- Clutch Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 2 Control Circuit High Voltage
Diagnostic Fault Information
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The clutch pressure (PC) solenoid 2 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable parts. The normally high clutch PC
solenoid 2 regulates and directs the clutch PC solenoid 2 oil pressure to the 3-5 reverse clutch regulator valve and 3-5 reverse clutch boost valve.
Increasing clutch PC solenoid 2 pressure increases pressure to the 3-5 reverse clutch. The TCM varies the current to the PC solenoid 2 through a
low side driver. Decreasing the current to the clutch PC solenoid 2 increases clutch PC solenoid 2 oil pressure by closing OFF the solenoid exhaust
port. Increasing the current to the clutch PC solenoid 2, decreases clutch PC solenoid 2 oil pressure by opening the solenoid exhaust port. Clutch
PC solenoid 2 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
P0965, P0966, or P0967
* DTCs P0965, P0966, or P0967 have not set this ignition.
* The ignition voltage is 8.6 volts or greater.
* The engine run time is greater than 5 seconds.
* The clutch PC solenoid 2 is commanded ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0965
The TCM detects an internal electrical performance malfunction of the clutch PC solenoid 2 control circuit where the measured clutch PC solenoid
2 current does not equal the commanded clutch PC solenoid 2 current for 5 seconds.
P0966
The TCM detects a short to ground on the clutch PC solenoid 2 control circuit for 1 second.
P0967
The TCM detects an open or short to voltage on the clutch PC solenoid 2 control circuit, for 1 second.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
P0965
* DTC P0965 is a Type C DTC.
* The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.
P0966
* DTC P0966 is a Type A DTC.
* The TCM forces HSD1 OFF.
* The TCM forces TCC OFF.
* The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.
* The TCM commands maximum line pressure.
* The TCM enables Torque management.
