Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Disconnect the TCM C1 harness connector.
Disconnect the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (T19) Secondary Pressure Solenoid Control circuit.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Repair the (T19) Secondary Pressure Solenoid Control circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform CVT VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3).
- 3) CHECK THE (T19) SECONDARY PRESSURE SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT Fig 2: Checking (T19) Secondary Pressure Solenoid Control Circuit In Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly Harness Connector

Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Reconnect the TCM C1 harness connector.
Ignition on, engine not running.
With the scan tool actuate the Secondary Pressure Solenoid.
Using a test light connected to ground, check the (T19) Secondary Pressure Solenoid Control circuit in the Transmission Solenoid/Pressure Switch Assembly harness connector.
NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Replace the CV Transmission or repair or replace the Secondary Pressure Solenoid (Valve Body) per the Service Information.
- Perform CVT VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Using the schematics as a guide, check the Transmission Control Module (TCM) terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Pay particular attention to all power and ground circuits. Check for any Service Bulletins for possible causes that may apply. If no problems are found, replace the TCM per the Service Information.
- Perform CVT VERIFICATION TEST .
