The Mechatronic Transmission Module (MTM) is equipped with solenoids to direct pneumatic flow to actuate shift rails and sensors to monitor rail positions. The Transmission Control Module (TCM) compares the rail command and position to ensure proper rail operation. The solenoids, positions sensors and shift rails are located in the MTM and connected to the TCM at the 74-Way Transmission Harness Connector.
The TCM monitors the Rail D Operation. If a system failure is detected, the fault is set active.
FMI 0 – Data Valid But Above Normal (Most Severe): Rail D is unable to disengage the Primary Driven Gear, move aft, for 2 seconds.
FMI 1 – Data Valid But Below Normal (Most Severe): Rail D is unable to disengage the Reverse Gear, move fore, for 2 seconds.
FMI 2 – Data Erratic: Rail D is unable to move the sliding clutch to neutral during a rail calibration.
FMI 7 – Mechanical System Not Responding: Rail D is unable move from neutral toward the Primary Driven Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 10 – Abnormal Rate of Change: Rail D is unable to confirm low rail speed velocity during a rail calibration.
FMI 14 – Special Instructions: Rail D is unable to move from neutral toward the Reverse Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 15 – Data Valid but Above Normal (Least Severe): Rail D is unable to fully engage the Primary Driven Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 16 - Data Valid but Above Normal (Moderately Severe): Rail D is unable to achieve neutral from the Primary Driven Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 17 – Data Valid but Below Normal (Least Severe): Rail D is unable to fully engage the Reverse Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 18 – Data Valid but Below Normal (Moderately Severe): Rail D is unable to achieve neutral from the Reverse Gear for 2 seconds.
FMI 20 – Data Drifted High: Rail D travel was greater than expected during a rail calibration.
FMI 21 – Data Drifted Low: Rail D travel was less than expected during a rail calibration.

Set vehicle parking brake and chock wheels.
Record the transmission fault codes, FMIs, occurrences, and timestamps from the Service Activity Report created during the Diagnostic Procedure.
If Fault Code 775 FMI 0, is Active or Inactive, Go to Step B
If Fault Code 775 FMI 1, is Active or Inactive, Go to Step C
If Fault Code 775 FMI 2, 7, 10, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21 is Active or Inactive, Go to Step D
If Fault Code 775 FMI 15, 17 is Active or Inactivez, go to TAIB-1004 Fault Code 775 Rail D Operation FMI 15/17 - Endurant HD.
Inspect for a transmission mounted PTO.
If transmission is not equipped with a PTO, Go to Step C
If transmission is equipped with a PTO:
Note: After PTO inspection: -If PTO issue is found repair as needed, refer to TRIG2610 Endurant HD PTO Installation Guide. Recheck for fault codes. -If no PTO issue found, go to Step C .
Record MTM Serial Number (Item 2).
If MTM Serial Number is less than 12S22342093445, go to service bulletin TAIB-0994 MTM Loose Rail Cover Cap Screws.
If MTM Serial Number is equal to or greater than 12S22342093445, Go to Step D
Key off.
Refer to OEM guidelines and vent the vehicle air supply line to the MTM.
Refer to OEM guidelines and remove the vehicle air supply line at the MTM.
Inspect the vehicle air supply line and the MTM air inlet port for contamination, moisture, corrosion and/or debris.
Note: Verify the MTM inlet screen is installed and free of contamination and/or debris.
If contamination is found, refer to OEM guidelines for repair or replacement of the vehicle air system. Replace the Mechatronic Transmission Module (MTM) and reference the Lower Countershaft Cover and Inertia Brake Service Procedure for replacement of the Inertia Brake Assembly. Go to Step V
Note: MTM removal and installation requires the transmission to be removed from the vehicle. Reference Endurant HD Service Manual TRSM0950, Transmission Removal Service Procedure.
If no contamination is found, Go to Step E
Remove the MTM.
Note: MTM removal and installation requires the transmission to be removed from the vehicle. Reference Endurant HD Service Manual TRSM0950, Transmission Removal Service Procedure.
Inspect the Primary Driven Gear for excessive fore and aft movement.
Inspect the Reverse Gear for excessive fore and aft movement.
If excessive gear movement is evident, inspect for cause of excessive gear movement and repair. Go to Step V
If no excessive gear movement is evident, Go to Step F
Inspect the Rail D Sliding Clutch yoke slot for wear.
Shift the Rail D Sliding Clutch to the neutral position (if necessary).
Shift the Rail D Sliding Clutch into the Primary Driven Gear engagement position (fore).
Inspect the Rail D Sliding Clutch clutching teeth for wear.
Return the Rail D Sliding Clutch to neutral.
Shift the Rail D Sliding Clutch into the Reverse Gear engagement position (aft).
Inspect the Rail D Sliding Clutch clutching teeth for wear.
Return the Rail D Sliding Clutch to neutral.
If the Rail D Sliding Clutch shifts into all three positions and no clutching teeth wear is present, replace the Mechatronic Transmission Module (MTM). Go to Step V
If the Rail D Sliding Clutch does not shift into all three positions or clutching teeth wear is present, replace the Rail D Sliding Clutch, Primary Driven Gear, Reverse Gear and Mechatronic Transmission Module (MTM). Go to Step V
Key off.
Reconnect all connectors and verify that all components are properly installed.
Key on with engine off.
Connect ServiceRanger.
Go to “Fault Codes”.
Select “Clear All Faults”.
Operate vehicle and attempt to reset the fault code or duplicate the previous complaint.
Check for fault codes using ServiceRanger.
If no fault codes set and the vehicle operates properly, test complete.
If Fault Code 775 sets Active during operation, Go to Step A
If a fault code other than 775 sets Active, troubleshoot per the Fault Code Isolation Procedure Index.
