Description

Short-circuit or low-resistance connection to supply voltage at positive sensor terminal.

Effects on the driving operation

Hard shifts

Driving in reverse gear is not possible or restricted.

If the output sensor is also defective, only limp-home mode available

No torque limitation relative to the engine speed

Engine torque reduction is limited.

The characteristic curve of the auxiliaries is not considered.

The engine speed and values derived from it are incorrectly set in the CAN communication.

Possible causes

Short-circuit in plug, cabling or sensor.

Troubleshooting

  1. Check the plug connections and cables.
    (Instruction: see "Related Topics")
  2. Dismantle speed sensor out of transmission, but do not disconnect electrical plug connections. Create a signal with a metallic object (e.g. screwdriver). A signal should be displayed in the test window for monitoring frequencies. The object must be moved to and fro relative to the sensor in the plane in which normally the teeth of the measurement gear pass the sensor (see animation).
  3. Replace speed sensor with a new one and check new sensor with a metallic object by means of the test window for monitoring frequencies.
  4. Replace the control unit.
  5. If none of the above measures brings any improvement, please contact the Voith Turbo headquarters.



Final function check

If the defective component cannot be clearly identified, you should try to reproduce the fault:

  • Reinstall the component in the vehicle.
  • Test the function.

After the fault has been eliminated, the following steps have to be carried out:

  • Conduct a test drive with function check.
  • Read out the fault memory.
  • Check the transmission for leaks.
  • Perform a final visual inspection.

These steps are necessary to ensure the entire vehicle functions.
