DIAGNOSIS <TC-SST>

TSB Revision

TWIN CLUTCH- SPORTRONIC SHIFT TRANSMISSION (TC-SST)

22C-137

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C −

Troubleshooting

P.54C-15

.) After repairing the CAN

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. P1821 set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 − How

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

.)

STEP 3. Scan tool Teach-In
(1) Carry out the Item No. 1: Plausibility check. (Refer to

Special Function (Teach-In Reference Table

P.22C-365

).)

(2) After Teach-In, check which result ("Yes" or "No") is

displayed in the Data list No. 101: Normal End. (Refer to
Special Function (Teach-In Reference Table

P.22C-365

).)

Q: Which is displayed, "Yes" or "No"?

"Yes" : Replace the transaxle assembly. (Refer to

P.22C-412

.)

"No" : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Replace the mechatronic assembly, and check if
the DTC is reset.
(1) Replace the mechatronic assembly. (Refer to

P.22C-421

.)

(2) Perform a test run of the vehicle.
(3) Check the DTC.
Q: Is DTC No.P1821 set?

YES : Replace the transaxle assembly. (Refer to

P.22C-412

.)

NO : This diagnosis is complete.

DTC P1822: Shift Fork Position Sensor 1 System (Output range out)

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines,

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

TC-SST-ECU checks that the output of the shift fork
position sensor 1 is normal.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The output of the shift fork position sensor 1 is deter-
mined to be abnormal.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Continuous

DIAGNOSIS <TC-SST>

TSB Revision

TWIN CLUTCH- SPORTRONIC SHIFT TRANSMISSION (TC-SST)

22C-139

• Shift system status: Gear change mode (during

shift fork moving).

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

• Shift fork 1 position counter (digitized sensor

value): −500 counts or less, or shift fork 1 position

counter (digitized sensor value): 500 counts or
more. (180 millisecond)

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN

The status with the shift fork 1 position counter (digi-
tized sensor value) −500 counts or more, or with the

shift fork 1 position counter (digitized sensor value)
500 counts or less continues for 180 milliseconds.

.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of TC-SST-ECU
• Malfunction of shift fork position sensor 1

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
• MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable
• MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C −

Troubleshooting

P.54C-15

.) After repairing the CAN

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) With the engine idle status, operate the shift lever in the

following sequence: P → R → D → R → P. (Hold each range

for 5 seconds or more.)

(3) Check that the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No.P1822 set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 − How

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

.)

STEP 3. Scan tool Teach-In
(1) Carry out the Item No. 1: Plausibility check. (Refer to
