TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (4L30–E)
B The PCM will illuminate the CHECK TRANS Lamp.
B Turn force motor OFF.
Conditions For Clearing The DTC/CHECK
TRANS Lamp
B The PCM will turn “off” the CHECK TRANS Lamp
after three consecutive ignition cycles without a
failure reported.
B The DTC can be cleared from PCM memory by using
a scan tool.
B The DTC can also be cleared from memory when the
vehicle has made 40 warmup cycles without a failure
reported.
B The PCM will cancel the DTC Actions Taken items
when the fault conditions no longer exist and the
ignition is cycles “off” long enough to power down the
PCM.
Diagnostic Aids
B Check for intermittent output speed sensor circuit
problems.
B Check for possible incorrect calibration. (PCM part
No., tire specification, and rear axle ratio)
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the
diagnostic chart:
3. This step checks for possible low fluid level causing
slipping resulting in an undefined gear ratio.
4. This step checks for correct gear ratios for
commanded gears.
5. This step checks for low line pressure.
DTC P0730 Gear Error Without Input Speed
Step Action Yes No
1 Were you sent here from the “On–Board Diagnostic (OBD)
System Check”?

4 1. Install the scan tool.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “on” position.
3. Engine not running.
NOTE: Before clearing DTC(s) use the scan tool to record the
“Failure Records” for reference, as data will be lost when the “Clear
Info” function is used.
4. Record the Failure Record data.
5. Use the scan tool snapshot mode to record transmission gear
ratios.
6. Drive vehicle in transmission gear ranges L, 2, 3, and D with
the engine speed is greater than 3,500 rpm for 5.5 seconds.
7. Record each transmission gear.
1st:2.73 – 2.99
2nd:1.54 – 1.71
3rd:0.93 – 1.05
4th:0.66 – 0.78
Does commanded gear ratio match ranges as shown?
