Diagnostic boundary

A diagnostic trouble code reports that a monitored test failed. It does not prove one specific part is bad, and manufacturer logic can add vehicle-specific conditions.

Do not assume the transmission needs overhaul until pressure, solenoid, fluid, and speed-sensor data are reviewed.
