### DTC Descriptors

DTC P2714: Clutch Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 4 - Stuck Off
DTC P2715: Clutch Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 4 - Stuck On

### Circuit/System Description

The clutch pressure control (PC) solenoid 4 is part of the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly and is not serviced separately. The clutch PC solenoid 4 flows fluid to the 2-6 clutch when commanded ON and exhausts fluid when commanded OFF. The clutch PC solenoid 4 regulates the transmission fluid pressure to the 2-6 clutch. The TCM calculates gear ratio based on data from the automatic transmission input speed sensor (ISS) and the output speed sensor (OSS). The TCM compares the known transmission gear ratio to a calculated gear ratio for each commanded gear.

### Conditions for Setting the DTC

#### P2714

Dynamic Test:

• | High Speed Mode:

- | The transmission output shaft speed is greater than or equal to 60 RPM.

- | Commanded gear slip is equal to or greater than 100 RPM for 2.25 seconds.

• | Low Speed Mode:

• | The transmission output shaft speed is less than 60 RPM.

• | The turbine speed is greater than or equal to the calibrated value for 2.25 seconds.

The 2nd gear steady state testing:

Fail Case 1 and Fail Case 2 must occur in sequential order.

#### Fail Case 1

The commanded gear equals 2nd, transmission case slip speed is 100 RPM or greater for 5 seconds.

#### Fail Case 2

Commanded gear accelerates to 2nd and 2nd gear box slip is less than or equal to 35 RPM or gear box slip is equal to or less than 100 RPM and PC Sol. 2 commanded pressure is at maximum for 4 seconds.

The 6th gear steady state testing:

Fail Case 1 and Fail Case 2 must occur in sequential order.

#### Fail Case 1

The commanded gear equals 6th, transmission case slip speed is 100 RPM or greater for 5 seconds.

#### Fail Case 2

Commanded gear accelerates to 5th and 5th gear box slip is less than or equal to 35 RPM or gear box slip is equal to or less than 100 RPM and PC Sol 2 commanded pressure is at maximum for 4 seconds.

#### P2715

Dynamic Test:

• | As PCS 4 of 2-6-R clutch commanded pressure is 0 for a calibrated amount of time.

• | The obtained gear box slip is equal to or less than 40 RPM for a calibrated amount of time.

Steady state Test:

Fail Case 1 and Fail Case 2 must occur in sequential order, and the transmission is not at 2nd or 6th gear

#### Fail Case 1

• | The transmission OSS speed drops less than or equal to a calibrated value.

• | The above conditions exist for up to 0.3 seconds.

#### Fail Case 2

The clutch is off-going and the difference of the gear speed is between 35-100 RPM for 4 seconds.

### Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• | DTCs P2714 and P2715 are Type A DTCs.

• | The TCM commands maximum line pressure.

• | The TCM inhibits TCC.

• | The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.

### Conditions for Clearing the DIC/DTC

DTCs P2714 and P2715 are Type A DTCs.

### Diagnostic Aids

When attempting to set transmission performance DTCs, observe the Freeze Frame and Failure Records to assist in duplicating the failure conditions.
