Automatic Transmission - Transmission Description - Overview
Description and Operation
OVERVIEW
The AW F21 automatic transmission is a 6 speed, electronically controlled unit manufactured by Aisin AW in Japan. The
transmission represents the latest in automatic transmission technology for a transverse, AW D (all-wheel drive) unit. The
transmission features lock-up slip control, 'CommandShift™' functions and automatic and driver selectable modes to give
the optimum on and off road performance.
The transmission is controlled by a TCM (transmission control module) which contains software to provide operation as a
semi-automatic 'CommandShift™' transmission and a Gear Shift Module (GSM). The GSM is a rotary actuator which converts
driver selections for P, R, N, D and S on the rotary TCS (transmission control switch) into rotary movement of the
transmission selector shaft allowing the system to operate as a 'shift by wire' system, with no mechanical link to the
transmission for drive selections.
The TCM allows the transmission to be operated as a conventional automatic unit by selecting P, R, N, D, S on the TCS.
Rotation of the TCS to the 'S' position puts the transmission into electronic 'Sport' mode. Operation of the steering wheel
mounted + or – paddle switches puts the transmission into electronic manual 'CommandShift™' mode.
Refer to: External Controls (307-05 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle External Controls - Vehicles With: AW F21 6-Speed
Automatic Transmission, Description and Operation).
The transmission system uses an auxiliary battery module which powers a failsafe system to allow the engagement of
'Park' in the event of vehicle power failure.

System Operation
OPERATION
Operation of the transmission is controlled by the TCM (transmission control module), which electrically activates various
solenoids to control the transmission gear selection. The sequence of solenoid activation is based on programmed
information in the TCM memory and physical transmission operating conditions such as vehicle speed, throttle position,
engine load and rotary TCS (transmission control switch) position.
Engine torque is transferred, via operation of single or combinations of clutches to the planetary gear trains. The gear
trains are controlled by reactionary inputs from brake clutches to produce the 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear.
The shift elements (clutches and brakes) are actuated hydraulically. Fluid pressure is applied to the required clutch and/or
brake, pressing the plates together and allowing drive to be transmitted through the plates. The purpose of the shift
elements is to perform power-on shifts with no interruption to traction and smooth transition between gear ratios.
Component Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission comprises the main casing which houses all of the transmission components. The torque converter is
located in a separate converter housing.

The main casing retains the fluid at the bottom. A combined drain/level plug is located in the bottom of the casing. The oil
level is checked by removal of the inner level plug, with the engine running and the transmission fluid at a temperature of
between 50 to 60°C (122 to 140°F). The level is correct when the oil flow becomes a drip from the level plug hole.
The transmission has a fluid cooler which is located on the LH (left-hand) end of the radiator. The cooler is connected to
the transmission converter housing by 2 pipes. The fluid cooler is connected into the engine cooling system and cools the
transmission fluid by heat transfer through the cooler to the engine coolant. In hot climate markets an additional fluid
cooler is located in front of the radiator.

Item Description
1 Torque converter housing
2 Lock-up clutch
3 Turbine
4 Impeller
5 Stator
6 Fluid pump
7 Input shaft
The torque converter is the coupling element between the engine and the transmission and is located in the transmission
housing, on the engine side of the transmission. The driven power from the engine crankshaft is transmitted hydraulically
and mechanically through the torque converter to the transmission. The torque converter is connected to the engine by a
drive plate.
The torque converter comprises an impeller, a stator and a turbine. The torque converter is a sealed unit with all
components located between the converter housing cover and the impeller. The two components are welded together to
form a sealed, fluid filled housing. W ith the impeller welded to the converter housing cover, the impeller is therefore driven
at engine crankshaft speed.
The torque converter contains a hydraulically operated lock-up clutch which is controlled by the TCM via a solenoid in the
valve block which actuates spool valves to control the hydraulic pressure applied to the clutch. This allows the TCM to
provide 3 modes of converter operation; unlocked, partially locked and fully locked.
VALVE BLOCK
The valve block is located in a vertical position at the front of the transmission main casing, behind a sealed cover. The
valve block contains a number of solenoids, dampers and spool valves to control the transmission operation. The solenoids
are controlled by the TCM to provide gear changes and smooth transition between ratio changes.

Shift Control Solenoids - SLC1, SLC2, SLC3, SLB1
The shift control solenoids (SLC1, SLC2, SLC3 and SLB1) are installed on the front valve body. The solenoids respond to
inputs from the TCM and control the hydraulic pressure applied to the clutches (C1, C2 and C3) and to the brake B1 to
provide smooth shifting. The TCM uses a single or a combination of these solenoids to provide shifts from 1st to 6th gear.
If a solenoid fails, the TCM will remove the current to the shift control solenoids and the transmission will use limp home
mode, to prevent damage to the transmission.
The line pressure control solenoid (SLT) is installed on the front valve body. The solenoid is controlled in a linear manner
by the TCM which uses throttle opening degree signals and engine torque information from the ECM (engine control
module) to determine the solenoid operation. The solenoid controls the line pressure applied to the clutches and brakes to
provide smooth shifting.
If the solenoid fails, the TCM will remove the current supplied to the solenoid. Maximum line pressure will be applied to
the clutches and brakes unless the failure is due to the solenoid valve sticking, which may result in low line pressure.
The lock-up control solenoid is installed on the front valve body. The solenoid is controlled in a linear manner by the TCM
which uses engine speed, throttle opening degree signals and transmission speed sensor signals to determine the
solenoid operation. The solenoid controls the amount of lock-up or slip required for the torque converter lock-up clutch.
If the solenoid fails, the TCM removes the current supplied to the solenoid which results in no torque converter lock-up
being applied.
The 3-way solenoid (S1) is located on the center valve body and solenoid (S2) is located on the front valve body. The
solenoids are on/off solenoids controlled by the TCM. A combination of the 2 solenoids is used to operate either the 1st
gear engine braking or enable gear shifts.
If a solenoid fails, the TCM will remove the current supplied to both solenoids.
Speed Sensors

Item Description
1 Speed Sensor (SP) - Output shaft speed
2 Counter drive gear
3 C2 clutch drum
4 Speed sensor (NIN)
Two speed sensors (NIN and SP) are used in the transmission and are located within the transmission housing. Speed
sensor (SP) is located adjacent to the counter drive gear and reads from the gear teeth to provide an output shaft speed
signal. Speed sensor (NIN) is located adjacent to the clutch C" drum and reads off teeth on the outer circumference of the
drum to provide an input shaft speed. Both speed signals are received by the TCM which uses the 2 signals to calculate
engine torque output, shift timing and torque converter lock-up.
The fluid temperature sensor is integrated into the internal wiring harness within the transmission. It detects the fluid
temperature in the hydraulic pressure control circuit and transmits a signal corresponding to the temperature to the TCM.
The TCM monitors the temperature and provides smooth gear shifts across a wide range of temperatures.

There are three drive clutches and two brake clutches (B2 is a multiplate brake clutch & B1 is a double wrap brake band)
used in the AW F21 transmission. Each clutch comprises one or more friction plates dependent on the output controlled. A
typical clutch consists of a number of steel outer plates and inner plates with friction material bonded to each face.
When clutch application is required, main pressure from the fluid pump is applied to the piston chamber from the supply
port. This main pressure overcomes the low pressure fluid present in the dynamic pressure equalization chamber. The
piston moves, against the pressure applied by the diaphragm spring, and compresses the clutch plate assembly. When the
main pressure falls, the diaphragm spring pushes the piston away from the clutch plate assembly, disengaging the clutch.

When the clutch is rotated in a clockwise direction, the rollers become trapped between the inner race and the inclined
cam faces of the clutch body, providing positive (locked) rotation of the inner race, locking the counter-clockwise rotation
of the rear planetary carrier. W hen the clutch is rotated in a clockwise direction, the rollers are moved away from the

Item Description
1 TCM
2 Neutral 'N' position
3 Park 'P' position
4 Position sensor/manual shaft
5 Electrical connector
The TCM is located on the top of the transmission casing and is connected on the high speed CAN (controller area network)
bus to send and receive information to and from other system modules.
The TCM outputs signals to operate the transmission solenoid valves to control the hydraulic operation of the
transmission.
p p j p p
The ECM supplies the engine management data on the high speed CAN bus system. The TCM requires engine data to
efficiently control the transmission operation, using for example; crankshaft torque, engine speed, accelerator pedal angle,
engine temperature etc.
The TCM processes signals from the transmission speed and temperature sensors, ECM and other vehicle systems. From
the received signal inputs and pre-programmed data, the TCM calculates the correct gear, torque converter clutch setting
and optimum pressure settings for gear shift and lock-up clutch control.
The steering angle sensor and the ABS (anti-lock brake system) module also supply data to the TCM on the high speed
CAN bus system. The TCM uses data from these systems to suspend gear changes when the vehicle is cornering and/or the
ABS module is controlling braking or traction control.
The TCM is positioned over the transmission selector shaft which protrudes through an oil seal on the top face of the main
transmission casing. The shaft locates in a rotary position sensor and turns the sensor in the appropriate direction. The
Gear Shift Module (GSM), located above the TCM, rotates the shaft when a selection is made by the driver using the rotary
TCS. The rotary position sensor is a Hall effect sensor which outputs a specified voltage relating to the selected TCS
position.
The transmission is controlled by a 'shift by wire' system. The TCS is connected to the TCM and the GSM on the high speed
CAN bus. Driver selections made on the TCS are passed via CAN messages to the GSM and the TCM. The GSM contains a
rotary actuator which responds to driver selections and rotates the selector shaft in the appropriate direction.
If the TCM, GSM or transmission requires replacement, a setting procedure must be performed using a Land Rover approved
diagnostic system to allow the TCM to learn the neutral position of the transmission. The TCM uses the neutral position as
a reference point for each of the gear positions P, R, N, and D.

The GSM is mounted on a bracket on the top of the transmission, above the TCM. The GSM Is secured to the bracket with
four bolts.
The GSM contains an integrated actuator which automatically controls the transmission gear selection in response to the
'gear selection' signal transmitted from the TCS. The GSM selects the requested gear based on all external parameter
conditions being correct. The actuator drives a small connecting shaft which is located on top of the transmission selector
shaft (above the TCM).
The GSM transmits a signal to inform the driver of the selected gear, illuminating the TCSLED (light emitting diode)

'PRNDS' and the instrument cluster displays. The gear position display in the instrument cluster has two modes; one mode
displays P, R, N, D or S and the second mode displays the manual gear 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 when using the Land Rover
CommandShift™ feature. The GSM monitors the TCS position, TCM engaged gear, lock status and the GSM actuator position
to control the displays.
The GSM has an emergency park engagement feature to place the transmission into 'Park' in the event of a system fault.
This function provides an external power input from the auxiliary battery module to the GSM, operating a motor which in
turn rotates a cam which releases a spring loaded mechanism, placing the transmission into 'Park'.
The GSM controls the park lock function via CAN messages to the TCS.
The park lock control strategy is processed by the GSM. Park lock is activated when the TCS is in Park unless the brake
pedal is pressed and the engine is running.
Alternatively if the engine is running and the TCS is placed in Park while the vehicle speed is too high, the TCS remains
unlocked. When the speed decreases below a set threshold or the engine is switched off, the TCS Park lock function is
activated.
A brake pedal status signal is received by the GSM on the CAN bus from the ECM. If the ECM signal is not available the
ABS module provides back up information.
The GSM activates the Park lock when in Neutral unless the brake pedal is pressed. The lock request is ignored if the
vehicle speed is greater than 6mph (10kph). When Neutral is selected, the lock is not activated for 2 seconds. This
function allows the driver to move the TCS from R to D without the possibility of the Park lock being activated.
Manufacturing Mode
A new GSM is delivered in manufacturing mode. The module will function normally except Park selection is prevented.
cardiagn.com
In service, when replacing the GSM, the new module is supplied with manufacturing mode activated. The new module is
programmed to the vehicle using a Land Rover Approved diagnostic system. Manufacturing mode is de-activated after the
programming application learn process is complete.

primary line of communication via the LIN (local interconnect network) bus. This function provides the auxiliary battery
module with information to determine the selected gear of the vehicle transmission.
The auxiliary battery module activates the emergency park engagement feature in the event that the GSM is unable to
select Park.
The emergency park engagement function activates under the following conditions:
The auxiliary battery module monitors the following primary input signals to determine if emergency park engagement
should be triggered:

The input signals are transmitted on the high speed CAN network to the TCM which processes and sends the data to the
auxiliary battery module via the LIN bus. If a fault exists on the LIN bus the auxiliary battery module uses the vehicle
battery voltage as a trigger for emergency park engagement activation.
If the vehicle battery voltage drops below 10.5V, and the LIN communication is lost or corrupt, the auxiliary battery module
cardiagn.com
activates the emergency park engagement function.
Diagnostics
GSM failure will primarily result in the system inability to perform gear shifts between the PRND positions. It will not be
possible to complete the position learning process correctly. This will be reflected to the driver by either no LED activity or
flashing of the PRND illumination position depending on the position in which the system has failed. The TCS may be
locked to prevent the driver from attempting further shifts in the failure condition.
TCS failure will result in no LED activity of the PRND illumination position, refusal of the TCS to rise, or the TCS rising
when the conditions are not correct. The TCS may become locked in any position.
Auxiliary battery module failure can result in a loss of LIN communication with the TCM and automatic selection of the
emergency park engagement system.
All failure modes, which result in a loss of functionality, will cause a "Gearbox Fault" warning being displayed in the
instrument cluster.
There is no mechanical provision to remove the vehicle from Park in the event of a system fault. However, a service mode
is available which allows the TCS to rise without the engine running in order to permit Neutral selection in fault conditions.
Hold the '+' gear shift paddle and depress the brake pedal continually for 10 seconds after the ignition has been
switched on
The system will remain in service mode until the ignition is switched off or the engine is started
NOTE: If there is a system power failure and the service mode function cannot be activated the only option available
to remove the vehicle from Park is to remove the GSM unit from the vehicle. Once the GSM is removed the selector shaft
can be manually rotated to the Neutral position. Refer to the relevant service repair procedure for access details.
CAUTION: Before the vehicle is driven and returned to the customer, the GSM gear position learning process must be
completed using a Land Rover Approved diagnostic system. This MUST be completed any time the GSM is removed or
replaced to ensure that position selection accuracy is maintained. Premature wear to the transmission or failure to select
Park may result if the learning process is not performed.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
NOTE: The following illustration shows the display when the transmission is in CommandShift™ mode. PRNDS is
displayed during normal transmission operation.
p p j p p
cardiagn.com
The instrument cluster is connected to the TCM via the high speed CAN. Transmission status is transmitted by the TCM and
displayed to the driver in the instrument cluster.
Refer to: Instrument Cluster (413-01 Instrument Cluster, Description and Operation).
The MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) is located in the upper LH corner of the instrument cluster, within the tachometer.
Transmission related faults which may affect the vehicle emissions output will illuminate the MIL.
TheMIL is illuminated by the ECM on receipt of a relevant fault message from the TCM on the CAN. The nature of the fault
can be diagnosed using a Land Rover approved diagnostic system which reads fault codes stored in the memory.
The transmission status display is located in the central LCD (liquid crystal display) message display in the instrument
cluster. The display shows the selected P R N D S position and in the case of manual 'CommandShift™' mode, the selected
gear.
DRIVING MODES
A number of different driving modes are available. Some can be selected by the driver and some are automatically initiated
by the TCM to adapt to different driving conditions.
Normal
Sports
Manual 'CommandShift™'
Cooling
Hill Descent Control (HDC)
Cruise
Limp home
Coast
Fast off recognition
Uphill and Trailer
Downhill
Wide Throttle
Terrain Response
Reverse lock-out

Road Gradient Recognition
Driver Type Recognition
Normal
Normal mode is automatically selected by the TCM when the ignition is switched on. In this mode all automatic and
adaptive modes are active. Normal mode uses gear shift and lock-up maps which provide the optimum of fuel consumption,
p p j p p
If the transmission is operated in sport mode or 'CommandShift™' mode and the TCS is moved back to the drive 'D'
position, then normal mode operation is resumed.
Sports
Sports mode provides enhanced acceleration and responsiveness by the use of sports shift maps. This mode allows the
transmission to down shift more readily and hold gears for longer at higher engine speeds.
Manual 'CommandShift™'
Manual 'CommandShift' mode allows the transmission to operate as a semi-automatic transmission. The driver can change
up and down the six forward gears with the freedom of a manual transmission provided the requested gear is within the
allowed engine and vehicle speed range.
Shift maps are provided to protect the engine at high speeds. The TCM will automatically change up to a higher gear ratio
to prevent engine overspeed and change down to a lower gear ratio to avoid engine laboring and stalling.
When kick-down is requested the TCM shifts down to the lowest available gear. When the vehicle is stationary, the driver
can select 1st or 2nd to start off.
Upshifts (+) are optimized for performance via the short shift function, resulting in firmer feeling shifts than in automatic
mode. Downshift requests (-) utilize a throttle 'blip' during the shift, resulting in an improved shift feel.
With the TCS in the 'D' position, manual mode can be directly accessed by the single action of operating one of the
steering wheel paddle switches. This allows immediate, but temporary use of the shift paddles when the TCS is in 'D'. If
continued use of manual mode is required, the TCS must be moved to the Sport 'S' position to enter permanent manual
mode in the currently selected gear.
cardiagn.com
If the TCS remains in the 'D' position, temporary manual mode will be held while the driver is accelerating, decelerating,
cornering or continuing to request shifts using the paddle switches. The transmission will revert back to automatic
operation after a short period of driving at a steady speed. Alternatively, the upshift (+) paddle can be held for
approximately 2 seconds to return to automatic mode in TCS position 'D'.
Select the 'S' position on the TCS, permanent manual mode is then accessed by the operation of the steering paddle
switches. The instrument cluster message center will show the currently selected gear. To exit from manual mode, pull and
hold the upshift (+) paddle switch for approximately 2 seconds to return to automatic operation in Sport (S) mode.
Alternatively, rotate the TCS to the 'D' position; the transmission will revert to 'D' automatic mode.
Manual Operation
Upshifts are performed using a brief operation of the upshift (+) paddle switch. Downshifts are performed using the
downshift (-) paddle switch. The message center will display the selected gear.
The transmission will inhibit upshifts and downshifts if the requested shift would result in an engine speed outside the
engine's operating range.
Kick-Down: - Operation of kick-down mode will override the currently selected gear. The lowest available gear will be
selected for maximum acceleration and will be highlighted in the message center. Subsequent manual shifts may then be
selected as usual.
Positive Torque: - Provides throttle 'blips' on downshifts, improving transmission shift quality and response.
Shift Assist: - The transmission will automatically upshift at the engine speed redline in CommandShift mode, as if
operated manually. The transmission will automatically downshift, when the engine speed falls below the range for the
currently selected gear. When the vehicle approaches, or comes to rest, second gear is automatically selected. Subsequent
starts from standstill will occur in second gear, unless accelerator pedal demand is high or a downshift is manually
selected, in which case first gear will be selected. In all cases the message center will show the currently selected gear.
During sustained braking, if a downshift is selected at a speed which would result in an engine speed outside the engine's
operating range, the downshift will be delayed until the vehicle speed has reduced sufficiently for the gear selection to be
made, without causing the engine speed to exceed its normal operating range.
Cooling
Cooling mode is activated when the TCM detects excessively high transmission fluid or engine coolant temperatures. When
this mode is active, torque converter lock-up is activated earlier to minimize a further rise in fluid and/or engine coolant
temperature and assist fluid cooling.
The HDC mode assists the ABS module in controlling the downhill speed of the vehicle. W hen HDC is active, the TCM
selects the most appropriate gear for the descent to maximize engine braking.
Maximum engine braking is applied using a shift map which initiates later upshifts and early downshifts.
Cruise
When speed control is activated, the TCM receives a speed control active message on the high speed CAN bus. The TCM
p p j p p
Cruise mode is active when speed control is selected on and the transmission is in drive 'D', Sport 'S', HDC or a Terrain
Response Grass/gravel/snow program. Unique cruise maps override the current mode to provide a smooth driving feel and
mode reselection.
Limp home
If a transmission fault is detected by the TCM, the TCM adopts a limp home strategy and a message 'TRANSMISSION
FAULT LIMITED GEARS AVAILABLE' is displayed in the message center. If the fault has an effect on engine emissions, the
MIL in the instrument cluster will also be illuminated.
In limp home mode, P, R and N functions operate normally (if the fault allows these selections) and the TCM locks the
transmission in 3rd gear to allow the driver to take the vehicle to a Land Rover dealer or approved repairer. Torque
converter lock-up is disabled and reverse-lock-out will not function.
If the vehicle is stopped and subsequently restarted in the limp home mode condition, the TCM operates normally until the
fault which caused the condition is detected again.
Coast
Coast mode provides earlier downshifts during coasting dependant on output shaft deceleration rate to improve driveability
and refinement by avoiding negative to positive driveline torque reversal transmissions during the downshifts.
Fast off recognition is activated when the TCM detects that the driver has released the accelerator pedal quickly. This is
detected by the TCM monitoring for a high level of negative pedal angle from ECM signals on the high speed CAN bus. If
this condition is detected, the TCM holds the current gear ratio to allow the driver to complete the manoeuvre without the
need for a downshift. The mode can remain active for a predetermined length of time or if the driving style remains
passive.
cardiagn.com
Fast off recognition mode assists vehicle stability and is used in conjunction a lateral acceleration input during cornering to
maintain the current gear until the corner is negotiated.
Uphill and trailer mode can be active when the transmission is operating in normal, sport or Terrain Response modes.
When the vehicle is pulling a trailer or driving up an incline, the TCM detects the increased resistance by monitoring engine
torque and speed signals received from the ECM on the high speed CAN bus and also transmission output shaft speed
sensor signals. Uphill and trailer mode will provide downshifts to prevent a drop in transmission torque output and
maintain driving force.
Downhill
Downhill mode can be active when the transmission is operating in normal, sport or Terrain Response modes. W hen the
vehicle is descending an incline, the TCM detects a reduction in resistance by monitoring engine torque and speed signals
received from the ECM on the high speed CAN bus and also transmission output shaft speed sensor signals. Downhill mode
assists engine braking by selecting an appropriate gear reducing the load required on the brakes.
Wide Throttle
Wide open throttle mode operates for part throttle upshifts and kick-down upshifts. It provides consistent wide open
throttle upshift performance under all driving conditions. The full engine speed range is used in all driving modes; normal,
sport, hill modes and CommandShift™. Compensation is used for delays (hydraulic and electronic) in gear change request
to gear change start to provide smooth changes and correct shift point correction.
Terrain Response
The Terrain Response system has a unique set of shift maps for each of the Terrain Response programs. These programs
override existing modes; for example when HDC is active and the 'Sand', 'Mud and Ruts' or 'Grass/Gravel/Snow' programs
are selected, a specific Terrain Response map is used, not the HDC mode shift map detailed previously.
Reverse Lock-Out
If the TCS is moved from N to R and the vehicle is travelling forwards, reverse selection is prevented if the vehicle speed is
5 km/h (3 mph) or more. W hen reverse lock-out is activated, the clutch (C3) is released without energizing solenoid
(SLC3), preventing the transmission from selecting reverse gear.
The same strategy is applied if the vehicle is moving backwards and D or S are selected on the TCS, the selection will be
prevented if the vehicle speed is 5 km/h (3 mph) or more.
Kick-Down
When D is selected and the accelerator pedal is fully depressed, the transmission will down-shift to the lowest appropriate
gear. Once the accelerator pedal is returned to a normal driving position, the transmission will upshift to the highest
appropriate gear. Kick-down will vary according to road speed, current gear selection and accelerator pedal movement.
Under braking, the transmission will vary the downshift point in proportion to braking effort and road gradient. This feature
works in conjunction with the positive torque function, resulting in a smoother down-shift. If Sport mode S is selected,
driver type recognition will vary the activation of this feature according to driving style.
p p j p p
Corner Recognition
Corner recognition inhibits up-shifts during cornering to provided improved vehicle balance. If Sport mode S is selected,
driver type recognition will vary the activation of this feature according to driving style.
When the vehicle is driven on an uphill gradient, the transmission adapts the shift pattern to make better use of the
engine power.
When the vehicle is driven on a long downhill gradient, the transmission may automatically select a lower gear to increase
engine braking. Selecting Sport mode S will increase the tendency of the transmission to select a lower gear in these
conditions, further increasing engine braking.
It is also possible to select a lower gear to increase engine braking using the gear shift - paddle switch.
In Sport mode S, the transmission monitors driving style and in combination with other vehicle systems, varies the shift
schedule, fast off, corner recognition and shift adapt under braking functions according to the driving style.
When a fault is detected, a high speed CAN message is sent from the TCM and is received by the instrument cluster. The
instrument cluster illuminates the MIL (if required) and displays an applicable message in the message center.
Refer to: Information and Message Center (413-08 Information and Message Center, Description and Operation).
cardiagn.com
Some transmission faults may not illuminate the MIL or display a fault message, but the driver may notice a reduction in
shift quality.
If the messages are not received by the ECM, the TCM will implement a back-up strategy to protect the transmission from
damage and allow the vehicle to be driven.
In the event of an engine speed or torque signal failure, the transmission will adopt the electrical limp home mode with
the transmission operating in a fixed gear.
WARNING: Ensure that the remote handset remains in the vehicle whilst the vehicle is being towed. Removing the
remote handset will engage the steering lock, which will prevent the vehicle from steering correctly.
If the engine cannot be run whilst the vehicle is being towed, there will be no power assistance for the steering or brakes.
This will result in greater effort being required to steer or slow the vehicle, and greatly increased stopping distances.
CAUTION: The vehicle should only be towed with four wheels on the ground. Towing with two wheels on the ground
will result in serious damage to the transmission.
The vehicle should only be towed for a maximum of 80 km (50 miles), at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Towing
for a greater distance, or at a higher speed may result in serious damage to the transmission.
Secure the towing attachment from the recovery vehicle to the front towing eye.
Ensure the remote handset is in the vehicle and switch on the ignition by pressing the start/stop button once.
NOTE: Leaving the ignition switched on for extended periods will cause the battery to drain.
Apply the foot brake, and move the TCS to the neutral 'N' position. With the footbrake still applied, release the park brake.
If electrical power to the TCS is not available, the emergency park release procedure can be used.
The vehicle can be towed a maximum of 80 km (50 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
Park the vehicle on firm, level ground. Apply the park brake and move the TCS to the park 'P' position.

Automatic Transmission - Diagnostics
Diagnosis and Testing
Principles of Operation
For a detailed description of the Automatic transmission/transaxle, refer to the relevant section of the workshop manual.
REFER to: Transmission Description (307-01 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle - Vehicles With: AWF21 6-Speed Automatic
Transmission, Description and Operation) /
Transmission Description (307-01 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle - Vehicles W ith: AWF21 6-Speed Automatic
Transmission, Description and Operation) /
Transmission Description (307-01 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle - Vehicles W ith: AWF21 6-Speed Automatic
Transmission, Description and Operation).
CAUTION: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level is low as internal failure can result.
NOTE: The transmission fluid temperature must be between 50°C (122°F) and 60°C (140°F) whilst checking level.
Should the temperature rise above this figure, abort the check and allow the transmission fluid to cool.
This vehicle is not equipped with a fluid level indicator. An incorrect level may affect the transmission operation and could
result in transmission damage. To correctly check and add fluid to the transmission. For fluid level checks refer to the
relevant section of the workshop manual.
cardiagn.com
Fluid Condition Check
Use the following procedure to check the fluid condition, which is a good indicator of the internal condition of the
transmission:
2. Observe the colour and the odour of the fluid. The colour under normal circumstances should be reddish, not brown
or black.
If in doubt, compare the fluid with that from a new, sealed container.
3. Allow the fluid to drip onto a facial tissue and examine the stain.
4. If evidence of solid material is found, the transmission fluid pan should be removed for further inspection.
CAUTION: Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does
not guarantee confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor
vehicle.
NOTES:
If the control module/transmission is suspect and the vehicle remains under manufacturer warranty, refer to the
Warranty Policy and Procedures manual (section B1.2), or determine if any prior approval programme is in operation, prior
to the installation of a new module/transmission.
Inspect connectors for signs of water ingress, and pins for damage and/or corrosion.
Visual Inspection
Mechanical Electrical Hydraulic
Damaged shift mechanism/linkages Blown fuse(s) Fluid level too
Damaged automatic transmission casing Damaged, loose or corroded connectors high/low
Check the transmission selector lever cable W iring harness Poor condition
for correct adjustment Contact resistance or oxidation in the of fluid
22 way connector terminals Fluid leak
3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding
to the next step.
4. Use the approved diagnostic system or a scan tool to retrieve any diagnostic trouble codes before moving onto the
diagnostic trouble code index.
Make sure that all diagnostic trouble codes are cleared following rectification.
