>To prevent a bump due to A/C clutch engagement, a temporary torque converter partial EMCC condition is established prior to A/C clutch engagement. A message is received over the bus indicating
that A/C clutch engagement is imminent. Partial EMCC is then established and a reply message, "OK to engage A/C clutch" is sent via the bus. Partial EMCC will be held for 450 ms before returning to full
EMCC. During the transition from full to partial EMCC, a turbine acceleration sum is calculated, if this value exceeds a threshold value for several transitions, degraded transmission fluid is indicated. </ptxt></para></condition></diagnostic><diagnostic
