2011-2015 Vehicles Equipped With The 6R80 Transmission – Misc Solenoid DTC Codes – Pinpoint Diagnostic Routine – Solenoid Contamination Inspection
2011-2015 vehicles equipped with the 6R80 transmission that exhibit a solenoid DTC (Actuator Power Short to Ground) may be caused by contamination at the solenoid to leadframe connection.
Follow Pinpoint Test (PPT) A1 procedures.
If (PPT) A7 results indicate the resistance is out of specification, (PPT) A8 then requires removal of the main control and leadframe, recommend inspecting the affected solenoid terminals for contamination of fine metal particles near solenoid terminal connection to leadframe.
In many cases cleaning has been an effective way of alleviating the condition.
Reinstall main control fill and set transmission fluid level, Clear
DTC’S and road test.
Leadframe or solenoid should only be replaced if the DTC and condition returns.
- Prevents overheating, reducing elevated operating temperatures up to 40 degrees Farenheit - Optimizes total transmission performance
- Eliminates transmission fluid foaming and oxidation and reduces wear throughout the transmission
- Eliminates clutch chatter and torque converter shudder; Softens and modifies harsh shifts making them quicker in duration
- Extends fluid life / Raises the thermal and oxidative stability of the fluid
- Only protectant that increases the fluid’s ability to transfer heat / Protects new seals and permanently restores older seals to a like-new condition, without adverse side effects
