Dakota 4WD V8-4.7L VIN J (2007)
-
Apply an initial duty cycle (APPROXIMATELY 94%) to shift motor control wires.
-
Control the acceleration of the shift motor by increasing the applied duty cycle at a specified rate.
-
Control the deceleration of the shift motor by updating the applied duty cycle to the shift motor control wires at a specified rate based upon the
difference between the desired position and the current position.
SHIFT ATTEMPT LIMIT
To protect the transfer case system, the FCM will impose a limit on the number of shifts that can occur over a calibrated time period. The system will
monitor the number of mode sensor position changes that occur in any 25 second time period. If the number of changes is 10 or greater, the system will
go into a default mode. The default mode of operation for shifting is that the number of allowed changes permitted to occur will be 3 over each 15
second ± 100 msec calibrated window of time. After 5 minutes ± 100 msec, the motor can be assumed to have cooled down and the system will revert
to normal operation. The following rules also apply to the shift limit:
-
The attempt limit will not prevent shifts coming out of NEUTRAL, they will be allowed regardless of the counter/timer.
-
Any shift that is in progress when the counter reaches a maximum count in time will be allowed to complete before the default mode is entered.
Position changes during this period will not be counted towards the default mode limit.
-
A block, regardless of the direction, whether towards destination or back towards reversal target (shift timer expiring), will count as a value of 2
position changes towards the 10 position changes to go into default mode as defined above. Current attempt limit values are 10 transitions in 25
seconds and default mode values are 1 transition every 10 seconds for 5 minutes.
