter switch, anti±theft &
keyless entry controller, anti±theft horn, front door and
tailgate key switch (detect and tamper) switch, door lock
actuator for each door, engine hood switch, clutch start
switch (M/T), ANTI±THEFT indicator light and mode
switch (A/T).
The system operates as follows: After locking the starter
switch and removing the starter key (this sets the alarm),
if the door is unlocked in any way other than with the
proper key, the headlights will start flashing, the horn
sounds, and the starter circuit is disabled. (However, the
engine hood and all the doors must be locked and closed.)
Once the system has been placed in the warning or alarm
condition, it can be released only when the starter switch
is shifted from ªOFFº to ªACCº by the starter key, or when
the lock of the front door or the tailgate is released (to
activate the detect switch) by the starter key.

2 . RESUME/ACCEL Switch Function
1.Resume Function: When the RESUME, ACCEL
switch is turned on/off after the system is temporarily
deactivated by pressing the brake or clutch pedal
while the vehicle is running, the vehicle resumes, the
speed stored before the system was released.
2.Accelerate Function: When the RESUME/ACCEL
switch is kept on after the system is released
completely, the vehicle accelerates its speed during
that time. The vehicle speed at which the vehicle was
running when the switch was turned off is stored in the
memory, and the vehicle automatically returns to this
speed.
3.Tap±Up Function: When the RESUME/ACCEL
switch is turned on and off instantaneously while the
vehicle is running, the vehicle accelerates a mile for
each on/off operation. The vehicle speed at which the
vehicle was running when the switch was turned off
last is stored in the memory, and the vehicle
automatically returns to this stored speed.
3 . CANCEL Function
1.Temporary Cancellation:
When the cancel switch is turned on.
When the brake pedal is pressed.
When the clutch pedal is pressed. (M/T)
