P1684-BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
Whenever the ignition is in the Run/Start position.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set whenever Powertrain Control Module is disconnected fromFused B(+) or ground. It will also
be set using the scan tool to perform a Battery Disconnect and/or Quick Learn procedure.
Possible Causes
BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED
SCAN TOOL BATTERY DISCONNECT PERFORMED
PCM WAS REPLACED OR DISCONNECTED
QUICK LEARN WAS PERFORMED
Always perform the 45RFE/545RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure before proceeding. (Refer to
21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
The PCM uses a battery backed RAM (Random Access Memory) is used to maintainsome learned values. When
the battery B(+) is disconnected, the memory is lost. When the B(+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the
Transmission Control System. The DTC is set and the learned values are initialized to known constants or previ-
ously learned values from EEPROM (Electronic Erasable Programmable ReadOnly Memory). This results in the
reinitialization of some parameters.
Diagnostic Test
1.POSSIBLE CAUSES
This DTC is an informational DTC only.
This DTC is set due to a momentary loss of power and/or the ground circuits tothe PCM.
Below are a list of possible causes associated with this DTC.
Battery was disconnected.
The BATTERY DISCONNECT feature on the scan tool was performed.
The QUICK LEARN feature on the scan tool was performed.
PCM was replaced or disconnected.
Were any of the above possible causes performed?
Ye s>>
This is the cause of the DTC. Erase the DTC and return vehicle to customer.

P1736-GEAR RATIO ERROR IN 2ND PRIME
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on, engine running, with the transmissionin gear.
Set Condition:
If the ratio of the Input RPM to the Output RPM does not match the current gearratio. This DTC can take up
to five minutes of problem identification before illuminating the MIL
Possible Causes

EXTRA CHECK BALL IN PASSAGE DOWNSTREAM OF #7 CHECK BALL POCKET
TRANSMISSION SOLENOID/TRS ASSEMBLY
BROKEN WELD - REACTION CARRIER TO REVERSE SUN GEAR
MISSING TEETH ON INPUT CLUTCH HUB TONE WHEEL
Always perform the 45RFE/545RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure before proceeding. (Refer to
21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
The transmission system uses two speed sensors, one to measure input RPM and one to measure output RPM.
These inputs are essential for proper transmission operation. Therefore, the integrity of this data is verified through
the following checks:
1) When in gear, if the gear ratio does not compare to a known gear ratio, the corresponding in-gear trouble code
is set (DTCs P0731-36).
2) An excessive change in input or output speeds indicating signal intermittent which may result in the DTCs P0715
and/or P0720 to set.
3) If the common speed sensor ground circuit is lost, both sensor inputs will read the signal from the input speed
sensor at idle in neutral. Since the input speed sensor reads 60 teeth from the input clutch hub and the output
speed sensor reads 30 teeth from the park gear, the result is an apparent speed ratio of 1:2 and may cause the
DTC P1794 to set when at a stop.
