Allison 3000 & 4000 Gen 4 Fault Code: P0721 Output Speed Sensor Circuit Performance
Posted by PerDiezel Solutions on
DIAGNOSTIC RESPONSE:DNS, Lock in current range CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:The speed sensors are variable reluctance devices which convert mechanical motion to an AC voltage. Each sensor consists of a wire coil wrapped around a pole piece that is adjacent to a permanent magnet. These elements are contained in a housing which is mounted adjacent to a rotating ferrous member. Two signal wires extend from one end of the housing and an exposed end of the pole piece is located at the opposite end of the housing. The permanent magnet produces lines of flux around the pole piece. As a ferrous object (a...

Allison 3000 & 4000 Gen 4 Fault Code: P0729 Incorrect 6th Gear Ratio
Posted by PerDiezel Solutions on
DIAGNOSTIC RESPONSE:DNS, Attempt 5th, then 3rd CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:The Transmission Control Module (TCM) uses input from the turbine speed and output speed sensors to determine the current commanded for steady-state gear ratio. The TCM then compares the known gear ratio to the calculated gear ratio for the current range. CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC:1. Hydraulic system is pressurized.2. No shift in progress.3. Hydraulic default condition not present.4. Output speed is above 200 rpm.5. Engine initialization or shutdown is not in process. CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC:DTC P0729 sets during steady-state condition when the calculated sixth gear ratio differs from the known...
