Part 1
Control module adaptation
Checking the software
Note! To carry out adaptation, the transmission control module (TCM) must be programmed with specific software.
- Ignition on
- Read off the control module diagnostic number.
Check the read off diagnostic number against the diagnostic numbers given in the center table.
If the diagnostic number is included in the table, the control module must be programmed with the latest software.
Press "pause" and select "Save a bookmark" so that the method can be resumed. Go to the software manager and program the control module with the latest software.
See the technical journal for information about the most recent software.
Continue - Conditions for adaptation
-------------------------------------------------
Conditions for adaptation
Note!
- The oil level in the transmission must be checked first to ensure that the software in the transmission control module (TCM) can be adapted correctly. Adjust if necessary. The transmission fluid must also be at operating temperature (65 -110 °C)
- Winter (W) mode must not be active when adapting
- After activation of "Adaptation mode" and when the correct transmission fluid temperature has been reached, the message " Transmission fluid temperature too high" is displayed in the combined instrument panel display
- During adaptation, gear position D must be used unless otherwise indicated. The control module cannot be adapted in the "Man" (Geartronic) position.
Other information
- To check and adjust the transmission fluid level, see Oil level, checking Checking Oil Level.
Continue - Activating adaptation mode
-------------------------------------------------
Activating adaptation mode
Hint: The following method is for a basic adaptation of the transmission.
For more sporty driving styles, the basic adaptation may not give an improved shifting quality. The method can be adapted to cover the engine speeds at which the shift quality problems occur. However you must ensure that the orange/yellow warning lamp lights exactly as with the basic adaptation.
Note! Always begin with a basic adaptation.
- Connect the VIDA station
- Start the engine
- Gear selector in position P
- Activate "Adaptation Mode".
Note! Do not switch off the engine.
- Disconnect the VIDA station. Test drive the car as described below.
Start the test drive after the text message is displayed in the combined instrument panel.
The general orange/yellow warning lamp is used during the adaptation as an indicator to show that a target value has been reached. The warning lamp goes out after 2-4 seconds, depending on the type of adaptation that has been carried out.
Test drive description for up-shift adaptation
1. Accelerate gently at an engine speed of approximately 1400 rpm up to 4th gear. Hold the accelerator pedal (AP) in a fixed position throughout the acceleration. Stop the car and repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after each shift. A number of accelerations may be required to obtain the correct result.
Note! 5th gear will not be available at this engine speed.
2. Carry out another acceleration, but this time up to 5th gear. Raise the engine speed to approximately 1800 rpm. Hold the accelerator pedal (AP) in a fixed position throughout the acceleration. Repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after each shift. A number of accelerations may be required to obtain the correct result
3. Accelerate again up to 5th gear, but this time raise the engine speed to approximately 2500 rpm. Hold the accelerator pedal (AP) in a fixed position throughout the acceleration. Repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after each shift. A number of accelerations may be required to obtain the correct result.
Note! The transmission control module (TCM) adapts continuously. Not all shifts will be "perfect". For example, the orange/yellow warning lamp will not light after each shift from 1-2. The lamp only needs to have lit once for each shift at each engine speed to be sure that the adaptation has reached its target value.
Test drive description for down-shift adaptation
1. Drive the car at approximately 70 km/h (45 mph) in 5th gear. Release the accelerator pedal (AP) and brake gently to a standstill
2. Repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after each downshift. Note that a number of retardations may be required to obtain the correct result. If it is difficult to achieve the correct result: increase or reduce the pressure on the brake pedal.
Description of adaptation of "garage shifting"
1. Run the engine at idle speed and hold the brake pedal pressed down. Then move the gear selector to position N. Wait 5 seconds. Move the gear selector to the R position. Wait 5 seconds. Then move the gear selector back to N. The adaptation is complete when the orange/yellow warning lamp lights when the gear selector is in the R position
2. Run the engine at idle speed and hold the brake pedal pressed down. Then move the gear selector to position N. Wait 5 seconds. Move the gear selector to the D position. Wait 5 seconds. Then move the gear selector back to N. The adaptation is complete when the orange/yellow warning lamp lights when the gear selector is in the D position.
Information for car with "Neutral check"
When disengagement of clutch C1 is OK, the orange/yellow warning lamp will light when the gear selector is moved to position D and the brake pedal is pressed down. This takes 1-3 seconds.
Description of adaptation of "Neutral check"
1. Drive slowly, at approximately 10 km/h (5 mph) with the gear selector in position D. Brake carefully until the car is stationary. Repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after the car has stopped. The position for C1 disengagement has been adapted when the lamp lights
2. Run the engine at idle speed and hold the brake pedal pressed down. Move the gear selector to position D. Wait approximately 25 seconds until the general orange/yellow warning lamp has lit. When the warning lamp has lit, release the brake pedal and let the car roll slowly forwards. Repeat the procedure until the general orange/yellow warning lamp lights after the brake pedal has been released. The position for C1 engagement has been adapted when the lamp lights.
Note! The general orange/yellow warning lamp will not light each time. The lamp only needs to have lit once for the adaptation to have reached its target value.
Continue - DONE
Numeric Result 0 - Communication fault
-------------------------------------------------
Communication fault
Communication has been interrupted for one of the following reasons:
- The ignition is switched off
- VCT2000 disconnected from the data link connector (DLC)
- VCT2000 disconnected from the VIDA cart
- Communication problems in VIDA application or in car.
- No voltage in the data link connector (DLC).
Check therefore:
- That the control module power supply and ground terminal are fault-free.
- That the fuse for the data link connector (DLC) is intact.
- that the ignition is on
- that the battery voltage (system voltage) is normal (approximately 12 V).
If necessary a battery charger can be connected during the test.
For information about charge currents and the battery, see: Battery, charging Battery, Charging
- that VCT2000 is correctly connected to the VIDA cart and the data link connector (DLC)
- that VCT2000 and the wiring is fault-free.
Other information
- For information about fuse and terminal numbers, see the relevant Wiring Diagram.
Try to establish communication again or exit reading off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). Depending on the communication fault, select one of the following options.
1. Try again
2. Fault-trace more comprehensively for the communication problem that has occurred
3. Exit fault-tracing / Read off from the next system.

------------------------
Checking communication errors, car model S40 (04-) / V50
Hint: Test the communication with another corresponding vehicle to decide if the malfunction is in the vehicle or in VIDA/VCT/cable harness. If the communication works on another vehicle, the malfunction is in the vehicle.
Hint: For current information about each circuit and signals, see wiring diagram and signal description for each system.
Diagnostic outlet
- Check the voltage feed to diagnostic outlet #16. The voltage shall match battery voltage.
- Check the cable for power ground and signal ground to diagnostic outlet #4 and #5.
Hint: When VCT2000 is connected to the diagnostic outlet (is supplied with voltage), the indicator diode shall be activated with a green light. Then the indicator diode flashes quickly when communication takes place with a control module. In case of certain internal malfunctions on VCT2000 the indicator diode is activated with a red light!
Communication cables
- For communication problems with control units onthe high-speed network, check communication cables between diagnostic outlet #6/ #14 and central electronic module (CEM) #B11/ #B12 for open circuit, short-circuit to ground and short-circuit to voltage according to references above.
- For communication problems with control units onthe low-speed network, check communication cables between diagnostic outlet #3/#11 and central electronic module (CEM) #B16/#B15 for open circuit, short-circuit to ground and short-circuit to voltage according to references above.
- Also check the communication cables for the low and high-speed net between the central electronic module (CEM) and the other connected control modules according to troubleshooting above.
Control modules
- Check that the control module's voltage feed and ground connection are trouble-free.
Caution! If none of the above checks help, try reading out diagnostic trouble codes in the central electronic module (CEM). Done via VIDA vehicle communication. A prerequisite for being able to communicate with the control modules in the vehicle is that the central electronic module (CEM) is active and can be communicated with. If communication is not possible with the central electronic module (CEM), check the voltage feed and ground for the central electronic module (CEM).
VCT2000 and cable harness
- Connect VCT2000 to the vehicle so that it is supplied with voltage. Test VCT2000 by selecting the system's self-test and VCT Test in the VIDA main menu. If any malfunction is found according to the test, first replace the cable harness then the VCT2000, if the test still indicates a malfunction.
- If no malfunctions were found after troubleshooting according to above, try with a new cable harness and/or new VCT2000.
VIDA
- If no malfunctions were found after troubleshooting according to above, try performing a complete system reset of VIDA.
