ISSUE:

Some 1995 MY vehicles equipped with ZF automatic transmissions in the VIN ranges may experience the following intermittent conditions:

1) Transmission Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) flashing on and off.

2) Transmission enters limp home mode. Transmission MIL remains on. Code P1777 is stored in the Engine Control Module and the PDU cannot communicate with the Transmission Control Module.

ACTION:

If a customer complains of either condition on a 1995 MY vehicle equipped with a ZF automatic transmission, a revised Transmission Control Module is available as installed in production from VIN 745841.

1. If the car exhibits condition 1, install the revised TCM.

2. If the car exhibits condition 2, read out the OBD II DTC(s) using the PDU. If DTC P1777 is found in the Engine Control Module, and the PDU cannot communicate with the TCM, install the revised TCM.

3. Record the DTC(s) on the Diagnostic Trouble Code Report form S-93.

TCM LOCATION

The TCM is located under the passenger side underscuttle. Refer to repair operation 44.15.32 in subsection 8.1.3 of the XJ6 - XJ12 Vehicle Service Manual.
