After the automatic transaxle is reinstalled, the QR code label will be positioned where the code cannot be read. Therefore, before reinstalling the automatic transaxle, record the transaxle compensation codes or input them in the intelligent tester.
- When the TCM is replaced, the existing transaxle compensation codes must be input into the new TCM (Proceed to step 2).
