2004 Volvo V70 L5-2.4L VIN 64 B5244S6SECTION Faulty Signal. Permanent Fault
Faulty signal. Permanent fault
Checking the transmission input speed sensor signal
- Ignition off
- Check the transmission control module (TCM) and transmission connectors. Check for contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Remedy if necessary
- Reinstall the components, reconnect the connectors etc.
- Gear selector in position P
- Start the engine. Allow the engine to idle
- Read off the transmission input speed.
Check that the transmission input speed is updated.
Compare with the engine speed (RPM).
If the transmission speed increases, the cause of the fault was loose connections in the control module or transmission speed sensor connectors.
Other information:
- To disconnect the transmission control module (TCM), see Transmission control module (TCM), replacing, B5244T5, AW55-50/51SN, B5254T2, AW55-50/51SN, B5254T2, AW50/51 AWD Service and Repair
- To disconnect the automatic transmission connectors, see Connectors transmission, disconnecting / connecting Procedures
- For information about signals, see Signal description. Transmission control module (TCM), AW50/51 AWD, AW55-50/51SN Signal Description. Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Does the transmission input speed increase with engine speed (RPM)?
Yes - Fault Found
No - Checking wiring and sensors
-------------------------------------------------
Checking wiring and sensors
- Ignition off
- Connect the breakout box.
Check the power supply cable for the transmission input speed sensor between control module terminal #A59 (#A59) and transmission connector terminal #A2. Check for an open-circuit. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Check for a short-circuit to ground. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Check the signal cable between control module terminal #A41 (#A41) and transmission connector terminal #A1. Check for an open-circuit. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Check for a short-circuit to ground. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. See Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Hint: With the control module connected and the ignition on, the voltage between transmission output speed sensor connector terminals #A1 and #A2 must be approximately 1-3 V below Ubat.
Remedy as necessary.

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
- Ignition off.
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Start the engine and let it idle.
- Gear selector in position P.
- Read off the transmission speed.
Depress the accelerator pedal (AP) and check that engine speed (RPM) is updated.
Compare with the engine speed (RPM).

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