(f) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
(g) Start the engine and check idling RPM.
(h) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake pedal and shift into D p\
osition.
(i) Measure the accumulator back pressure.
(j) With the conditions the same as in (h), ground the other probe of the test\
lead which has one end insertedinto the terminal SLN of the ECM harness side connector, then measure the accumulator back pressure
again.

DTC46No. 4 Solenoid Valve Circuit (For Accumula-
tor Back Pressure Modulation)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No. 4 solenoid valve controls the hydraulic pressure acting on the
brakes and clutches of the planetary gear units when gears are shifted and
performs smooth gear shifting.
The ECM determines optimum operating pressure according to the signals
from the throttle position sensor, vehicle speed sensor and O/D clutch
speed sensor and controls the volume of current flow to the solenoid valve.
The amount of electric current to the solenoid is controlled by the (*) \
duty
ratio of ECM out put signals, causing momentary change to the hydraulic
pressure acting on the clutches during gear shifting.
When the duty ratio is high, the hydraulic pressure acting on the clutch\
es
is low.
(*) Duty Ratio
The duty ration is the ration of the period of continuity in one cycle. For\
example, if A is the period of continuity
in one cycle, and B is the period of non±continuity, then

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1Main throttle position signal check.
C
OK
Hint
PTurn ignition switch ON (Do not start the engine).
Check voltage at the terminal T
T of the DLC2 while grad-
ually depressing the accelerator pedal from the fully
closed position to the fully opened position.
Voltage changes from 0 V to 8 V by stages.
Do not depress the brake pedal during this test. The
voltage will stay at 0 V if depressed.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on matrix chart
(See page AT±66).
2Check throttle position sensor.
See engine troubleshooting section in EG section.
Replace throttle position sensor.
3Check harness and connector between ECM and throttle position sensor (S\
ee page IN±33).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace ECM.

Stop Light Switch Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this circuit is to prevent the engine from stalling, while d\
riving in lockup condition, when
brakes are suddenly applied.When the brake pedal is operated, this switch sends a signal to ECM. Then
the ECM cancels operation of the lockup clutch while braking is in progress\
.

1. Connect voltmeter to the terminals TT and E1 of the
DLC2.
2. Turn ignition switch ON (Do not start the engine).
3. Fully depress the accelerator pedal until the volt- meter indicates 8 V and hold it.
4. Depress and release the brake pedal and check the
voltage.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on matrix chart
(See page AT±66).
3Check harness and connector between ECM and stop light switch (See page\
IN±33).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace ECM.
