PROBABLE CAUSES
^ Malfunction of TC-SST-ECU
^ Malfunction of clutch cooling flow solenoid
^ Insufficient fluid level
^ Improper installation of Mechatronic assembly

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Required Special Tools:
^ MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

^ MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to Troubleshooting.) CAN Bus Diagnostics Chart After repairing the CAN bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the fluid.

Q:Is the fluid level proper?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Add the fluid.

STEP 3. Check whether the DTC is reset.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) With the engine idle status, check that the DTC is reset.

Q:Is DTC No.P0777 set?
YES : Replace the transaxle assembly.
NO : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction.) Troubleshooting Contents
