On-Board Diagnostics

_____________________________________________

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The TCM Illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).

• When in a forward range and shifting is completed, the transmission will fail to another forward range, unless the trans-

mission is compromised by over speeding or direction change, then the transmission will shift to NEUTRAL.

• When in a forward range and the shift is in process, the transmission will return to a previous range, except for 1-2 shifts

and 2-1 shifts where the shifts will be completed.

• When in NEUTRAL or REVERSE, the transmission will fail to NEUTRAL.

• While diagnostic response is active, the shift selector is moved from a forward range to NEUTRAL or from a forward

range to REVERSE, then the transmission will shift to NEUTRAL.

• DTC P0846 will be stored in TCM history.

• The TCM freezes shift adapts.

• The TCM inhibits torque converter clutch (TCC) engagement.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

A scan tool can clear the code from TCM history. The TCM automatically clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle com-
pletes 40 warm-up cycles without failure.

Diagnostic Aids

• Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the TCM. Inspect for the following conditions:

• A bent terminal

• A backed-out terminal

• A damaged terminal

• Poor terminal tension

• A chafed wire

• A broken wire inside the insulation

• When diagnosing for an intermittent short or open, massage the wiring harness while watching the test equipment for a

change.

• You may have to drive the vehicle in order to experience a condition.

• This DTC may indicate D solenoid is mechanically defective.

• When a P0846 and P0848 are set in combination, this may indicate an open circuit condition is present at the pressure

switch circuit or the shift valve is stuck in the unstroked position

Install the scan tool.

Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.

NOTE: Before clearing the DTC, use the scan tool in order to
record the Freeze Frame and Failure Records for reference. The
Clear Info function will erase the data.

Record the DTC Freeze Frame and Failure Records.

Clear the DTC.

Start the engine.

Using the scan tool, monitor TFP SW. D status.

Does the scan tool indicate TFP SW. D status is ON?

Diagnostic Aids

Go to Step 5

Turn the ignition OFF.

Disconnect C79 at the TCM.

Install the J 39700 breakout box and the J 43799 breakout
box adapter at C79.

Connect C79 terminal 2 to a known good ground.

Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.

Does the scan tool indicate TFP SW. D status is ON when
grounded and OFF when open?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 12

Turn the ignition OFF.

Connect the C79 to the TCM.

Disconnect the transmission 20-way connector C34.

Turn the ignition ON. Additional DTCs might be set.

Connect C34 terminal F to a known good ground.

Does the scan tool indicate TFP SW. D status is ON when
grounded and OFF when open?

Go to Step 7

Go to Step 14

Connect the transmission C34.

Remove the oil pan. Refer to Transmission Oil Pan Replace-
ment.

Disconnect the AT internal wiring harness from the PSM and
ground terminal B.

Does the scan tool indicate TFP SW. D status is ON when
grounded and OFF when open?

Go to Step 8

Go to Step 13

Remove the PSM from the control valve body and leave the
internal harness connected. Refer to Pressure Switch Mani-
fold Replacement.

Provide a ground connection for the PSM to either the con-
trol valve body or the transmission main case.

Using the eraser end of a pencil, push gently on the pressure
switch D membrane.

Does the scan tool indicate TFP SW. D status is ON when
grounded and OFF when open?

Go to Step 9

Go to Step 12

Remove the control valve body and inspect for a stuck or sticking
D shift valve.

Was the D shift valve stuck or sticking?

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 10

DTC P0847 Transmission Pressure Switch Solenoid D Circuit Stuck Closed (Figure OBD-90)

Figure OBD-90: Transmission Pressure Switch Solenoid D Circuit

Circuit Description

The pressure switch manifold (PSM) is a multiple-switch assembly made up of three normally open (N/O) and one normally closed
(N/C) pressure switches. The D pressure switch monitors D shift valve positioning and relays it to the transmission control module
(TCM). When D pressure switch is in the open state, D shift valve should be in the unstroked position.

DTC P0847 is a type A DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0847 sets when D solenoid is commanded OFF and pressure switch D status remains ON for 2-16 seconds, depending on
fluid temperature.
