2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 engine

Theory of Operation
The Governor Pressure Sensor is used by the ECM to adjust the Governor Pressure to a desired level for shifts in
first, second, and third gear. If the ECM detects the monitored sense voltage is greater than or less than a prede-
termined specification, the ECM will set the desired DTC.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on and the engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the monitored voltage from the Governor Pressure Sensor drops below 0.12 volts for the
period of 8.5 seconds.
Possible Causes
PARK NEUTRAL DTC PRESENT OR OTHER TRANSMISSION DTC’S PRESENT
(T38) GOVERNOR PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
(T38) GOVERNOR PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO OTHER CIRCUITS
TRANSMISSION SOLENOID ASSEMBLY
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SENSOR

Theory of Operation
The Transmission Control Output from the Totally Integrated Power Module(TIPM) supplies power to the TCC,
Overdrive, and Governor Pressure Solenoids when in normal operating mode. The Transmission Control circuit is
constantly monitored by the ECM. If the expected state of the TransmissionControl circuit is different then the
expected state, a corresponding DTC will set and the ECM will de-energize the Transmission Control and place the
transmission in Limp-in.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the Ignition on.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the ECM monitored voltage of the Transmission Control Relay Control circuit is different
than the expected voltage for the period 3.0 seconds.

Theory of Operation
The 3-4 Solenoid is used the engage the gear change form 3rd gear to 4th gear.
The solenoids used in transmission applications are attached to valves which can be classified as normally open or
normally closed. The normally open solenoid valve is defined as a valve which allows hydraulic flow when no cur-
rent or voltage is applied to the solenoid. The normally closed solenoid valve is defined as a valve which does not
allow hydraulic flow when no current or voltage is applied to the solenoid.These valves perform hydraulic control
functions for the transmission and must therefore be durable and tolerantof dirt particles. For these reasons, the
valves have hardened steel poppets and ball valves. The solenoids operatethe valves directly, which means that
the solenoids must have very high outputs to close the valves against the sizable flow areas and line pressures
found in current transmissions. Fastresponse time is also necessary to ensure accurate control.
When Monitored:
Continuously with ignition on.
Set Condition:
This code will set if the voltage detected on the 3-4 Shift Solenoid Controlcircuit at the ECM is different then
the expected voltage. Note: To clear this DTC it is necessary to drive the vehicle at a sustained speed which
would allow the TCC and/or Overdrive Clutch to operate
