LINE PRESSURE TEST
Purpose of this test is to check operating conditions of each part by
measuring fluid pressure in fluid pressure line. Line pressure test
requires following conditions.
Automatic fluid is at normal operating temperature (70 to 80C /
158 ± 176F).
Fluid is filled to proper level (between FULL HOT and LOW HOT
on dipstick).
1) Apply parking brake securely and place checks against wheels.
2) Attach oil pressure gauge to fluid pressure check hole in trans-
mission case.
Special Tool
(A): 09925-37810
CAUTION:
After attaching oil pressure gauge, check that not fluid
leakage exists.
3) Depress foot brake fully, run engine at idle and stall and then
check fluid pressure in ªDº or ªRº range.
CAUTION:
Do not continue running engine at stall speed longer than
5 seconds.

STALL TEST
This test is to check overall performance of automatic transmission
and engine by measuring stall speed at ªDº and ªRº ranges. Be sure
to perform this test only when transmission fluid is at normal operat-
ing temperature and its level is between FULL and LOW marks.
CAUTION:
Do not run engine at stall more than 5 seconds continu-
ously, for fluid temperature may rise excessively high.
After performing stall test, be sure to leave engine running
at idle for longer than 30 seconds before another stall test.
1) Apply parking brake and block wheels.
2) Install tachometer.
3) Start engine with select lever shifted to ªPº.
4) Depress brake pedal fully.
5) Shift select lever to ªDº and depress accelerator pedal fully while
watching tachometer. Read engine rpm quickly when it has be-
come constant (stall speed).
6) Release accelerator pedal immediately after stall speed is
checked.
7) In the same way, check stall speed in ªRº range.

MANUAL ROAD TEST
This test check the gear being used in ªLº, ª2º or ªDº range when
driven with unoperated gear shift control system. Test drive vehicle
on a level road.
NOTE:
Before this test, check diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
1) Disconnect coupler of shift solenoid valves on transmission.
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the hot
exhaust system when disconnecting shift solenoid
valves coupler.
2) With select lever in ªPº, start engine and warm it up.
3) With select lever in ªLº range, start vehicle and accelerate to 20
km/h (12.5 mile/h). Check in this state that 1st gear is being
used.
4) At 20 km/h (12.5 mile/h), shift select lever to 2 range and acceler-
ate to 40 km/h (25 mile/h). Check in this state that 3rd gear is
being used.
5) At 40 km/h (25 mile/h), shift select lever to D range and check
that O/D gear is used when speed is higher than 40 km/h (25
mile/h).
6) After above checks, stop vehicle then engine, and connect shift
solenoids coupler with ignition switch OFF.
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the hot
exhaust system when connecting shift solenoid valves
coupler.
7) Clear DTC with scan tool.
TIME LAG TEST
This test is to check conditions of clutch, reverse brake and fluid
pressure. ªTime lagº means time elapsed since select lever is
shifted with engine idling till shock is felt.
1) With chocks placed before and behind front and rear wheels re-
spectively, depress brake pedal.
2) Start engine.
3) With stop watch ready, shift select lever from ªNº to ªDº range
and measure time from that moment till shock is felt.
4) Similarly measure time lag by shifting select lever from ªNº to ªRº
range.
Specification for ªNºªDºLess than 1.2 sec.
time lagªNºªRºLess than 1.5 sec.
NOTE:
When repeating this test, be sure to wait at least minute
after select lever is shifted back to ªNº range.
Engine should be warmed up fully for this test.
