t  Vehicle diagnostic tester
Requirements for basic setting:
l  Vehicle diagnostic tester is connected.
l  Selector lever is in position „P“.
–  Using vehicle diagnostic tester in Guided Functions mode, select 02 - Gearbox electronics and then select the appropriate basic setting function.
l  It is important to follow all the instructions given by the vehicle diagnostic tester exactly in order to complete the basic setting successfully.
The following „basic settings“ are currently available:
t  1. Basic setting complete
t  2. Basic setting neutral
t  3. Basic setting removal position
Description of basic settings:
1. Basic setting complete
Basic setting complete must be performed after the following operations:
t  When the gearbox is operated for the first time
t  When the dual clutch has been removed
t  When the mechatronic unit for dual clutch gearbox -J743- with control unit has been renewed
t  When gearbox repairs have been performed
t  When the gearbox has been removed
  Note
t  The basic setting complete function on the vehicle diagnostic tester achieves a fast and comprehensive self-adaption of the clutch system. The clutch and gear actuators are re-adapted. The current clutch engagement point, the current degree of wear, the synchronisation points and the end positions of the gear actuators with gears engaged are detected and stored.
t  Clutch self-adaption is performed regularly during normal driving, according to the amount of clutch wear. However, this adaption is only possible under specific driving conditions. For this reason a „Basic setting“ of the clutch must be performed after certain repairs, as listed above. This achieves optimum adjustment for gearshifts and clutch engagement when moving off.
2. Basic setting neutral
Basic setting neutral moves the gear actuators into the removal position. This ensures that the mechatronic unit does not "catch" during removal.
Basic setting neutral also attempts to shift out of all gears so that the vehicle can be pushed, e.g. if the clutch is defective.
   
3. Basic setting removal position
In the Basic setting removal position it is possible to check that the bellows of the clutch actuators -A- and -B- are correctly seated and not leaking or damaged.
t  In the Basic setting removal position the two clutch actuators -A- and -B- are also moved all the way out in the direction of the -arrow-. The two clutch actuator levers -1- and -2- are thus pressed away from the mechatronic unit.
t  The gear actuators are also moved to the removal position.
t  When the ignition is switched off, the force is no longer applied to the two clutch actuators -A- and -B-. The clutch engaging levers -1- and -2- press the clutch actuators back into the mechatronic unit.
