CLEAR the DTC. PERFORM the TRCM self-test. If the DTC returns, INSTALL a new TRCM, Refer to: Transmission Range Control Module (TRCM)
P177A Transmission Range Select Motor If DTC P177B is present, diagnosis this DTC first. This DTC indicates the TRCM did not achieve or hold the position commanded by the PCM. INSPECT the selector lever cable routing and adjustment. REFER to: Selector Lever Cable Adjustment . If the cable is adjusted correctly, apply the park brake and disconnect selector lever cable from the manual control lever. Manually move the manual control lever from Park to Drive and back to Park. If there is little or no resistance, INSPECT the manual valve detent spring. If the manual lever has excessive resistance or sticks then further investigation is required. The park system, manual valve and/or TR sensor assembly may have an issue. REFER to: Transmission Range (TR) Sensor
P177B Transmission Range Select Motor Current Too High This DTC indicates the TRCM did not achieve or hold the position commanded by the PCM. GO to Pinpoint Test G
P177C Default Position Motor This DTC may set from a low battery condition. PERFORM the TRCM self-test. If TRCM DTC P07F5 is present, GO to Pinpoint Test F This DTC, P177C indicates the default to park mechanism has failed. Default to Park disabled or transmission is stuck in Park. May set DTC P177D, P177E and/or P0A3F. RERUN the TRCM self-test. If DTC P177C returns, INSTALL a new TRCM, Refer to: Transmission Range Control Module (TRCM)
P177D Default Position Motor Current Too High This DTC indicates the default to park motor current was too high. Default to Park disabled or transmission is stuck in Park. Allow the system to cool. CLEAR the DTC. PERFORM the TRCM self-test. If the DTC returns, GO to Pinpoint Test G
P177E Default Position Sensor Range/Performance This DTC indicates that one or both of the sensors on the default mechanism have failed. Transmission stuck in Park. CLEAR the DTC. PERFORM the TRCM self-test. If the DTC returns, INSTALL a new TRCM, Refer to: Transmission Range Control Module (TRCM)
P2533 Ignition Switch Run/Start Position Circuit This DTC indicates the redundant run/start ignition circuit is intermittent. INSPECT the TRCM and BCM connectors for damaged or pushed-out terminals. If DTC B108A:01 and/or B1142:29 are present, Refer to: Steering Wheel and Column Electrical Components
P2534 Ignition Switch Run/Start Position Circuit Low This DTC indicates the redundant run/start ignition circuit is shorted to ground. INSPECT the TRCM and BCM connectors for damaged or pushed-out terminals. If DTC B108A:01 and/or B1142:29 are present, Refer to: Steering Wheel and Column Electrical Components
P2535 Ignition Switch Run/Start Position Circuit High This DTC indicates the redundant run/start ignition circuit is shorted to power. INSPECT the TRCM and BCM connectors for damaged or pushed-out terminals. If DTC B108A:01 and/or B1142:29 are present, Refer to: Steering Wheel and Column Electrical Components
U0029 Vehicle Communication Bus "A" Performance If DTC P0607 is present along with U0029, service DTC P0607 first. If only DTC U0029 is present, CLEAR the DTC. PERFORM the Network Test. If the DTC returns, Refer to: Communications Network
U0073 Control Module Communication Bus "A" Off Park may be available only by door or seatbelt changing state. Stay In Neutral may be disabled. Neutral Tow may be disabled. Exit from Neutral Tow may be disabled. INSPECT the connectors for damaged or pushed-out terminals, corrosion, loose wires and missing or damaged seals. CLEAR the DTC. PERFORM the Network Test. If the DTC returns, Refer to: Communications Network
U0100 Lost Communication With ECM / PCM "A" GO to Pinpoint Test I
U0103 Lost Communication With Gear Shift Control Module "A" If DTC P085D, P0860, P0861, U101E and/or U101F are present, diagnose those DTC first. PERFORM the Network Test. If DTC U0103 is the only DTC present, GO to Pinpoint Test J
U0121 Lost Communication With Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Control Module GO to Pinpoint Test K
U0140 Lost Communication With Body Control Module GO to Pinpoint Test L
U0155 Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Control Module GO to Pinpoint Test N
U0301 Software Incompatibility with Engine/Powertrain Control Module CLEAR the DTC. REPROGRAM the original PCM with the latest Lincoln PCM software. PERFORM the PCM self-test. If the DTC returns, Refer to PCM Guided Routine Testing .
U0401 Invalid Data Received from ECM/PCM "A" This DTC indicates the PCM is sending a fault message for one or more data signals the TRCM uses for function. Using the diagnostic scan tool, CLEAR all DTC. PERFORM a PCM self-test. If PCM DTC are present, Refer to ENGINE CONTROLS - INTRODUCTION (EXCEPT DIESEL & HYBRID) . and follow the PCM repair procedure.
U0404 Invalid Data Received from Gear Shift Control Module "A" This DTC indicates the PCM is able to receive GSMCAN messages but the GSM is indicating a fault on one or more of the data signals that the TRCM uses for function.
