Test readings, control module connections


Scope

The following pages contain specified values and directions for measuring signals and levels on the transmission control module.

Points to remember


Measurements are to be carried out using a Breakout Box (BOB) connected between the control module and its connector.

A test reading of 12 V is to be regarded as a voltage level, not an absolute value. For instance, in the case of solenoid 1-2/3-4 (S1) (pin 1), solenoid 2-3 (S2) (pin 3) and solenoid lock-up (SL) (pin 19), about 0.7-1.5 V is lost internally in the control module. Readings taken across these pins and ground (pin 35) will then show current battery voltage less 0.7-1.5 V, which is indicated in the table below.

A test reading of 0 V is to be regarded as a voltage level and not an absolute value. Where the DRIVE signal (pin 11) is concerned, in the worst case about 0.5-1.5 V will be lost internally in the control module. A reading taken across the relevant control module pin and ground (pin 35) will then show less than 1.5 V, which is indicated as 0 V in the table below.

Test readings should always be used with discrimination. All test readings are approximate.

Test readings %%(+) and ms(+) indicate the signal's pulse ratio and pulse duration. A test instrument capable of measuring pulse ratio and pulse width must be used. The sign denotes a positive trigger pulse, TRIG+.

All test readings are in respect of a warmed-up engine/transmission.

The specified test readings refer to those obtained with a calibrated Fluke 88/97.
