DTC Descriptor
DTC P2534
- Ignition 1 Switch Circuit Low Voltage

DTC P2535
- Ignition 1 Switch Circuit High Voltage

Diagnostic Fault Information






Typical Scan Tool Data






Circuit/System Description

The transmission control module (TCM) samples the system voltage on the Ignition 1 voltage circuit every 0.1 seconds. higher or lower than normal voltage may cause erratic transmission operation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The transmission control module is communicating on the serial data circuits.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The transmission control module detects less than 2 volts on the ignition voltage circuit at the transmission control module for greater than 10 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTCs P2534 and P2535 are Type A DTCs.
* The transmission control module turns OFF all solenoids.
* The transmission control module commands maximum line pressure.
* The transmission control module freezes transmission adaptive functions.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P2534 and P2535 are Type A DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

* Verify the control solenoid valve assembly X1 connector and harness terminals are clean and not damaged.
* Verify the charging system is functioning correctly.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect control solenoid valve assembly X1 connector.
2. Vehicle ON, test for 8-18V between the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly X1 connector ignition voltage circuit terminal 13 and ground.

• If not within the specified range, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the diagnostic procedure.
