AMT-F Transmission Electronic Control Unit (TECU)
Software (MSW) Information – Improvement List
(Change Log) And Explanations For Issues And
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC, Fault Codes) From
Start of Production to Present

Software Release Tables
This document covers ALL North American AMT-F gearbox software. The
Transmission Electronic Control Unit (TECU) software and gearbox
production does not follow an Emissions release schedule like the Engine
Control Module (EMS), so the Production Start Date and Build Date of the
chassis should be used here to find the appropriate software table. Using
a known Main Software (MSW) number, the tables below can be used to
determine any improvements that have been made compared to
previous versions, as well as further changes that have been made in
newer versions.
If the MSW number currently shown to be installed on the vehicle is not
on the table, contact Tech Support if more information is needed.
This document will be updated as new SW becomes available.

Build Date Location
For Volvo truckseBay logo, the Build date can be found on the sticker on the BPillar. The Transmission model is on the B-Pillar on the Vehicle
identification sticker.
