DTC Descriptors

DTC P2714
- Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 4 Stuck Off

DTC P2715
- Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 4 Stuck On

Circuit/System Description

Pressure control solenoid 4 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable components. Pressure control solenoid 4 regulates transmission fluid pressure to the 2-6 regulator valve which controls pressure to the 2-6 clutch. The transmission control module (TCM) calculates gear ratio based on the speed signals from the input shaft speed (ISS) sensor and the output shaft speed (OSS) sensor. The TCM compares the expected transmission gear ratio to the calculated gear ratio for each commanded gear.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P2714

TCM detects an incorrect on-coming clutch gear ratio, or shift flare. This condition must occur 3 times.

P2715

TCM detects an incorrect off-going clutch gear ratio, or shift tie-up. This condition must occur 3 times.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

P2714

* P2714 is a Type A DTC.

* TCM commands maximum line pressure.

* TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.

* TCM inhibits the Tap Up/Tap Down function.

* TCM inhibits manual shifting of forward gears.

* TCM limits the transmission to reverse and 3rd gear.

* TCM inhibits powertrain braking.

* TCM inhibits neutral idle.

* TCM inhibits auto grade braking.

P2715

* P2715 is a Type A DTC.

* TCM commands maximum line pressure.

* TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.

* TCM inhibits the Tap Up/Tap Down function.

* TCM inhibits manual shifting of forward gears.

* TCM inhibits powertrain braking.

* TCM inhibits auto grade braking.

* TCM inhibits neutral idle.

* TCM commands 2nd gear if the output speed is less than 700 RPM.

* TCM commands neutral if the output speed is 700 RPM or greater.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

P2714 and P2715 are Type A DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification

Warning: Refer to Parking Brake and Drive Wheels Warning Parking Brake and Drive Wheels Warning.


Note: If other DTCs are set, diagnose those DTCs first.

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify DTC P0716, P0717, P0722, P0723, P077C, P077D, P07BF, or P07C0 was not set by reviewing the scan tool Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

If any of the DTCs were set
Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

If none of the DTCs were set

3. Engine idling, transmission in Park, with parking brake applied and drive wheels chocked.

4. Verify the transmission fluid level and condition is correct. Refer to Transmission Fluid Level and Condition Check Testing and Inspection.

If the transmission fluid level and condition is not correct
Repair as necessary.

If the transmission fluid level and condition is correct

5. Ignition ON, clear the TCM DTCs with a scan tool.

6. Verify DTC P2714 or P2715 does not set while performing a road test. Refer to Road Test Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview.

If DTC P2714 or P2715 sets
