Massey Ferguson 04.00.8F – TRANS (Transmission Control Module): Issue With Tyre Size Configuration (TRANS)
Issue description
This code indicates a software or parameter mismatch regarding the tire size programmed into the tractor's control system. The controller has detected that the tire size configuration is either missing, out of acceptable range, or corrupted, which can affect transmission shifting, speed readouts, and four-wheel-drive/differential lock engagement.

Check the cause
Verify physical tire size by checking the sidewalls of the front and rear tires currently installed on the tractor.
Check terminal settings by accessing the Datatronic terminal (or equivalent dashboard display) to see what tire size is currently inputted.
Check for recent power loss events such as a dead battery, battery disconnect, or software flash, which can cause the Transmission Control Module to lose its programmed parameters.
Repair steps
Connect diagnostic tool
Connect the AGCO EDT (Electronic Diagnostic Tool) to the tractor's diagnostic port.
Navigate to module
Navigate to the TRANS (Transmission) module.
Access menu
Access the Configuration / Parameterization menu.
Select parameter
Select the Tyre Size Configuration parameter.
Input tire size
Input the correct tire size values that match the physical tires on the machine.
Save configuration
Save the configuration to the Transmission Control Module.
Clear fault code
Clear the 04.00.8F fault code from the system.
Cycle ignition
Cycle the ignition key (turn off, wait 30 seconds, turn back on) and verify that the code does not return.
Parts you might need
(1)Transmission Control Module (TRANS) / Transmission Controller
Only required if the module repeatedly drops its configuration memory and fails to save the tire size. Varies heavily by specific tractor model and transmission type.
