I've repaired 2 of these by resoldering the circuit board. It seems like the common point of failure is the through-hole connector solder joints. I resoldered the whole board anyways, but the through holes had visible fracturing in the solder joints. Get them off the transmission, the heat and vibration is the problem. The connector pins coming out of the circuit board are long and bent 90 degrees, so they'll vibrate like a tuning fork and eventually the solder joint cracks. All you gotta do is peel off the epoxy at the base of the connector to get at the through-hole pins. Touch them with a soldering iron so all the solder completely re-wets. Use LOTS of flux, then clean it off with alcohol when you're done. Replace epoxy and remount off the transmission

FYI- The transmission is a hot zone and causes the TCM board to get hot and flex causing problems with solder joints on the TCM PCB. You want to put the replaced/fixed TCM on the firewall. Attach it with zip ties to the brake lines on the firewall. Use a pad of rubber in between to isolate the brake lines. I have a 2007 Mazda 3 mounted that way and its still running with the original TCM.

Quick question yesterday my TCM problem started I saw you got your replacement from the dealer may I ask about how much I’m looking to spend just for the part ?

Mine just did this all the same lights on dash and will drive but struggles barely made it home if I put in reverse it feels like the motor is going to go thru the hood I have been having a hard shift into 3rd for years now and recently 2nd didn't want to shift into 3rd unless I was light on the throttle wonder if the TCM was to blame all along.

Well done. I purchased a used 2010 Mazda 3 i with the 2.0 recently. The previous owner had the TCM replaced. The car shifts and drives fine, but it still has the U0101 code, AT and DSC error lights on and does not show which gear has been selected. Would you have any suggestions for troubleshooting and correcting to try before buying a new TCM? Thank you for posting.

Hello , I changed my tcm and the car is back to life again , before it was going limp ? And the dcs / at / engine lights came on . Now it all seems to be working perfectly , car drives well now took it out a few times . But I still have all the dcs/at/engine lights on . Why would they have not cleared ? Any help thank you

What codes did the car read out? That would be important too.

It's a good idea to not put the tcm back where it was. This problem is caused due to solder joints cracking from thermal stress. It gets too hot where it sits. Put it up on the back firewall instead.

I replaced my tcm and got a code for bad b shift solenoid and its also show that u0101 code can it be a connection?

So mine does all of that but it has power in reverse, but it also won't shift higher then 3rd , what should I do

I have a 2012 Madza 5 with a failing TCM. I purchased a used one on ebay, installed it an the engine just randomly shut off while the car is moving. I'm assuming the TCM is bad. If I purchase a new one, does it need to be programed to work with my car?

The wiring being difficult doesn't really make sense to me. The wiring should be in connector housings, so there's no individual wires to deal with. Dealers should be able to get the right TCM for your vehicle with the VIN number. I suppose there could've been a year where they transitioned from the 5sp to 6sp auto, but then it should still just be a matter of getting the right TCM and plugging it in. I haven't heard of dealers only selling the TCM if you buy a new transmission.

I also have code U0101 similar issues happening sometimes hard jerk on reverse or drive, drove the car a few times and AT sign, engine check and TC would pop up and while driving I would feel a sudden jerk wanted to make sure that getting the tmc is the right part don’t really wanna spend the money and it not being what I needed best advice please.

Same think happened to me, changed the transmission fluids, very dark. I am waiting for my tcm in the mail. Found the part for around $550. A friend and I are going to install it once it gets here. He’s experienced with vehicles. I’ll update. Did you change your TCM? How is your car shot and are you able to repair it?

any updates? Did it fix the problem? I got the same problem but $500 dollar is too much for me. How can I find the TCM for cheaper price?

Hi I have this code and had the jerk/clunk of the car while driving. Sometimes it goes away and I can drive again but then I'll have the AT light come again with the car suddenly clunking. What causes this and is it bad for my car?

Have you been watching the video? It’s probably the same problem. If you’re unsure, then go down the expensive route by taking your car to your nearest Mazda dealer...

Go to autozone and get the codes. If it is U01001(I think 🤔) it’s the control module.
