Traction Control Valve (TCV) Repair Tests:
1. Take all measurements at ECU harness connector pins in order to check wire harness
and traction control valve. Probe the connector carefully so that the terminals are not
damaged.
2. Tractor Control Valve resistance measurements should read:

Repair Information
1
TCV Solenoid Shorted
to Ground
Verify 7 to 19 ohms between Traction Control Valve (TCV) and TCV
common. Verify no continuity between TCV leads and ground. Check
for corroded/damaged wiring or connectors between the ECU and TCV.
2
TCV Solenoid Shorted
to Voltage
Verify 7 to 19 ohms between TCV and TCV common. Verify no continuity
between TCV leads and voltage. Check for corroded/damaged wiring or
connectors between ECU and TCV.
3
TCV Solenoid Open
Circuit
Verify 7 to 19 ohms between TCV and TCV common. Check for corroded/
damaged wiring or connectors between ECU and TCV.
4
TCV Conguration Error The ECU is not congured for ESP or ATC, but has detected the presence
of a TCV. Verify TCV wiring. Inspect for the presence of a TCV. Verify
the ECU conguration.
NOTE: When troubleshooting Traction
Control Valve DTCs, it may be useful to look
for a potential connection between them and
ECU DTCs (in particular, DTCs 13‑8 and 13‑18
shown on page 36).
ATR valve inspections should include: looking for kinked air hoses; inside the harness socket on the valve for
removed or corroded connector pins; and a test to verify that the ATC valve solenoids are functioning correctly.
