Transmission Control Unit Calibration

Transmission Control Unit Calibration

NOTE:
Calibration procedure should take approximately ten minutes to complete when machine is warmed up.
The machine needs to have a hydraulic oil temperature of 50F or greater before automatic calibration will
begin.
This procedure calibrates the transmission controller with the transmission clutches. Recalibrate whenever a major repair on
transmission is required, replacement of solenoids, replacement of transmission controller or after 1000 hours of operation.
1.

Warm machine up to operating temperature. See Transmission Warm-Up Procedure . (Group 9020-25.)

T204401A-UN: Transmission Control Unit Calibration Connectors

LEGEND:
1 - TCU Transmission Connector (X38)
2 - TCU Run Mode Connector (X39)
3 - TCU Calibration Mode Connector (X37)
Shut machine off. Remove the transmission control unit run mode connector (2) and install the transmission control
unit calibrate mode connector (3) located behind right side rear panel in the cab.
3.

The display will give instructions and show the progress of the transmission calibration. The screen and transmission
calibration will proceed to the next step when the criteria is met for the current step. If a diagnostic trouble code is
generated during calibration, the procedure will be terminated. All diagnostic trouble codes must be corrected before
attempting to run calibration again. Calibration procedure will have to be restarted from the beginning.

T203467-19: Move Shifter to Forward Gear

Move the shift handle to a forward gear position. The park brake indicator light will flash, indicating that the park brake
is still engaged.

T203466-19: Transmission Warm-Up Screen

Transmission warm-up screen. The transmission must be above 50F to start calibration, but between 102F and 140
F to run calibration. If transmission temperature is between 50F and 102F, the transmission control unit will operate
the transmission to warm up the oil.
NOTE:
If transmission temperature is low or outside ambient temperature is low, the transmission may
take several minutes to warm up.

T203468-19: Calibration Failed

Once into clutch calibration and a transmission calibration diagnostic trouble code occurs, calibration will be
terminated. Exit calibration and correct diagnostic trouble code. See Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Diagnostic
Trouble Codes s. (Group 9015-20.)
