Went to start the truck this morning and get nothing, then the fob is locked out of off position. Starts flashing shift to drive etc... scanned it u0101. Crawl under and unplug the trans to find this. Looks like definitely one pin is rotted and broke off in the pigtail. Pretty sure the pigtail is available but what are my options transmission side? Is there a module in there with the connector i can replace, how much tear down is necessary?1000003369.jpg

So this is on the TCM. Does anyone offer a repair service for it? Other than the connector there's no problems with the valve body or the TCM.

Prty sure you need to replace the pigtail and valve body others will comment but thats kind of odd that it would corrode like that was this a flood truck? or maybe off roading alot.

Not that I know of. Bought it from the dealer with 64k on it. Now at 92k. I have a powertrain warranty they gave me through fidelity warranty services but I have to call the dealer and see if they even think this would be covered.

Replaced but before just clean up properly remove pigtail from terminal if corroded ones cut it put new terminal crimp put it back to pigtail and clean electrical spray and put dielectrics grease maybe it will work if not replaced pigtails with properly connections when you’re doing this remove main batter both side cables it should be no electric even 0.01 because it could damage pcm bcm or related parts.
