Was a fault detected?
Yes - Verification
No - Checking the control module
-------------------------------------------------
Checking the control module
- Ignition off
- The breakout box connected
- Connect the control module.
- Transmission connector disconnected
- Ignition on
- Gear selector in position P.
Check the transmission control module (TCM). Measure the voltage between terminal #51 (#A51) and terminal #53 (#A53) on the breakout box. The voltage must be approximately 0 V.
Try a new control module if the voltage exceeds 1 V.
Note! When removing the transmission connector, the control module may store diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for the gear-shift position sensor, the shift solenoids and the temperature sensor.

Was the voltage above 1V?
Yes - Verification
No - Check the circuit for the solenoid SL
-------------------------------------------------
Check the circuit for the solenoid SL
- Ignition off
- Open the transmission control system.
Check the cable between transmission connector terminal #T (#A17) and solenoid SL terminal #A. Check the cable between transmission connector terminal #E (#A5) and solenoid SL terminal #B. Check these cables for a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Check all the cables in the wiring harness from the transmission connector to the transmission components. Check for a short-circuit to each other.
Hint: Check solenoid SL. Measure the solenoid resistance between terminals #A and #B. The resistance must be between 10 and 15 ohms.
Remedy as necessary.

Continue - Resetting the adaptation and oil quality counter

Resetting the adaptation and oil quality counter
Resetting the adaptation
Resetting adaptation and the counter for "Transmission oil change"
Hint: The transmission has torque controlled adaptive pressure control. Pressure control means that the transmission regulates the pressure itself during each gear shift. This avoids harsh gear shifting. Each gear shift is evaluated by the control module and stored in the memory. This allows for compensation for wear and tear in the transmission and clutch. It is important that the adaptation in the memory is reset after the transmission has been repaired. This is to ensure normal operation. The oil is replaced during repair; the "Transmission oil change" counter must be reset. If the counter is not reset when the fluid is drained and replaced, there is a risk that a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) will be stored in incorrect circumstances.
Note! This applies only if the transmission or one of the components in the transmission have been replaced.
- Ignition on.
