Case IH 14113 – Transmission Controller (TECU / MTA CCM): Transmission Configuration Error

Fault code 14113 indicates a transmission configuration error, typically arising after a transmission software update. The transmission controller locks out the 19th gear until a full transmission calibration is completed to recognize and learn the F4/19th gear clutch parameters.

1. 1

   Verify the tractor's recent service history to confirm if a transmission software update was recently performed.

2. 2

   Confirm that the tractor is physically equipped with a 19-speed transmission (as opposed to an 18-speed or CVT).

3. 3

   Check the diagnostic display for any other active transmission fault codes (such as clutch solenoid or speed sensor faults) that could prevent a successful calibration.

4. 4

   Ensure the transmission/hydraulic fluid is warmed up to normal operating temperature, as cold fluid will cause the calibration process to fail or calibrate incorrectly.

1. 1

   Prepare tractor for calibration

   Park the tractor on a level surface, apply the parking brake, and ensure the transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature.

2. 2

   Enter diagnostic/calibration mode

   Enter the tractor's diagnostic/calibration mode (often referred to as the "H" menu). On many Case IH models, this is accessed by holding the upshift and downshift buttons simultaneously while starting the engine.

3. 3

   Navigate to transmission calibration

   Navigate through the display menu to the transmission calibration segment (e.g., H1, H2, etc.).

4. 4

   Initiate calibration

   Initiate the transmission calibration. The tractor will remain stationary, but you will be required to hold the upshift button as the controller cycles through each clutch pack.

5. 5

   Allow controller to measure clutches

   The controller will engage each clutch (including the F4/19th gear clutch) and measure the electrical current (mA) required to cause a slight drop in engine RPM.

6. 6

   Complete calibration process

   Continue holding the button and following the on-screen prompts until all directional and speed clutches are calibrated.

7. 7

   Save data and test drive

   Once the calibration is complete, the TECU will recognize the 19th gear. Turn the key off to save the calibration data, then restart the tractor and test drive to verify that 19th gear is accessible and code 14113 is cleared.
