TFP Gear: This parameter displays Park/Neutral, Reverse , Drive4 , Drive3 , Drive2 , Drive1 or Invalid . This parameter
is the decoded status of the three A/B/C inputs from the automatic transmission fluid pressure manual valve position
switch. If a valid combination of inputs is not detected, invalid will be displayed.
TFP Swi A/B/C: This parameter displays Open 12 V / Closed 0 V for each switch. This parameter indicates the statues
of the three inputs from the automatic transmission fluid pressure manual valve position switch assembly.
Throttle Position: This parameter displays a calculated value, which is determined by the accelerator pedal position and
the actual throttle position, used to optimise transmission controls. It represents the driver’s intended requested for
torque or acceleration. The range is 0-100%, 0% represents an idle or coast request and 100% represents a request for
wide open throttle (WOT).
Torque Converter Efficiency: This parameter displays a ratio of 0.00:1 to 2:1. The ratio is calculates by multiplying the
speed ratio by a value related to the ‘K factor’ of the torque converter. The ‘K factor’ is the looseness or tightness of the
torque converter for a given torque. The nearer the torque converter is to full coupling, i.e. 1:1, the closer the torque
converter efficiency number will be to 1.
TR Switch A/B/C/P: This parameter displays the status of the four inputs from the transmission range switch. Tech 2
displays Open 12V / Closed 0 V . Open 12 V indicates an ignition voltage input to the control module. Closed 0 V
indicates a zero voltage input to the control module.
Transmission Fluid Temperature: This parameter displays the input signal of the transmission fluid temperature sensor.
Transmission fluid temperature is high, 151°C, when signal voltage is low, 0 V. Transmission fluid temperature is low, -
40°C, when signal voltage is high, 5 V.
Transmission Hot Mode: This parameter displays the automatic transmission fluid temperature (TFT) and displays On
or Off . Off indicates the TFT has not exceeded 130°C. On indicates the TFT has exceeded 130°C and has not cooled to
120°C for greater than 5 seconds. These numbers are approximate and differ with transmissions.
Vehicle Speed: This parameter displays the speed at which the vehicle is travelling. Tech 2 displays vehicle speed as
kilometres per hour (km/h). The vehicle speed is calculates based on the input signal from the automatic transmission
output shaft speed sensor.
3.4 Miscellaneous Tests

Miscellaneous Tests Description
Shift Solenoid A •
The TCM commands the 1-2 shift solenoid valve on and off. Tech 2’s Shift Solenoid A
Parameter should match the commanded state. Tech 2’s Commanded Gear
parameter should correspond with the shift solenoid combination. Refer to
5.6 Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio.
• When the ignition is on, and the engine is off, there no limits to this control. The
solenoid remains on until commanded off, and vice versa. W hen the test is exited, the
solenoid state is determined by the TCM.
• W hen the engine is running, the following control limits apply:
• Only sequential gear changes are allowed. For example, 1
st to 3rd is not allowed.
If a non-sequential gear change is attempted, the message Non-sequential
gear changes not allowed . Gear changes must be made in order appears
on Tech 2.
• The vehicle speed must be below a calibrated value. If the vehicle speed is too

7 Ensure that all wiring harness connectors are fitted correctly and secure.
8 W hen steam or pressure cleaning vehicle components, such as engines, transmissions, etc., do not direct the cleaning nozzle at any system electrical wiring harness connectors or components.
9 Do not clear any DTCs unless instructed.
10 The fault must be present when using the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Diagnostic Tables. Otherwise, misdiagnosis or replacement of good parts may occur.
11 Do not touch any electronic control module connector pins or soldered components on the circuit board. This is required to avoid the possibility of electrostatic discharge damage.
12 Use only the test equipment specified in the diagnostic tables, as other test equipment may give incorrect results or damage good components.
13 Electronic control modules are designed to withstand normal current draws associated with vehicle operation. However, the following fault conditions or incorrect test procedure may overload internal control module circuits and
irreparably damage the control module:
• A short to voltage fault condition in any of the control module low reference circuits may cause internal and/or
sensor damage. Therefore, any short to voltage fault condition in the control module low reference circuits
must be rectified before replacing a faulty component.
• A short to ground fault condition in any of the control module 5 volts reference circuits may cause internal
control module and/or sensor damage. Therefore, any short to ground fault condition in the control module 5
volt reference circuits must be rectified before replacing a faulty component.
• W hen using a test light to test an electrical circuit, do not use any of the control module low reference circuits
or 5 volts reference circuits as a reference point. Otherwise, excessive current draw from the test light may
damage the control module.
14 Disregard DTCs that set while performing the following diagnostic Steps:
• Using the Tech 2 output control function, or
• Disconnecting a control module system sensor connector then switching the ignition ON.
15 After completing the required diagnostics and service operations, road test the vehicle to ensure correct system operation.
4.4 Preliminary Checks
The Preliminary Checks is a set of visual and physical checks or inspections that may quickly identify a control module
system fault condition:
1 Refer to relevant Service Techlines for information regarding the fault condition.
2 Ensure that the battery is fully charged.
3 Inspect the battery connections for corrosion or a loose terminal.
4 Ensure that all relevant control module system related fuses are serviceable.
5 Inspect for incorrect aftermarket theft deterrent devices, lights or mobile phone installation.
6 Ensure that there is no speaker magnet positioned too close to any electronic module that contains relays.
7 Inspect the system wiring harness for proper connections, pinches or cuts.
8 Ensure that all control module related electrical wiring connectors are fitted correctly.
9 Inspect the control module ground connections for corrosion, loose terminal or incorrect position.
10 Ensure that the resistance between the control module housing and the battery ground cable is less than 0.5 ohms.
11 Check that the control module and its mounting bracket is secure.
12 Check all control module related components for correct installation.

4.5 Diagnostic Trouble Code Tables
The diagnostic system check and the DTC list, directs the technician to the appropriate diagnostic trouble code (DTC)
tables if there is a DTC currently stored in the TCM.
The diagnostic tables locate a faulty circuit or component through a logic based on the process of elimination. These
diagnostic tables are developed with the following assumptions:
• the vehicle functioned correctly at the time of assembly,
• there are no multiple faults, and
• the problem currently exists.
Understanding and the correct use of the diagnostic tables are essential to reduce diagnostic time and to prevent
misdiagnosis.
Multiple DTCs Fault Condition
Some fault conditions trigger multiple component DTCs even if the fault condition exists only on a single component. If
there are multiple DTCs stored in the TCM, the service technician must view and record all DTCs logged.
Relationship between the logged DTCs can then be analysed to determine the source of the fault condition. Always
begin the diagnostic process with the DTC table of the fault condition that may trigger other DTCs to set.
The following fault conditions may trigger multiple DTCs:
• a fault in the serial data communication circuit,
• a system voltage that is too low may cause incorrect transmission tem operation or transmission component
malfunction,
• a system voltage that is too high may damage the TCM and/or other components,
• fault condition in the TCM Read Only Memory (ROM) or Random Access Memory (RAM),
• fault condition in the TCM internal circuitry or programming, or
• improperly connected sensor or component wiring connector.
If there are no obvious faults to begin a multiple DTC fault condition diagnostic procedure, refer to the Conditions for
Running the DTC in each diagnostic.
4.6 Diagnostic Trouble Code Definitions
The TCM constantly performs self-diagnostic tests on the transmission and it components. W hen the TCM detects a fault
condition in the transmission operating parameters, the TCM sets a DTC to represents that fault condition. The following
are the types of DTCs programmed in the TCM. In addition, DTCs are classified as either Current or History DTC.
• Type A – Emission Related DTCs,
• Type B – Emission Related DTCs, and
• Type C – Non-emission Related DTCs.
NOTE
Depending on the type of DTC set, the TCM may
command the malfunction indiciator lamp (MIL) to
display on the instrument cluster and warn the
driver there is a fault in the transmission. Refer to
the RA Rodeo Owner Manual for further
information on the MIL.
Type A – Emission Related DTCs
The TCM takes the following action when a Type A DTC runs and fails:
• sets a current Type A DTC that represents the fault condition,
• illuminates the MIL, and

4.13 DTC P0711 to P0713 – Transmission
Fluid Temperature Sensor
DTC Description
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:
• DTC P0711 – Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor Performance,
• DTC P0712 – Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage, and
• DTC P0713 – Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor Circuit High Voltage.
Circuit Description
The automatic transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is part of the automatic transmission fluid pressure (TFP)
manual valve position switch. The automatic TFT sensor is a negative coefficient thermistor. The transmission control
module (TCM) supplies a 5 volt reference signal to the sensor and measures the voltage drop in the circuit. W hen the
transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high and the TCM detects high signal voltage. As the fluid temperature
increases, the resistance of the sensor decreases, which lowers the signal voltage. This diagnostic monitors the TFT
circuit. The circuit may be functional, but not in the normal operating range. This diagnostic indicates stuck, erratic,
intermittent, skewed, or inaccurate values, indicating poor system performance. The TFT range is -40 – 151°C.
Refer to 2 W iring Diagrams and Connector Chart to aid in diagnosis.
Conditions for Running the DTC
DTC P0711
