DTC Descriptor
DTC P07A3
-
Transmission Clutch 1 Stuck On
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The hybrid/electric vehicle (EV) powertrain control module 1 monitors the variable low and 1-2 reverse clutch slip speed for each Hybrid/EV Transmission Mode Command state. Low clutch slip speed when the clutch is commanded Off indicates a stuck or welded clutch condition. If the hybrid/EV powertrain control module 1 detects a stuck clutch condition, the hybrid/EV powertrain control module 1 will cycle the clutch 3 times within 30 seconds. The customer may feel 3 bumps before the DTC sets.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Variable low and 1-2 reverse clutch (C1) is commanded OFF.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
Clutch slip is less than 30 RPM 3 times within 30 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* P07A3 is a Type A DTC.
* Inhibits dual motor operation.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
P07A3 is a Type A DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
When attempting to set transmission performance DTCs, observe the Freeze Frame and Failure Records to assist in duplicating the failure conditions. Ensure the transmission fluid level is correct and there are no leaks. If there are any other transmission DTCs set, diagnose those first.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Verify that P0721, P0797, P0966, P0967, P0969, P0970, P0971, P0973, P0974, P0976, P0977, P1B03, P1B04, P215C, P2720, P2721, P2728, P2729, or P2730 is not set.
• If any of the DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.
2. Perform the Transmission Fluid Level and Condition Check Testing and Inspection to verify correct fluid level and condition.
• If the transmission fluid is low or discolored, refer to Transmission Fluid Drain and Fill Transmission Fluid Drain and Fill.
3. Operate the vehicle in Dual Electric Motors and ICE mode while monitoring the Clutch 1 Slip Speed parameter. The Clutch 1 Slip Speed parameter should display greater than 30 RPM when the Clutch 1 Status parameter displays Released.
• If the DTC P07A3 resets, go to Component Testing.
Component Testing
1. Perform the Line Pressure Check Line Pressure Check.
2. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test.
• If a concern is found, replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.
3. Inspect the valve body assembly for sticking or damaged valves. Refer Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection.
• If you found a stuck or damaged valve, repair or replace the valve or valve body.
4. Inspect the variable low and 1-2 reverse clutch for a stuck On or damaged condition.
• If you found a variable low and 1-2 reverse clutch concern, repair or replace the variable low and 1-2 reverse clutch assembly as necessary.
