KICKOOWN SERVO ADJUSTMENTNZlFRAB1. Completely remove all dirt and other materials adhered
G+around the kickdown servo switch.
-i-s-2. Remove the snap ring.
3. Remove the kickdown servo switch.
4. To prevent rotation of the piston, engage the
pawl of the
special tool into the notch of the piston, and using the
adapter, fix the piston as shown in the left.
Caution1. Don’t press in the piston with the special tool.
2.When mounting the adapter on the transaxle case,
tighten it by hand. Don’t apply much torque.
5.Loosen the lock nut to before the V groove of the adjusting
rod, and tighten the special tool (inner) until it contacts the
lock nut.
6. Engage the special tool (outer) on the lock nut.
Rotating the outer cylinder counterclockwise and the inner
cylinder clockwise, lock the lock nut and special tool (inner).7. Attach the torque wrench to the special tool (inner), and
repeat “tightening” and “returning” at a torque of
IO Nm
(7.2
ft.lbs.) two times. Then, tighten it to a torque of 5 Nm
(3.6
ftlbs.). Then, back off the special tool (inner) 2 to 2%
turns.*

Rotating the outer cyliner clockwise and the inner cylinder
counterclockwise, unlock the lock nut and special tool
(inner).Caution
When unlocking the lock, apply equal force to bothtools.
9.Tighten the lock nut by hand until the lock nut contacts the
piston. Then, using the torque wrench, tighten to the
specified torque.
Lock nut: 25-32 Nm (18-23 ft.lbs.)
Caution
If it is rapidly tightened with the socket wrench or
torque wrench, the lock nut and adjusting rod may
rotate together.
10. Remove the special tool which fastens the piston.
Attach the plug to the outlet of the low reverse pressure.

7.Turn the adjustment screw of the regulator valve and adjustso that the line pressure
(kickdown brake pressure) a,becomes the standard value.
When the adjustment screw is turned to the clockwise, the
Lline pressure becomes lower; when it is turned to
counter-clockwise, it becomes higher.

surface of the valve body at the place shown in the figure.
9.Replace the O-ring of the solenoid valve harness grommet
with a new one.

1. Remove parts up to the oil filter in the same way as for
adjustment of the line pressure. The valve body need not
be removed.
