The tan wire (1) of the Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Solenoid Valve harness may be incorrectly routed around a metal retaining clip causing a chafe in the wire insulation, resulting in a short to ground. The harsh shift concern is due to the default code causing high line pressure to be commanded.

Correction

If diagnosis indicates a grounded circuit, replace the transmission wiring harness following the published replacement procedure in SI. Be sure to route the tan wire out of the metal clip.

When servicing 2007 vehicles, the metal clip for the temperature sensor connector on the new harness must be removed and discarded prior to installation. Reuse the plastic clip from the old harness.

Dude I am not sure about that.

Maybe someone else knows, sorry.

So I brought my car to the dealer and you were right it was the Transmission Wiring Harness they had to replace, cost about 190 bucks to replace but at least its fixed now.

Well, I am glad you got it fixed. I don't understand why they charged you for the repair, it's a TSB so I think that would indicate a manufacturer defect.

Seems like there are many defects with these cars. Luckily I have not had much trouble with mine. It seems like its always stupid things that are giving people the most trouble.

I think I am going to buy a classic car next. Been looking at a 70 LaMans with a 389 and 400 turbo. Not all original but it has upgraded suspension, steering and has been lowered 1" and has 15" thrust wheels. Does not have all the bells and whistles but I know I can put 100k miles on it with no problems.

It looks good and is silly fast.
