@@navilubana8577 it sounds like it could be the range cylinder on back of trans. The high low splitter also has an actuator. If it’s a reman trans this most likely came new or rebuilt but you would have to check or test it. It’s also possible you’re not getting correct air pressures or voltage to transmission. I don’t know enough about your specific situation on what was replaced, or how it was diagnosed to begin with but I would start by checking the codes, and then try to work your way through it. Sounds like it’s not getting hogh range which is controlled by the rear actuator. Can’t remember terminology

Warren, you always share the trials just to look out for everyone else, that is the mark of a true mechanic. Thanks for the videos and I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year. Stay Safe!

Hey bud, that code 63 gets triggered by low voltage sometimes on the xy shift controller. No worries I think you got it man! Thanks for update! Ken

You Sir, are a gentleman that admits his errors and a scholar that credits his sources. You also happen to be one hell of a mechanic. This one has been interesting to follow.

That noise is common for those compressors. My company has about 10 trucks that make that noise. Also, im pretty sure that F flashing is for fault, not forward. These transmissions usually will throw a code using that key method from my experience. My only experience is with eaton software with these transmissions, and it's very limited at that, so thanks for the video. I'm definitely gonna pen this info down for when our transmissions inevitably fail.

We are all still learning warren 👍👍.we all need help so you passing on what you have found is great .You won't make the same mistake again 👍👍. A happy Christmas to you and your family.

Hey Warren, always an opportunity to learn something new. Great job getting a little advice on how to fix that thing. Thanks much for the video.

I don't know if your going to post another video before Christmas Warren but if we don't see you before. have a Merry Christmas along with your family, thank you for showing us everything from how to fix, rants, storytime and all the quality entertainment you've provided Warren, take care.👍

It’s good to see that you conquered the beast sometimes in life you have to go through a lot of pain to get to that next level👍

Hi Warren. My name is Chad. I've been following u for yrs now. I love what u do and how u explain things to everyone. Do let these stupid chump haters get to u. U are doing an amazing job. Keep it up.

Thanks for sharing Warren! Sounds like you had a lot to figure out with that trans!

Cheers Warren, every day’s a school day as they say. Reminds me of those Loading Shovel Powershift Transmission when you change the Oil and Filter you have to reset the Clutch biting points through the Laptop.

Thank you for sharing your experience again. Would like to say , that when removed and installed ultrashift I never used "open clutch" proceedure. Just installed and removed caging bolts. And neverbhad problems even without connecting service ranger or any other diag program. Of course, with new clutch it is needed to be calibrated. Thanks again, Warren. And Merry Christmas!

Feel for Ya Warren, your trials are a reminder that we can all learn from others. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and a great New Year. Stay Safe

The last one you worked on had a noisy compressor too. Glad you figured out that crazy ass truck! Thanks Warren!

Warren. You are not alone. I had a car that was stack shifting. Single owner. Brought it to a local shop 85k miles, they “rebuilt the transmission”. No they swapped it with a reman. No warranty. Still no fix. I asked them “did anybody check the TCU or the ECM”? They all looked at each other with their heads up their ass. So I had it towed to the OEM thinking this will get to the bottom of it…. WRONG. When I walked in the door, I specifically told them to (oem) check the TCM. They said they would do a full diagnostic on it, and they did……. They swapped out the tranny with another reman. I demanded to see the oil sample they took out of the trans they replaced, it looked fine. A kid 20 years younger than me argued with me that the oil was contaminated…he said, “there’s 80k miles on this trans, it’s got brass in the oil”. I said…. “You’re the OEM right?” “Yes we are”. “What is the fuckin vin number, the engine serial number, and the original transmission serial number that was installed?” Well guess what. He called his service manager over and said I was being rude…. End of story. The fuckin TCU was bad. I had to fight for money for 2 trans from two shops plus labor. 60 days with no car. I don’t know how you do it Warren.

Warren...bad ass. Always learning. Love your channel. Keep it up

Brake rivet or a ball bearing always good for blocking off pipes.

Thank you warren. I learn from the struggle that we have with the equipment we work on. I had one a couple weeks ago on a hagie sprayer that the air dryer was purging all the time and it has a wet tank and dry tank. I got looking at it and the check valve had blown out and it holding to much back pressures. I replaced the valve and it was working right.

Thank you warren 👍 have a good one

The noise from the air compressor is completely normal. Usually these trucks come with a noise box filter which makes the noise a whole lot more quiet. Good work warren

good info, thanks for sharing that !!

Sounds good! To me! Had a big cam Cummings in a KW the air compressor made a ticking when working sure you know what I mean ! Had a driver freak out thinking that there was a problem with engine. Great he was listening and was smart enough to tell me! But had to laugh to tell him is was normal for that older style compressor!

Great Videos

If you put the clutch in service position that opens the forks on actuator so you can pull the transmission off the clutch if your leaving clutch on flywheel when you remove trans. That is so you don’t have to remove actuator before pulling trans. Pretty sure that’s how it works whereas the open position is to adjust if necessary

Great video thanks for sharing

Good stuff. I learned a lot.

warren your the best ... what dont kill ya only makes you stronger! it feels good to win huh?! upwards and onwards!!

How interesting great video,

Being able to work on trucks with automated transmissions is becoming crucial since half of all class 8 trucks sold in the United States are equipped with manual transmissions and 90 percent of Volvo and Freightliner trucks are built with automated transmissions.

@@garrettfoote8570 I test drove a few trucks with the Allison tc-10 when it was first released and it was an amazing transmission. It was released at a bad time when manufacturers were making the switch to integrated power trains. The TC-10 uses a torque converter and twin countershafts. The benefit of the torque converter is torque multiplication.

To prevent this crap? Don't work on one of these trucks. I know you'll be glad to see the tail lights on this one go out the drive way. Thanks for your time. I enjoy watching your videos.

I recently put a new clutch in my ultrashift. 2015 model. I went with an Ace Mfg clutch.

I wished there were a whole bunch more patriots like U out there

I feel for ya,been there a few times.I wanted to pass on some things i have learned being a Deere dealer for almost 30 years.I have started engines on either more times than i want to admit.Since dealing with 6125 and early 6081 engines being air locked, I started using Napa (mac's) spray silicone to start stubborn engines(Directly into the turbo).The engine will just idle without knocking or revving up.Usually my customer is standing over my shoulder and is not so worried ,being that silicone won't dry out the cylinders.As far as shutting of the return ,I learned that years ago.The thing you have to be careful about is blowing the front seal out of the HPCR pump especially on the 4045,6068,and the 6090.I usually watch the fuel pressure and shut the engine off or open a ball valve on the return when the pressure reaches 100 psi..

Bloody nora what a mission this bastard has been for you

Technology is lovely.

One of my KW T880 trucks had that transmission "F" (fault) indicator flash while in operation, and I'd have to stop what I'm doing, put shifter in neutral, shut-off engine for a minute then restart to reset the TCM, then off to the races. It happened so many times especially in the middle of intersections that the company finally sold the truck. For now I've switched to another KW truck with manual transmission. The company is so frustrated over these 3rd Gen Eaton Ultra-Shifts that they are selling them out of the fleet and reordering new KW trucks with the Allison auto transmissions which are a dream in dump trucks. The Ultra-Shifts are great distance road transmissions but absolutely horrible in crawling speed and off-road dump truck use.

Good job....

Service position turns the release fork the opposite direction completely out of the way so you can pull the trans if leaving the clutch on the flywheel if not it will be stuck between the release bearing. Open clutch should only be used to adjust the clutch, if you pulled the transmission and clutch together with it in the open position the clutch would be pulling on the clutch bolts as you loosen them. The clutch service manual CLSM0200 ( which you can look up) Says when tightening the caging bolts to run them in till the shoulder touches then go another full turn and that’s plenty.

What do you use for invoicing and labor times?

I actually just had one this week doing what you described, it ended up being a combination of things. The LICB was not functioning properly (low inertia clutch brake) which was mainly caused by an overgrease condition in throwout bearing. Autoluber was not metering correctly, also the clutch itself had a few pieces of springs that were hanging up internally on pressure plate. Was your clutch replaced? Once those items were corrected I did replace xy shifter and both speed sensors on top shift box. I checked the rear hi low box solenoids and reinstalled. After it was back together it ran good. Pretty sure it was the combination of the LICB, the clutch, and the old xy shifter

They are still the most common manual Trans set up

So the reset clutch thing is on the clutch itself or the actuator? The issue I'm having is that I can't get the actuator to push the throw out bearing far enough to slow the clutch brake. I'll put the trans in service mode, drop the big actuator module from the bottom of the transmission, move the bearing fork and re-install the module, turn the truck on to bring it out of service mode, then the module will push the throw out bearing all the way one time and then it acts as if it "learns" its travel or something and then it won't go all the way to the clutch brake any time after that, none of the clutch data resets or calibration will fix the travel of it.
