Note

Note

When a system function is activated with the diagnostic tool, the control module will execute a command that is not functionally normal. In activation mode, the diagnostic tool governs the control module, which is why the activation command must be used with discernment. An activated function is always reset when exiting activation mode and continuing with the diagnostic tool menu. Always clear any DTCs in the transmission system or any other system when work is completed.


Note

Important

Activation mode can only be selected in gear position N. The diagnostic tool will display SHIFT TO N AND THEN PRESS ENTER. All activation commands can be cancelled with ESC.

Function

1

WINTER LAMP FUNCTION ON/OFF ON OFF

The control module activates the winter lamp. In activation mode, the winter lamp can be controlled via the diagnostic tool keys F1 and F2. F2 turns off the lamp (= OFF) and F1 turns it on (= ON).

2

SPORT LAMP FUNCTION ON/OFF ON OFF

The control module activates the sport lamp. In activation mode, the sport lamp can be controlled via the diagnostic tool keys F1 and F2. F2 turns off the lamp (= OFF) and F1 turns it on (= ON).

3

SOLENOID 1-2/3-4 FUNCTION ON/OFF ACTIVE 30s/1Hz

The control module activates shift solenoid 1-2/3-4 (S1) for 30 seconds at a frequency of 1 Hz. If in working order the solenoid will click.

4

SOLENOID 2-3 FUNCTION ON/OFF ACTIVE 30s/1Hz

The control module activates shift solenoid 2-3 (S2) for 30 seconds at a frequency of 1 Hz. If in working order the solenoid will click.

5

SOLENOID LOCK-UP FUNCTION ON/OFF ACTIVE 30s/1Hz

The transmission control module activates the lock-up solenoid (SL) for 30 seconds at a frequency of 1 Hz. If in proper working order, the solenoid will click. A stethoscope should be used.

6

TORQUE LIMITATION FUNCTION ON/OFF OF WHICH OVER 3000 RPM ENGINE SPEED: ---- RPM

For certain shifting operations it is desirable to reduce engine torque so that shifting will be smoother. A torque limitation request signal then goes from the transmission control module to the Motronic engine control module, which reduces the torque. The function is initiated in activation mode. Engine running at idling speed and over 3,000 rpm. The Motronic engine control module retards the ignition, which can be seen on the tachometer and may also be felt

7

SOLENOID PRESS REG ACTIVE 30s/1Hz ---- mA

The control module activates the solenoid pressure regulator (ST) for 30 seconds at a frequency of 1 Hz. The solenoid is activated alternately with 250 mA and 910 mA. The current levels are approximate and are presented on the diagnostic tool display. The solenoid will click if working. Use a stethoscope.

8

CHECK GEARBOX FUNCTION ON/OFF ON OFF

The control module activates the CHECK GEARBOX indicator lamp. In activation mode, CHECK GEARBOX can be controlled via the diagnostic tool keys F1 and F2. F2 turns off the lamp (= OFF) and F1 turns it on (= ON).

9

CHECK ENGINE FUNCTION ON/OFF ON OFF

The command is applicable only on cars adapted for the OBD II diagnosis regulated by law in USA. The engine control module (Saab Trionic or Motronic) activates the CHECK ENGINE indicator lamp. OBD II trouble codes in the transmission must also affect the lamp. In activation mode, CHECK ENGINE can be controlled via the diagnostic tool keys F1 and F2. F2 turns off the lamp (= OFF) and F1 turns it on (= ON).
