2. SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL CHECK (TEST MODE)
(a) In case of not using TOYOTA hand-held tester:
Check the sensor signal.
(1) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E
1 of DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
(3) Start the engine.
(4) Check that the ABS warning light blinks.
HINT:
If the ABS warning light does not blink, inspect the ABS warning
light circuit (See page DI-325).
(5) Drive vehicle straight forward.
Drive vehicle at a speed faster than 45 km/h (28
mph) for several seconds.
HINT:
The sensor check may not be completed if the front wheels are
spun or the steering wheel is steered during this check.
(6) Stop the vehicle.
(7) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and E
1 of DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
(8) Read the number of blinks of the ABS warning light.
HINT:
See the list of DTC shown on the next page.
If every sensor is normal, a normal code is output (A cycle
of 0.25 sec. ON and 0.25 sec. OFF is repeated).
If 2 or more malfunction codes are identified at the same
time, the lowest numbered code will be displayed 1st.
(9) After doing the check, disconnect the SST from ter-
minals Ts and E
1, Tc and E1 of DLC1, and turn the
ignition switch OFF.

(d) Check the fluid leaks.
Check for leaks in the transaxle.
If there are leaks, it is necessary to repair or replace O-rings,
gasket, oil seals, plugs or other parts.
(e) Inspect and adjust the throttle cable.
(1) Check that the accelerator pedal is fully released.
(2) Check that the inner cable is not slack.
(3) Measure the distance between the outer cable end
and stopper on the cable.
Standard distance: 0 - 1 mm (0 - 0.04 in.)
If the distance is not the standard, adjust the cable by adjusting
nuts.
(f) Inspect and adjust the shift lever position.
When shifting the shift lever from the N position to other
positions, check that the lever can be shifted smoothly
and accurately to each position and that the position indi-
cator is aligned with the correct position.
If the indicator is not aligned with the correct position, carry out
the following adjustment procedures.
(1) Loosen the nut on the shift lever.
(2) Push the control shaft fully downward.
(3) Return the control shaft lever 2 notches to N posi-
tion.
(4) Set the shift lever to N position.
(5) While holding the shift lever lightly toward the R
position side, tighten the shift lever nut.
Torque: 13 N´m (130 kgf´cm, 9 ft´lbf)
(6) Start the engine and make sure that the vehicle
moves forward when shifting the lever from the N to
D position and reverses when shifting it to the R
position.

(g) Inspect and adjust the park/neutral position.
Check that the engine can be started with the shift lever
only in the N or P position, but not in other positions.
If it is not as stated above, carry out the following adjustment
procedures.
(1) Loosen the park/neutral position switch bolt and set
the shift lever to the N position.
(2) Align the groove and neutral basic line.
(3) Hold in position and tighten the bolt.
Torque: 5.4 N´m (55 kgf´cm, 48 in´lbf)
For continuity inspection of the park/neutral position
switch, see page DI-199.
(h) Check the idle speed.
Idle speed: 700 ± 50 rpm
(In N position and air conditioner OFF)
6. MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
(a) Measure the stall speed.
The object of this test is to check the overall performance of the transaxle and engine by measuring
the stall speeds in the D and R positions.
NOTICE:
Do the test at normal operating fluid temperature 50 - 80 °C (122 - 176 °F).
Do not continuously run this test longer than 5 seconds.
To ensure safety, conduct this test in a wide, clear level area which provides good traction.
The stall test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe the condi-
tions of wheels or wheel stoppers outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.
(1) Chock the 4 wheels.
(2) Connect an OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to DLC3.
(3) Fully apply the parking brake.
(4) Keep your left foot pressing firmly on the brake pedal.
(5) Start the engine.
(6) Shift into the D position. Press all the way down on the accelerator pedal with your right foot.
Quickly read the stall speed at this time.
Stall speed: 2,325 - 2,775 rpm
(7) Do the same test in R position.
Stall speed: 2,325 - 2,775 rpm
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
(a) Stall speed low in D and R positions
Engine output may be insufficient
Stator one-way clutch is operating properly
HINT: If more than 600 rpm below the specified value, the torque
converter clutch could be faulty.
(b) Stall speed high in D position
Line pressure too low
Forward clutch slipping
No.2 one-way clutch not operating properly
O/D clutch slipping

2001 AVALON (RM808U) (c) Stall speed high in R position
Line pressure too low
Direct clutch slipping
1st & reverse brake slipping
O/D clutch slipping
(d) Stall speed high in D and R positions
Line pressure too low
Improper fluid level
O/D one-way clutch not operating properly
(b) Measure the time lag.
When the shift lever is shifted while the engine is idling, there will be a certain time lapse or lag before
the shock can be felt. This is used for checking the conditions of the O/D direct clutch, forward clutch,
and 1st & reverse brake.
NOTICE:
Do the test at normal operating fluid temperature 50 - 80 °C (122 - 176 °F).
Be sure to allow 1 minute interval between tests.
Take 3 measurements and take the average value.
(1) Connect an OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to DLC3.
(2) Fully apply the parking brake.
(3) Start the engine and check idle speed.
Idle speed: 700 ± 50 rpm (In N position and air conditioner OFF)
(4) Shift the shift lever from N to D position. Using a stop watch, measure the time from when the
lever is shifted until the shock is felt.
Time lag: N " D Less than 1.2 seconds
In the same manner, measure the time lag for N " R.
Time lag: N " R Less than 1.5 seconds
Evaluation (If N " D time or N " R time lag is longer than the specified):
ProblemPossible cause
N " D time lag is longer
Line pressure too low
Forward clutch worn
O/D one-way clutch not operating
N " R time lag is longer
Line pressure too low
Direct clutch worn
1st & reverse brake worn
O/D one-way clutch not operating properly

7. HYDRAULIC TEST
Measure the line pressure.
NOTICE:
Do the test at normal operation fluid temperature 50 - 80 °C (122 - 176 °F).
The line pressure test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe
the conditions of wheels or wheel stoppers outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.
Be careful to prevent SST's hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
(1) Warm up the ATF.
(2) Remove the test plug on the transaxle case front left side and connect SST (See page AX-33
for the location to connect SST).
SST 09992-00095 (09992-00231, 09992-00271)
(3) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
(4) Connect an OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to DLC3.
(5) Start the engine and check idling speed.
(6) Keep your left foot pressing firmly on the brake pedal and shift into D position.
(7) Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
(8) Depress the accelerator pedal all the way down. Quickly read the highest line pressure when
engine speed reaches stall speed.
(9) In the same manner, do the test in R position.
Specified line pressure:
ConditionD position kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)R position kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
Idling401 - 461 (4.1 - 4.7, 58 - 66)804 - 882 (8.2 - 9.0, 117 - 128)
Stall1,138 - 1,236 (11.6 - 12.6, 165 - 179)1,716 - 1,854 (17.5 - 18.9, 249 - 269)
If the measured pressure is not up to the specified value, recheck the throttle cable adjustment and retest.
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
If the measured values at all positions are higher
Throttle cable out of adjustment
Throttle valve defective
Regulator valve defective
If the measured values at all positions are lower
Throttle cable out of adjustment
Throttle valve defective
Regulator valve defective
Oil pump defective
O/D direct clutch defective
If pressure is low in the D position onlyD position circuit fluid leakage
Forward clutch defective
If pressure is low in the R position only
R position circuit fluid leakage
Direct clutch defective
1st & reverse brake defective

PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
If a normal code is displayed during the diagnostic trouble code check but the trouble still occurs, check the
circuits for each symptom in the order given in the charts on the following pages and proceed to the page
given for troubleshooting.
The Matrix Chart is divided into 3 chapters.
Chapter 1: Electronic circuit matrix chart
Chapter 2: On-vehicle repair matrix chart
Chapter 3: Off-vehicle repair matrix chart
If the instruction ºProceed to next circuit inspection shown in matrix chartº is given in the flow chart for each
circuit, proceed to the circuit with the next highest number in the table to continue the check.
If the trouble still occurs even though there are no abnormalities in any of the other circuits, then check and
replace the ECM.
