10. Ignition ON, test for 11-13 volts between terminal F on the K71 TCM and ground at the transmission case.
瀚慖f not within the specified range, replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.
11. If all circuits test normal, replace the B15 automatic transmission internal mode switch.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
* Control Module References (See: Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning)for control solenoid valve assembly or ECM
replacement, setup, and programming.
Note: If the IMS switch has been replaced, inspect the valve body detent spring to be sure it is centered over the detent lever. This prevents
the detent spring from hitting the IMS switch.
* Manual Shift Shaft Position Switch Replacement (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Sensors and Switches -
Computers and Control Systems/Transmission Position Sensor/Switch/Service and Repair/6L45/6L50/6L80/6L90 - Automatic Transmission
)for IMS replacement.

Circuit/System Description
The transmission manual shift shaft switch assembly, also known as the internal mode switch (IMS), is a sliding contact switch attached to the
manual shift shaft inside the transmission case. The park/neutral position (PNP) switch is integrated into the IMS and connects to the transmission
control module (TCM) lead-frame through a short wire harness. The circuit uses the TCM as a pass-through connector only.
The Park/Neutral Signal is sent from the park/neutral switch directly to the engine control module (ECM) and is used for engine start enable.
