How does a gearbox control unit fault show?
A faulty gearbox control unit can cause these symptoms:
- gearbox warning light or fault message,
- the gearbox will not engage a gear or stays in neutral (N),
- jerking when pulling away or changing gear.
The same symptoms can come from the clutch or gear-shift actuator – run a gearbox diagnosis before you buy the control unit.
