IGNITION TIMING
NOTE:
Ignition timing is not adjustable. If ignition timing is out of
specification, check system related parts.
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift lever in
“Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A / T model),
and set parking brake.
INSPECTION
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
Special Tool
(A): 09931-76011 (SUZUKI scan tool)
(B): Mass storage cartridge
(C): 09931-76030 (16 / 14 pin DLC cable)
2) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are switched
off.
4) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3 A / T) (VEHICLE WITH WU-TWC) 7B-3
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The automatic transmission consists of the hydraulic torque converter, electronically controlled 3-speed automatic
transmission, countershaft and differential.
The transmission consists of 2 planetary gears, 2 disk clutches, 1 band brake, 1 disk brake and 1 one-way clutch.
Its operation is controlled by selecting a position from 6 positions (P, R, N, D, 2 and L ranges) manually by means
of the selector lever installed on the compartment floor.
In the D or 2 range, the gear ratio is changed for the 1st, 2nd or 3rd speed (D range only) automatically by engine
control module (electronic control).
For the automatic transmission fluid, DEXRON
-E, DEXRON- or its equivalent must be used. Lubrication
in the automatic transmission is provided by the oil pump which is operated by the engine revolution. Therefore,
the engine should not be stopped even during coasting to obtain proper lubrication.
When it becomes necessary to be towed, front wheels must be raised so as not to roll them.

TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (SHIFT SWITCH)
Being linked with the selector lever, this sensor changes selector
lever positions into electric signals and send them to the engine
control module. The contact points of this sensor for P and N ranges
are also connected with the starting motor circuit.
So when the selector lever is shifted to the P or N range position,
the contact points for P or N range are connected and cause the
starting motor to operate by turning the starter switch ON.
When the selector lever is in any other position than P and N
ranges, the sensor remains OFF and therefore the starting motor
cannot be operated, that is, the engine cannot be started.
Also, as its contact point for R range is connected with the backup
lamp circuit, only when the selector lever is shifted to R range, the
contact point contacts to light the backup lamp.
DIRECT CLUTCH AND 2ND BRAKE SOLENOID
VALVES
These solenoid valves are mounted on the valve body. They are
turned ON and OFF by the signals from the engine control module
and actuate each shift valve (1 – 2 and 2 – 3 valves) so as to control
transmission gear shift.
Shift solenoid-B (2nd brake solenoid valve) operates 1 – 2 shift
valve, and shift solenoid-A (direct clutch solenoid valve) does 2 –
3 shift valve.

OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR (A / T VSS)
The output shaft speed sensor consists of a magnetic core with
magnet and coil. It is mounted on transmission case with 0.6 mm
(0.024 in.) air gap between the core end and countershaft gear
tooth.
While the countershaft rotates, magnetic flux is cut by gear tooth
thus a pulse is generated in the sensor coil according to the speed.
And then, the pulse is transmitted to engine control module as
speed signal.
AUTOMATIC SHIFT DIAGRAM
Automatic shift schedule as a result of shift control is shown below. In case that selector lever is shifted to L range
at a higher than 37 km / h (23 mile / h) (G10 engine model), 40 km / h (25 mile / h) (G13 engine model) speed, 2nd
gear is operated and then down shifts to 1st at a speed lower than that. No up shift is available in L range.

speed and its specified value (i.e., engine speed obtained by PCM through calculation using the throttle open-
ing / gear position and vehicle speed).
DTC DETECTING CONDITION
POSSIBLE CAUSE
While running in “D” range after engine warmed up,
engine speed as compared with vehicle speed is not
within acceptable range.

monitoring.A / T oil pressure control cable maladjusted
Selector cable maladjusted
Mechanical malfunction of shift solenoid valve
(stick or leakage)
Mechanical malfunction in transmission
Torque converter malfunction
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic accident
and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
2) Clear DTC with ignition switch ON and warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
3) Shift selector lever to “D” range.
4) Start vehicle and increase vehicle speed to 40 – 55 km / h ( 25 – 35 mile / h) by depressing accelerator pedal half
a stroke.
5) Keep vehicle at above speed for 5 sec. or longer.
6) Increase vehicle speed to 75 – 90 km / h (45 – 55 mile / h) by depressing accelerator pedal half a stroke and keep
it at that speed for 5 sec. or longer.
7) Stop vehicle and check pending DTC and DTC.

7B-32 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3 A / T) (VEHICLE WITH WU-TWC)
STALL TEST
This test is to check overall performance of automatic transmission
and engine by measuring stall speed at D and R ranges.
Be sure to perform this test only when transmission fluid is at normal
operating temperature (70–80C / 158–176F) and its level is be-
tween FULL HOT and LOW HOT. (Refer to “Fluid level” in this sec-
tion.)
CAUTION:
Do not run engine at stall more than 5 seconds continuous-
ly, for oil temperature may rise excessively high.
1) Install tachometer.
2) Apply parking brake and block vehicle wheels.
3) Start engine with selector lever shifted to P range.
4) Depress brake pedal.
5) Shift selector lever to D range and depress accelerator pedal ful-
ly while watching tachometer. Read engine rpm quickly when it
has become constant (stall speed).
6) Release accelerator pedal immediately after stall speed is
checked.
7) In the same way, check stall speed at R range.
8) Stall speed should be within following specification.
Stall speed: 2,500 – 2,900 r / min
(For both G10 and G13 engine models)
9) Possible causes for out-of-specification stall speed are as fol-
lows. Check each part which is suspected to be the cause.
