DTC P2728-P2730

The clutch pressure (PC) solenoid 5 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable components. The normally low clutch PC solenoid 5 regulates and directs the clutch PC solenoid 5 oil pressure to the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve. Increasing clutch PC solenoid 5 pressure increases pressure to the 1-2-3-4 clutch. The transmission control module (TCM) varies the current to the PC solenoid 5 through a low side driver. Increasing the current to the clutch PC solenoid 5 increases clutch PC solenoid 5 oil pressure by closing OFF the solenoid exhaust port. Decreasing the current to the clutch PC solenoid 5 decreases clutch PC solenoid 5 oil pressure by opening the solenoid exhaust port. Clutch 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.

P2728, P2729, or P2730

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-circuit to ground on the clutch PC solenoid 5 control circuit for 1 second.

P2730

The TCM detects an open or short-circuit to voltage on the clutch PC solenoid 5 control circuit for 1 second.

For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools .

1. Operate the vehicle in second gear long enough to ensure at least a 3°C (5°F) rise in TCM temperature, then operate the vehicle in PARK for 5 seconds.
2. Operate the vehicle in drive range. Allow the transmission to change through all forward gear ranges. Verify with a scan tool, the following test status parameters display OK.

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Performance Test Status

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Control Circuit Low Voltage Test Status

3. After performing the above steps, verify that the DTC does not reset by operating the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions you observe from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data. If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification procedure, then STOP. Do not perform the Circuit/System Testing or Component Testing as this may result in an unnecessary part replacement. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

1. Ignition OFF, remove the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement .
2. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection .
3. Place the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly on a clean work surface near the transmission assembly.
4. Connect DT-48616-10 harness between the vehicle wire harness X1 14-way transmission electrical connector, and the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly electrical connector.
5. Ignition ON, verify with a scan tool the following test status parameters display OK.

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Performance Test Status

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status

•	Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 Control Circuit Low Voltage Test Status

⇒	If any test status parameter displays Fault or Malfunction, replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
