REVISION NOTICE:
December 11, 2020 Rev2: The entire bulletin has been updated.
November 15, 2018 Rev1: The Production Change Confirmation Procedure section has been updated. Any previous printed versions of this bulletin should be discarded.
Introduction:
When completing a transaxle assembly replacement, Engine Control Module (ECM) (SAE term: Powertrain Control Module/PCM) replacement, or ECM (PCM) reprogram, ensure the correct ECM (PCM) software is matched with the transaxle assembly hardware. Some 2018 model year Camry vehicles require different ECM (PCM) software based on the transaxle assembly hardware installed in the vehicle.
NOTICE:
Mismatched transaxle assembly hardware and ECM (PCM) software combinations may result in a harsh shift or shift flare. If this occurs after the original repair, additional ECM (PCM) replacement and reprogramming will be required. This additional ECM (PCM) replacement/reprogramming is NOT covered under warranty.
Use the information in this Service Bulletin to confirm that the correct ECM (PCM) hardware and software are used based on the transaxle assembly part number and serial number.
APPLICABLE WARRANTY:
Warranty coverage is based on the Original Failed Part (OFP).
For additional information regarding warranty coverage and flat rate time, please refer to the applicable TSB, Warranty Policy and Procedures Manual, and/or electronic Flat Rate Manual
