General Note
1. If there is more than one malfunction, the code
numbers will be displayed on the tester one by one
in a numerical order. In the case of malfunctions,
55, 06, and 63, the code numbers are displayed
in an order of 06, 55, then 63. The display is as
shown.

2. The hold indicator flashes to indicate the same pat-
tern as the buzzer of the EC-AT Tester when the
EC-AT service connector is grounded.
When the EC-AT service connector is not ground-
ed, the indicator flashes in a constant frequency
while a malfunction is occurring and goes out
if
the
malfunction recovers. However, the warning code
is memorized in the EC-AT control unit.

Fail-safe program Proces--\Out sing -v puts
The EC-AT control unit has a built-in fail-safe func-
tion for the throttle sensor, the pulse generator, and
the 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4 shift solenoid valves.
If a malfunction occurs, the EC-AT control unit will
control operation of the remaining components ac-
cording to a preset fail-safe program.
The vehicle may still be driven, although the driv-
ing performance will be slightly affected.

4. The memory of warning codes is canceled by dis-
connecting the negative battery terminal for ap-
prox. five seconds.

STEP 3 (SIGNAL INSPECTION)
In this step, the input and output signals are checked
with the EC-AT Tester.
The Tester checks for proper operation of the vari-
ous switches and sensors in the EC-AT system. It also
checks the control unit for output of the various con-
trol signals. Powertrain slippage is also checked.
Inspection Procedure
1. Disconnect the connectors from the EC-AT con-
trol unit.
2. Connect the adaptor harness between the control
unit and the connectors.
3. Turn the ignition switch and main switch ON.
4. Check indication of the respective light or digital
display in each condition, referring to the indica-
tion table below.

STEP 7 (ROAD TEST)
This step is performed to inspect for problems at the various ranges. If these tests show any problems,
adjust or replace by referring to the electronic system component or mechanical sections.
Caution
Perform the test at normal ATF operating temperature (50—80°C, 122—176°F).
D Range Test
Shift point, shift pattern, and shift shock
1. Shift the selector lever to D range and select the Power mode.
2. Accelerate the vehicle with half and full throttle valve opening.
Note
Throttle sensor voltage of the EC-AT Tester represents the throttle valve opening.
3. Check that 1-2, 2-3 and 3-OD up-shifts and downshifts and lock-up are obtained. The shift points
must be as shown in the D range (Power) shift diagram.
Note
a) Drum speed (rpm) of the EC-AT Tester represents the shift point.
b) Vehicle speed of the EC-AT Tester and speedometer and vehicle speed on a chassis
roller may not meet the specified shift pattern because of tire size. Therefore, check
the shift points with the Drum speed.
c) There is no lock-up when the coolant temperature is below 72°C (162°F).
d) There is no overdrive when the cruise control is operating and there is a 3 km/h (1.9
mph) difference between the pre-set cruise speed and vehicle speed, or set or resume
switch is ON.
e) There is no lock-up when the brake pedal is depressed.
4. Check the up-shifts for shift shock or slippage in the same manner.
5. While driving in OD, shift the selector lever to S range and check that 4-3 downshift immediately
occurs, then decelerate and check that engine braking effect is felt in only 3rd gear.

76G07B-035
Noise and vibration
Drive the vehicle in OD (lock-up), OD (no lock-up), 3rd (Hold) and check for abnormal noise or vibration.
Note
Abnormal noise and vibration can also be caused by the torque converter, drive shaft, or
differential. Therefore, checking of cause must be made with extreme care.
Kick-down
Drive the vehicle in OD, 3rd and 2nd gears and check that kick-down occurs for OD->3, OD->2, OD->1,
3->2, 3-+1, 2-> 1, and the shift points are as shown in the shift diagram.
S Range Test
Shift pattern
1. Shift the selector lever to S range and select the Economy mode.
2. Accelerate the vehicle and check that 1-2 and 2-3 up-shifts and down-shifts are obtained, and that
no overdrive and no lock-up are obtained.
Note
a) Inspections of shift shock and shift point are not necessary because these are the same
as those of the D Range Test.
b)ln S range, the shift patterns for Economy and Power modes are the same.
c) Shift points are the same as those of the D range (Power) shift diagram.
3. While driving in S range (Economy mode) and 3rd gear, select the Hold mode and check that 3rd
gear is held until the 3-2 down-shift point as shown in the S range (Hold) shift diagram is achieved.
4. Accelerate the vehicle with S range (Hold mode) and check that 2nd gear is held.
