Fault-Tracing

Fault-tracing TCM-DD01

Checking communication with the gear selector (GSM)




- Ignition on
- Check if the communication with Gear selector module (GSM) works by moving the gear selector to position Man. Then move the gearshift selector toward both + and -, and check that the value has been updated in the driver information module's display window.
The fault is permanent if the value does not change.
If the status switches it means that the fault was present previously but is not active now. There is an intermittent fault.










Continue - Checking the components and wiring

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

Checking the components and wiring
Check the communication cable (LIN) between transmission control module (TCM) #A7 and gear selector module (GSM) #2 for open circuit and short-circuit to ground or voltage.
If no fault can be found in the cable and the fault remains try replacing the printed circuit board (gear selector module (GSM)).

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off.
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on.
- Check if the communication with Gear selector module (GSM) works by moving the gear selector to position Man. Then move the gearshift selector toward both + and -, and check that the value has been updated in the driver information module's display window.
The fault is permanent if the value does not change.
If the value changes, this indicates that the fault is intermittent, i.e. the fault was present previously but is not active at the moment.
