1st through 3rd gears in ªDº position and engine brake func-
tions with overdrive control switch set to ªOFFº.
1st and 2nd gears in ª2º position and engine brake functions
with accelerator pedal released (fully closed throttle). ..... For-
ward clutch or forward one-way clutch slippage
Stall revolution is too high in R position:
+Engine brake does not function in ª1º position. ..... Low &
reverse brake slippage
+Engine brake functions in ª1º position. ..... Reverse clutch slip-

Stall revolution within specifications:
+Vehicle does not achieve speed of more than 80 km/h (50
MPH). ..... One-way clutch seizure in torque converter housing
CAUTION:
Be careful since automatic fluid temperature increases abnor-
mally.
+Slippage occurs in 3rd and 4th gears in ªDº position. ..... High
clutch slippage
+Slippage occurs in 2nd and 4th gear in ªDº position. ..... Brake

4. Set parking brake and block wheels.
+Continue to depress brake pedal fully while line pressure
test is being performed at stall speed.

5. Start engine and measure line pressure at idle and stall speed.
+When measuring line pressure at stall speed, follow the
stall test procedure.
Line pressure: Refer to SDS, AT-473.

JUDGEMENT OF LINE PRESSURE TESTNJAT0027S03
Judgement Suspected parts
At idleLine pressure is low in all positions.+Oil pump wear
+Control piston damage
+Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
+Spring for pressure regulator valve damaged
+Fluid pressure leakage between oil strainer and pressure regulator valve
+Clogged strainer
Line pressure is low in particular
position.+Fluid pressure leakage between manual valve and particular clutch
+For example, line pressure is:
þ Low in ªRº and ª1º positions, but
þ Normal in ªDº and ª2º positions.
Therefore, fluid leakage exists at or around low and reverse brake circuit.
Refer to ªCLUTCH AND BAND CHARTº, AT-23.
Line pressure is high.+Maladjustment of throttle position sensor
+A/T fluid temperature sensor damaged
+Line pressure solenoid valve sticking
+Short circuit of line pressure solenoid valve circuit
+Pressure modifier valve sticking
+Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
+Open in dropping resistor circuit
At stall
speedLine pressure is low.+Maladjustment of throttle position sensor
+Line pressure solenoid valve sticking
+Short circuit of line pressure solenoid valve circuit
+Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
+Pressure modifier valve sticking
+Pilot valve sticking

Road TestNJAT0028DESCRIPTIONNJAT0028S01+The purpose of the test is to determine overall performance of
A/T and analyze causes of problems.
+The road test consists of the following three parts:
1. Check before engine is started
2. Check at idle
3. Cruise test
SAT496G
+Before road test, familiarize yourself with all test procedures
and items to check.
+Conduct tests on all items until specified symptom is found.
Troubleshoot items which check out No Good after road test.
Refer to the following items.
