Fault-Tracing Information







Fault-tracing

Checking the gear-shift position sensor




- Check that the gear selector cable is correctly adjusted. Adjust if necessary.
- Ignition on.
- Read off the position of the gear selector.
Shift the gear selector to all gear positions several times. This is to check the function of the gear selector sensor.
The selected position must be the same as that displayed in the diagnostic tool.

Note! If the value indicates "Undefined position" in P, R, N or D, the adjustment of the mechanical cable must be checked and the values must be read off again.

- Gear selector cable, adjusting









Continue - Erasing diagnostic trouble code (DTC)

-------------------------------------------------

Erasing diagnostic trouble code (DTC)

Note! In the event of erasing, all stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) with corresponding information disappear. If there are other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for Transmission control module (TCM), these must be fault-traced first. If necessary, go to Vehicle communication and read out "Extended diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information"




- Ignition on.
- Erase diagnostic trouble codes by clicking the VCT2000 symbol.









Continue - Calibrating the position sensor in the control module

-------------------------------------------------

Calibrating the position sensor in the control module




- Ignition on.
- Place the gear selector lever in neutral position (N).
Activate calibration of the position sensor in the control module by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.

Caution! During calibration, it is important that no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for the gear selector module (GSM) are stored and that the gear selector assembly is otherwise free of faults.









Continue - Reading off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)

Verification





Verification




- Ignition off.
- Wait two minutes.
- Ignition on.
- Move the gear selector several times to all gear positions.




- Read off the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.

Is the relevant diagnostic trouble code (DTC) still stored?

Yes - No Fault Found

No - FAULT FOUND

Reading off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)




- Ignition off.
- Wait two minutes.
- Ignition on.
- Move the gear selector several times to all gear positions.
- Read off the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.
If present code diagnostic fault code (DTC) remains stored replace the transmission control module (TCM).
