P0992-2/4/OD HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST

For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W.

Theory of Operation


Pressure switches are normally off or open (no pressure applied) and read high (+12 volts). When an element is applied, the corresponding pressure switch closes to ground (0 volts) or turns on. The controller tests the OD and 2/4 pressure switches when they are off (when the corresponding friction element is not applied) by briefly applying the OD and 2/4 elements which will cause the corresponding pressure switch to close. The test verifies that the switches are operational and that the switch will close when the corresponding element is applied. If a switch fails to respond, it is re-tested. The MIL illuminates and the transmission system defaults to limp-in mode.



Possible Causes
CONDITION P0992 PRESENT


Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).


1. CHECK TO SEE IF DTC P0992 IS CURRENT

NOTE: The vehicle must be driven to set this DTC. The transmission must be at operating temperature with the Engine rpm above 1000 rpm.


This DTC is an indication of both the 2/4 and the O/D Hydraulic Pressure Switch DTCs being present.
Perform the diagnostic procedures for both P0845 and P0870.
With the scan tool, check the DTC EVENT DATA to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.

If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.
