10.3 Tachometer Diagnostics
Circuit Description
The powertrain interface module (PIM) receives the tachomer signal from the engine control module (ECM), it is then
sent to the instrument cluster by the PIM via a hard wired connection to drive the tachometer which displays the engine
RPM. Some of these components do not set a DTC, in the event of a component failure. The following diagnostic
procedures are devised to assist in these cases.
Additional Information
• Refer to 7.2 Diagnostic System Check to monitor DTC’s.
• Refer to 8A Electrical Body and Chassis for the following information:
• ECM wiring diagram.
• Refer to 6 W iring Diagram and Connector Chart for the following information:
• PIM connector illustration and terminal assignment, and
• PIM wiring diagram.
• For intermittent faults, refer to Intermittent Fault Conditions.
• Check for an intermittent fault in the wiring harness or connectors, if a fault cannot be found the system is
serviceable.
Since fault conditions in a wiring connector may trigger DTCs, always test the connectors related to this diagnostic
procedure for shorted terminals or poor wiring connection before replacing any component. Refer to 8A Electrical - Body
and Chassis for information on electrical fault diagnosis.
Test Description
The following numbers refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic table:
1 This step tests for DTC’s in the overall system.

3 Transmission Control Module
Operation Overview
3.1 Transmission Control Module
W ith the introduction of the new HFV6 engine, the powertrain architecture has been redesigned to accommodate this
introduction. W ith this design, a new bus architecture and protocol has also been introduced. The new bus connects the
following modules:
• engine control module (ECM),
• transmission control module (TCM),
• powertrain interface module (PIM) and
• ABS module.
The protocol used to communicate between these modules is called General Motors Local Area Network (GM LAN)
which is based on Controller Area Network (CAN) communication protocol. For further information on GM LAN protocol
and data bus structure, refer to 6E1 Powertrain Interface Module – V6.
Component Location
The TCM (1) is located under the instrument panel, it is attached to a bracket mounted to the firewall as shown in
Figure 7C1 – 2.
For the other components using the GM LAN databus, refer to 6E1 Powertrain Interface Module – V6.
Figure 7C1 – 2
Transmission Control Module Data Transfer
The TCM uses various information to control the shift of the transmission. Besides the direct inputs from the various
transmission sensors directly into the TCM, the TCM uses data from the GM LAN databus.
The inputs/outputs directly connected to the TCM from the transmission are:
• shift solenoids,
• torque converter clutch control,
• pressure control solenoid,
• transmission fluid temperature sensor and
• vehicle speed sensor.
Refer to 3.2 TCM Wiring Diagrams.
The transmission also receives inputs from the park/neutral position and back up lamp switch assembly.
The TCM needs other various data parameters to control the transmission correctly. These include throttle plate angle,
whether cruise control is engaged and active or not, engine RPM etc. These are provided to the TCM from the ECM via
serial data using GM LAN communication protocol.
The TCM also supplies information that is used by other components and systems within the vehicle such as the engine
control module (ECM) and instrument cluster. Any information that is required on the body side of the data bus (UART
protocol) is translated by the powertrain interface module (PIM). For further information on the data bus structure, the
PIM and its operation, refer to 6E1 Powertrain Interface Module – V6.

Automatic Transmission – 4L60E – General Information Page 7C1–10
Transmission Control Module Operation
The TCM processes data every 10 milliseconds from various sensors, such as throttle position, vehicle speed, gear
range, temperature, engine load and other inputs. The TCM compares all its various inputs with the internal programming
and calibration of the TCM using this data, a signal is transmitted to the valve body shift solenoids, which activate the
shift valves for precise shift control. Shift points are therefore precisely controlled and are identical from vehicle to vehic le.
The TCM also control torque converter clutch apply and release.
Shift feel is also electronically controlled by the TCM, by signals sent to the variable force solenoid, which controls fluid
line pressure and it is this pressure that precisely determines how the shifts will feel. In this way, the TCM electronically
synchronises the engine and transmission into a single integrated powertrain system for optimum performance, shift
timing, fuel efficiency and emission control.
3.2 TCM Wiring Diagrams
For details of the transmission control module (TCM) wiring diagrams, refer to 8A Electrical-Body and Chassis.
