Learn The 1ST 2-3 Shift After A Restart Or Shift To Reverse

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Dakota and 2003 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Use the following steps to have the TCM learn the 1st 2-3 shift OD CVI.

NOTE: The transmission oil temperature must be above 80°F (27°C).
  1. With the vehicle engine running, select reverse gear for over 2 seconds.
  2. Shift the transmission to Drive and accelerate the vehicle from a stop at a steady 15 degree throttle opening and perform a 2-3 shift while noting the 1st 2-3 OD CVI.
  3. Repeat Step  1 and Step  2 until the 1st 2-3 upshift becomes smooth and the 1st 2-3 OD CVI stabilizes.
