Transmission Control Module Scan Tool Information

The Transmission Control Module Scan Tool Data List contains all transmission related parameters that are available on the scan tool. The list is arranged in alphabetical order. A given parameter may appear in any one of the data lists, and in some cases may appear more than once, or in more than one data list in order to group certain related parameters together.

The values below represent a typical display recorded from a properly functioning system.

Note: Do not use a scan tool that displays faulty data. Report the condition to the scan tool manufacturer. The use of a faulty scan tool can result in misdiagnosis and the unnecessary replacement of parts.

Only the parameters listed below are used/referenced in this manual for diagnosis. If a scan tool displays other parameters, those values are not recommended by General Motors for use in diagnosis.

If all values are within the expected range described below, refer to Symptoms - Automatic Transmission for diagnosis.

The scan tool values from a properly functioning transmission may be used for comparison with the transmission you are diagnosing. The values below represent a typical display recorded from a properly functioning system.

The scan tool displays counts. This display indicates the number of warm-up cycles without a emission failure.

Scan Tool Output Controls

Output Control

Description

Shift Solenoid 1

Shift Solenoid 2

•	The TCM commands Shift Solenoid 1 and Shift Solenoid 2 ON and OFF.

•	When the vehicle is ON, and the engine is OFF, there are no limits to this control. The solenoid remains On until commanded OFF, and vice versa. When the output control is exited, the solenoid state is determined by the TCM.

•	When the engine is running, the following control limits apply:

If the engine is running, the message "Engine Running" appears on the scan tool display.

Line PC Solenoid

•	The scan tool is used to request pressure in increments of 207 kPa (30 PSI) from 0-1862 kPa (0-270 PSI). The TCM will then command the solenoid to achieve the requested pressure.

•	When the vehicle is in Service Mode, the pressure request may be controlled within calibrated limits. There are no limits to the output control when the engine is OFF.

•	When the engine is running, the following control limits apply:

When the transmission range is Park or Neutral, the pressure request may be controlled within calibrated limits. The engine speed must be less than 1,500 RPM. If the engine speed is greater than 1,500 RPM, the message "TR in park/neutral and engine speed over 1,500 RPM" appears on the scan tool display.

When the transmission range is not Park or Neutral, the requested pressure can only be controlled equal to or greater than the pressure determined by the TCM. The TCM does not allow a pressure to be selected that may cause damage to the transmission. If the requested pressure is less than allowed by the TCM, the message "Requested pressure for the Line PC Solenoid is too low" appears on the scan tool display.

-	Transmission range DTCs must not be active. If a transmission range DTC is active, the message "Engine running with transmission DTC present" appears on the scan tool display.

PC Solenoid 2

PC Solenoid 3

PC Solenoid 4

PC Solenoid 5

•	The TCM commands the pressure control solenoids in order to apply and release the clutches.

•	The TCM commands the pressure control solenoids. The solenoid remains ON until commanded OFF, and vice versa. When the output control is exited, the solenoid state is determined by the TCM.

•	When the vehicle is in Service Mode, there are no limits to this control. The solenoid remains ON until commanded OFF, and vice versa. When the output control is exited, the solenoid state is determined by the TCM.

•	When the engine is running, the following control limits apply:

If the engine is running, the message "Engine Running" appears on the scan tool display.

•	Transmission range DTCs must not be active. If a transmission range DTC is active, the message "Engine running with transmission DTC present" appears on the scan tool display.
