Listed GM 6-speed transmissions often set various trouble codes related to failures of fluid pressure switches that are
internal to the transmission electro-hydraulic control module (TEHCM). These codes may be accompanied by TCC apply
problems or shift irregularities such as slipping, flares, harsh application, and bind-ups. As time goes by, the laminated
portions of the pressure switches can breach, preventing normal switch operation. If more than one switch breaks down,
failsafe mode can be triggered. Since switches cannot be obtained through OE channels, replacement of the TEHCM was the
only previous remedy available.
It is no longer necessary to replace the expensive TEHCM assembly to rectify this concern. Installing Sonnax pressure switch
rebuild master pack 124740-28K restores normal switch operation, eliminating codes and providing renewed shift
performance in all ranges.
Allows salvage of expensive TEHCM
Installation tools included in kit

Note -
Before installing kit, test switches to verify proper electrical operation. Kit repairs laminate disc and seal failures only; it
will not rectify electrical breakdown. See instructions for details.
