gt1 success ! failsafe questions

Hello guys, so hopefully, someone can benefit from my experience, I was finally able to get the GT1 working.....OBD was showing p1748, transmission module self test. GT1 reads, or looks like either 0F (zero F), or OF ( letter "O" F) and it says PRESSURE ACTUATOR EDS, TOTAL CURRENT.

Does that mean anything to anybody??? I also cleared codes 31 and 22, but the persisten is the 0F....

as far as the GT1, man, I was ready to shoot something, I said to myself, this is the last time, then it's going back on ebay....and voila! it worked.....not quite sure how I accomplished it, but it worked!

thanks guys,
2000, E53

run the test plan on the error and should tell you what to do or how to test it.

EGS module should be under the hood, under the wipers area. However, the error doesn't indicate the module to be faulty. Run the test plan like mywidebody02 recommended.

Btw, all hex are zero indeed, not letter O
