END PLAY
Measure side gear end play: Insert feeler gauges
180É apart between differential side gear and thrust
washer as shown in (Fig. 132). Measurement taken
here applies to both sides. Side gear end play should
be between 0.025-0.152 mm (0.001-0.006 in.). If clear-
ance is greater than 0.152 mm (0.006 in.), install a
thicker thrust washer (both sides). If clearance is less
than 0.025 mm (0.001), install a thinner thrust
washer (both sides). Refer to (Fig. 133) for available
side gear shim thicknesses.
If end play measurement indicates a thrust washer
change is necessary, the differential must be disas-
sembled. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANS-

SCHEDULES - DESCRIPTION)
The fluid required in this transaxle is Mopart
ATF+4 (Automatic Transmission FluidÐType 9602).
Use of substitute fluids may result in improper
transaxle operation and/or failure.
(1) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(2) Remove transaxle fill plug (Fig. 134).(3) Inspect fluid level. Fluid should be within 1/8º
below fill hole. Add MopartATF+4 (Automatic Trans-
mission FluidÐType 9602) as neccessary.
(4) Install fill plug, ensuring it is properly seated.

over 110C (230ÉF)
> Engine coolant temperature stays low too long -
If engine coolant temperature drops below 65C
(150ÉF), the transmission will disengage EMCC.
Extended operation with the EMCC disengaged
will cause the transmission to overheat.

3.3 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's) are codes stored
by the Transmission Control Module (TCM) that
help us diagnose Transmission problems. They are
viewed using the DRBIIItscan tool.
Always begin by performing a visual inspection of
the wiring, connectors, cooler lines and the trans-
mission. Any obvious wiring problems or leaks
should be repaired prior to performing any diagnos-
tic test procedures. Some engine driveability prob-
lems can be misinterpreted as a transmission prob-
lem. Ensure that the engine is running properly
and that no PCM DTC's are present that could
cause a transmission complaint.
If there is a communication bus problem, trouble
codes will not be accessible until the problem is
fixed. The DRBIIItwill display an appropriate
message. The following is a possible list of causes
for a bus problem:
± open or short to ground/battery in PCI bus
circuit (pin 43).
± internal failure of any module or component on
the bus
Each diagnostic trouble code is diagnosed by
following a specific testing sequence. The diagnostic
test procedures contain step-by-step instructions
for determining the cause of a transmission diag-
nostic trouble code. Possible sources of the code are
checked and eliminated one by one. It is not neces-
sary to perform all of the tests in this book to
diagnose an individual code. These tests are based
on the problem being present at the time that the
test is run.All testing should be done with a
fully charged battery.
If the TCM records a DTC that will adversely
affect vehicle emissions, it will request (via the
communication bus) that the PCM illuminate the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Although theseDTC's will be stored in the TCM immediately as a 1
trip failure, it may take up to five minutes of
accumulated trouble confirmation set the DTC and
illuminate the MIL. Three consecutive successful
OBDII (EURO STAGE III OBD) trips or clearing
the DTC's with a diagnostic tool (DRBIIItor equiv-
alent) is required to extinguish the MIL. When the
TCM requests that the PCM illuminate the MIL,
the PCM sets a DTC P0700(89) to alert the techni-
cian that there are DTC's in the TCM. This must
also be erased in the PCM in order to extinguish the
MIL.
3.3.1 HARD CODE
Any Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) that is set
whenever the system or component is monitored is
a HARD code. This means that the problem is there
every time the TCM checks that system or compo-
nent. Some codes will set immediately at start up
and others will require a road test under specific
conditions. It must be determined if a code is
repeatable (Hard) or intermittent before attempt-
ing diagnosis.
3.3.2 ONE TRIP FAILURES
A One Trip Failure, when read from the TCM, is
a hard OBDII (EURO STAGE III OBD) code that
has not matured for the full 5 minutes. This applies
to codes that will only set after 5 minutes of
substituted gear operation.
3.3.3 INTERMITTENT CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every
time the TCM checks the circuit or function is an a
intermittent code. Some intermittent codes, such as
codes P1792(12), P1767(14), P1768(15), P0725(18),
P1716(19), P1781(21), P1782(22), P1724(24),
P0705(28), P0120(29), P0750(41), P0755(42),
P0760(43), P0765(44), P1793(48), P0715(56),
P0720(57), P1794(58), P1796(70), P1799(74),
P1739(76), P1717(77), and P0600(78) are caused by
wiring or connector problems. However intermit-
tent codes 50 - 54 are usually caused by intermit-
tent hydraulic seal leakage in the clutch and/or
accumulator circuits. Problems that come and go
like this are the most difficult to diagnose, they
must be looked for under the specific conditions
that cause them.
3.3.4 STARTS SINCE SET COUNTER
For the most recent code (Code 1), the Starts
Since Set counter counts the number of times the
vehicle has started since it was last set. The counter
will count up to 255 starts. Note that this code only
applies to the last code set.
When there are no diagnostic trouble codes stored
in memory, the DRBIIItwill display ``NO DTC'S
