Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P0872 and P0873 are Type C DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

A TFP switch may malfunction due to normal debris in the transmission fluid causing a TFP Switch DTC to intermittently set. This type of failure

should not be immediately noticeable to a customer, as the switch outputs are used for shift adaptives and do not cause transmission symptoms

unless the switch malfunctions continuously for an extended period of time.

Circuit/System Verification

1. If there are any other transmission related DTCs set, diagnose those DTCs first. Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (

See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle).

2. Engine idling in Park with parking brake applied, and drive wheels chocked.

3. Monitor the TFP Switch 1, TFP Switch 3, TFP Switch 4, and TFP Switch 5 parameters with a scan tool.

4. Place the gear select lever in Park, Reverse, and Neutral range. Verify the TFP Switch 1, TFP Switch 3, TFP Switch 4, and TFP Switch 5

parameter states are correct for each range. Refer to Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch Logic (See: Specifications/Mechanical

Specifications/Automatic Transmission/Transaxle/System Specifications/6T70/6T75 - Automatic Transmission/Transmission Fluid Pressure

Switch Logic).

5. Place the gear select lever in Drive range. Command the Shift Transmission with a scan tool through all forward ranges. Verify the TFP

Switch 1, TFP Switch 3, TFP Switch 4, and TFP Switch 5 parameter states are correct for each range. Refer to Transmission Fluid Pressure

Switch Logic (See: Specifications/Mechanical Specifications/Automatic Transmission/Transaxle/System Specifications/6T70/6T75 -

Automatic Transmission/Transmission Fluid Pressure Switch Logic).

6. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the

conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

Circuit/System Testing

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
