How to perform Powershift 6DCT250 (DPS6) adaptive learning

[MondeoMatt]

Is this feature ever going to come out for the 6DCT450 version?

I can't say just how critical this feature is needed with these gearboxes.

Yep totally agree with u on that one any news if this is being looked into? Has anybody attempted to use this procedure with the dct450 ? any info would be appreciated as looking to change gearbox and need to re calibrate the tcm . Car is currently in our workshop atm . Thanks.

Only 6DCT250

Any updates on this function for the 6DCT450 ? or how we can reprogram tcm after gearbox replacement ? cheers

I really don’t think they read the English forum, haven’t done for years now. I’ve been waiting for this feature for so bloody long, I’ve given up. I have to pay my Ford garage, when I’d much rather pay for ForScan to let me do it myself.

However, ForScan seems to not be adding any new test or service procedures for European Fords. I can’t remember the last time their was a meaningful addition to the Mondeo models from before 2015, which is the vast majority that are in service and on the road today.

It’s a shame, this program had so much promise, in the beginning, but since they left the forum, updates are drying up.

Seems like I am a little late to the party on this one, but I have a 2012 Lincoln Nav with the 6r80 transmission in it.

I recently replaced the molded leadframe assembly (which has input and output shaft speed sensors on it). My hard shifting issues seem resolved, but I would like to clear the adaptive tables in the TSC.

I have the Veepeak VP01 adapter and of course FORScan. I will start poking around but I have 2 specific questions ..

1. Is this thread what I need to do? If someone has said "you should clear your adaptive tables" .. is this the same as what this thread is doing?

2. Is this possible with the adapter I have? It seems some adapters are better than others or have some sort of functionality that others don't.

Thanks!

UPDATE: Ok. so that was easy enough. I was able to find the "clear adaptive tables" in the maintenance menu and evidently successfully cleared the adaptive tables. I found this article which not EXACTLY the same procedure I did, but it does give a "relearn" driving procedure which I will follow. Here is the article: https://www.autoserviceprofessional.com ... ns-relearn

Here is some more detailed information on what happens during each of the adaptive learning phases.

Can this be used in the event of a replacement tcm? I bought a brand new tcm from ford and wondering of i can follow this procedure to program or do i need to install firmware first?
Thanks

Yes you should carry out this procedure, but you need to ensure that the TCM and PCM are on the same firmware, as they work together.

Does this clear DTC's? If DTC P2831 comes back on after a few ignition cycles after this procedure what does that mean? Do I have the wrong adapter? I have an ELS27 with double sided Green PCB PIC24HJ128GP+FTDI Mircochip. Does it mean have a bad TCM?
