1996 Chevrolet Forward Control 6.5 Y, AutomaticSECTION Component & Wiring Harness Resistance Check
- Install Jumper Harness (J-39775) to transmission 20-pin connector. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between specified terminals for each component. See Fig 1. Compare resistance reading to known values. See TRANSMISSION COMPONENT RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS table.
- If resistance reading is okay, go to next step. If resistance reading is not okay, disconnect wiring harness at component and measure component resistance. Replace component if resistance is not as specified. If resistance is as specified, repair wiring harness between component and 20-pin connector.
- Measure resistance between ground and each terminal at transmission 20-pin connector. See Fig 1. Resistance should be less than 200 ohms for each component. Resistance for fluid temperature sensor will vary with temperature. If resistance is within specification, problem is intermittent. If resistance is low, disconnect wiring harness at component.
- Measure resistance between component terminals and ground. If resistance is low, replace component. If resistance is high, inspect wiring harness for short to ground. Repair as necessary.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
