Remove the molded leadframe from the main control. REFER to: Shift Solenoids (SS) . Inspect for metallic contamination and clean the solenoid and molded leadframe terminals.

Measure and record the resistance of the suspected solenoid. REFER to: Shift Solenoids (SS) . Compare the recorded value with the chart below:

Solenoid

Ohms

SSA

4.8 to 5.6

SSB

4.8 to 5.6

SSC

4.8 to 5.6

SSD

4.8 to 5.6

SSE

17.5 to 18.6

LPC solenoid

4.8 to 5.6

TCC solenoid

4.8 to 5.6

Is the solenoid resistance within specification?

Yes

The system is operating correctly at this time. INSTALL new foam strip (Service Part Number FL3Z-14B167-A) between molded leadframe and the solenoids. REFER to: Shift Solenoids (SS) .

No

INSTALL a new solenoid for the solenoid that failed the resistance check. INSTALL new foam strip (Service Part Number FL3Z-14B167-A) between molded leadframe and the solenoids. REFER to: Shift Solenoids (SS) .

TEST B : TFT (TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE) SENSOR

Refer to Transmission Controls - 6R80 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The TFT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor that is in contact with transmission fluid in the transmission sump area. The PCM monitors the voltage across the TFT sensor, which changes as transmission fluid temperature varies. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal as an input for its strategy for shifting and TCC operation. The PCM also uses the TFT sensor signal for transmission fault detection and diagnostics.
