DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Use the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) table below for the Transmission Control Switch (TCS) module fault diagnosis.

NOTE: 'X' = DO NOT REPLACE TCS module - Perform the diagnostics specified in SDD/TOPIx Workshop Manual section 100-00 Diagnostics.
NOTE: 'Y' = Replace the TCS module.
NOTE: '0' = Step 1: Perform diagnostics specified in SDD/TOPIx Workshop Manual section 100-00 Diagnostics. Step 2: clear all DTCs; cycle the ignition; engage Drive (D); return to the Park (P) position; test with SDD. Step 3: If Steps 1 and 2 do not resolve issue, replace TCS module.

CAUTION: Ensure all ignition 'ON'/ignition 'OFF' requests are carried out; failure to perform these steps may cause damage to control modules in the vehicle.
CAUTION: A Jaguar Land Rover-approved Midtronics Vehicle Power Supply must be connected to the vehicle battery during IDS/SDD diagnosis/module programming.
  1. Connect a Jaguar Land Rover-approved power supply to the vehicle.
  2. Turn the ignition 'ON' (engine not running).
  3. Connect the Integrated Diagnostics System (IDS) to the vehicle and begin a new Symptom Driven Diagnostics (SDD) session.
  4. Follow the on-screen prompts, allowing SDD to read the VIN and identify the vehicle.
  5. From the Session Type selection screen, select 'Measurement Applications'.
  6. Select the 'Recommendations' tab.
  7. From the Recommendations tab run 'Complete data logger'.
  8. Select/expand the '206-00 Brake system' tab.

  14. Press the brake pedal.
    • The first graph to change must be the brake light switch (confirm by asking someone to watch brake lights come on). The brake pressure applied, shown in the top bar chart, should be between 1 and 7 BAR.
      G08777708
  15. The next graph to change should be the cruise cancel switch.
    • The brake pressure applied, shown in the top bar chart, should be between 4.5 and 14 BAR.
      G08777709
  16. Last graph to move should be brake pressure.
    • This reading will vary depending on whether the engine is running and foot pressure applied.
      G08777710
  17. Switch the data logger off before disconnecting the SDD from the vehicle.
    • If the results show that the brake pedal switch is working as expected do not replace the switch. It will be necessary to investigate the cause of the issue. Contact the Technical HelpLine for additional support if necessary.
    • If the results show that the brake switch is not working correctly, remove the brake pedal switch and refit.
    • Run the above tests again.
    • If the results still show the brake switch is not working correctly the switch should be replaced.
  18. Exit the current session.
  19. Disconnect the IDS and the battery conditioner/power supply from the vehicle.
