TCU 524227.07 (TCU )
Code: 524227.07
Shortcode:
Description:
This diagnostic trouble code (TCU 524227.07) is generated if the filter bypass valve (for coldweather starting) is closed under the following conditions:
- Transmission input speed (engine speed) is over 1400 rpm and transmission oil temperature is below 5°C (23°F).
- Engine OFF. The diagnostic trouble code triggers the alarm level: “Information”.
Reaction:
When this error code is detected, the equipment may experience issues related to incorrect operation of the filter bypass valve during cold weather starting conditions. The system might display an informational alarm to notify the operator.
