Signal Too Low

Signal too low

Checking shift solenoid S2




- Ignition on
- Activate solenoid S2.
Check the status of solenoid S2. The status should switch between OFF and ON.
The fault is permanent if the status does not change.
If the status changes, this indicates an intermittent fault, i.e. the fault was present previously but is not active at the moment.

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

Checking the wiring and component








- Ignition off
- Open the transmission control system.
Check connector C (22-pin) for the transmission control module (TCM). Check for contact resistance. Check for oxidation.
Check the cable between transmission connector terminal #C2 and the connector for solenoid S2. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

Hint: Check solenoid S2 by taking a reading of the resistance between the solenoid connector and ground with the ignition off, the transmission connector C (22-pin) disconnected and the breakout box connected. For the resistance values, see below.

Resetting adaptation and oil quality counter





Resetting 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 transmission control module (TCM) 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.
- Gear selector in position P
Click on the VCT2000 symbol to reset the adaptation and counter.

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








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the components, reconnect the connectors etc.
- Ignition on
- Activate solenoid S2. Click on the VCT2000 symbol.
Read off the status of solenoid S2. The status must switch between OFF and ON.

Information

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
