Ross-Tech is not responsible for any damage or problems that may result from following these instructions. They are to be used at your own risk.

Note: These are useful procedures that may or may not work on your particular vehicle. Consult a Factory Repair Manual before doing any modifications to your car. Before proceeding, check the Ross-Tech Wiki for vehicle and transmission-specific instructions.
 

Basic Settings:

Basic Settings should be performed on an Automatic Transmission after:

  • Engine replacement .

  • ECU replacement

  • Throttle Valve adjustment

  • TPS replacement

  • TPS adustment

  • TCM Replacement


First, make sure there are no fault codes in the Auto Trans. Then, with the key in the on position, and engine OFF. Do not touch the accelerator pedal.

[Select]

[Basic Settings - 04]

Set Group to "000" 
[Go!]
Press accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and count out loud 3 seconds.
[Done, Go Back]
Release the accelerator pedal.

It is normal for there to be no explicit instructions or changes on the screen when you do the above procedure. The transmission controller does not provide any feedback that it has been successfully performed.  For 09G transmissions, Basic Settings group 001 is used and the accelerator pedal is NOT touched.
