## DTC P0722 Non European or N. American Emissions

### DTC Descriptor

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

DTC P0722 Output Shaft Speed Sensor Low

### Conditions for Setting the DTC

• | This DTC detects no signal of output shaft speed (OSS) sensor circuit for a long period of time. The revolution is 0-10,000 RPM.

• | The transmission control module (TCM) detects no pulse of the OSS sensor while the TCM detects 178 pulses of input shaft speed (ISS) sensor. This detection 500 times continuously.

• | D,2,L range selected

• | The input speed is 5 km/h (3 mph) or greater.

• | DTCs P0751, P0753, P0756, P0758, and P0717 are not set.

• | 25 seconds later after Neutral (N) to Drive (D) shift

### Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• | The TCM will request the illumination of the hold lamp and store the DTC when the TCM detects a failure on the first ignition cycle.

• | No lockup control

• | No engine torque reduction control

• | No engagement pressure control

• | No 4th gear

• | No self-learning control

• | No prevent reverse gear control

### Conditions for Clearing the DTC

• | The TCM turns off the hold lamp when no further failures are detected on the next ignition cycles.

• | The scan tool can clear the DTC from the TCM history.

• | The TCM clears the DTC from the TCM history memory after 40 consecutive ignition cycles without fault.

• | The TCM detects 250 pulses of the OSS sensor while failure detection is not achieved.

### Cause of Failure

• | The wiring harness or connector between OSS sensor and TCM

• | The OSS sensor

• | The TCM
