NO TCC FUNCTION - DESCRIPTION & POSSIBLE CAUSE

8 No TCC function
DESCRIPTION 
  • TCC does not operate even though vehicle speed is increased.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  • Basically, the TCC does not operate when the fail-safe is operating. Verify the diagnostic trouble code at first. If the TCC operates when driving at high speeds only, the malfunction (improper adjustment) is in the O/D OFF switch circuit or transmission range switch circuit.
    CAUTION:
    • If the torque converter clutch or piston is stuck, inspect them. In addition, inspect the oil cooler for foreign particles which may have mixed in with the ATF.
