INSTALLATION
1. CHECK TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH INSTALLA-
TION
Using a scale and a straight edge, measure to the distance from
the installed surface to the transaxle housing.
Correct distance: 13.0 mm (0.512 in.) or more
2. TRANSAXLE INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal (See page
AX±19).
HINT:
After installation, check and inspect items as follows.
Fluid level (See page DI±389)

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLEOPERATION ±
AX±4
Power from the engine transmitted to the input shaft via the torque converter clutch is then transmitted
to the planetary gears by the operation of the clutch.
By operation of the brake and one±way clutch, either the planetary carrier or the planetary sun gear
are immobilized, altering the speed of revolution of the planetary gear unit.
Shift change is carried out by altering the combination of clutch and brake operation.
Each clutch and brake operates by hydraulic pressure; gear position is decided according to the throttle
opening angle and vehicle speed, and shift change automatically occurs.
The conditions of operation for each gear position are shown on the following illustrations:

ON±VEHICLE REPAIR
1. REMOVE BATTERY
2. w/ Cruise Control:
REMOVE CRUISE CONTROL ACTUATOR
Remove the 3 bolts and cruise control actuator.
3. DISCONNECT THROTTLE CABLE FROM ENGINE
Disconnect the cable from the throttle linkage.
4. REMOVE PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH
(See page AX±5)
5. REMOVE VALVE BODY
(See page AX±7)
6. REMOVE THROTTLE CABLE
(a) Remove the bolt and retaining plate.
(b) Pull out the cable from the transaxle case.
7. INSTALL THROTTLE CABLE INTO TRANSAXLE
CASE
(a) Make sure to push it in all the way.
(b) Install the retaining plate and bolt.
(c) Install and torque the bolt.
Torque: 5.4 N´m (55 kgf´cm, 48 in.´lbf)
8. INSTALL VALVE BODY
(See page AX±7)
9. IF THROTTLE CABLE IS NEW, STAKE STOPPER OR
PAINT MARK ON INNER CABLE
HINT:
New cables do not have a staked cable stopper.
(a) Bend the cable so there is a radius of about 200 mm (7.87
in.).
(b) Pull the inner cable lightly until slight resistance is felt, and
hold it there.
(c) Stake the stopper, 0.8±1.5 mm (0.031±0.059 in.) from the
end of outer cable.
