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.

7C TROUBLESHOOTING
STEP 4 (ROAD TEST)
This step is performed to check for problems in the various ranges. If these tests show any problems,
adjust or replace by referring to the QUICK DIAGNOSIS CHART and mechanical sections.
Caution
Perform the test at normal ATF operating temperature (50—80°C, 122—176°F).
Gearshift Function Check Items
1. Shift shock must be minimal, and shifting must be smooth.
2. Engine speed must not run away, and the shifting must not be delayed.
3. Transaxle must shift through Di D2 -»• D3 in D range.
4. Transaxle must shift from 3rd in D range to 2nd gear when 2 range is selected.
5. Transaxle must shift from 2nd to 1st when 1 range is selected from 3rd gear in D range.
6. Transaxle must not upshift in 1 range.
7. Transaxle must remain in 2nd gear in 2 range.
8. Transaxle must positively lock in P range.
The transaxle must positively lock when P range is selected while moving at a speed below 4 km/h
(2.5 mph) on level ground. The transaxle must positively lock when set in P range with the vehicle
on a gentle slope and the brakes disengaged.
