Electrical Fault 2016 Prostar

Hello guys, Heavy D, if you are out there this is for you! I have a 2016 Prostar with the ISX15 and Eaton 10 speed Auto Trans (Push Button). The truck batteries were low and there was a very slow crank. I hooked a jump box up and still had a slow crank or a low voltage/amp crank. The engine would slowly turn over but not fast enough to fire. After trying several times, the key was left in the crank position for too long resulting in an electrical fault along with ABS module message coming on in the cluster message center. When this happened, the truck will no longer turn over. The batteries were changed, all fuses/relays were checked but still no crank. Truck was scanned, there were codes that made no sense, for example output shaft speed sensor, The codes would clear but come back within 3 seconds using a scanner. The Batteries have been disconnected multiple times over about a week, trying to reset the modules, with no luck. (Electrical fault still shows up) The truck will start if you jump the starter, however the transmission will not engage. The "DRN" (Drive, Reverse, Neutral) only flashes when pressed. I believe the low voltage crank corrupted a module or fried a module, therefor the truck does not know it is in Neutral, therefore it will not crank with the key. I had the truck towed to International. I gave detailed notes of what was going on, however the tech never read them, therefore, spending 3 hours and coming up with a bad starter.........No, it's not the starter, it starts if you add 12 volts to the solenoid, and the transmission doesn't engage or read......After updating him, he says there is not any communication with the TCM. They want another 4 hours to check power and grounds before replacing the TCM. They say there is only 1 TCM in the world and it's in Canada at $5,000 plus $200 for shipping + install and programming and is 2 weeks out. Whoooo Saaaawwww!!!! Question is: Do you think that the TCM itself is fried, electrical issue in the wiring/connections, or is there something else to have checked?
Also, The dealer was able to find someone to build out a new TCM, however they want 8 hours to R&R the TCM. Does this sound right? From what I see the TCM is just on the side of the trans with a few bolts and 2 connectors. Thanks! Thank you in advance!!!!

 

Did you ever get a resolution? My truck is currently doing the same exact thing, word for word.

 

Well, if its exactly like the above just hard wire one of these remote starters in and your back on the road.

Let me know if it works, if it does ill send you my bill.

 

it turns out it was the tcm in our case. we installed a new tcm and recalibrated the grade sensor and she runs like a champ.

 

Did you get this resolved?

 

@Heavyd Now it might be seen

 

The original poster did pm me about this and I believe he also had another thread about it. Basically, low voltage cranking fried the transmission TCM. Replaced the TCM and all good.

 

I did, Thank you. It was the TCM.

 

In our case, the battery voltage was very low and insufficient to crank truck. We hooked our 16 volt jump box to it and we believe that 16v jump fried the TCM. Truck couldnt see neutral and locked out the starter.

 

Hope you didn’t get charged 8 hours to change. More like 2 including a road test.
