GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
1. Use fender, seat and floor covers to keep the vehicle
clean and prevent damage.
2. During disassembly, keep parts in the appropriate order
to facilitate reassembly.
3. Observe the following:
(a) Before performing electrical work, disconnect the
negative (±) terminal cable from the battery.
(b) If it is necessary to disconnect the battery for inspec-
tion or repair, always disconnect the cable from the
negative (±) terminal which is grounded to the ve-
hicle body.
(c) To prevent damage to the battery terminal post, loos-
en the terminal nut and raise the cable straight up
without twisting or prying it.
(d) Clean the battery terminal posts and cable terminals
with a clean shop rag. Do not scrape them with a file
or other abrasive objects.
(e) Install the cable terminal to the battery post with the
nut loose, and tighten the nut after installation. Do
not use a hammer to tap the terminal onto the post.
(f) Be sure the cover for the positive (+) terminal is prop-
erly in place.
4. Check hose and wiring connectors to make sure that they
are secure and correct.
5. Non±reusable parts
(a) Always replace cotter pins, gaskets, O±rings and oil
seals etc. with new ones.
(b) Non±reusable parts are indicated in the component
illustrations by the ºº symbol.
6. Precoated parts
Precoated parts are bolts and nuts, etc. that are coated
with a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
(a) If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or
caused to move in any way, it must be recoated with
the specified adhesive.
(b) When reusing precoated parts, clean off the old
adhesive and dry with compressed air. Then applyIN022±07

3. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the solenoid valves, the accu-
mulators, the clutches and brakes as well as the fluid passages which connect all of these components.
Based on the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system governs the hy-
draulic pressure acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accordance with the ve-
hicle driving conditions.
There are three solenoid valves on the valve body.
The No.1 and No.2 solenoid vales are turned on and off by signals from the ECM to operate the shift
valves and change the gear shift position.
The SL solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to engage or disengage the lock±up clutch
of the torque converter clutch.
The SLN solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to control the engagement speed and
reduce gear shift shock.
