P0727

DTC P0727 (3.0L)

Circuit Description
Engine speed information is sent to the Transmission Control Module (TCM)by the Engine Control Module (ECM) through the(CAN). A 2-wire circuit is used to communicate data between the ECM and TCM, CAN H and CAN L. A fault in the CAN will not cause DTC P0727 to set by itself. If a communication fault occurs, other DTCs will set before P0727.

When the ECM sends the TCM an invalid engine speed, DTC P0727 sets. DTC P0727 is a type B DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC
^ No HSCAN DTCs U2103, or U2105.
^ The engine is running for greater than 5 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The engine speed is invalid for 1 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The TCM requests the ECM to illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
^ The TCM commands maximum line pressure.
^ The TCM calculates a default engine speed based on transmission input shaft speed.
^ The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.
^ The ECM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The ECM stores this information as Freeze Frame and Failure Records.
^ The TCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The TCM stores this information as Failure Records.
^ The TCM stores DTC P0727 in TCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ The ECM turns OFF the MIL after the third consecutive drive trip in which the TCM does not send a MIL illumination request.
^ A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.
^ The TCM clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ The TCM cancels the DTC default actions when the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the TCM.
