I missed a few sub codes, from my last post
03 Park brake not applied.
04 Output speed not 0 kph/mph.
05 Low transmission oil temperature.
06 High transmission oil temperature.
07 Low engine RPM.
08 High engine RPM.
Code for 2 08 05 is as follows
08 is main code of: Operator aborted calibration procedure
05 is sub code of : Low transmission oil temperature
You should have gotten a code 2 00 05, but maybe you pressed a button first?
It would appear that your transmission temperature was not hot enough. I would recommend trying to get the transmission hotter. I usually do a torque stall (hold the brake while in gear) for about 10 seconds or until the temperature gets to 120 degrees Celsius (warning light will flash). You don't want to overheat the transmission, so don't red line the gauge. I believe the transmission has to be at least 80 degrees Celsius to perform a calibration, and that is your sump temperature. I would warm transmission to at least 95C before trying a calibration.
The gauge on the display shows your torque converter out temperature, which is always hotter than your sump. (you cant see the sump temperature from the display)
You will have to work the transmission into the yellow line multiple times in order to get the sump temperature hot enough. You may have to do this more, depending on your outside temperature. You may need to cover the rads with cardboard too.
Here is how the manual tells you to do it.
Procedure to Heat the Oil
Torque Converter
1. Sit in the seat.
2. Start the engine and run the engine at low idle.
3. To measure the oil temperature with the
instrument cluster:
A. Press the program switch.
B. Press the up count switch to function 007.
C. Return the program switch to the OFF (center)
position.
4. Place the declutch switch in the OFF position.
5. Place the automatic switch in the manual mode
position.
6. Release the parking brake.
7. Move the transmission control lever to Forward
and turn the transmission control lever to 3rd
gear.
8. Increase the engine speed to full throttle and run
the engine at this speed until the instrument
cluster shows a temperature of 115°C (239°F).
9. Decrease the engine speed to low idle and move
the transmission control lever to the Neutral
position.
10. Wait and allow the converter temperature to cool
to 90°C (194°F).
11. Repeat steps 4 through 9 three times until the
temperature of the torque converter oil is 82° to
104°C (180° to 220°F).
