Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The park pawl motor moves a park pawl rod when energized, moving the park pawl out of the Park position. When the park pawl is in the out of park position, the park pawl motor turns off and a hold out of park (HOOP) solenoid energizes and holds the park pawl out of Park. When power is turned off to the HOOP solenoid a spring returns the park pawl to the Park position. The park pawl actuator uses dual PWM output (at 1000 Hz) park pawl position sensors where sensor A increases as the park pawl moves out of Park and sensor B decreases. Together the sum of the two PWM signal duty cycles should add up to approximately 100%. A rotary sensor measures the position of a cam actuator that moves the linear park pawl rod and determines whether the park pawl actuator is in the "Stay out of Park" mode.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The park pawl motor moves a park pawl rod when energized, moving the park pawl out of the Park position. When the park pawl is in the out of park position, the park pawl motor turns off and a hold out of park (HOOP) solenoid energizes and holds the park pawl out of Park. When power is turned off to the HOOP solenoid a spring returns the park pawl to the Park position. The park pawl actuator uses dual PWM output (at 1000 Hz) park pawl position sensors where sensor A increases as the park pawl moves out of Park and sensor B decreases. Together the sum of the two PWM signal duty cycles should add up to approximately 100%. A rotary sensor measures the position of a cam actuator that moves the linear park pawl rod and determines whether the park pawl actuator is in the "Stay out of Park" mode.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions

DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
SOBDMC P272C:00 Park Pawl Motor Control Circuit: No Sub Type Information The inverter system controller (ISC) sets this DTC when the park motor power relay control circuit between the ISC and the BCMC is faulted.
SOBDMC P272C:12 Park Pawl Motor Control Circuit: Circuit Short To Battery The inverter system controller (ISC) sets this DTC when it detects a short to power in the park pawl motor control circuit.
SOBDMC P272C:14 Park Pawl Motor Control Circuit: Circuit Short To Ground Or Open The inverter system controller (ISC) sets this DTC when it detects a short to ground or an open in the park pawl motor control circuit.
SOBDMC P272C:2A Park Pawl Motor Control Circuit: Stuck in Range The inverter system controller (ISC) sets this DTC when it detects the park pawl control motor signal is in-range faulted. The PWM duty cycle or frequency is significantly different than expected but neither open nor shorted.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The park pawl motor moves a park pawl rod when energized, moving the park pawl out of the Park position. When the park pawl is in the out of park position, the park pawl motor turns off and a hold out of park (HOOP) solenoid energizes and holds the park pawl out of Park. When power is turned off to the HOOP solenoid a spring returns the park pawl to the Park position . The park pawl actuator uses dual PWM output (at 1000 Hz) park pawl position sensors where sensor A increases as the park pawl moves out of Park and sensor B decreases. Together the sum of the two PWM signal duty cycles should add up to approximately 100%. A rotary sensor measures the position of a cam actuator that moves the linear park pawl rod and determines whether the park pawl actuator is in the "Stay out of Park" mode.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The transmission fluid auxiliary pump keeps the transmission fluid circulating during extended drive times without engine charging. The electric transmission fluid pump has an internal microprocessor and communicates with the SOBDMC over a LIN circuit. If the transmission fluid level is low or overfilled or there are any restrictions in the transmission tubes, hoses or cooler it may affect the transmission fluid pump operation.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions

DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
SOBDMC P0B0D:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Motor Control Module: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets if the E-pump communication is OK. The transmission fluid pump has detected a pump over or under speed condition. The current flow through the pump was within specification.
SOBDMC P0C27:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump 'A' Motor Current Low: No Sub Type Information Possible causes are loss of pump prime or low transmission fluid level. This DTC sets if the E-pump communication is OK and low current has been detected during operation.
SOBDMC P0C28:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump 'A' Motor Current High: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets if the E-pump communication is OK and high current has been detected during operation. Possible causes are a blocked fluid path or fluid contamination.
SOBDMC P0C2A:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump 'A' Motor Stalled: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets if the E-pump communication is OK. When the E-pump is commanded on the E-pump did not detect a corresponding increase in pump speed, indicating a stalled pump motor. Possible causes are internal pump failure or fluid contamination.
SOBDMC P175A:00 Transmission Fluid Over Temperature Condition - Electric Transmission Fluid Pump Disabled: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets if the E-pump communication is OK. This DTC can be caused by high transmission fluid temperature. It does not necessarily mean the E-pump has lost function so if all steps below are performed without identifying a problem the E-pump is functioning normally.
SOBDMC P2796:00 Electric Transmission Fluid Pump Control Circuit: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates a loss of communication between the ISC and the E-pump. The loss of communication can be caused by an open, a short to ground or a short to power in the E-pump LIN circuit. It can also be caused by a loss of power or ground to the E-Pump.
SOBDMC P2797:00 Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Performance/Stuck Off: No Sub Type Information This DTC indicates the E-pump is stuck off and may be due to a fault in one of the circuits, a mechanical malfunction in the E-pump or in the E-pump motor.

PINPOINT TEST I: DTCS P27B2, P2806

NOTE: The inverter system controller (ISC) is called the SOBDMC in the scan tool.


Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 30 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The park pawl motor moves a park pawl rod when energized, moving the park pawl out of the Park position. When the park pawl is in the out of park position, the park pawl motor turns off and a hold out of park (HOOP) solenoid energizes and holds the park pawl out of Park. When power is turned off to the HOOP solenoid a spring returns the park pawl to the Park position . The park pawl actuator uses dual PWM output (at 1000 Hz) park pawl position sensors where sensor A increases as the park pawl moves out of Park and sensor B decreases. Together the sum of the two PWM signal duty cycles should add up to approximately 100%. A rotary sensor measures the position of a cam actuator that moves the linear park pawl rod and determines whether the park pawl actuator is in the "Stay out of Park" mode.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions

DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
SOBDMC P27B2:00 Internal Control Module Transmission Range Control Performance: No Sub Type Information The ISC sets this DTC if the actual park pawl position does not match the indicated park pawl position.
