Allison 3000 & 4000 Gen 4 Fault Code: P2669 Actuator Supply Voltage 2 (HSD2) Open

DIAGNOSTIC RESPONSE:
SOL OFF, Inhibit TCC operation, Inhibit main modulation, DNA

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:
The high side drivers are connected to the high side circuits of the solenoids and commanded on during normal operation. The high side drivers serve as a master switch to supply battery voltage to the low side drivers. High side drivers are turned on during TCM initialization and remain on during normal operation. High side drivers are turned off during cranking and for certain diagnostic responses. The open circuit diagnostic is determined by monitoring the status of the low side drivers. If two or more of the low side drivers circuits are detected by the TCM in a failed open/low state that are supplied by a particular high side driver circuit, the problem is assumed to be on the high side of the load and a high side driver fault becomes active instead of two or more low side driver faults becoming active. There may or may not be low side driver faults present with this DTC. High Side Driver 2 (HSD2) supplies battery voltage to the Pressure Control Solenoid 1 (PCS1), Pressure Control Solenoid 2 (PCS2), Pressure Control Solenoid 3 (PCS3), and Shift Solenoid 1 (SS1) via wire 171. The TCM regulates control current to the solenoids by switching the appropriate low side driver on and off.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC:
1. DTC enabled with ignition ON, engine OFF, and battery voltage greater than 9 volts.
2. HSD2 is commanded ON.
3. DTC disabled while engine is cranking longer than 4 seconds, and battery voltage is less than 10 volts.
4. DTC re-enabled once engine is running and TCM is initialized normally.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC:
This DTC sets when the TCM detects two or more low side drivers connected to HSD2, e.g., PCS1, PCS2, PCS3, or SS 1 low side drivers have been detected in a failed low state and HSD2 voltage is less than 6 volts.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS:
When DTC P2669 is active:
1. The DTC sets while in a forward range, then shifts to another forward range. If failure occurs while in Neutral (N), the transmission remains in Neutral (N). If failure occurs while in Reverse (R), the transmission remains in Reverse (R) or shifts to Neutral (N). Once range is attained, transmission is locked in this range and there is no response to shift selector requests.
2. The TCM inhibits TCC engagement.
3. Main Modulation is inhibited.
4. DTC is stored in the TCM history.
5. The CHECK TRANS light illuminates.
6. The TCM freezes shift adapts (DNA).

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC:
Use the diagnostic tool to clear the DTC from the TCM history. The TCM automatically clears the DTC from the TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without failure.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS:
DTC P2669 can be caused by:
1. HSD2 circuit issues such as:
– W171 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W171 (terminal 6 of 20-way) shorted to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– W171 high resistance or an open circuit in chassis harness.
– W171 (terminal 6 of 20-way) high resistance or an open circuit in internal transmission harness.
2. Two or more low side driver circuit issues with PCS1, PCS2, PCS3, or SS1.
3. PCS1 issues such as:
– W136 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W136 shorted (terminal 4 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– W136 high resistance or an open circuit in chassis harness.
– W136 (terminal 4 of 20-way) high resistance or an open circuit in internal transmission harness.
4. PCS2 issues such as:
– W152 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W152 shorted (terminal 5 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– W152 high resistance or an open circuit in chassis harness.
– W152 (terminal 5 of 20-way) high resistance or an open circuit in internal transmission harness.
5. PCS3 issues such as:
– W133 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W133 shorted (terminal 9 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– W133 high resistance or an open circuit in chassis harness.
– W133 (terminal 9 of 20-way) high resistance or an open circuit in internal transmission harness.
6. SS 1 issues such as:
– W151 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W151 shorted (terminal 10 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– W151 high resistance or an open circuit in chassis harness.
– W151 high resistance or an open circuit (terminal 10 of 20-way) in internal transmission harness.
7. Defective solenoids PCS1, PCS2, PCS3, SS1.
8. Unlocked connectors, expanded terminals, poor pin crimps or unlocked pins causing high resistance or open circuit.
9. Defective TCM.
