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.
