ATF pump: deactivate / Hydraulic pressure accumulator: empty

♦
Vehicle diagnostic equipment

ATTENTION !
The system is under pressure!
The “7-speed dual clutch transmission 0CJ, 0CK, 0CL” is equipped with an electric ATF pump and a
hydraulic pressure accumulator.
The electric ATF pump can be started at any time.
Due to the hydraulic pressure accumulator, the ATF system is under pressure even when the ignition is
switched off.
♦
Before opening the gearbox, the electric ATF pump must be deactivated each time and the hydraulic
pressure accumulator must be emptied.
♦
If it is not clear what the state of the system is, e.g. e.g. defective gearbox control unit or gearbox of
unknown origin, loosen the screws of the mechatronic unit only minimally so that the oil pressure
in the pressure accumulator can slowly decrease.
♦
Detach the electrical connector from the automatic transmission control unit -J217- before removing
the oil pan.
♦
Use protective glasses!
