  1. B1 RETRIEVE AND RECORD ALL DTCS

    • Using the diagnostic scan tool, retrieve all DTCs.

    Are DTCs P0755, P0758, P0759, P0976 and/or P0977 present? 

    Yes  For DTCs P0755, P0758 and P0759, GO to  B2. For DTC P0976, GO to  B5. For DTC P0977, GO to  B7.
    No  GO to Symptom Chart .

  2. B2 CHECK THE SSB CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Transmission Vehicle Harness C1520A .
    • Disconnect: TCM C1750 .
    • Inspect the connectors for damaged or pushed-out terminals, corrosion, loose wires and missing or damaged seals.
    • Measure the resistance  between.
