PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION
Taking into consideration the results of the customer problem analysis, try to reproduce the symptoms of
the trouble. If the problem is that the transmission does not up±shift, does not down±shift, or the shift point
is too high or too low, conduct the following road test to confirm the automatic shift schedule and simulate
the problem symptoms.
ROAD TEST
NOTICE: Do the test at normal A/T fluid operating temp.
50±805C (122±1765F).
1. D POSITION TEST (NORM PATTERN)
Shift into the D position and keep the accelerator pedal
constant at the full throttle valve opening position, and check
the following points:
(a) Check up±shift operation.
Check that 1±2, 2±3 and 3±O/D up±shift takes place, at the
shift point shown in the automatic shift schedule.
(See page AT2±116)
HINT:
(1) O/D Gear Up±shift Prohibition Control.
wCoolant temp. is 605C (1405F) or less.
wIf there is a 10 km/h (6 mph) difference between the set
cruise control speed and vehicle speed.
wO/D main switch is pushed ON.
`(During O/D OFF, indicator light lights up.)
(2) O/D Gear Lock±up Prohibition Control.
wBrake pedal is depressed.
wCoolant temp. is 605C (1405F) or less.
(b) Check for shift shock and slip.
Check for shock and slip at the 1±2, 2±3, and 3±O/ D up±
shifts.
(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 performed very thoroughly as it could also be
due to loss of balance in the, torque converter clutch, etc.

(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 indicated
on the automatic shift schedule.
(See page AT2±116)
(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 195 km/h (121 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 AT2±116)
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.

Problem Possible cause
(a) Stall speed low in D and Rpositions
Engine output may be insufficient.

torque converter clutch could be faulty.
(b) Stall speed high in Dposition
Line pressure too low.
Forward clutch slipping

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±805C (122±1765F).
wBe sure to allow 1 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:
650+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
