Your EconoMind Diesel Tuner displays

the “4,3” diagnostic code (refer to

TROUBLESHOOTING in Section

10 on how to read codes) when it

needs to learn your transmission

configuration. This always occurs

when the EconoMind Diesel Tuner

is first installed on the truck. The

EconoMind Diesel Tuner is equipped

with advanced safety features to

preserve your automatic transmission.

One of them is the capability to detect

the occurrence of transmission slip,

and it will automatically de-rate the

engine output power accordingly.
Before this safety feature can take

effect, the EconoMind Diesel Tuner

needs to learn that your truck

is equipped with an automatic

transmission.

1.

The following driving test shall

be performed in an area where

speeds over 55mph are safe and

traffic is light. For a vehicle with a

manual transmission, follow Step

2. For a vehicle with an automatic

transmission, follow Step 3. While

driving, listen for any exhaust leaks or

rattles, or intake boost leaks. After the

engine cools, re-tighten clamps and

hoses if leaks are detected.

2.

(Manual trans) To teach the

EconoMind Diesel Tuner that your

truck is equipped with a manual

transmission, drive the truck at a

speed over 55 mph for at least 2

minutes. The “4,3” diagnostic code

will be eliminated.
Repeat if necessary to eliminate code.

Proceed to Section 10.

3.

(Auto Trans) To teach the

EconoMind Diesel Tuner that your

truck is equipped with an automatic

transmission drive the truck at a

speed over 55mph until the torque

converter is locked (the toque

converter is usually locked at speeds

over 55mph). With the torque

converter locked and with turbo boost

below 10psig (ie, light load), maintain

the attained speed steadily for at least

30 seconds. Once the transmission is

learned, the “4,3” diagnostic code will

be eliminated. Repeat if necessary to

eliminate code.

the most current event will appear

at the bottom of the list. Each event

has an associated timestamp and

description, which will be displayed

below the list when that event is

highlighted. Each key cycle of the

vehicle produces a minimum of two
