Removing the emergency mode of the automatic transmission on your own:
1. Define the problem:
* Scan trouble codes using a code scanner.
* Check the level and condition of the transmission fluid.
* Check for leaks or damage.
2. Reset fault codes:
* Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for 10 minutes.
* Reconnect the battery terminal.
* Start the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes.
3. Check the level and condition of the transmission fluid:
* Measure the transmission fluid level using the dipstick or drain plug.
* Check the liquid for color, odor and impurities.
4. Correct leaks or damage:
* Replace damaged gaskets, seals or hoses.
* Tighten any loose bolts or nuts.
5. Take a test drive:
* Drive at different speeds and under different loads.
* Listen for unusual noises or vibrations.
6. Check for repeated faults:
* Scan the trouble codes again.
*If fault codes are present, the problem is not resolved.
7. Contact a professional:
*If you are unable to resolve the problem yourself, contact a qualified mechanic.
Note:
* Not all automatic transmission problems can be solved by resetting fault codes.
* If the automatic transmission’s limp mode is accompanied by loss of power, noise or vibration, contact your mechanic immediately.
