*TOW /HAUL OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH (DIESEL)
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W

Theory of Operation
The tow/haul overdrive OFF (control) switch is located in the shift lever arm. The switch is a momentary contact
device that signals the ECM/PCM to toggle current status of the overdrive function. At ignition on, overdrive oper-
ation is allowed. Pressing the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch once causes the Tow/haul Overdrive OFF mode to be
entered and the Tow/Haul lamp to be illuminated. Pressing the switch a second time causes normal overdrive oper-
ationtoberestoredandtheTow/haullamptobeturnedoff.TheTow/haulOverdrive OFF mode defaults to ON after
the ignition switch is cycled OFF and ON. The normal position for the control switch is the ON position. The switch
must be in this position to energize the solenoid and allow a 3-4 upshift. The control switch indicator light illuminates
only when the Tow/haul Overdrive Off switch is turned to the OFF position, or when illuminated by the transmission
control module.

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
Diagnostic Test
1.TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the ECM C2 harness connector.
Disconnect the Tow/Haul OverdriveOff switch harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the Tow/Haul Overdrive
Off switch sense circuit in the ECM C2 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Ye s>>
Repair the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch sense circuit for a
short to ground.
Perform RE TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST VER -
1 (DIESEL). (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/
AUTOMATIC - 48RE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
No>>

2.CHECK THE TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH
Reconnect the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the O/D Tow/Haul Switch
Sense circuit in the ECM C2 harness connector.
Press the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch button.
Does the resistance change from above 5.0 ohms to below 5.0
ohms while pressing the Tow/Haul Overdrive Off switch but-
ton?
Ye s>>
Using the schematics as a guide, check the Engine Control
Module (ECM) pins, terminals, and connectors for corrosion,
damage, or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to all
power and ground circuits. If no problems are found,
replace and program the ECM per the Service Information.

DIRECT DRIVE POWERFLOW
The vehicle has accelerated and reached the shift point for the 2-3 upshiftinto direct drive. When the shift takes
place, the front band is released, and the front clutch is applied (1, 9). The rear clutch stays applied (4, 8) as it has
been in all the forward gears. With the front clutch now applied, engine torque is now on the front clutch retainer,
which is locked to the sun gear drivingshell. This means that the sun gear isnow turning in engine rotation (clock-
wise) and at engine speed. The rear clutch is still applied so engine torque(6, 10) is also still on the front annulus
gear. If two members of the same planetary set are driven, direct drive results. Therefore, when two members are
rotating at the same speed and in the same direction, it is the same as being locked up. The rear planetary set is
also locked up, given the sun gear is still the input, and the rear annulus gear must turn with the output shaft (3, 5).
Both gears are turning in the same direction and at the same speed. The frontand rear planet pinions do not turn
at all in direct drive. The only rotation is the input from the engine to the connected parts, which are acting as one
common unit, to the output shaft.
FOURTHGEARPOWERFLOW
Fourth gear overdrive range is electronically controlled and hydraulically activated. Various sensor inputs are sup-
plied to the powertrain control module to operate the overdrive solenoid on the valve body. The solenoid contains a
check ball that opens and closes a vent port in the 3-4 shift valve feed passage. The overdrive solenoid (and check
ball) are not energized in first, second, third, or reverse gear. The vent port remains open, diverting line pressure
from the 2-3 shift valve away from the 3-4 shift valve. The Tow/Haul controlswitch must be in the ON position to
transmit overdrive status to the PCM. A 3-4 upshift occurs only when the overdrive solenoid is energized by the
PCM. The PCM energizes the overdrive solenoid during the 3-4 upshift. Thiscauses the solenoid check ball to close
the vent port allowing line pressure from the 2-3 shift valve to act directly on the 3-4 upshift valve. Line pressure on
the 3-4 shift valve overcomes valve spring pressure moving the valve to theupshift position. This action exposes
the feed passages to the 3-4 timing valve, 3-4 quick fill valve, 3-4 accumulator, and ultimately to the overdrive pis-
ton. Line pressure through the timing valve moves the overdrive piston into contact with the overdrive clutch. The
direct clutch is disengaged before the overdrive clutch is engaged. The boost valve provides increased fluid apply
