Allison 3000 & 4000 Gen 4 Fault Code: P0658 Actuator Supply Voltage 1 (HSD1) Low

DIAGNOSTIC RESPONSE:
DNS, SOLD OFF (hydraulic default)

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 low circuit diagnostic is determined by monitoring the status of the low side drivers and high side drivers voltage. If two or more of the low side drivers circuits are detected by the TCM in a failed low state that are supplied by a particular high side driver circuit, and the high side drivers voltage is below 6V, 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 1 (HSD1) supplies battery voltage to the Main Mod, Pressure Control Solenoid 4 (PSC4) and Pressure Control Solenoid 6 (PCS6) via wire 111. 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. HSD1 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 HSD1, e.g., Main Mod, PCS4, or PCS6 (if enabled) low side drivers, have been detected in a failed low state and HSD1 voltage is less than 6 volts.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS:
When DTC P0658 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 not 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 P0658 can be caused by:
1. HSD1 circuit issues such as:
– W111 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W111 (terminal 1 of 20-way) shorted to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
2. Two or more low side drier circuit issues with Main Mod, PCS4, or PSC6.
3. Main Mod issues such as:
– W174 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W174 shorted (terminal 9 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– Main Mod solenoid shorted.
4. PCS4 issues such as:
– W155 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W155 shorted (terminal 2 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– PCS4 solenoid shorted.
5. PCS6 (7-speed only) issues such as:
– W178 shorted to another wire in chassis harness.
– W178 shorted (terminal 7 of 20-way) to another wire in the internal transmission harness.
– PCS6 shorted.
6. Broken or defective connector assemblies allowing pushed back pins to short together.
7. Unlocked connectors, missing seal plugs allowing moisture in connectors.
8. Defective TCM.
