Closed throttle and engine RPM increases above 1500 RPM while in Park Test Setup or at Park/Neutral position switch is properly adjusted and functioning. Line pressure control is able to provide 1000 kPa and is within specifications. Vehicle is not moving, or vibrating excessively. Clutches are properly assembled. TOW/HAUL SWITCH/INDICATOR ALWAYS ON OR INOPERATIVE Fig. 5: View Of Tow/Haul Switch/Indicator CIRCUIT/SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Tow/haul mode enables the operator to achieve enhanced shift performance when towing or DIAGNOSTIC AIDS If the electrical circuit checks are OK and the tow/haul shift pattern is not occurring, there may

With the CIRCUIT/SYSTEM TESTING 1. Ignition Off, transmission in Park, disconnect the Tow/Haul switch connector. 2. Test for less than 1 Ohm of resistance between the Tow/Haul switch signal circuit terminal B and ground. If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an Open/High resistance. 3. Ignition On, verify the scan tool Tow/Haul parameter displays Inactive. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests 4. Install a fused jumper between the signal circuit and ground. Verify the scan tool parameter displays Active.

If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high 5. If all circuits test normal, replace the Tow/Haul switch. COMPONENT TESTING 1. Ignition Off, transmission in Park, disconnect the transmission Tow/Haul switch assembly. 2. Test for infinite resistance between the Tow/Haul switch with the switch in the Open position. If not the specified value, replace the Tow/Haul switch assembly. 3. Depress and hold the Tow/Haul switch. 4. Test for less than 1 Ohm of resistance between the Tow/Haul switch signal circuit terminals B and A while the switch is depressed. If greater than the specified value, replace the Tow/Haul switch assembly. REPAIR PROCEDURES Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure. Body Control Module (BCM) assembly replacement. Refer to Control Module Perform the Shift Lever Replacement . TRANSMISSION FLUID CHECK This procedure checks the transmission fluid level, as well as the condition of the fluid itself. Before checking the fluid level, perform the following: 1. Start the engine and park the vehicle on a level surface. Keep the engine running. 2. Apply the parking brake and place the shift lever in PARK (P). 3. Depress the brake pedal and move the shift lever through each gear range, pausing for about 3 seconds in each range. Then, move the shift lever back to PARK (P). 4. Allow the engine to idle 500-800 rpm for at least 1 minute. Slowly release the brake pedal. 5. Keep the engine running and observe the transmission fluid temperature (TFT) using the NOTE: Always use the proper automatic transmission fluid listed. Using

Driver Information Center (DIC) or a scan tool. 6. Using the TFT reading, determine and perform the appropriate check procedure. If the TFT reading is not within the required temperature ranges, allow the vehicle to cool, or operate COLD CHECK PROCEDURE 1. Locate the transmission dipstick at the rear of the engine compartment, on the passenger's side of the vehicle. 2. Flip the handle up, and then pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag or paper towel. 3. Install the dipstick by pushing it back in all the way, wait three seconds and then pull it back out again. 4. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the lower level. Repeat the check procedure to verify the reading. 5. Inspect the color of the fluid on the dipstick. Refer to Fluid Condition Inspection in this procedure. 6. If the fluid level is below the COLD check band, add only enough fluid as necessary to bring the level into the COLD band. It does not take much fluid, generally less than one pint 7. If the fluid level is in the acceptable range, push the dipstick back in all the way, then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick in place. 8. Perform a hot check at the first opportunity after the transmission reaches a normal operating temperature between 160°F to 200°F (71°C to 93°C). IMPORTANT: Use this procedure only as a reference to determine if the transmission has enough fluid to be operated safely until a IMPORTANT: Always check the fluid level at least twice. Consistent readings are important to maintaining proper fluid level. If
