P1740-TCC O/D SOL PERFORMANCE (DIESEL)
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W
Theory of Operation
The Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Solenoid is used to engage the TCC which improves fuel economy.
When Monitored:
The Torque Convertor Clutch (TCC) and Overdrive Clutch (O/D) will be tested each time the ECM requests
TCC engagement in 3rd gear and O/D.
Set Condition:
The DTC will set if the expected RPM drop is not achieved while attempting toengage TCC or O/D. This
indicates a malfunctioning torqueconvertor or overdrive clutch.
Possible Causes
ENGINE DTCS PRESENT
TRANSMISSION DTCS PRESENT
TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE TOO COLD
OIL PAN CONTAINS EXCESSIVE DEBRIS
3-4 SHIFT SOLENOID
SHAFT OR SEAL DAMAGE
TCC SOLENOID
TORQUE CONVERTER
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMIS-
