known-good PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE PCM ).

25. Start the engine in the P position, and wait for at least 20 seconds.  

26. Check for DTCs with the HDS. 

Is DTC P0713 indicated?  

YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals between the ATF temperature sensor and the PCM. 
If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE PCM ), then go to 
step 27. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1. 

NO -Go to step 27. 

27. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0713 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. 

Does the screen indicate PASSED?  

YES -If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the 
original PCM (see ECM/PCM REPLACEMENT ). If any other DTCs were indicated in step 26, go to 
the indicated DTCs troubleshooting. 

NO -If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals between the ATF 
temperature sensor and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see 
SUBSTITUTING THE PCM ), then go to step 25. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the 
screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 25. 

DTC P0716: PROBLEM IN INPUT SHAFT (MAINSHAFT) SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT; DTC P0717: 
PROBLEM IN INPUT SHAFT (MAINSHAFT) SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT (NO SIGNAL INPUT) 

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.  

3. Check for proper input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor installation (see INPUT SHAFT (MAINSHAFT) 

SPEED SENSOR REPLACEMENT ).  

4. 4WD: Raise the vehicle on a lift, make sure it is securely supported, and allow all four wheels to rotate 

freely. 

2WD: Raise the front of the vehicle, make sure it is securely supported, and allow the front wheels to 
rotate freely. Or raise the vehicle on a lift. 

5. Start the engine, disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF switch, run the vehicle in the D position, and 

NOTE:

Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board 
snapshot, and review General Troubleshooting Information (see GENERAL 
TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).  

This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused 
by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

hold the vehicle at speeds over 12 mph (20 km/h) for at least 10 seconds when not during shifting. Slow 
down and stop the wheels.  

6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for P0716 or P0717 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. 

Does the screen indicate FAILED?  

YES -Go to step 7. 

NO -If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor 
connections or loose terminals between the input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor and the PCM. If the 
screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 5. 

7. Turn the ignition switch OFF.  

8. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.  

9. Disconnect PCM connector A (31P) and the input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor connector.  

10. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminal A8 and body ground, and between PCM 

connector terminal A9 and body ground.

Is there continuity?  

YES -Go to step 11. 

NO -Repair open in the wires between PCM connector terminals A8, A9, and ground (G101), or repair 
poor ground (G101), then go to step 30. 

11. Connect PCM connector A (31P).  

12. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

13. Measure the voltage between input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 1 and body 

ground.

NO -Go to step 25. 

14. Turn the ignition switch OFF.  

15. Disconnect PCM connector C (22P).  

16. Check for continuity between input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2 and body 

ground.

Is there continuity?  

YES -Repair short to body ground in the wire between PCM connector terminal C19 and the input shaft 
(mainshaft) speed sensor, then go to step 30. 

NO -Go to step 17.
