MEASURE ACCUMULATOR BACK PRESSURE
NOTICE:
wDo the test at normal operating fluid temp. 50±805C (122±1765F).
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 rear right 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 the RH side head insulator aside.
(c) Remove the passenger side floor carpet and ECM protector.
(d) Connect the SST (check harness A) between ECM and connector of vehicle wire harness.
SST: 09990±01000
(e) Install one test lead probe into the terminal SLN of the ECM wire harness side connector and take care
not to ground the other test lead probe.
HINT: Prepare test leads which are connected with an approximately 8 W light bulb. AT2±50

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The fluid temp. sensor converts fluid temp. into resistance values which is input into the ECM.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Check A/T fluid temp. sensor.
Check harness and connector between A/T fluid temp. sensor and ECM
(See page IN±30).
Replace A/T fluid temp. sensor.
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check sensor resistance
Remove A/T fluid temp. sensor.
Measure resistance between terminals of A/T fluid
temp. sensor at 20°C (68°F) and 110°C (230°F).
Resistance:
20°C (68°F): Approx. 12.08 k
11 0°C (230°F): Approx. 0.78 k
20°C (68°F) and 110°C (230°F).
Check and replace ECM.

Check if A/T fluid temp. is too hot.
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Check ªMANUº mode indicator light when pat-
tern select switch is pushed in to ON.
ºMANUº mode indicator light comes on and stays
on.
If the A/T fluid temp. becomes too hot, the ªMANUº
mode indicator light flashes for several seconds and
goes off. The driving mode then automatically
changes from Manual mode to the Normal mode.
Measure voltage between the terminal M of the
ECM connector and body ground when the pattern
select switch is set to the MANU (MANUAL) posi-
tion and NORM (NORMAL) position.
Check A/T fluid temp. sensor (See page AT2±70).
Check voltage between terminal M of ECM connector and body ground.
Replaces A/T fluid temp. sensor.
1. Connect the Check Harness A to the ECM
(See page EG±510).
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on
matrix chart (See page AT2±64).
The ECM uses the Normal pattern signal if the
Manual signal is not input.
