fe Fluid System
The
transm
ission is 'filled for life' and
does not require fluid changes, except where extreme driving conditions prevail.
Routine level checking is not required and a dipstick is not pr ovided. A level / filler plug is fitted for level checking and
replenishment, following service actions; see 303-01 General Procedures.
Transmission Torque Converter
Voltage is monitored at the regulators and solenoids for continuity and shorts. For example, when a solenoid is ON the
voltage on the TCM side should be ground , when OFF the voltage should be +12.
Shift Solenoid
The function of the three soleno id valves is to control the flow of transmissi on oil to the various transmission components.
Three solenoid valves are located wi thin the transmission assembly, and are closed when not energized.
Pressure Regulator
The function of the five pressu re regulators is to modulate the oil pressure to the various transmission components. The
regulators are pulse width modulated by the TCM, switching to ground potential. The other side of the regulators being
connected, via an internal TCM relay, to battery voltage. The regulator is closed when not energized by the TCM.
Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor
2.2. Check on non-volatile diagnostic memory by wr iting a test pattern and then reading it back.
3. 3. Internal 'watchdog' hardware to check whether the TCM has crashed.
Transmission Control Module Supply Voltage
The TCM monitors battery and igni tion switched supply voltages.
A permanent supply is used to maintain a battery backed 'memor y'. Should this supply be cut, due to battery disconnection
perhaps, the 'adaptive shift' valu es will be lost. This will result in a small reduction in shift quality for a period until th e
adaptions are 're-learned'
The TCM will adopt 'limp home' mode as a result of the supply voltage being >16V or <7V with an engine speed >1600
rpm.
Should the ignition supply be >7V but <9V the TCM will hold the gear that it has currently selected. If after 2.5 seconds,
with the engine speed >1600 rpm, the voltage remains at this level, 'limp home' mode will be adopted. The 2.5 second
delay is built in to prevent reaction to a momentary voltage fluctuation.
Operation
CAUTION: Disconnection of the TCM and / or the vehicle batt ery will cause system adaptions to be lost; this may be
apparent by shift quality degradation. Fo llowing reconnection, a period of 'varied' driving will reinstate adaptions and thus
normal operation. Please ensure that the customer is made aware that the adaption period is variable and may occur after
handover, as the transmission re-learns the prevailing driving style.
• NOTE: Should the TCM fail, please ensure that the control housing cooling fan is operating correctly. Failure of the cooling
fan MUST be rectified before renewing the TCM and details of a fan fa ilure should accompany the returned TCM.
The TCM processes information received in both analogue and digital form, such as:
Transmission input speed Transmission output speed Throttle position Pedal demand Gear selector position Engine torque Engine speed Transmission oil temperature Mode switch
This information is then used by the TC M to control shift energy management and decide which shift program to implement
and which gear to select.
The TCM uses the various sensors and inpu ts to monitor the correct operation of the system an d is programmed to take
default action and inform the operator when a fault occurs.
Safety Functions
The safety functions are designed to safeguard against inappr opriate actions by the operator as well as against system
malfunctions. The system prevents reve rse gear from being engaged at high forward speeds and prevents manual
downshifting at excessive engine speeds; these functions are not operational in mechanical limp-home mode.
The TCM constantly monitors the transmissi on for faults. In the event of a problem the TCM will adopt a 'limp home' mode
in which only P R N D - (selector in D but only fourth gear is enabled) are available. The operator will be made aware of
certain faults by an in strument panel warning.
The electrical and diagnostic system has been designed such that system integrity is protected at all times, the safety
concept being based on th e following three points:
1.1. The hydraulic system has 'fail-safe' characteristics regardin g its electrical operation, such that should the power
supply be lost to the electro-hydraulic actuators the transmission will initiate a limp-home mode.
2. 2. Recognition of critical shift operation by monitoring the last element in the signal path, ie the solenoid valve, and
checking by means of redundant me asured variables, ie engine speed, input speed and output speed.
3. 3. Each time the vehicle is started there is a check on the entire safety hardware and the associated program parts
and signal paths. A malfunction in this part of the system, or triggering of the safety circuit, is communicated to
the operator through the illumination of the transmission warning lamp.
TCM Inputs
Input Speed Sensor (Torque Converter Turbine)
The input speed sensor provides the TCM with transmission inpu t shaft speed information. This signal is produced from an
inductive pick-up, generating 30 pulses per revolution.
Transmission Output Speed Sensor
The output speed sensor provides the TCM with transmission ou tput shaft speed information. This signal is produced from
an inductive pick-up, generati ng 36 pulses per revolution.
Transmission Oil Temperature Sensor
A thermistor which provides an electrical indication of the oi l temperature to the TCM. The signal is measured as a voltage
with reference to analog ue ground in the TCM.
Kickdown Switch (where fitted)
Kickdown is intended to provide maximum vehicle acceleration , via the appropriate downshift(s), when the operator uses
full throttle. A kickdown switch provides an electrical signal to the TCM wh en the accelerator pedal is fully pressed. The
switch is normally open, connected to vehicle ground. Should the switch fail the TCM will detect kickdown using the
accelerator pedal position.
Throttle Pedal Stop (where fitted)
This component, used where the kickdown switch is not fitted, limits throttle pedal travel .in the same way. The kickdown
feature is retained, but is controlled by throttle position only. The pedal stop must be set, using the PDU, in the same way
as the kickdown switch to optimize performance.
Mode Selection Switch
The mode selection switch is a two position switch indicati ng to the TCM the current performance mode selected by the
driver. The switch generates a tw o-bit digital input to the TCM.
Rotary Position Switch
The rotary position switch detects the position of the transmis sion selector shaft. The switch is supplied as part of a new
transmission assembly, mounted on the transmission body. The swit ch is used to indicate to the TCM the six positions of the shaft: Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive, Third and Second. The switch provides a four-bit input to the TCM.
Drive to Fourth Switch
Detects the movement of the selector lever from Drive to Fourth position. The selector cable, and therefore the transmission selector shaft, does not move as the lever is operated between these two positions. The switch is located within the 'J-gate'
assembly, producing a digital output to indicate to the TCM that the lever has moved from D to 4 .
Serial Communications Interfaces
Controller Area Network (CAN)
The TCM is an integral part of the CAN system which facilitates the interchange of real-time data between control modules
and sensors. Please see section 303- 14 for a full description of CAN.
OBDII Interface
Data concerning OBDII related transmission failures is stored in the ECM for access via the J1962 socket.
System Functions
Range Selection
The selector lever is connected to the transmission via a bowden cable, which operates the transmission selector shaft
between all positions except Drive to 4 .
The TCM detects the gear selected by means of a rotary position switch fitted to the transmission selector shaft. A separate
Drive to 4 switch is located within the 'J' gate' assembly.
Movement of the selector lever between Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive manually directs th e flow of transmission oil; the
TCM having control of the forward gears selected while the lever is in the Drive position.
Shift Point Selection
The gearshift points are selected, by the TCM, as a function of the output speed, engine load, selector position and shift
program selected. The operator has control over the shift points via the selector lever, throttle pedal movement, kickdown
function and mode switch.
'J' Gate Layout
Mode Switch
This switch allows the driver to select one of two base shift maps; Normal and Sport modes, the switch being illuminated
when Sport is selected.
Special Shift Programs
These specific condition shift maps are available to enhance the operation of the vehicle under specific driving conditions.
and are listed below in order of priority / title and operating condition.
1. 1. Traction: When traction intervention is active
2. 2. Hot mode: Extreme engine / transmission temperatures
