7B TROUBLESHOOTING (G4A-EL)
STEP 2 (PRELIMINARY INSPECTION)
In this step, the fundamental points related to the automatic transaxle are checked. These points must
be kept in the correct condition at all times in order to assure proper operation of the automatic transaxle.
1. Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)
Check ATF level and condition. (Refer to page 7B—71)
2. Selector Lever
Check selector lever position and adjust if necessary. (Refer to page 7B—72)
76G07B-022
3. Throttle cable
(1) Check the inner and outer cable for damage.
(2) Make sure that the accelerator operates
smoothly.
76G07B-023
4. Idle Speed
Check idle speed. (Refer to Section 4B)
5. Tire Inflation Pressure
Check tire inflation pressure. (Refer to Section 12)
76G07B-024
6. Inhibitor Switch
Check the inhibitor switch for operation. (Refer to
page 7B—65)
76G07B-025
7B-22
Page 889 of 1865
TROUBLESHOOTING (G4A-EL) 7B
7. Oil Leakage
Check for oil leakage.
(1) Warm up the ATF.
(2) Apply the parking brake and block the wheels
to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
(3) Shift the selector lever to R range.
(4) Check if oil leaks from the following oil seals
or gaskets.
(5) If oil leaks, replace the oil seal or gasket.
76G07B-026
Check for fluid leaks; the following figure shows the locations where fluid leakage may possibly occur.
1. Oil pan
2. Control valve body cover
3. Oil pump
4. Inhibitor switch
5. Speedometer driven gear
6. Pulse generator
7. Oil filler tube
8. Throttle cable
9. Bearing cover
10. Driveshaft
11. Square head plug
12. Transaxle case
13. Drain plug
14. Oil cooler return pipe
15. Oil cooler outlet pipe
16. Fluid temperature switch
17. Blind plugs

TROUBLESHOOTING (G4A-HL) 7B
TROUBLESHOOTING (G4A-HL)
GENERAL NOTE
In the event of a problem with the automatic transaxle, the cause may be in the engine, power train,
hydraulic control system, or electrical control system.
When troubleshooting, therefore, it is recommended to begin from those points that can be judged
quickly and easily. The recommended troubleshooting sequence is described below.
STEP 4: TIME LAG TEST
Check time lag of oil pressure supply
STEP 6: OIL PRESSURE TEST Check line, throttle, and governor pressures
This step checks conditions surrounding the automatic
transaxle.
This step checks the electrical control system.
• Function of the electrical control system
• Components
This step checks the power train. • Friction element slipping • Torque converter capacity
This step checks operation of the hydraulic control system. • Accumulators • Friction elements slipping • Regulating valves
This step checks functions of the electric control system and
hydraulic control system.
This step checks major points of the hydraulic control system.
• Oil pump • Line pressure control • Throttle pressure control
• Governer pressure control
STEP 5: ROAD TEST Check items on road test
• Shift point • Shift schedule
• Kick-down • Shift shock • Lock-up and overdrive inhibition
By following the above 6 steps, the cause of the problem should be located.
As another guide to faster location of the causes of problems, the Quick Diagnosis Chart is included
at pages 7B—42, 43.
In this chart, a circle is used to indicate the components that might be the cause of trouble for 20
types of problems. It is only necessary to check those components indicated by circles, at each step
of the troubleshooting process, in order to quickly locate the cause of the problem.
