DIFFICULTY IN COMPLETING TC-SST PLAUSIBILITY CHECK — 2008-2014 Lancer Evolution, Lancer/Lancer Sportback RALLIART. After replacing a Mechatronics assembly (valve body) or clutch assembly in a TC-SST, remember these three requirements for completing the Plausibility Check during Teach-in;

1. Engage the parking brake,

2. Run the engine until transmission temperature is at least 104° F, and

3. Depress the brake pedal for the duration of the Plausibility Check or it will not complete.

The ECU must see brake pedal input before the check can start. It's a built in safety mechanism to prevent the vehicle moving forward as the gears are shifted during the check.
