When vehicle voltage (terminal 30) fails, application values are lost, i.e Transmission Control Module (TCM) must learn
these values again when vehicle is started. During this renewed "learning", shifting quality may be worse than normal.

This malfunction will only be registered by OBD if it occurs 5 times consecutively after the ignition is switched off and on.

Note:

For malfunction recognition of DTC 17101 / P0717:

Malfunction recognition includes a plausibility test: The ratio from transmission input RPM to engine RPM and
transmission output RPM with drive mode selected is implausible. (Test requirement: a driving mode must clearly be
selected, not -P- or -N- or between modes and gear must already be engaged).
