Custom Fire Apparatus after the fire truck is reversed, the transmission control module (TCM) may fail to achieve the 4th gear transmission lockup needed to initiate the water pump.
The short version
Custom Fire Apparatus, Inc. reported a problem with the automatic transmission control module (tcm/pcm/tecm). Here is what owners need to know.
After the fire truck is reversed, the transmission control module (TCM) may fail to achieve the 4th gear transmission lockup needed to initiate the water pump.
Failure to achieve 4th gear lock up may result in unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, the water pump will not operate which can increase the risk of injury in an emergency.
Take it to a dealer — they will update the TCM software, free of charge.
