Transmission function is monitored electronically for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected that could result in transmission damage, Transmission Limp Home Mode is activated. In this mode, the transmission remains in third gear regardless of which forward gear is selected.
PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL will continue to operate.
Limp Home Mode allows the vehicle to be driven to an authorized dealer for service without damaging the transmission.
In the event of a momentary problem, the transmission can be reset to regain
all forward gears by performing the following steps: 1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF position.
4. Wait approximately 10 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the
transmission will return to normal operation.
NOTE: Even if the transmission can be reset, we recommend that you visit your
authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience. Your authorized dealer
has diagnostic equipment to determine if the problem could recur.
If the transmission cannot be reset, authorized dealer service is required.
