> Quick Learn should generally not be used as a
repair procedure unless directed by a repair or
diagnostic procedure. If the transmission system
is exhibiting a problem that you think is caused
by an invalid CVI, you should try to relearn the
value by performing the appropriate driving ma-
neuver. In most cases, if a quick learn makes a
vehicle shift better, the vehicle will return with
the same problem.
> Before performing Quick Learn, it is imperative
that the vehicle be shifted into OD with the
engine running and the oil level set to the correct
level. This step will purge air from the clutch
circuits to prevent erroneous clutch volume val-
ues which could cause poor initial shift quality.
> If an unused TCM is installed on a vehicle with a
HOT engine, Quick Learn will cause the TCM to
report a cold calculated oil temperature. This
requires monitoring the calculated oil tempera-
ture using the DRBIIIt. If the temperature is
below 15C (60É F), the transmission must be run
at idle or driven in gear until it goes above 15C
(60ÉF). If the temperature is above 93C (200ÉF),
the transmission must cool to below 93C (200ÉF).
> First gear is engaged in overdrive after Quick
Learn is completed. Place the vehicle in park
after performing Quick Learn.
The Quick Learn function should be performed:
± Upon installation of a new service TCM
± After replacement or rebuild of internal trans-
mission components or the torque converter
± If one or more of the clutch volumes indexes
(CVI's) contain skewed readings because of
abnormal conditions.
To perform the Quick Learn procedure, the fol-
lowing conditions must be met.
± It is imperative that the vehicle be shifted into
OD with the engine running and the oil level
set to the correct level. This step will purge the
air in the clutch circuits to prevent erroneous
clutch volume values, which could cause poor
initial shift quality.
± The brakes must be applied.
± The engine must be idling.
± The throttle angle (TP sensor) must be less
than 3 degrees.
± The shift lever position must stay in neutral
until prompted to shift into OD.
± The shift lever must stay in OD after the9Shift
to Overdrive9prompt until the DRBIIItindi-
cates the procedure is complete.
± The oil temperature must be between 15C
(60ÉF) and 93C (200ÉF).NOTE:The above conditions must be maintained
during the procedure to keep the procedure from
being aborted.
The Quick Learn procedure is performed with the
DRBIIItby selecting9Transmission9system then
9Miscellaneous9functions, then9Quick Learn9. Follow
the procedure instructions displayed on the DRBIIIt.
3.3.9 CLUTCH VOLUMES
The L-R clutch volume is updated when doing a
2-1 or 3-1 coast down shift. The transmission tem-
perature must be between 21-49C (70-120É F). The
clutch volume should be between 35 and 83.
The 2-4 clutch volume is updated when doing a
1-2 shift. The transmission temperature must be
above 43C (110ÉF). The clutch volume should be
between 20 and 77.
The OD clutch volume is updated when doing a
2-3 shift. The transmission temperature must be
above 43C (110ÉF). The clutch volume should be
between 40 and 150.
The UD clutch volume is updated when doing a
4-3 or 4-2 shift. The transmission temperature must
be above 43C (110ÉF). The clutch volume should be
between 24 and 70.
3.3.10 ELECTRONIC PINION FACTOR
The transmission output speed signal supplies
distance pulses to the powertrain control module
(PCM), which are used to calculate speed and
mileage. A pinion factor is stored in the transmis-
sion control module (TCM) in order to provide the
appropriate distance pulses for the vehicle. The
pinion factor is programmed into the TCM at the
assembly plant.
Using the following steps, the pinion factor can be
checked and/or reset using the DRBIIIt:
1. Select Transmission system, then Miscellaneous
functions, then Pinion Factor. The DRBIIItwill
display the current tire size.
2. If the tire size is incorrect, depress the Enter key
and then select the correct size.
3. Depress the Page Back key to exit the reset
procedure.
Notes About Electronic Pinion Factor Features
The nature of the electronic pinion factor requires that
certain features must be taken into consideration.
> If no pinion factor is stored in an installed TCM,
the vehicle speedometer will not operate, engine
speed will be limited to 2300 RPM, and catalyst
damage may occur.
> Selecting a wrong tire size will cause the speed-
ometer to be inaccurate and will also cause any
speed related features to operate improperly.
Note: After replacing the TCM, you must
reprogram pinion factor

3.5.1 DRBIIITDOES NOT POWER UP
(BLANK SCREEN)
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at
start up, check for loose cable connections or a bad
cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage. A mini-
mum of 11 volts is required to adequately power the
DRBIIIt.
If all connections are proper between the DRBIIIt
and the vehicle or other devices, and the vehicle
battery is fully charged, an inoperative DRBIIIt
may be the result of faulty cable or vehicle wiring.
For a blank screen, refer to the appropriate Body
Diagnostic manual.
3.5.2 DISPLAY IS NOT VISIBLE
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the
display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this
condition.
3.6 TRANSMISSION SIMULATOR
(MILLER TOOL # 8333) AND FWD
ADAPTER (MILLER TOOL #8333-1)
The transmission simulator, simply put, is an
electronic device that simulates the electronic func-
tions of any EATX controlled transmission (41TE,
42LE, 45RFE, and 545RFE). It's basic function is toaid the technician in determining if an internal
transmission problem exists or if the problem re-
sides in the vehicle wiring or Transmission Control
Module (TCM). It is only useful for electrical prob-
lems. It will not aid in the diagnosis of a failed
mechanical component, but it can tell you that the
TCM and wiring are working properly and that the
problem is internal.
The ignition switch should be in the lock position
before attempting to install the simulator. Follow
all instructions included with the simulator. If the
feedback from the simulator is in doubt, you can
verify it's operation by installing it on a known good
vehicle. A9known good vehicle9would be defined as
a vehicle that does not set any DTC's and drives and
shifts as expected.
One important point to remember is that the
Simulator receives it's power from the Trans Relay
Output circuit. If the transmission system is in
Limp-in (Relay open), the simulator will not oper-
ate. This is not really an indication of a problem,
but an additional symptom. If the simulator does
not power up (9P9led lit), this is an indication that
the problem is still present with the simulator
hooked up. This indicates that the problem is in the
wiring or TCM and not the transmission.
Miller Tool # 8333-1 consists of the adapter cables
and overlay necessary to adapt the simulator to
41TE and 42LE transmissions.

Some operations in this manual require that
hydraulic tubes, hoses, and fittings, disconnected
for inspection or testing purposes. These systems,
when fully charged contains fluid at high pressure.
Before disconnecting any hydraulic tubes, hoses or
fittings, be sure that the system is fully depressur-
ized.
When servicing a vehicle, always wear eye pro-
tection and remove any metal jewelry such as
watchbands or bracelets that might make an inad-
vertent electrical contact.
When diagnosing a transmission system problem,
it is important to follow approved procedures where
applicable. Following these procedures is very im-
portant to the safety of individuals performing
diagnostic tests.
4.2.2 VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR
TESTING
Make sure the vehicle being tested has a fully
charged battery. If it does not, false diagnostic codes
or error messages may occur. It is extremely impor-
tant that accurate shift lever position data be avail-
able to the TCM. The accuracy of any diagnostic
trouble code found in memory is doubtful unless the
Shift Lever Test, performed on the DRBtScan Tool,
passes.
4.2.3 SERVICING SUB-ASSEMBLIES
Some components of the powertrain system are
intended to be serviced in assembly only. Attempt-
ing to remove or repair certain system subcompo-
nents may result in personal injury and/or im-
proper system operation. Only those components
with approved repair and installation procedures in
the service instructions should be serviced.

²Follow the vehicle manufacturer 's service speci-
fications at all times.
²Do not use the DRBtif it has been damaged.
²Do not use the test leads if the insulation is
damaged or if metal is exposed.
²To avoid electrical shock, do not touch the test
leads, tips, or the circuit being tested.
²Choose the proper range and function for the
measurement. Do not try voltage or current mea-
surements that may exceed the rated capacity.
²Do not exceed the limits shown in the table.

circuit.
²Voltage between any terminal and ground must
not exceed 500v peak AC.
²Use caution when measuring voltage above 25v
DC or 25v AC.
²The circuit being tested must be protected by a
10A fuse or circuit breaker.
²Use the low current shunt to measure circuits up
to 10A. Use the high current clamp to measure
circuits exceeds 10A.
²When testing for the presence of voltage or cur-
rent, make sure the meter is functioning cor-
rectly. Take a reading of a known voltage or
current before attempting a zero reading.
²When measuring current, connect the meter in
series with the load.
²Disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting
the common test lead.
²When using the meter function, keep the DRBt
away from spark plug or coil wires to avoid

4.3 WARNINGS
4.3.1 VEHICLE DAMAGE WARNINGS
Before disconnecting any control module, make
sure the ignition is ªoffº. Failure to do so could
damage the module.
When testing voltage or continuity at any control
module, use the terminal side (not the wire end) of
the connector. Do not probe a wire through the
insulation; this will damage it and eventually cause
it to fail because of corrosion.
Be careful when performing electrical tests so as
to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such
mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a
second code could be set, making diagnosis of the
original problem more difficult.
4.3.2 ROAD TEST COMPLAINT VEHICLE
Some complaints will require a test drive as part
of the repair verification procedure. The purpose of
the test drive is to try to duplicate the diagnostic
code or symptom condition.
CAUTION: BEFORE ROAD TESTING A
VEHICLE, BE SURE THAT ALL
COMPONENTS ARE REASSEMBLED.
DURING THE TEST DRIVE, DO NOT TRY TO
READ THE DRBIIITSCREEN WHILE IN
MOTION. DO NOT HANG THE DRBIIITFROM
THE REAR VIEW MIRROR OR OPERATE IT
YOURSELF. HAVE AN ASSISTANT
AVAILABLE TO OPERATE THE DRBIIIT.
Road testing is an essential step in the diagnostic
process that must not be overlooked. Along with
diagnostic information obtained from the DRBIIIt
Scan Tool and the original customer concern, the
road test helps to verify the problem and observe
operation under actual vehicle driving conditions.
Just as important as the road test is, there are
preliminary inspections that should be carried out
prior to the road test. Always check the fluid level
and condition before going on a road test or per-
forming other tests. Also try to determine the type
of fluid being used. Improper fluid can result in
problems. Additionally, a variety of complaints can
be caused by incorrect fluid level. Some of the
conditions caused by incorrect fluid level are as
follows:
²Delayed engagement
²Poor shifting or erratic shifts
²Excessive noise
²Overheating
The next step is to verify that the shift linkage is
correctly adjusted. If the gearshift linkage is incor-rectly adjusted because of wear or incorrect adjust-
ment, a number of complaints can result.
The TCM monitors the Shift Lever Position (SLP)
Sensor at all times. If the linkage is incorrectly
adjusted, the TCM may sense a shift lever position
that is not correct for the gear range chosen by the
driver. This may cause diagnostic trouble codes to
be set and a possible limp-in situation.
The following complaints may also be the result
of an incorrectly adjusted or worn linkage.
²Delayed clutch engagement or erratic shifts
²Vehicle able to drive in Neutral
²Engine not able to crank in Park or Neutral
²Gearshift linkage able to be shifted without the
key in the ignition
²Not able to remove the ignition key in Reverse
²Parking pawl not engaging
The shift linkage should also be adjusted when
replacing the transaxle, repairing the valve body or
repairing any component between the shift lever
and the transaxle.
Some questions to ask yourself when considering
the road test are listed below:
²Is the complaint or concern what you think it is,
based the driver 's description of the problem?
²Is the transaxle operating normally, or is there a
real problem?
²When does the malfunction occur?
²Is the problem in only one gear range?
²What temperature does the complaint occur?
²Is the transaxle in limp-in mode?
4.3.3 ELECTRONIC PINION FACTOR
WARNINGS
The pinion factor must be set for all new trans-
mission control modules. If the pinion factor is not
set or if it is set incorrectly, any speedometer, speed
control, rolling door locks, and other devices that
are operated by the powertrain and body controllers
will not function properly.
