Description

The Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) control system measures the required data to determine the condition of the control target and calculates the corresponding compensation value, if adjustment is necessary. The actuator is controlled according to the calculated compensation value to obtain the desired result. If a malfunction related to the transmission or driving performance is detected, first perform self-diagnosis and a basic transmission inspection (oil check). Then use the diagnostic tool to inspect the transmission control system components.
