3. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the scan tool to the data link connector
(DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the scan
tool menu. If the scan tool does not communicate with the vehicle: 1. Check that the program card is correctly installed.
2. Check the connections to the vehicle.
3. Check the ignition switch position.
4. If the scan tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the scan tool Manual.
5. Carry out the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If the scan tool responds with: 1. CKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418-00.
2. NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for the anti- lock brake control module, Go To Pinpoint Test A .

Component Tests
Steering Linkage
1. NOTE: Excessive vertical motion of the studs relative to the sockets may indicate excessive
wear.
With the parking brake applied, perform the following:
zHave an assistant rotate the steering wheel back and forth 360 degrees and watch for
relative motion of the studs in the tie- rod end ball sockets.
z Watch for loose steering gear mounting.
2. Another method is to raise the front wheels (1007) off the ground, grasp the wheel at the front and rear and watch for excessive play or binding in the joints while trying to steer the wheels.
3. Install new steering components as necessary. For additional information, refer to the appropriate Group 2 steering section.
Turning Effort Test
NOTE: Make sure that the front wheels are properly aligned and the tire pressure is correct before
checking the effort.
1. Park the vehicle on dry concrete and set the parking brake.
2. Insert a thermometer into the power steering pump reservoir.
3. CAUTION: Do not hold the steering wheel against the stops for more than three to
five seconds at a time. Damage to the power steering pump will occur.
Idle the engine for two to three minutes. Turn the steering wheel from stop- to-stop several times
to warm the fluid to 50- 60°C (122-140°F).
4. With the engine running, attach special tool 211- 034 (T74P-3504-Y) to the rim of the steering
wheel.
5. Measure the pull required to turn the steering wheel one complete revolution in each direction. Refer to Steering Wheel Turning Effort under General Specifications in this section.
Pump Flow and Pressure Test WARNING: Do not touch the flowmeter during the test procedure, or severe burns and
serious injury may occur.
1. CAUTION: Make sure that the connection point will not interfere with any of the
engine accessory drive components or drive belts.
Install special tool 211- F001 (014-00207) at the high pressure port of the power steering pump.
Make sure the power steering analyzer gate valve is fully open. Klj . 8 ba

z
On some vehicles, the power steering pump high pressure port is inaccessible and the
special tool should then be installed either at the steering gear or at a point in the high
pressure line between the power steering pump and the steering gear.
2. Place a dial thermometer in the power steering pump reservoir.
3. Check the power steering fluid level. If necessary, add power steering fluid. zUse Motorcraft MERCON® Multi-Purpose ATF XT -2-QDX or MERCON® equivalent.
4. Install a digital tachometer.
5. CAUTION: Do not hold the steering wheel against the stops for more than three to
five seconds at a time. Damage to the power steering pump will occur.
Start the engine. Place the transmission in neutral. Set the parking brake. Raise the power
steering fluid temperature to 74- 80°C (165-175°F) by rotating the steering wheel fully to the left
and right several times.
6. Set the engine speed to 1500 rpm. Record the flow rate and pressure readings. zIf the flow rate is below the flow rate specification, a new power steering pump may need
to be installed. Continue with the test procedure.
z If the pressure reading is above the maximum pressure specification, then check power
steering hoses for kinks and restrictions.
7. Partially close the gate valve to obtain 750 psi. Set the engine speed at idle. Record the flow rate.
zIf the flow is less than the specified flow rate, then install a new power steering pump. For
additional information, refer to Section 211 - 02 .
8. CAUTION: Do not allow the gate valve to remain closed for more than 5 seconds.
Completely close and partially open the gate valve 3 times. Record the pressure relief valve
actuation pressure reading. zIf the pressure does not meet the relief pressure specification, install a new power
steering pump. For additional information, refer to Section 211 - 02 .
9. Set engine speed to 1500 rpm. Record the flow rate. zIf the flow rate varies more than 3.785 liters/minute (1 gallon/minute) from the initial flow
rate reading, install a new power steering pump. For additional information, refer to
Section 211 - 02 .
10. CAUTION: Do not hold the steering wheel against the stops for more than three to
five seconds at a time. Damage to the power steering pump will occur.
Set the engine speed at idle. Turn (or have an assistant turn) the steering wheel to the left and
right stops. Record flow rate and pressure readings at the stops.
zThe pressure reading at both stops should be nearly the same as the maximum pump
relief pressure.
z The flow rate should drop below 1.9 liters/minute (0.5 gallons/minute).
z If the pressure does not reach the maximum pump relief pressure or the flow rate does
not drop below the specified value, excessive internal leakage is occurring. Install a new
steering gear as necessary. For additional information, refer to Section 211 - 02 . Klj . 9 ba

The TCC solenoid is used to control the apply and release of the TCC.
Shift Solenoid —
SSA, SSB
Two on/off shift solenoids provide gear selection of first through fourth gears by controlling the
pressure to the three shift valves. One unit containing the two shift solenoids is located in the main
control valve body. The shift solenoids are two- way, normally open style.
a When a manual pull- in occurs above a calibrated speed, the transmission will not downshift from the
higher gear until the vehicle speed drops below this calibrated speed.
EC = Electronically Controlled
HD = Hydraulically Disabled
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is located on the lead frame assembly near the shift
solenoids on the main control valve body. It is a temperature- sensitive device called a thermistor. It
sends a voltage signal to the PCM. The voltage signal varies with transmission fluid temperature. The
PCM uses this signal to determine whether a cold start shift schedule is necessary. The shift schedule
is compensated when the transmission fluid temperature is cold. The PCM also inhibits (TCC)
operation at low transmission fluid temperatures and corrects electronic pressure control.
Vehicle Speed (VSS) Sensor
The source of vehicle speed (VSS) is model dependent. Possible sources of vehicle speed input are
anti- lock brake sensor (ABS), a gear- driven vehicle speed sensor (VSS), or an output shaft speed
sensor (OSS). The VSS signal is either an A/C signal whose frequency changes with speed, or an
SCP data message depending on the source. Some applications will have both. The vehicle speed
signal is an input to various vehicle subsystems such as the powertrain control module (PCM),
instrument cluster (speedometer and odometer), speed control system, etc. The vehicle speed source
must be operational to enter output state control (OSC) mode for diagnostics.
Regardless of the type of vehicle speed system, the PCM always uses the OSS for transmission and Solenoid Operation Chart Selector Lever Position PCM Commanded Gear Solenoids
