* DTCs P0970 and P0971 are Type B DTCs.
* No self learning function.
* The TCM turns OFF all solenoids.
* The TCM allows the vehicle after a stop to operate only in the second gear and "R" range.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
P0798, P0969
* DTC P0971 is a Type B DTC.
* The TCM detects the error current less than 50 mA for 2.75 ms.
P0970, P0971
* DTCs P0970 and P0971 are Type B DTCs.
* The current consumption of the SLC2 control circuit is 0.1-1.1 A for 500 ms.
Diagnostic Aids
When attempting to set solenoid electrical DTCs, ensure the TCM is warmed up and the transmission is operated in 2nd gear long enough to ensure
a 3掳C (5掳F) increase in TCM substrate temperature. This will place the TCM under the optimal conditions to test solenoid electrical DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Ensure the transmission fluid temperature is between 50-80掳C (122-176掳F).
2. Operate the vehicle in 2nd gear long enough to ensure at least a 3掳C (5掳F) rise in transmission fluid temperature, then operate the vehicle in
Park for 5 s.
3. Observe the scan tool Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 2 Current parameter, the reading should be between 0.1-1.1 A.
Circuit/System Testing
Command the Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 2 with a scan tool. The value should change from 0.0-1.0 A.
If the value does not change, turn ignition OFF, remove the K71 Transmission Control Module. Connect a test lamp between the low reference
circuit terminal 18 X2 at the K71 Transmission Control Module and the voltage supply component circuit terminal 17 X2 at the K71 Transmission
Control Module. Command the Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 2 with a scan tool. The test lamp has to illuminate brighter with increasing
current.
If the test lamp always illuminate or always does not illuminate, replace the K71 Transmission Control Module.
