DTC Descriptors
DTC P0562
- System Voltage Low
DTC P0563
- System Voltage High
DTC P2534
- Ignition 1 Switch Circuit Low Voltage
Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The transmission control module (TCM) within the control solenoid valve assembly continuously monitors the system voltage on the ignition voltage circuit. Lower than normal voltage may be inadequate to operate the transmission control solenoids properly. Improper solenoid operation may cause erratic transmission operation, which may result in internal damage. These DTCs detect high or low TCM voltage for an extended period.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P0562
* Ignition voltage was greater than 5.0 volts and has not dropped below 2.0 volts.
* Engine speed is greater than 1,200 RPM.
P0563
Ignition voltage was greater than 5.0 volts and has not dropped below 2.0 volts.
P2534
* Engine is running.
* Normal CAN communication is enabled.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0562
TCM detects ignition voltage is 11 volts or less for 4 seconds in a period of 12 seconds.
P0563
TCM detects ignition voltage is 18 volts or greater for 10 seconds in a period of 12 seconds.
P2534
TCM detects ignition voltage between 2.0 volts and 5.0 volts for 7 seconds or greater with the engine running.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
P0562 and P0563
DTCs P0562 and P0563 are Type C DTCs.
P2534
* DTC P2534 is a Type A DTC.
* TCM turns the high side driver OFF.
* TCM commands maximum line pressure.
* TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.
* TCM commands the torque converter clutch (TCC) OFF.
* TCM limits the transmission to Reverse and 3rd or 5th gear operation.
* TCM inhibits Tap Up/Down function.
* TCM inhibits manual shifting of forward gears.
* TCM inhibits neutral idle.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* DTCs P0562 and P0563 are Type C DTCs.
* DTC P2534 is a Type A DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
* Observe the driver information center (DIC) messaging that would indicate the electrical system requires service.
* Running the engine with a battery charger attached may cause DTC P0563 to set.
* Inspect for the following conditions:
- Loose or damaged terminals at the generator
- Loose or worn generator drive belt

For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools Tools and Equipment.
Circuit/System Verification
1. Test for 12.6-15 volts between the battery terminals with the engine running, accessories OFF.
• If not between 12.6-15 volts
Refer to Charging System Test Testing and Inspection.
• IF between 12.6-15 volts
2. Verify the scan tool TCM Ignition Voltage parameter is between 12.6-15.0 volts.
• If not between 12.6-15 volts
Refer to Circuit/System Testing Below.
• If between 12.6-15 volts
3. After performing the above steps, verify that the DTC does not reset by operating the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions you observe from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data. If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification procedure, then STOP. Do not perform the Circuit/System Testing or Component Testing as this may result in an unnecessary part replacement. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections.
Circuit/System Testing
Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
1. Ignition OFF, and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the X1 20-way harness connector at the transmission.
2. Connect the DT-47825-20 - adapter harness to the vehicle wire harness X1 20-way transmission connector.
3. Test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 1 and ground at the transmission case.
• If 5 ohms or greater
Test for less than 2 ohms in the ground circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
• If less than 5 ohms
4. Ignition ON.
5. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 10 and ground.
• If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the B+ circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
• If the test lamp does not illuminate and circuit fuse is open
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Test the B+ circuit for a short to ground.
• If B+ circuit has a short to ground, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
• If B+ circuit does not have a short to ground, replace the fuse.
• If the test lamp illuminates
6. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 13 and ground.
• If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the ignition circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
• If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Test the ignition circuit for a short to ground.
• If ignition circuit has a short to ground, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
• If ignition circuit does not have a short to ground, replace the fuse.
• If the test lamp illuminates
7. Replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.
Repair Instructions
Note:
* Perform the Reset Transmission Adapts Reset Transmission Adapts following all transmission related repairs.
* Before replacing the TCM, perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection.
