Transmission Control Module Malfunction Recognition

The control module is equipped with a DTC memory so that in the event of an electronic or electrical component failure or an open circuit, the malfunction can be determined quickly. Malfunction are recognized through electrical signals and stored in the DTC memory.

The control module recognizes malfunctions during vehicle operation and stores them in a DTC memory. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) TABLE  .

After analyzing the information the control module distinguishes between sporadic malfunctions and malfunctions present at this moment (static) and stores these.

If the malfunction is not present for a predetermined time or when driving over a longer distance, it is no longer recognized and becomes a sporadic malfunction.
