Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X. Manual - part 528

DIAGNOSIS <TC-SST>

TSB Revision

TWIN CLUTCH- SPORTRONIC SHIFT TRANSMISSION (TC-SST)

22C-69

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
After 5 or more seconds have passed with the ignition switch 
ON position, check that the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. P0963 set?

YES : Replace the mechatronic assembly. (Refer to 

P.22C-421

.)

NO :  Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 − How 

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-15

.)

DTC P0964: Clutch Cooling Flow Solenoid System (Open circuit)

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, 

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be 
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN 
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that 

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

TC-SST-ECU checks that the clutch cooling flow 
solenoid circuit is normal.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The clutch cooling flow solenoid circuit is determined 
to be open.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Continuous

.

MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• Voltage of battery: 8 V or more.
• Voltage of battery: 16.5 V or less.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

• FET (Field Effect Transistor) output: 1 V or more. 

(180 millisecond)

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN

The FET channel output remains 1 V or less for 180 
milliseconds.

.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of TC-SST-ECU
• Malfunction of clutch cooling flow solenoid

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
• MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable
• MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C − 

Troubleshooting 

P.54C-15

.) After repairing the CAN 

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. P0964 set?

YES : Replace the mechatronic assembly. (Refer to

DTC P0965: Clutch Cooling Flow Solenoid System (Overcurrent)

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, 

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be 
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN 
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that 

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

TC-SST-ECU checks that the clutch cooling flow 
solenoid circuit is normal.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The supply current to the clutch cooling flow solenoid 
is determined to be overcurrent.
