    Hello to all. I have an Issue and any help would be appreciated:

    On the dash I have "-" ... N will not appear. Only "-" no Gears work.
    P1632 P1627 CAN timeout.

    Car is in Neutral
    Power WHT RED to TCU ...OK
    Key power YELLOW to TCU...OK
    Grounds BOTH ... OK
    ...
    F1 Pressure sensor. KEY on ...4.5 V
    Clutch sensor KEY on ...4.5V
    Actuator Plugs Grey and Blk, Key on (Both)... 4.5V
    >>>>Suggesting TCU 176552 Works!

    NOW, Also

    Jumped F1 Pump 12v+ at Relay runs great. OK
    *****F1 Relay not Priming, with door or When Key on.
    ORANGE WIRE AT F1 RELAY is Trigger Coil for relay.

    All Harnesses Appear Fine all Connections Checked three times. GREEN WHITE wires (CAN LINE) Connected.
    All fuses and All Relays Checked and tri LH and RH behind seats.ple swapped.

    Understanding the F1 relay orange wire
    • Function: The orange wire (pin 85) is the control input to the relay's coil. When it receives a signal from the TCU, the relay's internal switch is activated.
    Please, I need your input. I have no other tricks! Am I missing something here. One Questionable Item is the WINDOW LIFT ECU as the orange wire signal originates at the Drivers Door at striker when opened.

    Could CAN lines be the issue... Any Other Ideas.

    Your Help is appreciated! Thanks in advance

    It doesn't mean all the TCU is working.

    The F1 TCU talks directly to the driver's door switch. There are splices in the switch wiring which send the door signal to the F1 TCU, the Window ECU and the Instrument Panel (for door open indications). If you have door open indications, the switch is working.

    Some internal component of the TCU may be faulty, causing lack of pump operation and loss of gear display. I don't see the CAN Bus causing both of these issues (unless the F1 TCU refuses to run the pump in the absence of a CAN Bus signal???). Make sure the TCU CAN Bus plug 12P is is mated with connector 17G behind the right hand seat.
    17 G shown below:

    (gated car photo... the CAN Bus plug has no connection to the F1 TCU's 12P connector).

    Check the resistance across the pins. Should be 60 ohms on the 17G side.

    Thank you! I will do as instructed. Understood that partial TCU may have error.
    The Green White plug is mated... but I will look at it closely.

    Also,I see Plug 9G (Engine Control Signal) not plugged anywhere... .
    Has (PIN 1 YELLOW Key on 12V). (Pin 2 BRNBLK 0V) (Pin3 BLK 0V) (YELLOWWHITE 0V)
    What is it, and should it be Jumped. Does it do anything or is it for Diagnosis?

    I thought it was a diagnostic plug, but looking at the photo in post #80, it looks like it has wires on both sides.

    The white/yellow (BG) wire is vehicle speed (from the instrument panel)
    The brown/black (MN) wire is tachometer information from the RH Motronic ECU.
    The yellow wire is key power
    The black wire is ground.

    Can't say I've noticed this before

    Here's another photo:

    Disregard... I was looking at the wrong plug (i.e. 19G/22G).

    So I guess 9G must be a loose diagnostic plug.

    Great thread revival. I'm afraid it's all above my pay-grade but I wish you luck and will be watching and waiting for success to be declared!

    I am seeing some renewed interest in the Modena 360 these days on Youtube. I should have done a Youtube Channel back in 2009 of this great Revival.

    My first one the Yellow one was a Gated car. Perfect, but it did not satisfy!
    The Second car, I drove with pride as I had fixed major issues on my own.
    This third car, Is the car I drew on the wall at my moms house... and I love it!

    ...a childhood dream that became reality:). THXENZO, thank you very much Mr Ferrari!
