DTC Descriptors

DTC P2714
- Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 4 Stuck Off

DTC P2715
- Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 4 Stuck On

Circuit/System Description

The clutch pressure control solenoid 4 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable components. The Pressure Control solenoid 4 regulates transmission fluid pressure to the 2-6 clutch 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.

* Transmission fluid temperature is -7°C (19°F) or greater.

* Engine speed is between 400-7500 RPM for 5 seconds.

* Transmission output shaft speed is 36 RPM or greater, or the throttle position is 0.5 percent or greater.

* Commanded and attained range is not 1st gear.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P2714

TCM has detected an incorrect gear ratio or neutral condition when the 2-6 clutch is commanded ON. This condition must occur 3 times.

P2715

TCM has detected an incorrect gear ratio change when the 2-6 clutch is commanded OFF during a shift or, when 2nd gear ratio is detected in 1st gear. This condition must occur 3 times.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

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

2. Verify the transmission fluid level and condition is correct. Refer to Transmission Fluid Level and Condition Check 6T70/6T75 - Automatic Transmission.

3. Ignition ON, engine OFF. Clear the TCM DTC information with a scan tool.

4. Perform the Road Test 6T70/6T75 - Automatic Transmission.

5. Verify DTC P2714 or P2715 did not set.

If a DTC sets
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If a DTC does not set

6. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

7. Verify DTC P2714 or P2715 did not set.

If a DTC sets
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If a DTC did not set

8. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

1. Verify the transmission line pressures are within range. Refer to Line Pressure Check Line Pressure Check and Solenoid Valve Pressure Solenoid Valve Pressure.

If line pressures are not within the specified ranges
Refer to Fluid Pressure High or Low Fluid Pressure High or Low.

If line pressures are within the specified ranges

2. Ignition OFF, remove the Q8 Control Solenoid Valve Assembly. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Replacement Service and Repair.

3. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test. Test all solenoids on the Q8 Control Solenoid Valve Assembly.

4. Verify a pressure change occurs for each solenoid valve.

If a pressure change does not occur for each solenoid
Replace the Q8 Control Solenoid Valve Assembly.

If a pressure change occurs for each solenoid
