Replacement

Note. When replacing the TCM, the vehicle equipped with immobilizer must be performed the procedure as below. [In the case of installing used TCM] Perform "TCM neutralization mode" procedure with GDS. (Refer to " IMMOBILIZER " in BE group) Insert the key and turn it to the IGN ON and OFF position. Then the TCM key register process is completed automatically. [In the case of installing new TCM]- Insert the key and turn it to the IGN ON and OFF position. Then the TCM key register process is completed automatically.

  1. Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.
  2. Disconnect the TCM connector (A).
  3. Remove the bracket installation bolts (A) and the nut (B). TCM installation bolt/nut: 9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft)

Installation

  1. Installation is reverse of removal. NOTE: In the case of the vehicle equipped with immobilizer or button engine start system, perform "Key Teaching" procedure together (Refer to " «IMMOBILIZER»(ref-536094) " or "Button Engine Start System in BE group).

Removal

Note. Replacing an on/off solenoid valve (SS-A, SS-B) does not require additional hydraulic pressure adjustment; however, the hydraulic pressure will need to be adjusted after replacing the VFS solenoid valve. If replacing the VFS solenoid valve; also replace the valve body assembly. (Refer to " VALVE BODY " in this group)
