CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
Functions Of The Mode Button
This button is used to invoke a special function
(mode) that has been programmed into the
ECU. Both modes are equivalent from the first
to the fourth gear as the transmission upshifts at
around 2000 rpm.
•
the default
"ECONOMY"
mode allows for
upshifts in fifth and sixth gear at around
1700 rpm. This is a more efficient operation
of the transmission and thereby helps
improve fuel economy.
•
the
"PERF"
(performance) mode keeps
upshifts at 2000 rpm in fifth and sixth gears.
This makes for better performance than the
economy mode but with a higher fuel
consumption. It is recommended this mode
be selected while driving up or down grades.
The mode status will be indicated on the
digital display by a red LED illuminating in
the upper right corner of the MODE button
when selected.

(
OPTIONAL
)
Select oil level display mode by pressing
simultaneously on the "
" and "
" keys. A first
press will indicate the transmission oil level after
a two-minute wait if the following conditions are
met:
•
the vehicle is parked;
•
the engine is in slow idle;
•
normal operating temperature is attained;
•
transmission is in NEUTRAL;
•
the sender unit is present and working.
A code will be displayed one digit at a time:
•
O L - O K (oil level is correct);
•
L O - 0 1 (one quart low);
•
L O - 0 2 (two quarts low);
•
H I - 0 1
(one quart high);
•
H I - 0 2
(two quart high).
Note :
If one or more conditions are not met,
an error code will be displayed:
•
O L - 5 0 (engine RPM too low);
•
O L - 5 9 (engine RPM too high);
•
O L - 6 5 (transmission not at NEUTRAL);
•
O L - 7 0 (sump oil temperature too low);
•
O L - 7 9 (sump oil temperature too high);
•
O L - 8 9 (output shaft rotation);
•
O L - 9 5 (sender unit defective).
To exit, press either D, R, or N button.
Diagnostic Display Mode
Pressing a second time (or a first time if oil level
option not present) on the "
" and "
" keys will
select diagnostic display mode. Refer to
"Technical Information" chapter for more
information about the WT diagnostic codes. To
exit diagnostic display mode, press either D, R,
N button, or up and down arrow keys at the
same time.
O
PERATION
When a button is depressed, the corresponding
letter or number is displayed indicating the
transmission is ready to operate in the selected
range. When the electronic control system
detects a serious problem in the transmission, a
buzzing tone sounds for 5 seconds and the
"CHECK TRANS"
light on the dashboard
illuminates to warn the driver that the
transmission is held in gear. If another is
depressed, the buzzing sound will continue until
the original range is selected.
Note :
As a light bulb and systems check,
the "CHECK TRANS" light will illuminate when
the ignition switch is turned to O
N
. After about
two seconds the light will turn off. If the "CHECK
TRANS" light remains on, the self-diagnostic
system has detected a problem. If the problem
disappears, the light will go out, but a trouble
code will remain stored in the ECU.
