Programming
If Programming is selected, a selection list is displayed which contains:
• Reset TAP Cells – This test allows the user to reset the Transmission Adapt (TAP) cells by pressing the Reset soft
key.
NOTE
Upon resetting the TAP cells the TCM loses all
learnt adaptive functions. When the vehicle is first
driven after this, the shifts may be harsh. This
harshness will ease as the TCM relearns the TAP
cells.

negative value indicates the engine speed is less than the output speed, deceleration. A positive value indicates the
engine speed is greater than the output speed, acceleration. A value of zero indicates the engine speed is equal to the

TFP Gear: This parameter displays Park/Neutral, Reverse , Drive4 , Drive3 , Drive2 , Drive1 or Invalid . This parameter
is the decoded status of the three A/B/C inputs from the automatic transmission fluid pressure manual valve position
switch. If a valid combination of inputs is not detected, invalid will be displayed.
TFP Swi A/B/C: This parameter displays Open 12 V / Closed 0 V for each switch. This parameter indicates the statues
of the three inputs from the automatic transmission fluid pressure manual valve position switch assembly.
Throttle Position: This parameter displays a calculated value, which is determined by the accelerator pedal position and
the actual throttle position, used to optimise transmission controls. It represents the driver’s intended requested for
torque or acceleration. The range is 0-100%, 0% represents an idle or coast request and 100% represents a request for
wide open throttle (WOT).
Torque Converter Efficiency: This parameter displays a ratio of 0.00:1 to 2:1. The ratio is calculates by multiplying the
speed ratio by a value related to the ‘K factor’ of the torque converter. The ‘K factor’ is the looseness or tightness of the
torque converter for a given torque. The nearer the torque converter is to full coupling, i.e. 1:1, the closer the torque
converter efficiency number will be to 1.
TR Switch A/B/C/P: This parameter displays the status of the four inputs from the transmission range switch. Tech 2
displays Open 12V / Closed 0 V . Open 12 V indicates an ignition voltage input to the control module. Closed 0 V
indicates a zero voltage input to the control module.
Transmission Fluid Temperature: This parameter displays the input signal of the transmission fluid temperature sensor.
Transmission fluid temperature is high, 151°C, when signal voltage is low, 0 V. Transmission fluid temperature is low, -
40°C, when signal voltage is high, 5 V.
Transmission Hot Mode: This parameter displays the automatic transmission fluid temperature (TFT) and displays On
or Off . Off indicates the TFT has not exceeded 130°C. On indicates the TFT has exceeded 130°C and has not cooled to
120°C for greater than 5 seconds. These numbers are approximate and differ with transmissions.
Vehicle Speed: This parameter displays the speed at which the vehicle is travelling. Tech 2 displays vehicle speed as
kilometres per hour (km/h). The vehicle speed is calculates based on the input signal from the automatic transmission
output shaft speed sensor.
3.4 Miscellaneous Tests
Tech 2
Miscellaneous Tests Description
Shift Solenoid A •
The TCM commands the 1-2 shift solenoid valve on and off. Tech 2’s Shift Solenoid A
Parameter should match the commanded state. Tech 2’s Commanded Gear
parameter should correspond with the shift solenoid combination. Refer to
5.6 Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio.
• When the ignition is on, and the engine is off, there no limits to this control. The
solenoid remains on until commanded off, and vice versa. W hen the test is exited, the
solenoid state is determined by the TCM.
• W hen the engine is running, the following control limits apply:
• Only sequential gear changes are allowed. For example, 1
st to 3rd is not allowed.
If a non-sequential gear change is attempted, the message Non-sequential
gear changes not allowed . Gear changes must be made in order appears
on Tech 2.
• The vehicle speed must be below a calibrated value. If the vehicle speed is too
high, the message Vehicle speed too high appears on Tech 2.
• The engine speed must be below a calibrated value. If the engine speed is too
high, the message Engine speed too high appears on Tech 2.
• Downshifts are allowed only when the vehicle speed is below a calibrated value.
If the vehicle speed is too high, the message Eng. is on and veh. speed to hi
for 3-2 or 2-1 downshift appears on Tech 2.
• The gear requested may not be greater than the current selected transmission
range (PRNDL). For example, 3
rd gear is not allowed if the transmission range is
D2. If the gear requested is greater than the current selected transmission
range, the message Eng. running and gear request is greater than the
current TR appears on Tech 2.
• The solenoid remains on until commanded off, and vice versa. W hen the test is
exited, the solenoid state is determined by the TCM.
