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

HYDRAULIC TEST
MEASURE LINE PRESSURE
NOTICE:
wDo the test at normal operating fluid temp. 50±805C (122±1765F)
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 side.
(c) Chock the 4 wheels.
(d) Fully apply the parking brake.
(e) Start the engine and check idling speed.
(f) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake pedal and shift into D position.
(g) Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
(h) Fully depress the accelerator. Quickly read the highest line pressure when engine speed reaches stall
speed.
NOTICE: Release the accelerator pedal and stop test if the wheels begin to rotate before the engine
speed reaches specified stall speed.
(i) In the same manner, do the test in R position. AT2±48
