Five tips
- Keep the battery in good condition. A weak battery is one of the most underestimated causes of gear-change faults. If in doubt, have it tested.
- Have the hydraulic fluid changed in time and only use the specified fluid.
- Select neutral when waiting longer (for example at a level crossing); this takes the load off the clutch and the robot.
- Have the clutch calibrated after work on the clutch or the robot. This requires diagnostic equipment.
- Respond to warning signs: a pump that cuts in often, a flashing N or slower gear changes. Acting early is cheaper.
Servicing at RvR Automotive
We know the Dualogic inside out. When servicing, we always check the battery voltage, the reservoir and how the robot works. That way problems surface before they leave you stranded.
Frequently asked questions
Why does my Fiat 500 not engage gears properly after a battery replacement?
After the battery has been disconnected, the system sometimes needs to build up pressure again or re-learn. If the problem persists, have the calibration procedure carried out with diagnostic equipment.
