P1B13-PARK-BY-WIRE - UNINTENDED OUT OF PARK POSITION

For a complete wiring diagram Refer to the Wiring Information.

Theory of Operation

The purpose of the diagnostic is to detect an engaged park pawl based on the request of a Reverse, Neutral or Drive position.

- When Monitored:
Engine rpm above a calibrated threshold and no failures detected in the park lock sensor system.

- Set Condition:
The failure is detected if the driver request is Reverse, Neutral or Drive and the park pawl does not disengage within a calibrated amount of time.





Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. 8HP45 Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure

1. CHECK IF DTC IS CURRENT

NOTE: The Transmission Control Module stores under Environmental Data the transmission operating conditions when the DTC was set. Before clearing any DTCs, record all information pertaining to the DTC.

1. With the scan tool, CLEAR transmission DTCs.
2. Using the Environmental Data previously recorded and try to duplicate the condition in which the DTC set.

Does the DTC reset?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Go To 3

2. TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE ASSEMBLY (TCMA)

If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.

Repair

- Using the schematics as a guide, check the TCMA terminals for corrosion, damage or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to power and ground circuits. Check Service Information Tune-ups or Service Bulletins for possible causes that may apply. Remove the transmission oil pan and the TCMA. Valve Body - Removal. Inspect and clean the Park Release and Park Hold Solenoid terminals at the wiring harness leadframe for metallic contamination. Reinstall the TCMA. Valve Body - Installation. Connect the scan tool and clear the DTCs. Road test the vehicle and check for DTCs. If the DTC returns, replace and program the TCMA. Valve Body - Removal.
- Perform the TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST. Verification Tests.

3. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS
