In Drive 2 and Manual 2, transmission drive is via the
input shaft and forward clutch cylinder. The elements
of the transmission function as follows;
The C2 clutch is applied to drive the forward sun
gear.
The forward sun gear drives the short pinion anti-
clockwise.
The short pinion drives the long pinion clockwise.
The B1 band is applied holding the reverse sun
gear stationary therefore the long pinion walks
around the reverse sun gear taking the internal ring
gear and output shaft with it in a clockwise or
forward direction.
The C4 clutch is applied to bypass the 3-4 OWC
and provide engine braking on overrun.
Control
To maintain this arrangement in the steady state sole-
noids and valves are activated as follows;
Solenoid S1 is switched OFF. S2 is switched ON.
Drive (line pressure) oil from the manual valve en-
gages the C2 clutch.
When S1 switches OFF, S1 oil pressure, which is
derived from line 500 pressure, moves the 3-4 shift
valve to the left. At the same time S1 oil is directed
to the 1-2 shift valve which moves the valve to the
second gear position.
2nd oil (line pressure) from the 1-2 shift valve is di-
rected to the band apply regulator valve, and to
the 2-3 shift valve.
The band apply feed regulator valve supplies 2nd
oil (regulated to line pressure multiplied by the valve
ratio) to the Band Apply Feed (BAF) circuit.
Band apply feed oil is directed to;
- The outer apply area of the front servo
- The 1-2 shift valve to provide an exhaust port
when the transmission is shifted to first gear
- The 3-4 shift valve for use when the transmission
is shifted into fourth gear
Drive (line pressure) is routed through the 3-4 shift
valve to apply the C4 clutch.

of the transmission function as follows;
The C2 clutch is engaged to drive the forward sun
gear.
The C1 clutch is engaged to drive the planet carrier.
The short pinion drives the long pinion clockwise.
The forward sun gear and the planet carrier are driv-
en clockwise at the same speed therefore there is
no relative motion between the sun gear and the
pinions.
The ring gear and output shaft are driven in a clock-
wise or forward direction at input shaft speed.
The C4 clutch is applied to bypass the 3-4 OWC
and provide engine braking on overrun.
Control
To maintain this arrangement in the steady state sole-
noids and valves are activated as follows:
Solenoid S1 is switched OFF. S2 is switched OFF.
With S1 and S2 switched OFF, the 2-3 and 3-4 shift
valves are held in the third gear position by line
500 pressure.
The 1-2 shift valve is held in the third gear position
by S1-S2 oil pressure.
2nd oil (line pressure) from the 1-2 shift valve is di-
rected to the band apply feed regulator valve and
to the 2-3 shift valve.
The band apply feed regulator valve supplies 2nd
oil (regulated to line pressure multiplied by the valve
ra-tio) to the Band Apply Feed (BAF) circuit.
Band apply feed oil is directed to;
- The outer apply area of the front servo
- The 1-2 shift valve to provide an exhaust port
when the transmission is shifted to first gear
- The 3-4 shift valve for use when the transmission
is shifted into fourth gear
2nd oil at the 2-3 shift valve is directed to the 3rd
oil circuit.

DIAGNOSIS
BASIC KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED
You must be familliar with some basic electronics to
use this section of the Service Manual. They will help
you to follow diagnostic procedures.
Notice: Lack of the basic knowledge of this transmis-
sion when performing diagnostic procedures could re-
sult in incorrect diagnostic performance or damage to
transmission components. Do not, under any circum-
stances, attempt to diagnose a transmission problem
without this basic knowledge.
Notice: If a wire is probed with a sharp instrument
and not properly sealed afterward, the wire will corrode
and an open circuit will result.
Diagnostic test probes are now available that allow
you to probe individual wires without leaving the wire
open to the environment. These probe devices are
inexpensive and easy to install, and they permanently
seal the wire from corrosion.
Special Tools
You should be able to use a Digital Volt Meter (DVM),
a circuit tester, jumper wires or leads and a line
pressure gauge set. The functional check procedure
is designed to verify the correct operation of electronic
components in the transmission. This will eliminate the
unnecessary removal of transmission components.
FUNCTIONAL CHECK
PROCEDURE
Begin with the Functional Check Procedure which pro-
vides a general outline of how to diagnose automatic
transmission. The following functional check procedure
will indicate the proper path of diagnosing the transmis-
sion by describing the basic checks and then referenc-
ing the locations of the specific checks.
Check the fluid level according to the Fluid Level
Service Procedure.
Check the transmission fluid leak.
Check if the transmission fluid is not burnt by smell.
Notice: The specific fluid used in this transmission
turns brown during normal operation. Brown fluid
does not indicate a transmission fault.
Ensure that the transmission is not in Limp Home
Mode (LHM).
Check the battery terminals and the earth connec-
tions for corrosion or looseness.
Check that the cooler flow is not restricted.
Check all electrical plug connections for tightness.
Use on-board diagnostic tool or a scan tool to see
if any transmission trouble codes have been set.
DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES
Refer to the appropriate “Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC)” information and repair the vehicle as
directed. After repairing the vehicle, perform the
road test and verify that the code has not set again.
Perform the Electrical/Garage Shift Tests.
Perform the Road Test Procedure in this section.
Inspect the oil and check for metal or other contami-
nants in the oil pan.
TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
SERVICE PROCEDURE
This procedure is to be used when checking a concern
with the fluid level in a vehicle. A low fluid level will
result in slipping and loss of drive/ reverse or delay on
engagement of drive/ reverse when the vehicle is cold.
The vehicle is first checked for transmission diagnostic
messages on the scan tool. If the oil level is low, it is
possible to register a vehicle speed signal fault.
The vehicle is to be test driven to determine if there is
an abnormal delay when selecting drive or reverse, or
loss of drive. One symptom of low fluid level is a
momentary loss of drive when driving the vehicle around
a corner. Also when the transmission fluid level is low,
a loss of drive may occur when the transmission fluid
temperature is low.
If there is no loss of drive when the vehicle is driven
warm and a vehicle speed signal fault is registered,
then fluid should be added to the transmission.
When adding or changing transmission fluid use only
Castrol TQ 95 automatic transmission fluid. The use of
incorrect fluid will cause the performance and durability
of the transmission to be severely degraded.
Fluid Level Diagnosis procedure
1. If the vehicle is at operating temperature allow the
vehicle to cool down for two hours, but no greater
than four hours. Or if the vehicle is at cool status,
start the engine and allow the engine to idle for
approximately 5 minutes or, if possible, drive the
vehicle for a few kilometers. This will allow the
transmission to be within the correct temperature
range. Transmission fluid level should be checked
at temperature 50 - 60 °C (82 - 140 °F).
Caution: Removal of the fluid filler plug when
the transmission fluid is hot may cause injury if
fluid drains from the filler hole.
2. With the brake pedal pressed, move the gear shift
control lever through the gear ranges, pausing a
few seconds in each range. Return the gear shift
control lever to P (Park). Turn the engine OFF.
3. Park the vehicle on a hoist, inspection pit or similar
raised level surface. The vehicle must be control
level to obtain a correct fluid level measurement.
