Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information TCM-P082601

Condition
The circuit board of the gear selector module (GSM) houses three Hall sensors. A permanent magnet on the gear selector lever influences the output signals from the sensors to the gear selector module (GSM). The automatic transmission remains in position D hydraulically when the gear selector is moved to the manual shifting position (+/-). When the gear selector is moved up (+), the gear selector module (GSM) sends a signal to the transmission control module (TCM) to upshift. If the manual selector lever is moved down (-), the gear selector module (GSM) sends a signal to the transmission control module (TCM) to downshift.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the control module detects that:
- The signals from the gear selector are not accurate for manual mode (+/-).
The control module's test for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) starts in the event of:
- Ignition on.

Note! The control module can only detect the fault once the test has been started and the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored when the conditions are met.





Substitute value
