Theory of Operation


The Transmission Control Module (TCM) stores in its EEPROM vehicle information data transmitted over the CAN Bus from the FCM/TIPM. If the stored information in the TCM does not match the information obtained over the CAN Bus, the DTC will set.



Possible Causes
 
USED CONTROLLER INSTALLED WITH WRONG CONFIGURATION
 
FCM/TIPM NOT PROPERLY PROGRAMED OR WAS REPLACED AND NOT PROGRAMED
 
NEW TCM INSTALLED
 
TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE
 


Always perform the CVT Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - CVT - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
