GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1–2. ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU)

The ECU (Figure 1–3) contains the microcomputer which is the brain of the control system. The ECU receives and processes information defining: shift selector position, throttle position, sump temperature, input speed, turbine speed, and transmission output speed. The ECU uses the information to control transmission solenoids and valves, supply system status, and provide diagnostic information.
Each ECU has a date code stamped on the label which is attached to the outer case of the ECU. This is the date when the ECU passed final test. This date is commonly used to denote the change configuration level of the ECU. It is normal for the ECU date displayed electronically to be a few days prior to the date shown on the label.

1–3. SHIFT SELECTOR

Pushbutton and lever shift selectors for CEC 2 are remote mounted from the ECU and connected to the ECU by a wiring harness. Both of these shift selectors have a single digit LED 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 code 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 is a full-function pushbutton shift selector. A full-function shift selector has a MODE button and diagnostic display capability through the single digit LED display. 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.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
B. Lever Shift Selector (Figure 1–5)
The lever shift selector can have as many as six forward range positions, as well as two R (Reverse) positions ( R1 and R2 ) 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 information is obtained from the single digit LED display by pressing the “display mode” button.

Figure 1–5. Typical Lever Shift Selector

1–4. THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (Figure 1–6)

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 ECU through the external harness. The voltage signal indicates the throttle position and, in combination with other input data, determines shift timing.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1–5. SPEED SENSORS

(Figure 1–7)
Three speed sensors — input speed, turbine speed, and output speed — provide information to the ECU. The input speed signal is generated by the gear teeth on the top PTO gear . The turbine speed signal is generated by serrations on the pitot can attached to the splitter low drum. The output speed signal is generated by a toothed member attached to the output shaft. The speed ratios between the various speed sensors allow the ECU to determine if the transmission is in the selected range. Hydraulic problems are detected by comparing the speed sensor information for the current range to that range’s speed sensor information stored in the ECU memory.

The CEC 2 electro-hydraulic valve bodies contain v arious solenoids to control the absence or presence of solenoid pressure. Solenoid pressure, or lack of pressure, positions shift valves which apply or release transmission clutches to produce the range commanded by the ECU inputs. The ECU is connected to the solenoids by a wiring harness with sealed multi-pin twist-lock connectors at the control valve bodies.

3 — BASIC KNOWLEDGE

3–1. BASIC KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED

T o service CEC 2, the technician must understand basic electrical concepts. Technicians need to know how to use a volt/ohmmeter (VOM) to mak e resistance and continuity checks. Most troubleshooting checks consist of checking resistance, continuity, and checking for shorts between wires and to ground. The technician should be able to use jumper wires and breakout harnesses and connectors. Technicians unsure of making the required checks should ask questions of experienced personnel or find instruction.
The technician should also have the mechanical aptitude required to connect pressure gauges or transducers to identified pressure ports used in the troubleshooting process. Pressure tap locations and pressure values are shown in the Service Manual for the transmission being checked.
Input power , ground, neutral start circuitry, etc., can cause problems with electronic controls or vehicle functioning and may not generate a diagnostic code. A working knowledge of CEC 2 vehicle installation is necessary in troubleshooting installation-related problems.
Refer to Section 8 for information concerning performance complaints (non-code) troubleshooting. A complete wiring schematic is shown in Appendix G. Refer to the CEC 2 Controls and Off-Highway Sales Tech Data Book (SA3227EN) for information concerning electronic controls installation and the Installation Checklist. Reliable transmission operation and performance depend upon a correctly installed transmission. Also review the Installation Checklist in the Off-Highway Sales Tech Data Book (SA1861EN) to ensure proper installation.

3–2. USING THE TROUBLESHOO TING MANU AL

Use this manual as an aid to troubleshooting CEC 2. Every possible problem and its solution cannot be encompassed by any manual. Howe ver , this manual does pro vide a starting point from which most problems can be resolved.

3–3. SYSTEM OVERVIEW

CEC 2 functions are controlled by the ECU. The ECU reads shift selector range selection, output speed, and throttle position to determine when to command a shift. When a shift occurs, the ECU monitors turbine speed, output speed, and throttle position during the shift.
When the ECU detects an electrical fault, it logs a diagnostic code indicating the faulty circuit and may alter the transmission operation to prevent or reduce damage.
When the ECU detects a non-electrical problem while trying to make a shift, the ECU may try that shift a second or third time before setting a diagnostic code. Once that shift has been retried, and a fault is still detected, the ECU sets a diagnostic code and holds the transmission in a lock-to-range mode of operation.

3–4. IMPORTANT INFORMATION IN THE TROUBLESHOOTING PROCESS

Before beginning the troubleshooting process, read and understand the following:
CEC 2 wire identification presents the wire number followed by the ECU terminal source (i.e., 157-S30). If there is a letter suffix following the wire number, there is a splice between the ECU source and wire destination (i.e., 116A-T19).
Shut off the engine and ignition before any harness connectors are disconnected or connected.
Remember to do the following when checking for shorts and opens:
Shorts: Minimize movement of wiring harnesses when looking for shorts. Shorts involve wire-to-
wire or wire-to-ground contacts and moving the harnesses may eliminate the problem.
Opens: Wiggle connectors, harnesses, and splices when looking for opens. This simulates vehicle
movements which occur during actual operation.
When disconnecting a harness connector, be sure that pulling force is applied to the connector itself and
not the wires extending from the connector.
Resistance checks involving the wiring between the ECU connectors and other components adds about one ohm of resistance to the component resistance shown.
Inspect all connector terminals for damage. Terminals may have bent or lost the necessary tension to maintain firm contact.
Clean dirty terminals or connectors with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab, or a good quality, non­residue, non-lubricating, cleaning solvent such as LPS Electro Contact Cleaner Electro Contact Cleaner

Cleaner trapped in the connector can affect the connector seal. (Refer to SIL 17-TR-94 for detailed information on the recommended cleaners.)
5. If all connectors are clean and connected correctly, determine which wires in the chassis harness are indicated by the diagnostic code. For example, Code 45 12, indicates a failure in the F solenoid circuit — wires 102-T1 and 120-T4.
a. Check continuity of wires 102-T1 and 120-T4 by performing the following (refer to Figure 4–1):
(1) Disconnect the blue “T” connector from the ECU and disconnect the harness from the
transmission main connector. At one end of the harness, using jumper wire kit J 39197 and connector probes in J 39775-CP, connect wire 102-T1 and 120-T4 to each other, being careful not to distort the terminals. Jumping the wires together creates a circuit between wires 102-T1 and 120-T4.

tested and touch the other probe to each terminal in the connector and to chassis ground and the transmission main housing. Do this for both wires in the circuit being tested.
(2) If the VOM shows zero to low resistance, or the continuity beeper sounds, there is a short
between the two points being probed, wire-to-wire or wire-to-ground. An indication of a short may be caused by a splice to the wire being checked. Check the wiring diagram in Appendix G for splice locations. If the short is not a splice, then isolate and repair the short.

5–1. DIAGNOSTIC CODE MEMORY

Diagnostic codes are logged in a list in memory (sometimes referred to as the queue), listing the most recently occurring code first and logging up to five codes. The codes contained in the list have information recorded as shown in the table below (codes are examples). Access to the code list position, main code, subcode and active indicator is through either the shift selector display or the Pro-Link® diagnostic tool. Access to ignition cycle counter and event counter information is through the diagnostic tool only. Further detail on the use of Pro-Link

If the code reappears, refer to the Diagnostic Code section (Paragraph 5–5) and the appropriate code chart. The Diagnostic Code section lists diagnostic codes and their description. Locate the appropriate troubleshooting chart and follow the instructions.
If the code does not reappear, it may be an intermittent problem. Use the Pro-Link
®
and the code display procedure described in Paragraph 5–2. The code display procedure will indicate the number of times the diagnostic code has occurred. Refer to the troubleshooting chart for possible cause(s) of the problem.
Appendix A deals with the identification of potential circuit problems. Refer to Appendix A if a circuit problem is suspected.
NOTE: Information concerning specific items is contained in the appendices located in the back of this
manual. The appendices are referred to throughout the manual.
B. Wire/Terminal Numbering Scheme
CEC 2 wire identification presents the wire number followed by the ECU terminal source (i.e., 157-S30). This is done to indicate the ECU connector and terminal origination for CEC 2. If there is a letter suffix following the wire number, there is a splice between the ECU source and wire destination (i.e., 116A-T19).

Manual Self-clearing
B. Troubleshooting:
1. Connect the diagnostic tool and turn on vehicle ignition. Select Diagnostic Data to find input voltage. Record reading.
2. Turn off vehicle ignition and remove the connectors from the ECU.
3. Check system voltage at wire 136A and 136C, pin V1 and V16. If power is low or high at this point, and the diagnostic tool reading is also low or high, the vehicle wiring is suspect. Check for fuse problems, lack of battery-direct power and ground, faulty charging system/batteries, and loose or dirty connections (see Appendix A). Power may also be low or high at pins V1 and V16 (system power) if the batteries/charging system is faulty. Bad grounds may also cause incorrect input power readings.
4. If power is correct but the diagnostic tool reading indicates incorrect voltage, closely inspect terminals V1 and V16 or S16; make sure they are not corroded or deformed. Clean or replace as necessary (see Appendix C, Paragraph 1–1).
5. If the voltage condition is intermittent, closely inspect the vehicle wiring for transmission system power and grounds. Check for loose, dirty, or painted connections. Check the VIM for loose, incorrect, or overheating relays or fuses (refer to Appendix E). Check for wires that are chafed and touching other components.
6. If no other cause is found, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works,

CODE 21 XX THROTTLE F AUL T (Figure 5–2)
DIAGNOSTIC CODES
The throttle sensor must have been recognized by autodetect or manually selected using the Pro-Link® (see CEC 2 Pro-Link
®
Manual) before these codes can be logged. See Paragraph 1–9 for further information.
Main code 21 indicates the throttle position sensor has been retracted or extended by its linkage into an error zone. This may be due to a fault with the sensor, or a fault in the wiring to the sensor or to the ECU. Code 21 12 is set when the ECU receives TPS counts of 14 or less. Code 21 23 is set when the ECU senses TPS counts of 233–255. Whenever a code 21 XX condition is detected, the system uses default throttle values.
NOTE: Code 21 XX in conjunction with code 33 XX indicates the potential loss of common ground wire 135
between the throttle and temperature sensor.
Main Code Subcode Meaning
21 12 Throttle position sensor failed low 21 23 Throttle position sensor failed high
A. Active Indicator Clearing Procedure:
Power down
Manual
Self-clearing
NOTE: Before troubleshooting, read Paragraph 5–6. Also, check the ECU input voltage.
B. Troubleshooting:
1. Plug in the DDR, select Diagnostic Data, and read throttle counts and percent. If the TPS failed high (code 21 23), the problem may be toward the full throttle end of the TPS travel. If the TPS failed low (code 21 12), the problem may be at the closed throttle end of the TPS travel.
NOTE: Code 21 12 may occur when the throttle source is J1587 or J1939 and an analog throttle source is
falsely detected. This condition may be due to a problem in an unused TPS branch of a universal external harness. To prevent this occurrence, remove wire 156 from the ECU connector and insert a cavity plug in the space vacated by the wire. Be sure that the unused TPS branch is routed away from potential induced voltage sources and the connector is protected from external contamination.
NOTE: Code 21 12 can result when the +5V line (wire 124) which powers the analog sensor is shorted to
ground. Wire 124 also powers the shift selector and is present in all three ECU connectors.
2. If counts are high but the percentage never reaches 100 percent, TPS linkage may have bound up and overstroked the TPS to set a false 100 percent reading. After TPS overstroking ceases, the TPS will not automatically return to 100 percent. After the TPS is correctly installed and adjusted, use the Pro-Link
®
to reset throttle calibration or cycle the ignition 5 times to reset the 0 percent and 100 percent settings. See the TPS section of this book (Appendix D) for installation and ad­justment procedures.

CODE 21 XX THROTTLE F AUL T (Figure 5–2)
3. If the throttle counts do not change or are erratic, check the throttle sensor wiring for opens, shorts between wires, or shorts-to-ground. Also check for correct TPS voltages using test wiring harness J 41339. If wiring problems are found, isolate and repair the fault (refer to Appendix C for repair information).
4. If the wiring is satisfactory , replace the throttle position sensor and adjust its linkage so the counts are not in the error zones (see Appendix D).
5. If the throttle sensor and its linkage adjustment are correct and the wiring to the sensor is satisfac­tory, the condition is intermittent. Replace the sensor and properly adjust the new sensor.
6. If the condition recurs, use a spare wire, if available, or provide a new wire (St. Clair P/N 200153 may be used for this purpose) for the throttle sensor circuit. See Appendix C for connector repair information.
7. If the condition persists, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works, in­spect the ECU connectors for any corrosion or damage which may cause an intermittent condition. If the original problem recurs, reinstall the replacement ECU.
NOTE: A good throttle position sensor should have resistance of:
(1) 9000–15,000 Ohms across terminals A and C.
DIAGNOSTIC CODES
(2) 500 Ohms, moving to 9000–15,000 Ohms as TPS is moved from the fully retracted to the
fully extended position (measured across terminals A and B).

CODE 22 XX SPEED SENSOR/CIRCUITRY FAULT (Figure 5–3)
Main code 22 indicates a fault within a speed sensor, the wiring to a speed sensor, incorrect speed sensor gap, or damaged bumps or teeth which create the speed signal. This fault is determined by the reasonableness of a speed sensor signal when compared with the other two speed sensors and the commanded range. A speed sensor will not pass the reasonableness test if there is no signal at all from that sensor when a signal should be present.
NOTE: If the input (engine) speed sensor code (22 14) is active and a range verification test is failed, the range
verification code will not be set but a DO NOT SHIFT response is commanded.

DIAGNOSTIC CODES
B. Troubleshooting:
1. Check to see if the sensor is loose, missing, or disconnected. If not, disconnect the wiring harness from the sensor and measure the resistance of the sensor (see chart below). Also check the termi­nals for dirt, corrosion, or damage. If resistance is not correct, replace the sensor.
Resistance Temp ˚C Temp ˚F
200 –40 –40 300 20 68 400 110 230
2. Remove the transmission harness connector from the ECU. Check the sensor circuit (in the exter­nal harness) for open wires, shorts between wires, or shorts-to-ground. Isolate and repair any faults (refer to Appendix C for repair information).
3. If no opens or shorts are found, the condition must be intermittent. Replace the sensor indicated by the trouble code. Before replacing a speed sensor, check the sensor for physical damage or contamination. Refer to the appropriate transmission Service Manual for proper replacement procedure.
4. If the condition recurs, install new wiring (twisted-pair) for the sensor circuit between the ECU and the transmission. Use St. Clair P/N 200153 Service Harness Twisted Pair for this purpose.

CODE 22 XX SPEED SENSOR/CIRCUITRY FAULT (Figure 5–3)
5. If the condition again recurs, connect the diagnostic tool and select the speed signal indicated by the trouble code. Drive the vehicle and w atch the speed reading on the diagnostic tool. If the signal is erratic, sensor gap, vehicle vibration, an external AC signal source, or intermittent connector contact may be inducing the erratic signal. Inspect the sensor and its surroundings for irregularities that would affect sensor gap. Isolate and correct any abnormal vehicle vibrations (particularly driveline and abnormal engine torsionals, see the Off-Highway Sales Tech Data Book (SA1861EN), Applications Manual, Section C). Recheck the sensor wiring for intermittent conditions (see Appendix A).
6. If the condition persists, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works, inspect the ECU connectors for any corrosion or damage which may cause an intermittent condition. If the original problem recurs, reinstall the replacement ECU.

CODE 24 XX SUMP FLUID TEMPERATURE (Figure 5–5)
Main code 24 indicates the ECU has detected either a high or low fluid temperature in the transmission (via the sump temperature sensor in the internal lockup valve body harness). All shifts are inhibited when code 24 12 is set (only Neutral range operation is allowed). No upshifts are allowed above a calibration range when code 24 23 is set. All inhibits are cleared when the temperature conditions are normal. A related code is 33 12 which indicates a temperature reading outside the usable range of the sensor and indicates a probable sensor failure.
Detailed troubleshooting information for the sump thermistor is shown in Appendix L.

DIAGNOSTIC CODES
Code 24 12:
1. If the outside temperature is between –25˚F (–32˚C) and +20˚F (–7˚C), the ECU will allow re- verse, neutral, and limited forward drive operation. Only hold override upshifts are allowed. (See Table 5–4 on next page.) The sump must be warmed to an acceptable temperature to avoid logging codes and transmission diagnostic response.
NOTE: Code 24 12 can result when the +5V line (wire 147) which powers the sump temperature sensor is
shorted to ground.
2. After allowing the temperatures to normalize, if ambient temperature does not match the sump temperature reading (check using diagnostic tool), compare resistance versus sump fluid temper­ature. Refer to Appendix L. If resistance check is acceptable, then check the sensor wiring for opens, shorts, or shorts-to-ground.
3. If the sensor wiring is satisfactory, remove the lockup body cover and replace the temperature sensor which is in the internal lockup harness (refer to appropriate transmission Service Manual).
4. If the condition persists, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works, inspect the ECU connectors for any corrosion or damage that may cause an intermittent condition. If the original problem recurs, reinstall the replacement ECU.

Code 24 23:
1. Install temperature gauges for transmission temperature and engine water temperature. Drive the vehicle. Verify that the code can be reproduced and verify the reading shown on the diagnostic tool. Observe the gauges and check for hot fluid when the code is produced.
2. If the fluid is not hot when the code is produced, remove the transmission “T” harness connector at the ECU and the transmission. Check the fluid temperature sensor wiring for opens, shorts, and shorts-to-ground. Compare the resistance readings of the sensor and the actual temperature shown on the gauge with the chart information in Figure 5–6. If wiring problems or a great difference between temperature and resistance compared with the chart are found, remove the lockup valve body cover and replace the temperature sensor which is part of the internal lockup harness (refer to the Service Manual for the transmission being checked). If wiring problems are found, repair or replace as necessary.

3. If the fluid is hot when the code is produced, observe the gauges to see if the engine became hot before the transmission. If the engine cooling system is overheating and heating the transmission, the problem is with the engine or its cooling system.
4. If the transmission became hot before the engine, allow the vehicle to idle for 3–5 minutes and check the transmission fluid level. Correct the fluid level if necessary.
5. If no problems are found in the transmission, remove the transmission and disassemble, inspecting for causes of overheating (stuck stator, plugged orifices, dragging clutches, etc.). (See the Service Manual for the transmission being checked.)

CODE 25 XX — OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR, DETECTED AT ZERO SPEED,
X RANGE
Main code 25 occurs if the output speed sensor reports a zero speed reading while both engine and turbine speeds are approximately equal, turbine speed is above a calibration value, and neutral is not selected or commanded. Main code 25 indicates either the output speed sensor has failed or the required oncoming clutch or clutches did not come on. Code 25 11 can be generated by a false turbine speed reading. This may be due to crosstalk between solenoid and turbine speed sensor circuits caused by direct wire-to-wire short or by water in the electrical connectors. See Section 4 for corrective action.

B. Troubleshooting:
1. Check the transmission fluid level and ensure correct fluid level.
2. Check for the presence of code 22 16. If code 22 16 is in the code list, go to code 22 XX section and follow troubleshooting steps for code 22 16.
3. Connect the Pro-Link® 9000 with ignition on, engine off; check for indication of turbine speed. If turbine speed is indicated, refer to Paragraph 4–2 for corrective action.
4. This code requires accurate output and turbine speed readings. If there were no transmission prob­lems detected, use the diagnostic tool and watch the speed readings for noise (erratic signals) from low speed to high speed in the range indicated by the code.
5. If a noisy sensor is found, check the sensor resistance (refer to the sensor resistance chart below) and check its wiring for opens, shorts, and shorts-to-ground (see code 22 XX). Also closely check the terminals in the connectors for corrosion, contamination, or damage. Ensure the wiring to the sensors is a properly twisted wire pair.

CODE 26 XX — THROTTLE SOURCE NOT DETECTED
Main code 26 occurs when the ECU has not detected a throttle source. This is a new code related to the autodetect feature which is described in Paragraph 1–9.
Main Code Subcode Meaning
26 00 Throttle source not detected
Code 26 00 means that the ECU has not detected the presence of engine throttle data or analog circuitry . For details about autodetect or using Pro-Link
®
to select a throttle source, see Paragraph 1–9 and the CEC 2 Pro-Link
®
Manual.
A. Active Indicator Clearing Procedure
Power down
Manual
B. Troubleshooting
1. When code 26 00 is logged and an analog TPS is known to be installed, refer to code 21 XX for troubleshooting steps. If a J1587 or J1939 throttle signal is used, refer to code 66 00 for trouble­shooting steps.
C. Autodetect Feature
Autodetect is active on the first 10
a
engine starts. Autodetect tak es place within the first 5–25
a
seconds of each engine start monitored. For CEC 2, autodetect searches for the presence of a throttle information source. Autodetect searches for a TPS (analog) source or a data link source via J1939 or J1587.
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 the Pro-
®
Link
. Using a CEC 2 compatible Pro-Link
®
Link
can also be used to override autodetect and manually enter the component or sensor to be
®
, select “RESET AUTODETECT.” The CEC 2 Pro-
recognized by the ECU by changing appropriate “customer modifiable constants”. The throttle source is the only customer modifiable constant (CMC) that is autodetected. Other CMCs can be changed at any time and are not related to autodetect. Consult the CEC 2 Pro-Link
®
manual for detailed instructions related to CEC 2 “customer modifiable constants.” Additional details for the autodetectable throttle feature is given below.
Whenever autodetect is functioning and no throttle source is found, a code 26 00 is logged. If a datalink throttle source (J1939 or J1587) is detected, autodetect stops looking for that function. However, if no analog throttle source was detected prior to engine start 10 engine starts 10
a
through a calibration number. Autodetect for analog throttle stops as soon as a
a
, autodetect continues for
device is detected or when the calibration number of starts is reached. If an analog throttle source is known to be present, but is not detected, troubleshooting of the analog throttle circuit is required. After the analog throttle circuit is repaired, reset autodetect or manually select the analog throttle function using the Pro-Link
®
. An engine throttle source must be present.
This is a programmed value subject to change.

CODE 33 XX — SUMP FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Detailed troubleshooting information for the sump temperature thermistor is shown in Figure 5–9. Main code 33 indicates the sump temperature sensor is providing a signal outside the usable range of the ECU.
This code indicates the sensor failed showing abnormally high or low temperature readings. Main code 33 can be caused by a component or circuit failure or by extremely high or low temperatures. There are no operational inhibits related to main code 33. The ECU assumes a hardware failure and that transmission temperatures are normal (200ºF; 93ºC). Temperatures above or below normal may cause inhibited range operation.
NOTE: Code 33 23 in conjunction with code 21 23 indicates the loss of common ground (wire 135) between
the throttle and temperature sensors.
Main Code Subcode Meaning
33 12 Sump oil temperature sensor failed low — –55ºF (–48ºC) 33 23 Sump oil temperature sensor failed high — 350ºF (177ºC)
A. Active Indicator Clearing Procedure:
Power down Manual
Self-clearing
(Figure 5–8)
NOTE: Before troubleshooting, read Paragraph 5–6. Also, check the transmission fluid level.
B. Troubleshooting:
NOTE: Code 33 12 can be caused when the +5V power line (wire 147) is shorted to ground or open.
1. If possible, check the sump temperature with a DDR. Use the fastest sample rate available on the
DDR
This is necessary to catch momentary changes due to an intermittent open or short to
.
ground. If a DDR is not available, use the shift selector display to determine if the code is active (refer to Paragraph 5–2). Disconnect the transmission “T” harness at the ECU and check resistance of the sensor and compare with Figure 5–9 or Appendix L.
2. If Step (1) reveals that the extreme temperature indication is no longer present, the temperature
limit could have been reached due to operational or ambient temperature extremes. Also, you may be experiencing an intermittent problem and the code will not be active. Proceed cautiously, it is unlikely there is a sensor hardware fault.
3. Disconnect the external harness at the transmission. Check the connectors and terminals for dirt,
corrosion, or damage. Clean or replace as necessary.
4. Check the sensor wires in the external harness for opens (code 33 23), shorts between wires, or
shorts-to-ground (code 33 12 — refer to Section 4). If wiring problems are found, isolate and re­pair as described in Appendix C.
5. Check for chafing of the sensor wires. Eliminate the chafe point. If no chafe point is found, replace
the sensor (refer to the Transmission Service Manual and Appendix C, Paragraph 1–2 in this manual).

NOTE: Intermittent connections or lack of battery-direct power and ground connections may cause this and
other codes.
NOTE: Before troubleshooting, read Paragraph 5–6. Also, check battery and ECU input voltages.
PROBING THE CONNECTOR
When testing the control system with the internal harness connected, the resistance of each solenoid can be checked using a VOM.
B. Troubleshooting:
1. Check the valve body connector and make sure it is tightly connected. Clean or replace as necessary (Appendix C).
2. If the connector is connected, clean, and not damaged, check the solenoid circuit in the valve body for opens. Refer to the system schematic and/or chart to identify wires in the internal har­ness which are connected. If the open circuit is found, replace the faulty component (see the transmission Service Manual), and eliminate the open. The fault may be in the solenoid itself.
3. If the open is not found at the transmission connector, disconnect the transmission harness connector at the ECU and inspect the terminals in the connector and the ECU for damage or contamination. Clean or replace as necessary. If the terminals are satisfactory, check the wires of the solenoid circuit in the transmission harness for continuity. If the open is found in one of the wires, isolate and repair it. If this is not feasible, use a spare wire, if available, or provide a new wire (St. Clair P/N 200153 may be used for this purpose). See Appendix C for information on connector/wire repair.

4. If multiple code 45s occur (45 12, 45 13, 45 14, 45 15, 45 22, and 45 24), and wiring and solenoids check okay, a common solenoid driver is probably failed open.
5. Replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the problem recurs, reinstall the new ECU to complete the repair.
6. If code 45 21 occurs repeatedly and the H/J solenoid and wiring checks okay, the solenoid driver may be failed open. Follow Step (5) above.
7. If codes 45 16, 45 23, and 45 26 occur repeatedly and solenoids and wiring check okay, the sole­noid driver may be failed open. Follow Step (5) above.
8. If the open is not found in either the transmission or the harness or the ECU drivers, the condition must be intermittent.
9. Use a spare wire, if available, or provide a new wire (St. Clair P/N 200153 may be used for this purpose) for the solenoid circuit indicated by the diagnostic code. See Appendix C for information on connector assembly/disassembly.
10. If the condition persists, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works, inspect the ECU connectors for any corrosion or damage which may cause an intermittent condition. If the original problem recurs, reinstall the replacement ECU.
(Figure 5–11)
11. If condition persists, remove the solenoid cover and closely inspect the solenoid and internal harness for damage. Repair or replace as necessary (refer to the transmission Service Manual).

CODE 56 XX — RANGE VERIFICATION RATIO TEST (BETWEEN SHIFTS)
Main code 56 indicates a failed range verification speed sensor ratio test. The ratio test occurs after a shift and determines if a clutch has lost torque carrying capability. If output speed is above programmed output speed for a range but the correct speed sensor ratio is not present, the which can carry the torque without damage is commanded or attempted. T urbine and output speed sensor readings are used to calculate the actual ratio that is compared to the commanded ratio.

NOTE: When a code 22 16 (output speed fault) is also present, follow the troubleshooting sequence for code
22 16 first. After completing the 22 16 sequence, drive the vehicle to see if a code 56 XX recurs. NOTE: Before troubleshooting, read Paragraph 5–6. Also, check battery and ECU input voltages. NOTE: Intermittent connections or lack of battery-direct power and ground connections may cause this and
other codes.
B. Troubleshooting:
1. After the transmission is at operating temperature, allow vehicle engine to idle on lev el ground for 3–4 minutes. Check the transmission fluid level. If improper fluid level is found, correct as necessary. Improper fluid level could be the cause of the code. Not enough or too much fluid may produce inadequate clutch pressure.
2. This code requires accurate output and turbine speed readings. If there were no transmission prob­lems detected, use the diagnostic tool and check the speed sensor signals for noise (erratic signals) from low speed to high speed in the range indicated by the code.
3. If a noisy sensor is found, check the resistance of the sensor (refer to the temperature variation chart below) and its wiring for opens, shorts, and shorts-to-ground (refer to code 22 XX). Care­fully check the terminals in the connectors for corrosion, contamination, or damage. Ensure the wiring to the sensors is a properly twisted wire pair. Replace a speed sensor if its resistance is in­correct. Isolate and repair any wiring problems. (Use a twisted-pair if a new speed sensor circuit is needed — Service Harness Twisted Pair P/N 200153 is available from St. Clair Technologies for this purpose.)

4. If no apparent cause for the code can be found, replace the turbine and output speed sensors (refer to the transmission Service Manual for proper procedure).
5. If the condition persists, replace the ECU. If replacing the ECU corrects the problem, reinstall the original (bad) ECU to confirm that the problem is in the ECU. If the original ECU now works, in­spect the ECU connectors for any corrosion or damage which may cause an intermittent condition. If the original problem recurs, reinstall the replacement ECU.
6. Connect a pressure gauge and check main pressure. If the pressure is not adequate, the pump is probably worn. See Service Manual for main pressure specifications.
7. If main pressure is adequate, check clutch pressure for the range indicated by following the procedure in the Service Manual. The transmission range indicated by the trouble code can be found by referring to the solenoid and clutch chart on the hydraulic schematic in Appendix F. Drive the vehicle or use the diagnostic tool’s clutch test mode and check clutch pressure.
8. If a clutch is leaking pressure, remove the main control valve body and check for damaged valve body gaskets and stuck or sticking valves (see the transmission Service Manual). If no problems are found, replace the solenoids for the clutches used in the range indicated by the code.
9. If replacing solenoids does not correct the pressure problem, a worn clutch or worn piston seals are probably the source of the pressure leak. Remove the transmission and repair or replace as necessary (refer to the transmission Service Manual).

The datalink for throttle sensor must have been recognized by autodetect or manually selected using the Pro-Link® (see CEC 2 Pro-Link
®
Manual) before these codes can be logged. See Paragraph 1–9 for further information.
Main code 66 indicates the ECU is expecting to get its throttle position signal across a serial communication interface from a computer-controlled engine. Either the engine computer is not sending the throttle information or the wiring between the engine and transmission computers has failed.
Code 66 00 can occur when the transmission ECU remains powered when the engine ECM is powered down. The transmission sees this as a communication link failure.
A. Active Indicator Clearing Procedure:

B. Troubleshooting:
1. Check for a throttle signal from the engine to the transmission, an engine computer malfunction, or an engine throttle fault.
NOTE: Throttle position data sent from a computer-controlled engine may register a low number of counts
on the DDR, but the counts will not change as throttle percentage is changed.
2. Check wires 142 and 151 between the engine and transmission ECU for an open or short. Check that all connectors are clean and tightly connected.
NOTE: These codes can also be set if J1939 communications fail. Check wires 183-S13, 184-S29, and 182-S12
for opens or shorts.

Ignition power is wired through the VIM, via a 10 amp fuse.
It can also be interfaced via the VIW-S connector.
Positive voltage should be supplied to the ECU when the vehicle ignition switch is turned on.
The signal turns the ECU from its power-down state to on when the proper ECU parameters are met.
At this point, the ECU reads calibration data in memory, checks all sensors for readiness, then
commands the control module to initialize the transmission and shift selector in neutral.
Throttle position calibration is adjusted as necessary from stored data.

7 — INPUT AND OUTPUT FUNCTIONS
The CEC 2 System Wiring Schematic in Appendix G includes wiring requirements for input and output functions. Specific wire numbers are designated for activation of these functions. Appendix K includes specific input and output function wiring schematics and a brief description of each function. The wiring schematics in Appendices G and K should be used for reference only. These schematics show the intended use of the function specified. These functions have only been validated (tested) in the configuration shown. ANY USE OF THESE FUNCTIONS WHICH DIFFERS FROM WHAT IS SHOWN IS NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ALLISON TRANSMISSION.
The Pro-Link® 9000 can be utilized to verify (determine) which wire is programmed for each function.

7–1. INPUT FUNCTIONS

Input functions are signals sent into the ECU that prompt the ECU to take action. Input functions are activated and deactivated by switched ignition power or ground to the ECU (wired through the VIW) or through the button on the shift selector.
Activating an input function can inhibit transmission operation in the same manner as a diagnostic code. Use the Pro-Link
®
9000 to verify an active input function inhibit. Refer to the Pro-Link® 9000 Diagnostic Tool Operator’s
Manual for further information regarding special input functions and other inhibits.
CAUTION:
Never use chassis ground as an voltage potential of 1 or 2 volts above battery ground. This non-approved input will “confuse” the ECU and cause erroneous input results. Be sure to use wire 161 which is
INPUT FUNCTION
ground. Chassis ground can carry
signal ground.
