GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1–2. TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM)
The electronic control of the transmission is performed by a microcomputer. The microcomputer is an independent controller and is referred to as a Transmission Control Module (TCM). TCMs are available in both 12V and 12/24V configurations to match the configuration of the vehicle electrical system.
The TCM (Figure 1–3) contains the microcomputer which is the brain of the control system. The TCM receives and processes information defining:
•Shift selector
•Throttle position
•Sump/retarder temperature
•Pressure switch state
•Engine speed
•Turbine speed
•Transmission output speed.
The TCM uses the information to:
•Control transmission solenoids
•Supply system status
•Provide diagnostic information.
Each TCM has a date code laser etched on the outer case of the TCM. This is the date when the TCM passed final testing. This date is commonly used to denote the change configuration level of the TCM. It is normal for the TCM date displayed electronically to be a few days prior to the date shown on the label.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1–3. SHIFT SELECTOR
Pushbutton and lever shift selectors for the Allison 4th Generation Series are remote mounted from the TCM and communicate to the TCM via the J1939 communications data link. All shift selectors except the strip-type pushbutton have a dual digit vacuum fluorescent (VF) display and a mode indicator (LED). During normal transmission operation, illumination of the LED indicator shows that a secondary or special operating condition has been selected by pressing the MODE button. During diagnostic display mode, illumination of the LED indicator shows that the displayed Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is active. Display brightness is regulated by the same vehicle potentiometer that controls dash light display brightness. More information on both types of shift selectors is continued below.
A.Pushbutton Shift Selector (Figure 1–4)
There are three full-function pushbutton shift selectors and a strip pushbutton shift selector. Strip pushbutton shift selectors are used primarily by non-North American OEMs. A full-function shift selector has a MODE button and diagnostic display capability through the dual digit vacuum fluorescent (VF) display. The strip pushbutton shift selector does not have a MODE button,
diagnostic capability, or adjustable illumination. The full-function pushbutton shift selector has
six (6) pushbuttons which are R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), ↓ (Down), ↑ (Up), and MODE. Manual forward range downshifts and upshifts are made by pressing the ↓ (Down) or ↑ (Up) arrow buttons after selecting D (Drive). The N (Neutral) button has a raised lip to aid in finding it by touch.
The MODE button is pressed to select a secondary or special operating condition, such as ECONOMY shift schedule. Diagnostic information is obtained by pressing the ↑ (Up) and ↓ (Down) arrow buttons at the same time.
The strip pushbutton shift selector has either three or six range selection positions as shown in Figure 1–4. When a strip pushbutton shift selector is used, diagnostic information must be obtained by using the Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool, or a customer-supplied remote display.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
B.Lever Shift Selector (Figure 1–4)
The lever shift selector can have as many as six forward range positions (seven for the 7-speed models), as well as R (Reverse) and N (Neutral). There is a hold override button which must be pressed and held in order to move between certain selector positions. The hold override button must be pressed when shifting between R, N, and D. The hold override button is released when the desired selector position is reached. The selector lever can be moved freely between D and the numbered forward ranges without pressing the hold override button. The lever selector can be chosen with the lever on the left side or on the right side and with the R (Reverse) position toward the front or toward the rear of the selector. Diagnostic and oil level (if sensor is present) information is obtained from the LED display by pressing the “display mode” button.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1–4. THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (Figure 1–5)
The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) can be mounted to the engine, chassis, or transmission. The TPS contains a pull actuation cable and a potentiometer. One end of the cable is attached to the engine fuel lever and the other, inside a protective housing, to the TPS potentiometer. Output voltage from the TPS is directed to the TCM through the external harness. The voltage signal indicates the throttle position and, in combination with other input data, determines shift timing.

3000 AND 4000 PRODUCT FAMILIES TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL—ALLISON 4th GENERATION CONTROLS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1–5. SPEED SENSORS (Figure 1–6)
Three speed sensors—engine speed, turbine speed, and output speed—provide information to the TCM. The engine speed signal is generated by ribs on the shell of the torque converter pump. The turbine speed signal is generated by the rotating-clutch housing spline contours. The output speed signal is generated by a toothed member attached to the output shaft (except for the 3000 Product Family 7-speed models, where the toothed member is the transfer case idler gear). The speed ratios between the various speed sensors allow the TCM to determine if the transmission is in the selected range. Speed sensor information is also used to control the timing of clutch apply pressures, resulting in the smoothest shifts possible. Hydraulic problems are detected by comparing the speed sensor information for the current range to that range’s speed sensor information stored in the TCM memory.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1–6. CONTROL MODULE (Figures 1–7 and 1–8)
The Allison 4th Generation Series transmission control module contains a main body assembly and solenoid valve body assembly, which are mounted to an aluminum channel plate. The TCM issues commands to various solenoids in the two valve bodies to govern fluid flow to the clutches (including torque converter clutch). The solenoids produce an output pressure that is proportional to current from the TCM. Hence, the solenoids are referred to as pressure control solenoids (PCS).

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The main valve body assembly contains the following:
•Main pressure regulator valve
•Control main regulator valve
•Converter flow valve
•Lube regulator valve
•Converter regulator valve
•Exhaust backfill valve
•Two latching logic valves
•On/Off solenoid SS1.
The solenoid valve body assembly contains the following:
•Pressure control solenoid MAIN MOD
•PCS1 (A trim)
•PCS2 (B trim)
•PCS3 (C trim)
•PCS4 (D trim)
•TCC (lockup)
•Diagnostic pressure switch PS1
•Filter Life Switch (PS2)
•Five solenoid regulator valves
•One diagnostic valve.
The low valve body assembly (in 3000 and 4000 Product Families 7-speed models) contains solenoid PCS6 (C6) and one ON/OFF solenoid SS2 (C6 enable). Refer to the appropriate service manual for valve locations.
The Allison 4th Generation controls system includes a main modulation solenoid. Modulated main pressure results in improved cooler flow and reduced pump losses when throttle position and output speed is low. The Allison 4th Generation Controls TCM commands the main mod solenoid ON when all of the following conditions are simultaneously met:
•Sump temperature is greater than –80ºC (–112ºF) and less than 150ºC (302ºF).
•Engine speed less than 1200 rpm in all ranges except neutral. There are no restrictions on engine speed in neutral.
•Throttle percentage less than 15 percent in reverse, low (7-speed), first, or second range. Main mod may be commanded ON in neutral at any throttle position.
•Output speed is less than 250 rpm in neutral, reverse, low (7-speed), first, or second range.
•The PTO input to the TCM indicates the PTO is OFF.
•Shift not in progress.
The TCM may activate the main mod solenoid for improved clutch control and transmission response during other unusual operating situations.
A temperature sensor (thermistor) is located in the internal wiring harness. Changes in sump fluid temperature are indicated by changes in sensor resistance, which changes the signal sent to the TCM. Refer to the chart in Appendix Q.
The oil level sensor (OLS) is a float type device mounted on the control module channel plate. The OLS senses transmission fluid level by electronically measuring the buoyancy forces on the float. The sensor operates on

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
5VDC supplied by the TCM. The oil level sensor is available on any 3000 and 4000 Product Families transmissions except the 3000 7-speed transmissions.
The diagnostic pressure switch PS1 is mounted on the solenoid valve body assembly and performs the following two functions:
•When the C5 clutch is filled, PS1 senses the PCS2 solenoid regulator valve position to verify proper C3 clutch control in reverse, neutral, and first range.
•When the C5 clutch is exhausted, as in second through sixth ranges, PS1 verifies the position of the C1 and C2 latch valves.
The turbine speed sensor is mounted on the control module for the 3000 Product Family transmissions. The turbine speed sensor is directed at the rotating-clutch housing. The turbine speed sensor on the 4000 Product Family transmission is located on the outside of the main housing.
A.Control System Prognostics Operation and Display
The Prognostics Package includes the following functions:
•Oil Life Monitor
•Filter Life Monitor
•Transmission Health Monitor
Use the Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool to review the current status of any of these functions and a history of indicator resets. Use the Allison shift selector to review the current status of any of these functions, provided the function being checked is in its specific display mode. See the selector information section for that procedure.
When a specified threshold is detected for any of the prognostic functions, the SERVICE TRANS indicator (an open-ended wrench icon located between the range select and range monitor digits in the Allison shift selector) illuminates to alert the operator. The lamp strategy for the icon varies, either flashing, or steady, to indicate to the operator which function detected the threshold value was reached.
NOTE: Failure to attend to a service condition indicated by an illuminated lamp and then reset the SERVICE TRANS indicator within a defined operating period results in illumination of the CHECK TRANS light and an active Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)—indicating the increased probability that the service condition will develop into a more serious condition.
B.Filter Life Valve Body
The Filter Life Valve Body Assembly includes the parts listed here and also shown in Figure 2.
•Filter Life Valve Body
•Filter Life Valve
•Return Spring
•Valve Stop
•Retaining Clip
•Pressure Switch 2 (Filter Life)
•M6 x 45 Long Screws (4)
This assembly cannot be retrofitted to the former channel plate assemblies. Make sure all updates listed in this section and all other requirements are met prior to using the Prognostics features.

Autodetect is active on the first 25 engine starts and, in the case of throttle source detection logic, may continue past 25 ignition cycles until a valid source is determined (details follow in A through D below). Autodetect takes place within the first 30 seconds of each engine start monitored. Autodetect searches for the presence of the following transmission components or data inputs in the priority listed:
Retarder |
Present, Not Present |
Oil Lever Sensor (OLS) |
Present, Not Present |
Throttle |
TPS, J1587, J1939 * |
Engine Coolant Temperature |
Sensor, J1939, J1587 |
* No Throttle Autodetect with MY09
Even after autodetect has been completed, it can be reset to monitor an additional group of engine starts. Reset may be necessary if a device known to be present is not detected or if an autodetectable component or sensor was added after the initial vehicle build. Reset is accomplished by using Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool. To use the Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool, select “RESET AUTODETECT” to search for all four devices. Select “RESET AUTODETECT RETARDER” to search for a retarder only. Selecting “RESET ADAPTIVE SHIFT PARAMETERS” will not reset autodetect logic.
The Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool can also be used to override autodetect and manually enter the component or sensor to be recognized by the TCM by changing appropriate “customer modifiable constants” (CMC). The four items above are the only CMCs that are autodetectable. Other CMCs can be changed at any time and are not related to autodetect. Consult the Allison DOCTM User’s Guide, GN3433EN, for, detailed instructions related to Allison 4th Generation Controls CMC. Additional details for each of the four autodetectable features are given below.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A.Retarder
Autodetect searches for the presence of pressure control solenoid 5 (PCS5) to the retarder during the first 35 engine ignition cycles. Retarder autodetect will countdown for a maximum of 35 ignition cycles while recording detections of a retarder. A retarder will be identified as present and the retarder autodetect logic will stop once it is detected for three consecutive ignition cycles. If the ignition cycle counter completes the 35 cycles before there are three consecutive detections of a retarder, the software will log that there is no retarder and the retarder autodetect logic will stop. If the autodetect logic is not satisfied during the first 35 engine starts, the retarder is not detected and will not function on subsequent engine starts.
If a retarder is present but is not detected by autodetect, the retarder will not function. Be sure to determine that the retarder is functioning properly
WARNING: immediately after the 35th engine start. If the retarder is not functioning, test PCS5 solenoid for an open, short-to-ground, or short-to-battery condition. Use
the Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool to reset retarder autodetect or to manually select the presence of the retarder after the PCS5 circuit is repaired.
B. Oil Level Sensor (OLS)
NOTE: If an OLS is known to be present but has not been detected, a possible cause is that the transmission fluid level is too low. Determine the fluid level before beginning the OLS troubleshooting.
Oil level sensor autodetect will countdown for a maximum of 25 engine starts while recording detections of an OLS. The TCM monitors the OLS input voltage on wire 116. OLS input voltage must exceed a predetermined level for the TCM to record a detection. Additionally, OLS detection must occur within 12.5 seconds on any given engine start. An OLS will be identified as present and the OLS autodetect logic will stop once it is detected during any single engine start.
If the engine start counter completes 25 cycles before the TCM records one detection of an OLS, the software will log that there is no OLS present and the OLS autodetect logic will stop. Then the TCM concludes that no OLS is present.
No OLS diagnostics take place until the OLS is detected. Frequently test for the presence of oil level diagnostics if the transmission is known to contain an OLS. If an OLS is known to be present, but has not been detected, troubleshooting the OLS circuit is required. After the OLS circuit is repaired, reset autodetect or manually select the OLS function using the Allison DOC™ For PC–Service Tool.
C.Throttle Source
Throttle autodetect will increment a counter for a throttle source on each engine start during which the possible throttle source is detected. When the counter for any of the sources indicates five consecutive detections, the software will set a “confidence flag” to indicate that this is an available throttle source. Multiple throttle sources can be detected on a single engine start and multiple confidence flags can be set. There is no limit to the number of engine starts for autodetection of the throttle source until a confidence flag is set for a source. Once a confidence flag is set for any one of the sources, a counter begins to countdown for 15 additional engine starts. During the entire autodetect period, the software will use the highest priority source as the throttle source if multiple sources are detected before any confidence flags are set. Once a confidence flag is set, that source is used as the source for the throttle signal. When the countdown period is complete, the software will use the highest priority throttle source having a confidence flag set and the autodetect logic will stop.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
D.Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine coolant temperature sensor autodetect will countdown for a total of 25 engine starts while recording detections of engine coolant temperature sources. A “confidence flag” will be set once a source is detected for five consecutive engine starts. Multiple sources detected before a confidence flag is set or multiple confidence flags will result in the highest priority source being used as the engine coolant temperature source. Multiple sources can be detected on a single engine start cycle.
1–10. TRANSID (TID)
The TransID feature enables the TCM to recognize various transmission hardware configurations and select an appropriate software calibration. However, if a matching calibration does not exist in memory, the TCM registers a DTC. Furthermore, TID only works when the controller and transmission have the same generation controls. Thus, TID will not allow an Allison 4th Generation TCM to recognize a transmission with WTEC III controls, nor will TID allow a WTEC III ECU to recognize a transmission with Allison 4th Generation Controls.
The TCM senses the transmission configuration using TID wire 176. In initial versions of Allison 4th Generation Controls, wire 176 is connected to high side driver 1 (HSD1), wire 111, in the internal wiring harness. HSD1 supplies power to PCS6 and MAIN MOD solenoids. This wiring configuration is designated TID A.
Whenever a TID level change is to be made, the new TID level calibration will be added to the PROM Calibration Configurator System (PCCS) before the change (s) is (are) made in production to the transmissions. All TCMs programmed and sold after that date will be loaded with the new TID calibration. These TCMs will contain calibrations for the new level transmission and all previous TID levels and will automatically load the correct calibration for the transmission based on the TID signal sensed by Autodetect during the first 25 engine starts.
