N Chrysler s Rear wheel drive Electronic series transmissions are unlike any other transmission found on the road today And for this reason diagnosing shift complaints and or solenoid codes becomes entirely unique Although proper diagnostics begins with an understanding of the solenoid and sensor s principles of operation there also needs to be an understanding between the TCM and the OBD LI computer systems And to add just another twist there is a notable difference between gas and diesel governor pressure strategy Not knowing these important factors has caused confusion for the technician resulting in mis diagnosis and much time wasted trying to repair a troublesome transmission To assist the technician in effectively diagnosing the majority of problems associated with this system it is imperative that the following be read and assimilated GOVERNOR SOLENOID The purpose of the governor solenoid is to produce governor pressure which in gas vehicles rises proportional to road speed For example at 20 mph there should be approximately 20 psi of governor pressure and at 30 mph there should be approximately 30 psi and so on With diesel vehicles this is not so At approximately 20 mph governor pressure begins to double road speed So when 20 mph is reached there will be approximately 40 psi and at 30 mph there will be approximately 60 psi of governor pressure The purpose of this strategy is to prevent 4 2 or 3 2 kick downs which would res
