2004 Volvo V70 L5-2.5L Turbo VIN 59 B5254T2SECTION Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information
Condition
The gear-shift position sensor signals provide the transmission control module (TCM) with data on the gear selector position. This is done by grounding a combination of signals A, B, C and PA inside the gear position sensor. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) TCM-0039 is stored if the transmission control module (TCM) registers an unacceptable combination of A, B, C and PA for a period of 10 seconds as shown below.
β’ = 0-2 V below battery voltage
o = ground
Substitute value
- The control module "Limp Home" program has been initiated.
Possible source
- Contact resistance in terminals.
- Short-circuit to supply voltage or ground in the signal cable.
- Open-circuit in the signal cable.
