There no trans relay control signal from TCM. TCM sends 12 volts from PIN 15 (light green) at TCM connector to PIN G4 at trans relay. The relay has a permanent ground on PIN G5. The 12 volt signal to the trans relay was not present. The ground was good. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/autotechdiagnostics\/4504769021\/\" title=\"Page 1 of wiring showing TCM pins\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2688\/4504769021_3311d227c6.jpg\" width=\"365\" height=\"500\" alt=\"DSCN7701a\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/autotechdiagnostics\/4505402502\/\" title=\"I hate to pierce wires.

If it was this would indicate an open circuit between TCM and junction box. The 12 volts signal was not present at TCM. <\/p>\n<p>Next up I checked all powers and grounds to TCM. I found PIN 11 (light green \/ black) missing battery voltage when ignition is switched ON.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/autotechdiagnostics\/4504768359\/\" title=\"DSCN7700a by Automotive Diagnostic Resources, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4029\/4504768359_23a801fb42_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"162\" alt=\"DSCN7700a\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI went to fuse 12 (10A) in fuse block.
