Fail-Safe Mode
Fail-Safe mode is intended to prevent unsafe conditions that could be caused by
the failure of a component or the controller, where the transmission could lock
up or enter too low of a gear and cause engine damage or loss of vehicle
control. Fail-safe mode disables the transmission solenoids and puts the
transmission into a default “limp” mode that will still allow the vehicle to be
driven home. Fail-safe mode is controlled by a combination of diagnostic
firmware and hardware in the Quick 6 controller that is designed to mitigate
unsafe failure conditions whenever possible.
