(c) Check for abnormal noise and vibration.
Run at the D position lock±up or O/D gear and check for ab-
normal noise and vibration.
HINT: The check for the cause of abnormal noise and vibra-
tion must be made with extreme care as it could also be due
to loss of balance in the propeller shaft, differential, torque
converter clutch, etc.
(d) Check kick±down operation.
While running in the D position, 2nd, 3rd and O/D gears,
check to see that the possible kick±down vehicle speed limits
for 3 " 2 and O/D " 3 kick±downs conform to those indi-
cated on the automatic shift schedule.
(See page AT1±96)
(e) Check for abnormal shock slip at kick±down.
(f) Check the lock±up mechanism.
(1) Drive in D position, O/D gear, at a steady speed (lock±up
ON) of about 172 km/h (107 mph).
(2) Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the
engine RPM does not change abruptly.
If there is big jump in the engine RPM there is no lock ±up.
3. 2 POSITION TEST (NORM PATTERN)
Shift into the 2 position and, while driving with the accelerator
pedal held constantly at the full throttle valve opening posi-
tion, check on the following points:
(a) Check up±shift operation.
Check to see that the 1 " 2 up±shift takes place and that the
shift point conforms to the automatic shift schedule.
(See page AT1±96)
HINT: There is no O/D up±shift and lock±up in the 2 position.
(b) Check engine braking.
While running in the 2 position and 2nd gear, release the ac-
celerator pedal and check the engine braking effect.

TIME LAG TEST
When the shift lever is shifted while the engine is idling, there will be a certain time lapse or lag before the
shock can be felt. This is used for checking the condition of the O/D direct clutch, forward clutch, direct
clutch, and first and reverse brake.
NOTICE:
wDo the test at normal operating fluid temp. 50±80
°C (122±176 °F).
wBe sure to allow a one minute interval between tests.
wTake 3 measurements and take the average value.
MEASURE TIME LAG
(a) Fully apply the parking brake
(b) Start the engine and check idle speed.
Idle speed:
700 + 50 rpm (In N position and air conditioner OFF)
(c) Shift the shift lever from N to D position. Using a stop watch, measure the time it takes from shifting the
lever until the shock is felt.
In same manner, measure the time lag for N " R.
Time lag:
N
" D Less than 1.2 seconds
N
" R Less than 1.5 seconds
