Rotunda Transmission Tester
The Transmission Tester is used to diagnosis the digital transmission range sensor and is used in
conjunction with the pinpoint tests. The tests should be carried out in order. Installing the Transmission
Tester allows separation of the vehicle electronics from transmission electronics; refer to the
Transmission Tester manual for these tests.

Any time an electrical connector or solenoid body is disconnected, inspect the connector for pin
condition, corrosion and contamination. Also inspect the connector seal for damage. Clean, repair or
install a new connector as required.
Shift Solenoids Pre-Diagnosis
Use the following shift solenoid operation information when carrying out Pinpoint Test A.
a When a manual pull- in occurs above a calibrated speed the transmission will downshift from the
higher gear until the vehicle speed drops below this calibrated speed.
EC = Electronically controlled.
HD = Hydraulically disabled.
