Diagnostic Fault Information
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The clutch pressure control (PC) solenoid 5 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable parts. The normally low PC
solenoid 5 regulates and directs oil pressure to the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve and 1-2-3-4 clutch boost valve. Increasing PC solenoid 5 pressure
increases pressure to the 1-2-3-4 clutch. The TCM varies the current to the PC solenoid 5 through a low side driver. Increasing the current to PC
solenoid 5 increases oil pressure by closing OFF the solenoid exhaust port. Decreasing the current to PC solenoid 5 decreases oil pressure by
opening the exhaust port. PC solenoid 5 power is supplied by the TCM through a high side driver (HSD). The HSD protects the circuit and
components from excessive current flow. If excessive current flow is detected, the HSD will turn OFF. When the fault is corrected, the HSD will
reset.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P2728, P2729, or P2730
* DTCs P2728, P2729, or P2730 have not set this ignition.
* The ignition voltage is 8.6 volts or greater.
* The engine speed is 400 RPM or greater for 5 seconds.
* The clutch PC solenoid 5 is commanded ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P2728
The TCM detects an internal electrical performance malfunction of the clutch PC solenoid 5 control circuit where the measured clutch PC solenoid
5 current does not equal the commanded clutch PC solenoid 5 current for 5 seconds.
P2729
The TCM detects a short to ground on the clutch PC solenoid 5 control circuit for 1 second.
P2730
The TCM detects an open or short to voltage on the clutch PC solenoid 5 control circuit for 1 second.
