CODE 28, TRANS. RANGE PRESSURE SWITCH

Transmission range pressure switch assembly consists of 5 pressure switches (2 normally closed, 3 normally open), and a fluid temperature sensor combined into one unit and mounted on the valve body. PCM supplies voltage to each range signal. By grounding one or more of these circuits through various combinations of pressure switches, PCM detects which manual valve position has been selected. With ignition on and engine off, Park/Neutral will be indicated. Code 28 will set when range signals "A" and "C" are both zero volts (on) for 2 seconds.

Note. Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.

  1. Checks indicated range signal to valve position signal actually selected.
  2. Checks for correct voltage from PCM to transmission external connector.
  3. Checks for short to ground in any one of the 3 valve position circuits.

Code will set if PCM detects one of 2 illegal combinations. Check all connections for good contact.
