Programming or cloning
The module is programmed in two steps: positioner calibration, then adaptation to the gearbox and the car. If you prefer, we will clone the data from your old module; cloning is part of the price.
Typical symptoms
A faulty module can cause these symptoms:
- gearbox fault message,
- the gearbox does not respond when D or R is selected,
- the car cannot be shifted out of P,
- the gearbox goes into limp mode.
Similar symptoms can come from the selector, wiring or the gearbox control unit (VGS), so a diagnosis before buying is worthwhile.
