DTC P2544
Transmission Torque Request Circuit
DTC P2544
Transmission Torque Request Signal Message Counter Incorrect
| Circuit/System Description |
To improve shift feel, the transmission control module (TCM) is constantly sending the engine control module (ECM) serial data messages with information regarding it's request for modifying engine speed or torque. The serial data messages are sent through two circuits which are part of a communication network called the controller area network (CAN). The ECM sets DTC P2544 when it detects a discrepancy in the structure of the message causing the integrity of the message to be questioned.
An intermittent fault in the CAN circuits will cause the ECM to set DTC P2544.
| Conditions for Running the DTC |
| • |
The engine run time is greater than 0.5 s.
|
|
| • |
No other CAN errors are present.
|
|
| Conditions for Setting the DTC |
The ECM detects that the engine speed and torque modification messages from the TCM are either corrupted or intermittently missing for greater than 4 s.
| Action Taken When the DTC Sets |
| • |
DTC P2544 is a Type B DTC.
|
|
| • |
The TCM commands maximum line pressure during shifts, which results in harsh shifts.
|
|
| • |
The TCM freezes adaptive functions.
|
|
| Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
DTC P2544 is a Type B DTC.

| 1. |
DTC P2544 is an information dtc. Diagnose all other fault codes from the ECM that were generated before DTC P2544. See
DTC list - car
.
|
|
| 2. |
If no other fault codes are stored in the ECM, perform the diagnosis by checking if intermittent circuit failures occur in CAN. Go to
