What it means

Check these first

What to do next

  1. Scan all modules for stored codes that triggered the shutdown
  2. Read torque management and transmission live data during a stall
  3. Check transmission fluid level and condition
  4. Test the throttle position and accelerator pedal signals
  5. Update the transmission control module calibration if out of date
  6. Clear the code and retest
