2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 automatic transmission

P0740-TCC OUT OF RANGE
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W
When Monitored:
During Electronically Modulated Converter Clutch (EMCC) Operation.
Set Condition:
Transmission must be in EMCC, with input speed greater than 1750 RPM. TCC-LR Solenoid achieves the
maximum duty cycle and can not pull engine speed within 60 RPM of input speed. Also when the transmission
is in FEMCC and the engine slips TCC less than 100 RPM for 10 seconds. This DTCcantakeuptofive
minutes of problem identification before illuminating the MIL.

Always perform the 45RFE/545RFE Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure before proceeding. (Refer to
21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
Theory of Operation
When in 2nd, 2nd Prime, 3rd, 4th or 5th gear, the torque converter clutch (TCC) can be engaged when certain
conditions are met. The TCC piston is electronically modulated by increasing the duty cycle of the LR Solenoid until
the torque converter slip difference (difference between engine and transmission input speed) is within 60 RPM.
Then the LR solenoid is fully energized(FEMCC – 100% duty cycle). Torque converter slip is monitored in FEMCC
to ensure adequate clutch capacity.

Go To 2
2.CHECK IF DTC P0740 IS CURRENT
With the scan tool, Read and RECORD ALL Transmission DTC’s. After recording DTCs, erase DTCs.
Drive the vehicle until the transmission temperature is at least 43° C or 110° F and the engine temperature at least
49° C or 120° F.
Perform the following steps 3 times.
Drive the vehicle to the speed of at least 88 Kmh or 55 mph.
Allow 4th or 5th gear to engage for at least 10 seconds.
Close the throttle.
Tip back into the throttle until the TPS angle is between 25 and 29 degrees.
NOTE: If the throttle angle goes over 30 degrees, you must close the throttleandtryagain.
Did the TCC engage during any of the attempts, Engine speed approximately equal to input speed?

5.CHECK THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND/OR INTERNAL TRANSMISSION
Repair internal transmission as necessary.
Check for the following possible causes. Refer to the Service informationfor the proper repair procedures.
Inspect the Transmission Oil Pump and Valve Body.
If no problems are found, replace the Transmission Solenoid/TRS Assembly.
Check the Torque Converter Switch Valve and the Torque Converter Clutch Control Valve for sticking in the bore.
Check the Teflon seal rings on the input shaft. Note: If one of the seal ringsis , the loose piece will often lodge in
the TCC switch valve, causing it to stick in it bore.

In all cases, replace the Torque Converter. Make sure to check all other possible causes in addition to
the Torque Converter.

SION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)

When Monitored:
Initially at power-up, then every 10 seconds thereafter. The solenoid circuits will also be tested immediately
after a gear ratio or pressure switch error is detected.
Set Condition:
After three consecutive solenoid continuity test failures, or one failure if test is run in response to a gear ratio
or pressure switch error.Note: This DTC is strictly an electrical fault and does not apply to any internal
transmission failures.

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 Control System uses six electronically controlled solenoids that allow hydraulic fluid to be applied
to various friction elements (clutches), which enables the gear requested. The continuity of each solenoid circuit is
periodically tested. Each inactive solenoid is turned on for a few milliseconds, then off. Each active solenoid is
turned off for a few milliseconds, then on. This pulsing of voltage to the solenoid causes an inductive spike which
can be sensed by the Transmission Control System. If an inductive spike is not sensed by the Transmission Control
System during the continuity check, it is tested again. If the test fails three consecutive times, the appropriate Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set. If the solenoid test is run in response to agear ratio or pressure switch error, one
failure will result in setting the appropriate DTC.Note: This DTC is strictly an electrical fault and does not apply
to any internal transmission failures.
