1. RESET MEMORY

NOTICE:
* Perform the RESET MEMORY (AT initialization) when replacing the automatic transmission assembly, valve body, engine assembly or TCM.

Therefore, when the automatic transmission assembly, valve body, transmission wire, engine assembly, or TCM has been replaced, it is necessary to reset the memory so that the TCM can memorize the new information.
