SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION!
Follow all safety recommendations and safe shop practices
outlined in the front of this manual or those contained within this
section.
Always use tools and equipment that are in good working order.
APPLICABLE MODELS
The contents of this section apply to the following models and
serial number ranges.
INTRODUCTION
The "WG" series of ZF Transmissions use an electronic control system called
"ZF-Ergopower."
The Ergo System (for short) allows the transmission to function either in a
manual powershift mode, or in a fully automatic mode.
An LCD display (Figure 1) is in the cab. This display gives the machine operator
a continuos status of the operating condition of the system. It displays normal
operational codes, and fault codes.

Throughout this section the following abbreviations are used to indicate various

DEFINITION OF OPERATING
MODES
Normal
There is no failure detected in transmission system or failure has
no or slight effects on transmission control. TCU will work without
or in special cases with little limitations. (See “Table of Fault
Codes” on page -14.)
limp-home
The detected failure in the system has strong limitations to
transmission control. TCU can engage only one gear in each
direction. In some cases only one direction will be possible.
TCU will shift the transmission into neutral at the first occurrence
of the failure. First, the operator must shift the gear selector into
neutral position.
If output speed is less than a threshold for neutral to gear and
the operator shifts the gear selector into forward or reverse, the
TCU will select the limp-home gear.
If output speed is less than a threshold for reversal speed and
TCU has changed into the limp-home gear and the operator
selects a shuttle shift, TCU will shift immediately into the limp-
home gear of the selected direction.
If output speed is greater than the threshold, TCU will shift the
transmission into neutral. The operator has to slow down the
vehicle and must shift the gear selector into neutral position.
TCU will shut off all solenoid valves and also both common power
supplies (VPS1, VPS2). The park brake will engage, also all functions
are disabled which use ADM 1 to ADM 8.
