HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the solenoid valves and the
clutches and brakes, as well as the fluid passages which connect all of these components. Based on the
hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system governs the hydraulic pressure
acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accordance with the vehicle driving condi-
tions.
There are three solenoid valves on the valve body. These solenoid valves are turned on and off by signals
from the ECM to operate the shift valves. These shift valves then switch the fluid passages so that fluid
goes to the torque converter clutch and planetary gear units.
Except for the solenoid valves, the hydraulic control system of the electronically controlled transmission
is basically the same as that of the fully hydraulic controlled automatic transmission.

w LINE PRESSURE
Line pressure is the most basic and important pressure used in the automatic transmission, because it is
used to operate all of the clutches and brakes in the transmission.
If the primary regulator valve does not operate correctly, line pressure will be either too high or too low. Line
pressure that is too high will lead to shifting shock and consequent engine power loss due to the greater
output required from the oil pump; line pressure that is too low will cause slippage of clutches and brakes,
which will, in extreme cases, prevent the vehicle from moving. Therefore, if either of these problems are
noted, the line pressure should be measured to see if it is within standard.
w THROTTLE PRESSURE
Throttle pressure is always kept in accordance with the opening angle of the engine throttle valve. This
throttle pressure acts on the primary regulator valve and, accordingly, line pressure is regulated in re-
sponse to the throttle valve opening.
In the fully hydraulic controlled automatic transmission, throttle pressure is used for regulating line pressure
and as signal pressure for up±shift and down±shift of the transmission. In the electronically controlled
transmission, however, throttle pressure is used only for regulating line pressure. Consequently, improper
adjustment of the transmission throttle cable may result in a line pressure that is too high or too low. This,
in turn, will lead to shifting shock or clutch and brake slippage. AT1±6

PRECAUTION
PRECAUTIONS
When working with FIPG material, you must observe the following.
wUsing a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all the old packing (FIPG) material from the
gasket surfaces.
wThoroughly clean all components to remove all the loose material.
wClean both sealing surfaces with a non±residue solvent.
wApply the seal packing in an approx. 1 mm (0.04 in.) bead along the sealing surface.
wParts must be assembled within 10 minutes of application. Otherwise, the packing (FIPG)
material must be removed and reapplied.
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution in the IN sec-
tion.

PRELIMINARY CHECK
1. CHECK FLUID LEVEL
HINT:
wDrive the vehicle so that the engine and transmission
are at normal operating temp..
Fluid temp. 70±80 °C (158±176 °F)
wOnly use the COOL range on the dipstick as a rough
reference when the fluid is replaced or the engine does
not run.
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the parking brake.
(b) With the engine idling and the brake pedal depressed, shift
the shift lever into all positions from P to L position and return
to P position.
(c) Pull out the transmission dipstick and wipe it clean.
(d) Push it back fully into the pipe.
(e) Pull it out and check that the fluid level is in the HOT range.
If the level is at the low side, add fluid.
Fluid type:
DEXRON[ II
NOTICE: Do not overfill.
2. CHECK FLUID CONDITION
If the fluid smells burnt or is black, replace it.
3. REPLACE TRANSMISSION FLUID
(a) Remove the drain plug and drain the fluid.
(b) Reinstall the drain plug securely.
(c) With the engine OFF, add new fluid through the oil filler pipe.
Fluid type:
DEXRON[ II
Capacity:
Dry fill: 7.2 liters (7.6 US qts, 6.3 Imp. qts)
Drain and refill: 1.6 liters (1.7 US qts, 1.4 Imp. qts)
(d) Start the engine and shift the shift lever into all positions from
P to L position and then shift into P position.
(e) With the engine idling, check the fluid level. Add fluid up to the
COOL level on the dipstick.
(f) Check the fluid level at the normal operating temperature
70±80 5C (158±176 5F) and add as necessary.
NOTICE: Do not overfill.
4. CHECK FLUID LEAKS
Check for leaks in the transmission.
If there are leaks, it is necessary to repair or replace O±rings,
seal packings, oil seals, plugs or other parts. AT1±42

HYDRAULIC TEST
MEASURE LINE PRESSURE
NOTICE:
wDo the test at normal operating fluid temp. 50±80 5C (122±176 5F).
wThe line pressure test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe the
conditions of wheels or wheel stoppers outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.
wBe careful to prevent the oil pressure gauge hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
(a) Warm up the transmission fluid.
(b) Remove the test plug on the transmission case left side and connect the oil pressure gauge (SST). SST
09992±00094 (Oil pressure gauge)
HINT: Connecting the oil pressure gauge will be made easier by moving LH side heat insulator aside.
(c) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
(d) Start the engine and check idling RPM.
(e) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake pedal and shift into D position.
(f) Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
(g) Press the accelerator pedal all the way down. Quickly read the highest line pressure when engine speed
reaches stall speed.
(h) In the same manner, do the test in R position. AT1±48

ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The electronic control system for the A340E automatic transmission provides extremely precise control of
the gear shift timing and lock±up timing in response to driving conditions as sensed by various sensors
located throughout the vehicle and in response to the engine's running condition.
At the same time, the ECM control reduces vehicle squat when the vehicle starts out and gear shift shock.
The electronic control system is also equipped with a self diagnosis system which diagnoses malfunctions
for the vehicle to continue functioning when a malfunction occurs.
