P0602 - Control Module Programming Error/Not Programmed

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate Wiring Diagram.

Theory Of Operation 

The controller is programmed during manufacturing with generic software to facilitate testing. This software does not have the proper calibrations to control a transmission in a vehicle. The check for generic software is made at power-up. If generic software is found, the MIL will light immediately and the MIL will stay on even if the fault is cleared, until the proper software is installed. Note: Transmission will be placed in limp-in mode.

Possible Causes
PCM - PROGRAMMING ERROR

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Refer to TRANSMISSION PRE-DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE .
