C0376

Circuit Description
The front and rear propshaft speed sensor is a permanent magnet (PM) generator. The PM generator produces a pulsing AC voltage. The AC voltage level and number of pulses increases as speed increases. The module converts the pulsating AC voltage to a propshaft RPM which is used for calculations. The module only looks at these inputs together when the vehicle is in 4H, 4L, and AUTO (Adapt) range only. The propshaft RPM can be displayed with a scan tool.
This DTC detects greater than 20% difference in the speed sensor inputs.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The transfer case shift control module detects continued readings of front and rear propshaft speed signal which do not match. Module can not determine propshaft speed.
The system will log the DTC if the front and rear propshaft inputs indicates a speed of less than 20% difference for 40 seconds while all of the following are true:
^ the transmission NOT in Park/Neutral.
^ The engine is running.
^ The front axle is engaged.
^ The front propshaft indicates speed less than 75 mph.
^ The front propshaft or rear propshaft speed exceeds 512 RPM.
^ the vehicle speed On Class 2 Data bus exceeds 10 mph.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ All Shifts to AUTO (Adapt) mode will be disabled. If the current mode is AUTO, the system will not allow any further adaptive events (correct slip).
^ The SERVICE indicator (AWD/4WD) lamp will be latched on for the remainder of the current ignition cycle.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ The transfer case shift control module will clear the DTC if the condition for setting the DTC no longer exists.
^ A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles without a fault present.
^ History DTCs can be cleared using a scan tool.





Test Description
The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.
4. This step attempt to determine whether a fault exists in the rear propshaft speed sensor circuit.
5. This step attempts to determine whether a fault exists in the front propshaft speed sensor circuit.
