/MPC Allison Transmissions Users Manual


Chapter 3 Using the WTEC Diagnostics Menu
IGN VOLTS
(WTEC II only)
11.1V Ignition VoltsThis voltage is used to determine if the
vehicle ignition is turned on. The ECU shuts off when
ignition is turned off and output speed is too low to
measure.
SOL APPLY VOLTS 11.1V Solenoid Apply VoltsThis voltage is measured inside
the ECU, downstream of some power supply compo-
nents. It is used for controlling the solenoid currents,
and for detecting ECU supply voltage that is either too
high or too low for normal operation.
DIMMER VOLTS
(WTEC II only)
11.8V This voltage is used to control the display intensity.
When it is zero, the ECU assumes that the headlights
are off and sets the display to full intensity. When the
dimmer voltage rises above a calibration level, the
display is set to minimum intensity. As the dimmer
voltage rises up to the same level as ignition voltage,
the display intensity also rises.
SUMP 161 F Sump temperature is measured by a thermistor located
in t he transmission sump. The function of the ther-
mistor is to detect cold oil temperature and limit
transmission operation until sump oil has reached a
minimum recommended temperature. It also serves to
limit transmission operation when the oil has reached
too high of a temperature. The ECU uses the sump
temperature information to assist in estimating clutch
fill times (affects smoothness of shifting) and to
estimate solenoid resistance (for current control). In
addition, the sump temperature is used as a variable to
permit oil level readings when the sump... and to limit
those readings to a range of between 140F and 220F.

SELECTED N This shows the actual gear selected by the operator.
The transmission will automatically shift from its
starting gear up to the gear range selected. Actual
means that the gears are displayed in the ECUs
internal naming scheme, L-6, N, and R.
ATTAINED N1 This shows the actual gear that is commanded by the
ECU at the moment. Actual means that the gears are
displayed in the ECUs internal naming scheme, L-6
with all the different neutral gears, and showing C or
L for converter or lock-up operation. Actual range
will always be the same for a given gear, while dis-
played ranges, described next in this table, can be
calibrated to display anything for a given gear.
DISPLAYED N This is the gear selected by the operator as shown on
the shift selector display. The ECU calibration deter-
mines what number is displayed for any given gear.
DISP ATTAINED N This is the actual gear that is commanded by the ECU
at the moment.
TPS PERCENT 0.0% This is the ECUs calculation of throttle opening, 0 to
100 percent. It can be used to troubleshoot problems
with the throttle linkage/TPS system, or SAE J-1939 or
SAE J-1587 link to electronic engines.
TPS CNTS 55 TPS CountsThis is the raw voltage signal as read
from the TPS. The ECU calculates the throttle percent
from this value, then voltage at closed throttle, and the
voltage at WOT. This value can be used to troubleshoot
problems with the throttle linkage/TPS system. It is not
applicable to vehicles that use the SAE J-1587 or J-
1939 link to electronic engines instead of a TPS. A
steady, low number of counts or zero counts will always
be displayed when the transmission is communicating
with an electronic engine on the serial communication
interface lines.
INPUT SPEED 705 RPM The same as engine speed when the engine is directly
connected to the transmission. This value may not be
reasonable if there is a problem anywhere in the speed
system (i.e., broken wire, runout on speed gear, or
ECU calibration with wrong number of teeth).

the converter lockup clutch is applied. It can be
compared to output speed to check gear ratios. This
value may not be reasonable if there is a problem
anywhere in the speed system (i.e., broken wire,
runout on speed gear, or ECU calibration with wrong
number of teeth).
OUTPUT SPEED 1 RPM Output SPD RPMOutput speed is used to determine
shift points. The service tool can be used to verify that
the transmission shifts when it is supposed to. It can
also be compared to turbine speed to check gear
ratios. This value may not be reasonable if there is a
problem anywhere in the speed system (i.e., broken
wire, runout on speed gear, or ECU calibration with
wrong number of teeth).
LOCKUP 0 RPM This is the ouput speed when the last shift into, or out
of lockup occurred.
RNG SHIFT 0 RPM Range ShiftThis is the output speed when the last
range shift occurred. A shift from one gear range to
another is a range shift.
NEXT UP SHFT 0 RPM This is the output shift at which the next upshift will
occur. Its value depends on throttle position and the
range attained.
NEXT DOWN SHFT 0 RPM This is the output speed at which the next downshift will
occur. Its value depends on throttle position and the
range attained.

OUTPUT SPEED 1 RPM Output SPD RPMOutput speed is used to determine
shift points. The service tool can be used to verify that
the transmission shifts when it is supposed to. It can
also be compared to turbine speed to check gear
ratios. This value may not be reasonable if there is a
problem anywhere in the speed system (i.e., broken
wire, runout on speed gear, or ECU calibration with
wrong number of teeth).
LOCKUP 0 RPM This is the ouput speed when the last shift into, or out
of lockup occurred.
RNG SHIFT 0 RPM Range ShiftThis is the output speed when the last
range shift occurred. A shift from one gear range to
another is a range shift.
NEXT UP SHFT 0 RPM This is the output shift at which the next upshift will
occur. Its value depends on throttle position and the
range attained.

Trigger/Snapshot
Trigger/Snapshot enables the Pro-Link

/MPC to record data from the vehicle


while it is being driven. Data can then be played back when you return to the shop.
You can use this feature to identify intermittent problems that would be difficult to
locate by any other method. Depending on the data update rate selected, the Pro-
Link

/MPC can record up to 30 minutes of data.


When using the Trigger/Snapshot option, the Pro-Link

/MPC continuously
records data. When the memory is full, the oldest data is dropped and new data
is added. You choose what will trigger data recording. The trigger is a mark in
the recording so you can find that exact spot later during playback. You choose
what to use as a trigger. Because driveability problems are often related to active
codes, you can have the Pro-Link

/MPC trigger when an active code is set. You


can choose a specific code, or have the trigger set if any code is stored while
Trigger/Snapshot is enabled.
You decide how much data will be stored before or after a trigger has been set. It
is sometimes useful to record data that was stored before a trigger was set,
looking for a trend that led up to setting the trigger. It can also be helpful to look at
data that was recorded after a trigger was set. You decide ahead of time how
much data will be recorded before and after the trigger point.
You can also review Snapshot data captured once the trigger has activated by se-
lecting a data list. For more information on how to review Snapshot data, refer to

Diagnostic Codes
When you press the key on the Diagnostic Codes selection, the Pro-
Link

/MPC displays the code number, along with a description of the code or
codes stored in the ECU.
The readout contains the name of the system or component that caused the code
to be set.
When viewing Diagnostic Codes in the normal Data List, the number on the left
is usually a more severe code than the code on the right side of the display. If both
memory locations have a code stored while in this function selection, the code on
the left will be displayed first. Also, if there are two codes stored in the ECU, the
arrows will appear on the bottom line of the code display screen.
NOTE:
iWhen certain operating conditions occur, a diagnostic code will be set in
one of two memory locations of the ECU. Both memory locations are dis-
played, and the code in the left position is usually more severe to
transmission operation. Consult the appropriate Allison Transmission trou-
bleshooting manual to determine system response for the various codes.
The following table provides a list of Allison CEC diagnostic codes and a descrip-
tion for each code:
ALLISON DIAG CODES
SPEED SENSOR
CODE 22
68 Pro-Link

/MPC Allison Transmissions Users Manual


Chapter 6 Using the Allison CEC Application
TABLE 1. Allison CEC Diagnostic Codes
Diagnostic Code Description
TPS Counts and % The throttle position sensor (TPS) monitors the
position of the fuel control lever on the engine. The
resulting voltage signal is converted to digital counts
by the ECU. It is possible for the readout to range from
244 counts at idle to nearly 0 counts at open throttle.
Idle counts greater than or equal to 233 or Wide Open
Throttle counts less than or equal to 14 counts will set
Fail Codes.
The throttle position count is converted by the ECU to
percentage of throttle applied. It is possible for the
readout to range from 0 percent (closed) to 100
percent (fully open).
Range SEL When the vehicle driver operates the shift selector in
the vehicle cab, the readout indicates the range
selected. Note that this is the range selected, not nec-
essarily the range the transmission actually attains.
The readouts include:
R - Reverse
F4 - 1st through 4th (Drive)
F3 - 1st through 3rd (Drive)
F2 - 1st through 2nd
F1 - 1st
R2 - Second reverse
N - Neutral
F6 - 1st through 6th (Drive)
F5 - 1st through 5th (Drive)
Also refer to Range ATT.
- Diagnostic Codes
Pro-Link

/MPC Allison Transmissions Users Manual 69


Range ATT In response to the drivers request for a particular
range, the ECU issues commands for the transmis-
sion to shift. Due to operating conditions, the range
actually attained may or may not match the range
selected. The readouts include:
R2 - Second Reverse
R - Reverse
N - Neutral
1C - 1st converter
1L - 1st lockup
2C - 2nd converter
2L - 2nd lockup
3C - 3rd converter
3L - 3rd lockup
4C - 4th converter
5C - 5th converter
5L - 5th lockup
6C - 6th converter
6L - 6th lockup
Note: In the diagnostic mode, the ECU data stream
update rate is approximately 1.25 seconds. If the
transmission is shifting rapidly, it is possible that the
transmission may pass through several attained
ranges more quickly than the readout can display
them. This is not a fault of either the ECU or the Pro-
Link

9000. If a faster update of range attained infor-


mation is required, go to the Range Selected/Range
Attained section of this manual.
Range Shift RPM The readout displays the transmission output shaft
speed (rpm) when the transmission made its last
range upshift or downshift. Converter lockups are
excluded. Due to the slow update rate of the ECU, be
careful to match the displayed value with the proper
shift. If you are not certain, use the transmission
HOLD feature to inhibit unwanted shifts.
TABLE 1. Allison CEC Diagnostic Codes
Diagnostic Code Description
70 Pro-Link

/MPC Allison Transmissions Users Manual


Chapter 6 Using the Allison CEC Application
Lockup RPM The readout indicates the transmission output shaft
speed (rpm) when the last converter lock-up (engage
or disengage) occurred. When the converter is locked
up (i.e., engaged) it provides a direct mechanical link
from the engine through the converter. When the con-
verter is not locked (i.e., disengaged) the converter
pump and turbine are connected by hydraulic fluid
only. Lockup rpm is generally different at closed and
open throttle positions.
Output RPM A speed sensor is located on the rear cover of the
transmission to detect output shaft rpm. The readout
shows actual transmission output shaft speed in revo-
lutions per minute; the readout lower limit is 60 rpm.
Oil Temp A temperature sensor is located in the transmission
sump on MT(B) 600; V, HT(B); and C(L) (B)T 700
transmissions. It is located in the lock-up valve body
assembly on C(L) (B)T 5/6/9000 and DP8000 trans-
missions. High oil temperature may result from over
filling or cooling system problems. Low oil temperature
may result from cold weather conditions.
The readout provides both Fahrenheit (-60F to
350F) and Celsius (-51C to 177C).
FWD Press SW (MTB600 CLBT,V,HT700 only)
A pressure switch in the transmission detects if the
transmission has attained a forward range. The
readout is ON when there is forward pressure, and it is
OFF when there is no forward pressure. Because the
ECU needs input from both forward and reverse
switches to determine neutral range, refer to REV
PRESS SW, next in this table. Neutral is indicated
when both readings are OFF.
REV Press SW (MTB600 CLBT,V,HT700 only)
A pressure switch in the transmission detects if the
transmission has attained a reverse range. The
readout is ON when there is reverse pressure, and it is
OFF when there is no reverse pressure. Because the
ECU needs input from both forward and reverse
switches to determine neutral range, refer to FWD
SW, earlier in this table. Neutral is indicated when both
readings are OFF.
TABLE 1. Allison CEC Diagnostic Codes
Diagnostic Code Description

Pro-Link

/MPC Allison Transmissions Users Manual 71


REV Warn Signal As a reverse warning signal when the transmission
has been placed in reverse range, the readout indi-
cates ON. When the transmission is shifted from
reverse range, the readout is OFF.
Oil Lube/SLS SW (MTB600 CLBT,V,HT700 only)
There are three types of oil condition indicators (pres-
sure, level, or fluidic) used in the various Allison
electronically controlled transmissions. Consult the
appropriate Allison Transmission service publications
for your transmission model to determine which of the
three is used in a specific transmission.
A lubrication pressure switch is used to detect low
lubrication pressure. The readout is ON when the
lubrication pressure reaches 6 to 12 PSI. The readout
is OFF when lubrication pressure is below 6 to 12 PSI.
Oil level and fluidic sensor systems are used to detect
low oil level conditions. The readout is OFF when a
low oil level condition is detected. The readout is ON
when the oil level is above the low oil level detection
point.
Consult the proper Allison Transmission service publi-
cation to determine the correct operating oil level for
each transmission model.
Retard Request On most vehicles, an instrument panel-mounted
control is used to request operation of the retarder.
The readout indicates ON when the retarder is
requested and OFF when the retarder is not
requested. Refer to RETARD COMMAND, next in this
table, for further information.
Retard Command When the retard control is operated (see RETARD
REQUEST, earlier in this table), the ECU gives a
command to operate the retarder. The readout indi-
cates YES when the retard command is given and NO
when the command is not given.
Special Input This readout indicates the position of a special input
switch used for certain options, ON or OFF.
Range
Commanded
This is the output signal to indicate that a specific gear
range has been attained. The readout is YES or NO.

Appendix C MID Fault Code Descriptions
MIDs are the microprocessors used in heavy duty vehicle applications. These are
the black boxes that transmit messages on the Serial Data Link (SDL) and
control vehicle systems such as the engine, transmission, and brakes. The MID
number and description are assigned by the joint SAE/TMC Committee.
The J1922 MIDs (69 through 86) are used on a dedicated communication link for
interactive control between electronic engine, transmission, ABS/Traction Control,
and retarder systems. The J1587 MIDs (128 through 186) are used by the micro-
processors to communicate messages and data on a common link.
