Circuit Description

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the commanded gear and the speed ratio in order to identify a 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve (1-2 SS Valve) problem.

When the PCM detects a 2-3 only or a 1-4 only shift pattern, then DTC P0751 sets. DTC P0751 is a type B DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

•	No TP DTCs P0122 or P0123

•	No VSS DTC P0502

•	No TCC stuck ON DTC P0742

•	No 1-2 solenoid electrical DTC P0753

•	No 2-3 solenoid electrical DTC P0758

•	No TCC PWM solenoid electrical DTC P1860

•	No TCC enable solenoid electrical DTC P1864

•	The engine speed is greater than 500 RPM for 5 seconds.

•	Not in fuel shut off

•	The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

•	The transmission temperature is 30-150°C (86-302°F).

•	The transmission range switch indicates D4.

•	The traction control is not active.

•	All of the above must occur twice and either fail-cases 1,2,3 and 4 or 1,2,3 and 5 are true twice.

Failure Criteria

Case 1:

•	1-2 shift commanded

•	The throttle position is 14-45% and is constant within 5%.

•	The vehicle speed is 8-80 km/h (5-50 mph).

•	When 2nd gear is commanded and within 2.6 seconds, engine speed is 100 RPM greater than the engine speed of the commanded 1st gear.

Case 2:

•	2-3 shift commanded

•	The throttle position is 14-45% and is constant within 5%.

•	The vehicle speed is 32-104 km/h (20-65 mph).

•	When 3rd gear is commanded and within 2.5 seconds, the engine speed is 130 RPM less than the engine speed of the commanded 2nd gear.

Case 3:

•	3-4 shift commanded

•	The throttle position is 14-25% and is constant within 3%.

•	The vehicle speed is 56-128 km/h (35-80 mph).

•	When 4th gear is commanded and within 2.5 seconds, the engine speed is 5 RPM greater than the engine speed of the commanded 3rd gear.

Case 4:

•	Fourth gear is commanded and the TCC is ON.

•	The throttle position is 7-32%.

•	The speed ratio is 37.5-39.5.

•	The TCC slip is 500-1000 RPM for more than 2.5 seconds.

Case 5:

•	Fourth gear is commanded and the TCC is ON.

•	The throttle position is 7-32%.

•	The speed ratio is 26-28.

•	The TCC slip is -20 to +20 RPM for more than 2.5 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

•	The PCM inhibits downshifts to 2nd gear if the vehicle speed is greater than 48 km/h (30 mph).

•	The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) after two consecutive trips with a failure reported.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

•	The PCM turns OFF the MIL after three consecutive ignition cycles without a failure reported.

•	A scan tool can clear the DTC from the PCM history. The PCM clears the DTC from the PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a failure reported.

•	The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the ignition is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids

•	Check for PRNDL DTC P0705. A PRNDL DTC affects transmission operation. A PRNDL DTC may set DTC P0751 falsely.

•	Inspect the transmission fluid for sediment.

•	Inspect the transmission filter for debris.
