Signal Too Low
Signal too low
Checking the transmission output speed sensor signal
- Ignition off
- Raise the car so that the drive wheels are clear of the ground
- Start the engine and let it run at idle speed
- Shift gear selector to position D so that the drive wheels begin to rotate
- Read off the transmission speed.
Depress the accelerator pedal (AP) and check that the speed is updated.
Note! Ensure that the wheels are not rotating when the gear selector is moved.
Note! Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) may be stored in the ABS system when the rear wheels are stationary and the front wheels rotate. Erase any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in the ABS system after fault-tracing.
Was the speed updated?
Yes - Intermittent fault
No - Checking wiring and sensors
-------------------------------------------------
Checking wiring and sensors
- Ignition off
- Connect the breakout box.
Check the power supply cable between transmission control module (TCM) terminal #9 and terminal #2 on the white 2-pin transmission connector. Check for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Check for a short-circuit to ground according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Check the signal cable between control module terminal #10 and terminal #1 on the white 2-pin transmission connector. Check for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals.

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Raise the car so that the drive wheels are clear of the ground
- Start the engine and let it run at idle speed
- Shift gear selector to position D so that the drive wheels begin to rotate
- Read off the transmission speed.
Check that the speed is updated
