Circuit/System Description
The transmission fluid pressure (TFP) switch 5 is part of the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly and is not serviced separately. The TCM supplies 12 volts to the TFP switch 5 on the TFP switch 5 signal circuit; the TFP switch 5 has an internal case ground. TFP switch 5 is normally closed, Low. When oil pressure is present at the TFP switch 5, the switch is open, high. The normally low clutch pressure control (PC) solenoid 4-3 controls the transmission fluid to the R1/456 clutch. The TCM monitors the normally closed TFP switch 5 signal circuit to determine the R1/456 clutch status.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | No TFT DTCs P0711, P0712, or P0713. |
| • | No pressure control solenoid electrical DTCs P0965, P0966, P0967, P0969, P0970, P0971, P2719, P2720, P2721, P2728, P2729, or P2730. |
| • | No shift solenoid electrical DTCs P0973, P0974, P0976, or P0977. |
| • | No IMS DTCs P1825 or P1915. |
| • | The engine speed is 1,100 RPM or greater. |
| • | Ignition voltage is between 8.6 volts and 19.0 volts. |
| • | The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) is 20-150°C (68-302°F). |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0989
The TCM detects that the TFP Switch 5 signal voltage remains low, 0 volts when the low and reverse clutch or the 4-5-6 clutch is commanded ON for 5.5 seconds or greater.
P0990
the TCM detects that the TFP Switch 5 signal voltage is high, 12 volts when the low and reverse clutch or the 4-5-6 clutch is commanded OFF for 5.5 seconds or greater.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | DTCs P0989 and P0990 are Type C DTCs. |
| • | The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P0989 and P0990 are Type C DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification
If there are any other transmission related DTCs set, diagnose those DTCs first.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ensure the TFT is near the temperature displayed in the Failure Records.
- Start the engine and place the transmission range selector in D6.
- Observe the TFP Switch 5 parameter while commanding 1st gear and then commanding 2nd gear with the scan tool. The TFP switch 5 should transition from low in 1st gear to high in 2nd gear.
| ⇒ | If the TFP Switch 5 parameter state does not change, perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection . |
| ⇒ | If no concerns are found, replace the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly. |
Component Testing
Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection .
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
- Control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly replacement - refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
- Perform the Service Fast Learn Adapts .
