2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 battery

P0122-TPS/APP CIRCUIT LOW
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
Theory of Operation
Due to the integration of the Powertrain and Transmission Control Modulesthe New Generation Control Module III
will be referred to as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The 3–wire TPS (4.7L V-8 Engine) provides the PCM
with an input signal voltage that represents the throttle blade position of the throttle body. The Throttle Position
Sensor (TPS) is connected to the throttle blade shaft. As the position of the throttle blade changes, the output volt-
age of the TPS changes.
The PCM supplies approximately 5.0 volts to the TPS. The TPS output voltage(input signal to the PCM) represents
the throttle blade position. The PCM receives an input signal voltage fromthe TPS. This will vary in an approximate
range from 0.26 volts at minimum throttle opening (idle), to 4.49 volts at maximum opening (wide open throttle).
The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) is currently used only with the 5.7L V-8 engine. The APPS is a linear
potentiometer. It provides the PCM with a voltage signal proportional to the angle, or position of the accelerator
pedal. The APPS signal along with inputs from other sensors is used by the PCM to calculate the throttle plate
position.
A mechanical cable is used between the accelerator pedal and the APPS assembly. Although a cable is used
between the accelerator pedal and the APPS assembly, a mechanical cable isnot used between the accelerator
pedal and the throttle body. The throttle plate position is electronically controlled by the PCM.
When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on and engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the monitored TPS voltage drops below .078 volts for theperiod of 0.48 seconds.

P0562-BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.

When Monitored:
With the engine running and the PCM has closed the Transmission Control Relay.
Set Condition:
If the battery voltage of the Transmission Output circuit(s) to the PCM is less than 10.0 volts for the period of
15 seconds. Note: P0562 generally indicates a gradually falling battery voltage or a resistive connection(s) to
the PCM. The DTC will also set if the battery voltage sensed at the PCM is lessthan 6.5-volts for 200ms or
where the Transmission Output circuits are less than 7.2-volts for 200ms.
Possible Causes
RELATED CHARGING SYSTEM DTC’S
(Z904, Z908, Z977) GROUND CIRCUITS OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
(T16) TIPM OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE

Theory of Operation
Friction element distress could result from an insufficient supply voltage to properly control the solenoids. To prevent
this possibility, the battery voltage is monitored and the system is placed in logical limp-in if the battery voltage
drops below the limit.
Diagnostic Test

Refer to the Charging System category and repair any Engine Charging System DTCs, before testing
DTC P0562. NOTE: After repairing the Engine Charging System DTC’s, perform the Transmission Ver-
ification test to verify the transmission control systemwas not damaged.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the
PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting
in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller tool #8815 to per-
form diagnosis.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the PCM (Z904,
Z908, Z977) Ground circuits at the appropriate terminals of Miller tool
#8815.
NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the bright-
ness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

cuits?

P0725-ENGINE SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT
For a complete wiring diagramRefer to Section 8W.
When Monitored:
Continuously every 7 msec with the ignition on and engine running.
Set Condition:
This DTC will set when the calculated engine speed is less than 390 RPM with the engine running, or greater
than 8000 RPM, for the period of 2.0 seconds. The PCM will place the Transmission in Limp-in when this DTC
is set.Note: This is not a Transmission Input Speed Sensor DTC.
Possible Causes
RELATED ENGINE DTC’S PRESENT
CRANK POSITION SENSOR OR WIRING
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
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 calculates the engine RPM by directly reading the engine crank position sensor.
It compares the calculated value to the engine speed sensor signal transmitted from the Engine Control System
over the controllers internal BUS. The calculated engine RPM is also comparedtoaminimumandamaximum
value.Note: Due to the integration of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and Transmission Control Mod-
ule (TCM), BUS communication between the modules is internal and unserviceable.
