1-2 Sol (Solenoid) and 2-3 Sol (Solenoid): Scan tool displays ON or OFF. These parameters are the commanded
states of the 1-2 and the 2-3 shift solenoid valves. ON indicates a commanded
energized solenoid state, and OFF indicates a commanded non-energized
solenoid state.
1-2 Sol (Solenoid) Open/Short to GND: Scan tool displays YES or NO. This parameter indicates whether an open or a short to ground exists in the 1-2 shift solenoid valve feedback signal to the PCM. The 1-2 shift solenoid valve must be commanded OFF for this parameter to work.

When the display indicates ON, the line pressure and the shift times will be adjusted for the additional engine load.

When the display indicates Disabled, the PCM has disabled cruise control operation. The PCM has the ability to disable cruise control under certain conditions. When the cruise control is Enabled, shift patterns will be altered for 2-3 and 3-4 upshifts and for 4-3 and 3-2 downshifts.
