TPS RELEARN PROCEDURE
COMPLAINT:
CAUSE:
CORRECTION:
The transmission is stacked shifting and has no kickdown. Code 21, for a TPS circuit
fault is stored. All TPS circuits check within specs and adjusting the TPS does not allow
code 21 to be cleared or the complaints to disappear.
These vehicles require a TPS relearn procedure whenever the engine, injection pump,
accelerator cable, throttle linkage, throttle position sensor or kickdown switch are
replaced. Failure to do so will result in the above complaints.
The following procedure is used for the TPS voltage relearn:
Clearing TCM Memory of Current TPS Voltage
1. Turn starter switch to the ON position.
2. Turn the overdrive switch to the ON position.
3. Place the selector lever in the manual 1 range.
4. Depress the accelerator pedal fully, listen for the kickdown switch click.
5. Depress the brake pedal, (brake switch ON).
If the memory is successfully cleared, the Check Trans lamp flashes 5 times.
Preparation For Relearn
1. Turn the starter switch to the ON position.
2. Connect terminals 4 and 11 of the Data Link Connector as seen in Figure 1, the
Check Trans lamp begins flashing at 0.4 second intervals.
3. Place selector lever in the P range.
WOT Voltage Relearn
1. Depress accelerator pedal fully.
2. With the accelerator pedal still at WOT, depress brake pedal for more than 3
seconds.
3. The Check Trans lamp should now flash intermittently, then illuminate for 3
seconds, then flash 6 times slowly, then flash intermittently again. At this time,
release the brake and accelerator pedals. The Check Trans lamp should illuminate
for 3 seconds. If it does not, do the Clear Memory procedure above and repeat the
WOT relearn procedure beginning with item 2 under Preparation.
Idle Position Voltage Relearn
1. Start the engine.
2. Depress the accelerator pedal slowly 3 times.
3. Remove the jumper wire from the Data Link Connector. At this time the Check
Trans lamp should stop flashing. If it does not, or there is mis-operation, begin the
procedure again from the start.
