    This document provides procedures for resetting and relearning the adaptive values in the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or Transmission Control Module (TCM) after replacing an automatic transmission or reprogramming the PCM/TCM. The procedures involve using a Global Diagnostic System (GDS) to reset the adaptive values, then driving the vehicle through specific acceleration and deceleration patterns to allow the PCM/TCM to relearn the adaptive values based on transmission performance. Following these procedures helps ensure optimal shift quality after certain transmission repairs.

    Tech Tip: Hyundai Resetting PCM/TCM Adaptive Values


    The PCM or TCM contains logic to adjust solenoid duty and line
    pressure as needed to compensate for normal clutch wear over the life
    of the transaxle. This bulletin provides the procedures necessary to
    reset (erase) and “relearn” the PCM/TCM adaptive values.

    Caution: After replacing a transaxle or reprogramming the PCM/TCM, to improve the shift
    quality condition, follow this procedure to reset and relearn the adaptive learning.

    The PCM or TCM contains logic to adjust solenoid duty and line pressure as needed to
    compensate for normal clutch wear over the life of the transaxle. This bulletin provides the
    procedures necessary to reset (erase) and “relearn” the PCM/TCM adaptive values.

    After the following repairs have been completed, the PCM/TCM adaptive values must be
    reset in order to provide optimum shift quality:

    – Replace automatic transaxle

    – Reprogram or exchange a PCM/TCM from another vehicle.

    I. Reset PCM/TCM Adaptive Values with GDS:

    1. Attach a GDS and select VIN and A/T menu. See Fig. 1.

    2. From the main screen, select “Option Treatment.”

    3. Select “Resetting Auto TIA values” and follow the screen


    prompts.

    Turn the ignition key off for 10 seconds.

    II. Relearn Adaptive Values:

    Note: After the adaptive values have been reset (erased), an “adaptive learning” procedure
    must be completed.

    4. Attach a GDS and select VIN and A/T.

    5. Select Current Data and “Throttle Position.”

    6. Drive the vehicle until the ATF temperature is within the range shown. See chart.
    7. Ask an assistant to monitor the GDS. Accelerate from a stop at
    the speci ed IPS speci cation while the transmission shifts
    through gears 1-2-3-4-5-6 and decelerate slowly to a stop. Stop
    for ve seconds. Repeat ve times.

    Note: Hold the accelerator pedal steady during the upshifts.

    Caution: Do not exceed legal speed limits.

    If additional adaptation is needed, perform the following


    additional procedures:

    8. Perform several sequential downshifts (5-4, 4-3, 3-2 and 2-1) at small-to-moderate
    throttle openings.

    9. Perform several skip shifts (6-4, 5-3, 5-2, 3-1, etc.) at moderate-to-large throttle
    openings.

    10. With the vehicle stopped, move the shift lever from P to N to D and back, stopping three
    to ve seconds in each gear. Repeat ve times.

    Note: Adaptive learning occurs only within the ATF temperature ranges shown in the chart.
