 Preface

This manual is intended for skilled personnel

trained by ZF Friedrichshafen AG to carry out
maintenance and repair work on ZF products.

This manual deals with a ZF product in accordance

with the state of development on the date of issue.

However, due to continuing development of the

product, repair work might require work practices
and test or adjustment data which are not contained
in this manual.
We therefore recommend that work done on your
ZF product is carried out only by skilled mechanics
and fitters who have had their practical and
theoretical knowledge updated on a regular basis at
our After-Sales Service training courses.

Service points equipped by ZF Friedrichshafen AG

all over the world offer you:

1. Well-trained personnel,

2. Specified equipment,
e.g.: Special tools

3. Genuine ZF spares, according to

our latest specifications

All work performed at these service locations is

carried out conscientiously and with care.

Warranty:
Repair work carried out at ZF Service Points is
subject to the contractual conditions prevailing in
the individual case.

ting aid (34). Move the GV and GP gear shift rails
in the transmission towards the output. Move the
central gear shift rail into Neutral. Selector gate (6)

Has the transmission actuator been reprogrammed?

Refit vehicle-specific parts as far as possible. The

diagnosis unit can only be used to test the trans-
mission actuator once the engine is running and
there is a sufficient reserve of air. The system then
undertakes a number of calibration processes. This
may take up to 5 minutes. The following errors
may then be displayed: Piston rod not attached
with errors 132, 134, etc. or teaching-in error for
gear, gate, GP, GV sensors with ignition on.
