## DTC P0717 2.2L (L61)

Master Electrical Component List
Automatic Transmission Controls Schematics 2.2L
OBD II Symbol Description Notice

### Circuit Description

The automatic transmission input shaft speed sensor (AT ISS) provides transmission input speed to the PCM. The AT ISS is a permanent magnet generator. The sensor mounts into the transmission case and maintains a slight air gap between the sensor and the drive sprocket. The AT ISS produces an AC voltage as the drive sprocket rotor teeth pass through the magnetic field of the sensor. The AC voltage level increases as the turbine shaft speed increases. The PCM converts the AC voltage into a digital signal. The PCM determines actual turbine speed using the digital signal. The PCM uses the input speed to calculate torque converter slip speed, and gear ratios.

When the PCM detects a low input speed and the vehicle has a large vehicle speed, then DTC P0717 sets. DTC P0717 is a type B DTC.

### Conditions for Running the DTC

• | No MAP DTCs P0107 or P0108.

• | No VSS DTCs P0502 or P0503.

• | The engine is running.

• | The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

### Conditions for Setting the DTC

The input speed is less than 100 RPM for 5 seconds.

### Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• | The PCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.

• | The PCM commands maximum line pressure.

• | The PCM freezes transmission adaptive functions.

• | The PCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The PCM stores this information as Freeze Frame and Failure Records.

• | The PCM stores DTC P0717 in PCM history during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.

### Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• | The PCM turns OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test runs and passes.

• | A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.

• | The PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission-related diagnostic fault occurring.

• | The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM.

### Diagnostic Aids

Ensure the wiring harness is not stretched too tightly or other components are pressing on the connector body. Also, inspect for proper clearance to any other components and wiring. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems.
