2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 sensor

Theory of Operation
The Governor Pressure Control System is used to regulate the governor pressure which controls the shifts for first,
second, and third gear. The Governor Pressure Control System test verifies that the requested pressure and the
actual pressure are within a predetermined tolerance.
When Monitored:
While driving and the commanded governor pressure is equal to the pressurerequired for third gear.
Set Condition:
If the governor pressure sensor output is less than 407 kPa (60 psi) or greater than 621 kPa (80 psi) when the
requested pressure is 407 - 621 kPa (60 - 80 psi) for 2.2 seconds. This DTC will set if there are two trips of
five consecutive bad 2.2 second tests with the transmission oil temperature between 23.5 - 88° C (74 - 190°
F).
