6.CHECK TO SEE IF DTC P1736 IS CURRENT
With the scan tool, perform the 2nd Prime Gear Clutch Test. Follow the instructions on the scan tool.
Increase the throttle angle, TPS Degree, to 30° for no more than a few seconds.
CAUTION: Do not overheat the transmission.
NOTE: If the 4C clutch is faulty, the overrunning clutch will hold and the slip test will pass. The 2nd Prime
Gear Clutch Test will not detect a faulty 4C clutch. However, it will detectafaultyUDclutch.
Did the clutch test pass, did the Input Speed remain at zero?
