TRANSMISSION APPLICATIONS

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION

The first step in diagnosing any driveability problem is verifying the customer's complaint with a test drive under the conditions the problem reportedly occurred. Before entering self-diagnostics, perform a careful and complete visual inspection. Most transmission control problems result from mechanical breakdowns or poor electrical connections. All models use OBD-II Electronic Engine Control-V (EEC-V) system. For additional information on the EEC-V system, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - EEC-V article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE.

Input signals from sensors are sent to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM can determine when the time and conditions are right for a shift or converter clutch application. The PCM can also determine line pressure needed to optimize shift feel.

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM

Note. For engine related DTCs, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - EEC-V article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. These DTCs pertain to engine performance and must be repaired first, as engine performance and related component signals will affect transmission operation and diagnosis.

Diagnostic Formats

QUICK TEST and SYSTEM TESTS are diagnostic formats used to test and service EEC-V system. QUICK TEST allows technician to identify problems and retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). SYSTEM TESTS check circuits, sensors and actuators.

Before starting any SYSTEM TEST, follow all steps in QUICK TEST to find correct SYSTEM TEST. If vehicle passes QUICK TEST and no driveability symptoms or intermittent faults exist, EEC-V system is okay.

Retrieving Codes

Fault codes are retrieved from EEC-V system through Data Link Connector (DLC). (Scheme 126) DLC is located below instrument panel, to left of steering column. Self-diagnostic test procedures are for use with New Generation Star (NGS) scan tool. If a generic scan tool is used, ensure tool is certified OBD-II standard and refer to scan tool manufacturers operating procedures.

Scheme 126

Scheme 126: Retrieving Codes

Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC)

During QUICK TEST, 3 types of DTCs are retrieved: KOEO, KOER and Continuous Memory Codes. See QUICK TEST for self-test procedures. Codes may be cleared from PCM memory after they have been recorded or repaired. See CLEARING CODES .

KOEO & KOER Codes (Hard Faults)

These codes indicate faults are present at time of testing. A hard fault may cause CHECK ENGINE or Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to go on and remain on until fault is repaired. If KOEO or KOER codes are retrieved during KOEO SELF-TEST or KOER SELF-TEST, use DTC IDENTIFICATION table to find correct testing and repair procedures.

Continuous Memory Codes (Intermittent Faults)

CAUTIONContinuous memory codes should be recorded when retrieved. These codes may be used to identify intermittent problems that exist after all KOEO and KOER codes have been repaired. Some Continuous Memory Code faults may not be valid after KOEO and KOER codes are serviced.

These codes are used to diagnose intermittent problems. Continuous memory codes are retrieved after KOEO SELF-TEST. These codes indicate a fault that may or may not be present at time of testing.

After noting and/or repairing fault, clear codes from memory. See CLEARING CODES . Intermittent faults may be caused by a sensor, connector or wiring-related problem.

POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)

The PCM is located on center of firewall in engine compartment. PCM controls transmission operation through 5 electronic solenoids consisting of 4 On/Off solenoids for shifting and torque converter clutch control and one variable force solenoid for line pressure control. All components are part of the transmission solenoid body and are not serviceable individually. The PCM has built-in self-diagnostic capability, fail-safe code and warning code display for the main input sensors and solenoid valves.

Accelerator Pedal (AP) Sensor (7.3L DI Diesel Only)

Accelerator Pedal (AP) sensor is mounted on accelerator pedal on models with 7.3L diesel engines only. The AP sensor detects position of accelerator pedal and sends information back to PCM as a voltage signal. If AP sensor or related circuits fail, PCM recognizes a fault and boosts line pressure to prevent damage to transmission. This will create harsher upshifts and engagements.

Air Conditioning Clutch (ACC) Switch

On factory installed A/C system, PCM receives signal voltage from ACC switch indicating that the air conditioning compressor clutch is engaged. The PCM uses the ACC switch signal to adjust line pressure to compensate for additional engine load. If the ACC switch fails with closed contacts, line pressure will be slightly lower with air conditioning off. If the ACC switch fails with open contacts, line pressure will be slightly higher with air conditioning on.

Anti-Lock Brake Speed Sensor

The Programmable Speedometer/Odometer Module (PSOM) receives input from rear anti-lock brake speed sensor, which is located on rear axle housing assembly. The PSOM then relays the signal to PCM and speed control module.

Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor (7.3L DI Diesel Only)

The PCM uses signal from BARO sensor to determine altitude at which vehicle is operating. PCM then adjusts EPC pressure and shift scheduling to the altitude.

Brake Pedal Position (BPP) Switch

The PCM receives a signal from the BPP switch when the brake switch is operated. Torque converter clutch is disengaged when brakes are applied. Malfunctioning switch will affect torque converter operation. BPP switch may also be known as the Brake On/Off (BOO) Switch.

Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor (7.3L DI Diesel Only)

On 7.3L DI diesel engines, the CMP sensor provides engine RPM information to PCM. The RPM input signal is used to determine shift scheduling and EPC pressure.

Digital Transmission Range (TR) Sensor

The TR sensor is located on outside of transmission at manual lever. The TR sensor opens or closes a set of 4 switches that are monitored by the PCM. The internal switch signal corresponds with position of the shift selector lever. The TR sensor completes the neutral/start and back-up lights circuits. It also provides a Neutral signal for Generic Electronic Module (GEM) control of 4WD Low engagement on 4WD vehicles. Malfunction of the TR sensor may cause harsh engagements and firm shift feel. Improper shifting or shift selection and no engine cranking may also result.

Profile Ignition Pick-up (PIP)

The Ignition Control Module (ICM) generates a PIP signal (engine RPM) and sends it to PCM. The PIP determines transmission strategy, Wide Open Throttle (WOT) shift control, torque converter control and EPC pressure.

4WD Low (4WDL) Switch

Low range switch is located on transfer case cover. Switch modifies shift schedule for 4WD transfer case gear ratio. Early shifts will occur if switch fails in ON position. Delayed shifts will occur if switch fails in OFF position.

Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor

The IAT sensor is used to help determine Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) pressures.

Mass Airflow (MAF) Sensor

The MAF signal is used for Electronic Pressure Control (EPC), shift and TCC scheduling. Sensor malfunction will affect shift and TCC scheduling.

Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor (Gasoline Engines)

On gasoline engines, MAP sensor senses atmospheric pressure to produce an electrical signal. Frequency of this signal varies with intake manifold pressure. The PCM monitors this to determine altitude. The PCM adjusts shift scheduling and EPC pressure.

Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor

The OSS sensor is a magnetic pick-up that provides output shaft rotation speed to PCM. The OSS sensor is mounted externally on top of transmission case, near extension housing. PCM uses OSS sensor signal to help determine EPC pressure, shift scheduling and TCC operation.

Programmable Speedometer/Odometer Module (PSOM)

The PSOM receives input from rear anti-lock brake speed sensor, which is mounted on rear axle differential housing. Vehicle speed (MPH) signal is output to PCM. PSOM failure may cause harsh engagements, firm shift feel and abnormal shift scheduling. Unexpected downshifts may occur at closed throttle and abnormal TCC operation or engages at WOT. Transmission Control Indicator Light (TCIL) may flash.

Throttle Position (TP) Sensor

Note. On vehicles equipped with diesel engines, an Accelerator Pedal (AP) sensor is used. See Accelerator Pedal (AP) Sensor (7.3L DI Diesel Only) .

The TP sensor is a potentiometer mounted to the engine throttle body on gasoline engines. The PCM receives a signal from the TP sensor relaying throttle plate position. TP sensor failure will cause PCM to operate in fail safe mode and raise line pressure to prevent transmission damage. This condition will result in harsh engagements, firm shift feel, abnormal shift scheduling and TCC not engaging or cycling.

Transmission Control Switch (TCS) Or Transmission Control Indicator Lamp (TCIL)

TCS or TCIL is mounted on shift lever handle. Switch controls operation of 4th gear. TCIL indicates overdrive cancel mode activated (light on) and EPC circuit shorted (light flashing) or monitored sensor failure. Malfunction of switch will cause lack of 4th gear disable function.

Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor

The TFT sensor is located on the solenoid body assembly. The PCM monitors voltage across the TFT sensor to determine transmission temperature. Depending on temperature, the PCM controls Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) pressure, shift scheduling and TCC operation. TFT sensor inhibits TCC operation during warm-up and locks TCC if transmission fluid temperature is too high. Malfunction of sensor will cause incorrect line pressure and possible lack of TCC operation.

Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) Sensor

The TSS sensor is a magnetic pick-up that sends information on the rotation speed of the coast clutch drum to the PCM. The TSS sensor is mounted external on transmission case, near bellhousing. TSS sensor helps determine Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) pressure, shift scheduling, and TCC operation.

Coast Clutch Solenoid (CCS)

The coast clutch solenoid provides coast clutch control by shifting coast clutch shift valve. The CCS is activated by pressing the TCS or by selecting "1" or "2" with transmission shift selector lever. In manual "1" and "2" , coast clutch is controlled by solenoid and hydraulically as a fail-safe to ensure engine braking. In Reverse, coast clutch is controlled hydraulically and the CCS is NOT activated.

Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid

The EPC solenoid is a variable-force solenoid. The EPC receives signal from the PCM to control line pressure and line modulator pressure. If EPC fails in ON position, transmission is operated in fail-safe mode to avoid internal transmission damage.

  2. When shift solenoid is always OFF, failure could be due to PCM and/or vehicle wiring malfunction, and/or solenoid electrically, hydraulically or mechanically stuck off. For shift symptoms (Scheme 127)and (Scheme 128).
  3. When shift solenoid is always ON, failure could be due to PCM and/or vehicle wiring malfunction, and/or solenoid electrically, hydraulically or mechanically stuck off. For shift symptoms (Scheme 129)and (Scheme 130).

Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Solenoid

The TCC solenoid receives a signal from the PCM. The TCC solenoid controls application and release of torque converter clutch. If solenoid fails in ON position, engine will run rough (shudder) and engine stalls in Drive at idle, low speeds with brake applied, or in manual 2nd gear. If solenoid fails in OFF position, torque converter clutch will not engage. Transmission Control Indicator Light (TCIL) may flash.

VISUAL INSPECTION

Visually inspect all electrical wiring, looking for chafed, stretched, cut or pinched wiring. Ensure electrical connectors fit tightly and are not corroded. Ensure vacuum hoses are properly routed and are not pinched or cut. Check for non-factory installed equipment wired into transmission or PCM harness. Inspect air induction system for possible vacuum leaks. Check PCM, sensors and actuators for physical damage. Check engine coolant level. Check transmission fluid level and condition.

Depending on specific failure, a fault code may be set in PCM memory.

Hardware Limited Operational Strategy (HLOS)

If a number of system or sensor failures are present and PCM is not receiving enough information to operate, PCM will switch to HLOS MODE. PCM will output fixed values to allow operation of vehicle. Driveability concerns will be present. PCM will not output diagnostic trouble codes in this mode.

TORQUE CONVERTOR ENGAGEMENT TEST

  1. Connect tachometer. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. Ensure transmission fluid level is correct. Maintain about 50 MPH. Release throttle for about 2 seconds, then reapply to previous setting. Engine RPM should increase when throttle is released and decrease in about 5 seconds after throttle is reapplied. Go to next step.
  2. Maintain about 50 MPH. Apply light pressure to brake pedal so that brake lights operate. Engine RPM should increase as brake pedal is tapped, and then decrease about 5 seconds after pedal is released. If torque converter clutch operation is not as specified, see TCC operation concerns listed in «SYMPTOM TESTS»(/ford/econoline/i-1985-2013/remont/automatic-trans/#automatic-transmission-diagnosis-4r100-automatic-transmission) .

Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor & Transmission Speed Sensor (TSS) Function Check (If Equipped)

Note. On models equipped with Output Shaft Speed (OSS) sensor and Transmission Speed Sensor (TSS), OSS and TSS function check may be performed on hoist. To identify components, see WIRING DIAGRAMS .

Set voltmeter to 20 volts A/C. Connect voltmeter leads to appropriate TSS jacks. Slowly accelerate vehicle and monitor voltmeter reading. Voltage should increase with vehicle speed. If TSS voltage does not change as specified, see TEST F in SYSTEM TESTS.

Transmission Tester Removal & Clearing Trouble Codes

Disconnect Transmission Tester from transmission connector. Install vehicle wiring harness to transmission connector. Install all heat shields that were removed. Disconnect tester power lead from vehicle. See CLEARING CODES to erase any DTCs that were set. Perform QUICK TEST to determine if any DTCs are present.

SUMMARY

If no Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is present and transmission engagement or shifting condition still exists, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in FORD 4R100 OVERHAUL article.

SYSTEM TESTS

Note. SYSTEM TESTS are diagnostic formats used to test and service EEC-V system. See SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - EEC-V article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. QUICK TEST allows technician to identify problems and retrieve service codes. SYSTEM TESTS check transmission circuits, sensors, solenoids and actuators. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure.

Procedures in SYSTEM TESTS are written for the use of the following Ford Motor Co. test equipment

  1. New Generation Star (NGS) Tester (007-00500)
  2. 104-Pin Breakout Box (014-00950)
  3. Transmission Tester (007-00130)

HOW TO USE SYSTEM TESTS

  1. Ensure all non-EEC related faults found while performing TROUBLE SHOOTING steps in FORD 4R100 OVERHAUL article have been corrected. DO NOT perform any SYSTEM TEST unless specifically instructed by a QUICK TEST procedure. Follow each test step in order until fault is found. DO NOT replace any part unless directed here to do so. When more than one code is retrieved, start with first code displayed.
  2. SYSTEM TESTS ensure electrical circuits are okay before sensors or other components are replaced. Always test circuits for continuity between sensor and PCM. Test all circuits for short to power, opens or short to ground. Voltage Reference (VREF) and Voltage Power (VPWR) circuits should be tested with KOEO or as specified in SYSTEM TESTS.
  3. DO NOT measure voltage or resistance at PCM. DO NOT connect any test light unless specified in testing procedure. All measurements are made by probing rear of connector. Isolate both ends of a circuit and turn ignition switch to OFF position when checking for shorts or continuity, unless instructed otherwise.
  4. Disconnect solenoids and switches from harness before measuring continuity and resistance or applying voltage. After each repair, check all component connections and repeat «QUICK TEST»(/ford/econoline/i-1985-2013/remont/automatic-trans/#automatic-transmission-diagnosis-4r100-automatic-transmission) .
  5. An open circuit is defined as a resistance reading of greater than 5 ohms. This specification tolerance may be too high for some items in EEC-V system. If resistance approaches 5 ohms, always clean suspect connector and coat it with protective dielectric silicone grease. A short is defined as a resistance reading of less than 10 k/ohms to ground, unless stated otherwise in SYSTEM TESTS.

Fuel-contaminated engine oil may set some codes and effect engine performance. If oil is suspect, remove PCV valve from valve cover and repeat QUICK TEST . If problem is corrected, change engine oil.

INTERMITTENT TEST

  1. Direction For Intermittent Diagnostic Path There are 2 main procedures used in this system test to isolate. Repair an intermittent condition. One procedure uses the Rotunda Distributorless Ignition System (DIS) Tester (007-00075) and the other uses a scan tool and a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM). The distributorless ignition system tester is used on vehicles with coil pack ignition systems. If vehicle has a ignition condition and is equipped with coil pack ignition, go to step 21 . If vehicle is not as described, go to next step.
  2. Perform PCM Reset Procedure If PCM reset procedure has already been performed, go to next step. If PCM reset procedure has not been performed, perform appropriate COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURE in APPLICATIONS & IDENTIFICATION. Ensure freeze frame data has been recorded before resetting PCM. After performing PCM reset procedure, go to next step.
  3. Select PIDs Related To Symptom Scan tool and a list of PIDs must be used to indicate area of fault. Obtain symptom from customer description. Use REFERENCE VALUE SYMPTOM table and REFERENCE VALUE/PID MEASUREMENT SIGNAL table in PIN VOLTAGE/PID VALUE CHARTS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE to identity PIDs that relate to symptom. Make a list of symptom related PIDs and go to next step.
  4. Symptom Verification Path to symptom verification is optional, but is recommended for the following reasons: If vehicle is in for a repeat repair. No DTCs are present. Customer has difficulty describing symptom. If symptom needs to be verified, go to next step. If symptom is known and does not need to be verified, go to step 11 .
  5. Note All Available Data To Aid In Symptom Verification Collect as much data as possible to aid in determining intermittent fault area. Note any freeze frame data that was recorded in step 2) . Note any continuous memory codes that were present prior to performing COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURE in step 2) . Obtain any information from customer that would aid in determining fault area. Go to next step.
  6. Attempt To Recreate Symptom Using scan tool, select and monitor PIDs displayed in freeze frame data (if available) and PIDs on list that were developed in step 3) . Using freeze frame data recorded earlier, recreate conditions described by each freeze frame PID. Pay particular attention to ECT LOAD, RPM and VSS PIDs. Use any information available from customer to aid in producing conditions for recreating symptom. When symptom occurs, press trigger on scan tool to begin recording. Refer to scan tool instruction manual for recorder function operation. If symptom is reproduced, go to step 11 . If symptom cannot be reproduced, go to next step.
  7. Recreate Symptom Using Intermittent Road Test The intermittent road test procedure is the last attempt to locate area of condition before physically disturbing vehicle circuits. Road test is a set of instructions for monitoring PID values or making circuit measurements with a DVOM. Procedure is performed under 4 conditions: Key On Engine Off (KOEO), hot idle, with vehicle speed at 30 MPH and 55 MPH. On part of procedure that requires a road test at 30 MPH and 55 MPH, a ride along assistant is necessary. Use PID values and circuit values in pin voltage/PID value charts to compare with actual PID values and circuit measurements made during road test. To perform KOEO part of procedure, locate appropriate pin voltage/PID value chart in PIN VOLTAGE/PID VALUE CHARTS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using scan tool, select and monitor PID values. Using a DVOM, measure circuits at breakout box identified in pin voltage/PID value charts. Compare scan tool PID values with circuit values made with DVOM. If any values are out of range, go to step 11 . If all values are in range, go to next step.
  8. Recreate Symptom Using Hot Idle Road Test Procedure Start engine and allow to idle. Ensure engine is at normal operating temperature. Continue to monitor same PIDs and circuits as in step 7) . If any values are out of range, go to step 11 . If all values are in range, go to next step.
  9. Recreate Symptom Using 30 MPH Road Test Road test vehicle at 30 MPH and continue to monitor same PIDs and circuits as in step 7) . If any values are out of range, go to step 11 . If all values are in range, go to next step.
  10. Recreate Symptom Using 55 MPH Road Test Road test vehicle at 55 MPH and continue to monitor same PIDs and circuits as in step 7) . If any values are out of range, go to next step. If all values are in range, it is now necessary to physically disturb selected circuit in an attempt to recreate intermittent condition. Go to next step.
  11. Select Circuits To Be Tested From Intermittent Test Table Remain in scan tool PID selection menu. If steps 7) - 10) (intermittent road tests) were performed, select PIDs or circuits that values did not match PID values or circuit values made using DVOM and pin voltage/PID value chart. If steps 7) - 10) were not performed, select PIDs from PID list made in step 3) . On all applications, go to «INTERMITTENT TEST»(/ford/econoline/i-1985-2013/remont/automatic-trans/#automatic-transmission-diagnosis-4r100-automatic-transmission) table. Match selected PIDs to corresponding circuit in INTERMITTENT TEST table. It is possible to have more than one circuit to test. If a PID recording was made with scan tool in step 6) , it may be helpful to replay recording at this time. Using INTERMITTENT TEST table, determine test to perform (input or output). To perform input test, go to next step. To perform output test, go to step 16 .
