Transmission control module identification can only be printed out when printer is switched on.





Indicated on display

Note: Read Transmission Control Module (TCM) identification to determine which transmission/engine combination is present in this particular case, see clarification above. Then use coding table to determine whether the appropriate code is entered.

^ Press buttons -O- and -7-. This selects "Coding Control Module", function 07.
