E14 - TRANSMISSION PRESSURE CONTROL
SOLENOID (PCS) – LOW (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
The 4L60-E automatic transmission uses an electrical solenoid to control hydraulic pressure inside the
transmission. This electrical solenoid allows the PCM to control "line pressure", similar to other automatic
transm issions that use a "throttle valve" cable or vacuum modulator. The duty cycle, and amount of current flow to
the PCS, are both controlled by the PCM. By monitoring this line, the PCM can determine if the commanded
amperage has gone to the PCS and returned to the PCM.
E15 - TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID (PCS) – HIGH (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
The duty cycle, and am ount of c urrent flow to the PCS, are c ontrolled by the PCM. T his circ uit is the B+ supply line
from the PCM to the PCS. The duty cycle and amperage are controlled by the PCM.
E16 - ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE and THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR GROUND
This terminal should be zero volts. It is connected through the PCM circuitry to engine ground.
F1 - FUEL INJECTOR 4 - CONTROL
F2 - FUEL INJECTOR 1 - CONTROL
F3 - FUEL INJECTOR 6 - CONTROL
The voltage seen at these terminals actually comes through the injectors, which are connected to +12 volts. W ith
the engine not running, the voltage seen would be battery voltage. With the engine running at idle, the charging
system increases the voltage slightly, so this voltage will increase. With higher engine RPM or more engine load,
the resulting increase in injector pulse frequency or injector pulse width will cause this voltage to appear slightly
less.
F4 -AIR CONDITIONING RELAY CONTROL
When the A/C is requested, the BCM or the OCC module, will communicate to the PCM via the serial data line,
requesting A/C. The PCM supplies the ground path on this terminal to energise the A/C control relay. The voltage
will be less than 1 volt when the PCM energises the relay and battery voltage, when the relay is commanded OFF.
F5 - START RELAY CONTROL
W hen the PCM receives the proper T heft Deterrent signal, the PCM will supply a ground signal to the Start Relay.
This will allow the vehicle to start. If an impr oper Thef t Deterr ent s ignal is s ens ed by the PCM, then the PCM will not
supply a ground signal to the Start Relay. This will prevent the starter motor from operating.
F6 - ENGINE COOLING FAN - HIGH SPEED RELAY CONTROL
This terminal will have battery voltage until the PCM energises the high speed cooling fan relay by supplying the
ground; then it will be close to zero. The input that causes the PCM to energise the high speed fan relay is the
engine coolant temperature sensor or the A/C pressure sensor. The PCM will also energise the high speed fan relay
in the Diagnostic Mode - i.e., ignition "ON," engine stopped, and DLC diagnostic "test" enable terminal grounded.
Refer engine fan TABLE A-12 in this Section for further explanation. (The Body Control Module operates the cooling
fan low speed relay).
F7 - TRACTION CONTROL (TORQUE ACHIEVED)
The PCM sends a Nm signal to the A.B.S./T.C.S. module on the actual torque circuit informing the A.B.S./T.C.S.
module of response made to the desired torque Nm signal. This Nm signal should match closely with the
Requested Torque Nm signal during a traction control event. A problem with the delivered torque circuit should
cause an A.B.S./T.C.S. DTC to set, and traction control to be disabled.
F8 – NOT USED
F9 - RANGE SIGNAL A INPUT SIGNAL (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
F10 - RANGE SIGNAL B INPUT SIGNA L (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
F11 - RANGE SIGNAL C INPUT SIGNA L (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
Range signal "A", "B" and "C". The PCM sends out a buffered 12 volt signal to the transmission fluid pressure
manual valve position s witc h assem bly ( TFP), loc ated in the automatic transm ission valve body. T he 12 volt signal
must pass through either a normally open or normally closed switch to reach ground. When the switches are closed,
the signal should be near 0 volts. The PCM monitors the status of these signals to determine which position the
manual valve has actually been moved to.
F12 -POWER / ECONOMY INPUT SIGNAL (AUTO TRANS ONLY)
The PCM sends a signal of about 12 volts, and monitors the status of this circuit. In the ECONOMY position the
switch is open, the PCM voltage s tatus s ignal remains high – about 12 volts, and the PCM does not allow shif t point
changes. When the transmission switch is pressed to the POWER position the switch is momentarily closed and
the PCM voltage status s ignal is mom entarily pulled low. The PCM s enses the m omentary voltage signal drop and
enables power mode s hifting. T he PCM rem embers this status and will only enable Economy Mode if the switch is
depressed again.
