CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects a wheel speed and sends the ap-
propriate signals to the ECU. These signals are used to control
of the ABS and VSC system. Each of the front and rear rotors
has 48 serrations.
When the rotors rotate, a magnetic field emitted by a permanent
magnet in the speed sensor generates an AC voltage. Since
the frequency of this AC voltage changes in direct proportion to
the speed of the rotor, the frequency is used by the ECU to de-
tect the speed of each wheel.

to detect mechanical trouble of the shift solenoid valve SL,
valve body, torque converter clutch or automatic transaxle
(clutch, brake or gear etc.).

(3) Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean.
(4) Push it back fully into the pipe.
(5) Pull it out and check that the fluid level is in the HOT
range.
If the level is not within the range, add new fluid.
Fluid type: ATF D-II or DEXRON®III (DEXRON®II)
NOTICE:
Do not overfill.
After filling ATF, check the oil level securely then
drive a vehicle.
(b) Check the fluid condition.
If the fluid smells burnt or is black, replace it.
(c) Replace the ATF.
(1) Remove the drain plug and drain the fluid.
(2) Reinstall the drain plug securely.
(3) With the engine OFF add new fluid through the oil
filler pipe.
Fluid type: ATF D-II or DEXRON®III (DEXRON®II)
Capacity: 4.75 liters (5.0 US qts, 4.2 Imp. qts)
(4) Start the engine and shift the shift lever into all posi-
tions from P to L position and then shift into P posi-
tion.
(5) With the engine idling, check the fluid level. Add
fluid up to the COOL level on the dipstick.
(6) Check the fluid level at the normal operating tem-
perature, 70 - 80 °C (158 - 176 °F), and add as
necessary.

(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.
