MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
1. PERFORM MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
(a) Measure the stall speed.
The object of this test is to check the overall performance of the transmission and engine by measuring
the stall speeds in the D positions.
NOTICE:

Perform the test at the normal operating ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature 50
to 80°C (122 to 176°F).

Do not continuously run this test for longer than 5 seconds.

To ensure safety, do 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 all 4 wheels.
(2) Connect a hand±held tester to DLC3.
(3) Fully apply the parking brake.
(4) Using your left foot, keep the brake pedal firmly depressed.
(5) Start the engine.
(6) Shift into the D position. Press all the way down on the accelerator pedal with your right foot.
(7) Quickly read the stall speed at this time.
Stall speed: 2,200 ± 150 rpm

(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 condition of the direct clutch, forward clutch, and
1st and reverse brake.
NOTICE:

Perform the test at the normal operating ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature: 50
to 80°C (122 to 176°F).

Be sure to allow for a 1 minute interval between tests.

Perform the test three times, and measure the time lags. Calculate the average value of the three
time lags.
(1) Connect a hand±held tester to DLC3.
(2) Fully apply the parking brake.
(3) Start and warm up the engine and check idle speed.
Idle speed: approx. 700 rpm (In N position and A/C OFF)

INITIALIZATION
1. RESET MEMORY
NOTICE:

Perform the RESET MEMORY (AT initialization) when replacing the automatic transmission
assy or ECM.

The RESET MEMORY can be performed only with the Hand±held tester.
HINT:
The ECM memorizes the condition that the ECT controls the automatic transmission assy and engine assy
according to those characteristics. Therefore, when the automatic transmission assy, engine assy, or ECM
has been replaced, it is necessary to reset the memory so that the ECM can memorize the new information.
Reset procedure is as follows.
(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(d) Turn the hand±held tester main switch on.
(e) Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD IIº.
(f) Perform the reset memory procedure from the ENGINE menu.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
When troubleshooting On±Board Diagnostic (OBD II) vehicles,
the vehicle must be connected to the OBD II scan tool (comply-
ing with SAE J1987). Various data output from the vehicle's
ECM can then be read.
OBD II regulations require that the vehicle's on±board comput-
er illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) on the
instrument panel when the computer detects a malfunction in:
1) The emission control system/components
2) The powertrain control components (which affect vehicle
emissions)
3) The computer
In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
prescribed by SAE J2012 are recorded in the ECM memory.
If the malfunction does not reoccur in 3 consecutive trips, the
MIL turns off automatically but the DTCs remain recorded in the
ECM memory.
To check DTCs, connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connec-
tor 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. The scan tool displays DTCs, the
freeze frame data and a variety of the engine data.
The DTCs and freeze frame data can be erased with the scan
tool (See page DI±565).
NORMAL MODE AND CHECK MODE
The diagnosis system operates in ºnormal modeº during normal
vehicle use. In normal mode, º2±trip detection logicº is used to
ensure accurate detection of malfunctions. ºCheck modeº is
also available to technicians as an option. In check mode,
º1±trip detection logicº is used for simulating malfunction symp-
toms and increasing the system's ability to detect malfunctions,
including intermittent malfunctions.
2±TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
When a malfunction is first detected, the malfunction is tempo-
rarily stored in the ECM memory (1st trip). If the ignition switch
is turned OFF and then ON again, and the same malfunction is
detected again, the MIL will illuminate.

FREEZE FRAME DATA
Freeze frame data records the engine conditions (fuel system,
calculated load, engine coolant temperature, fuel trim, engine
speed, vehicle speed, etc.) when a malfunction is detected.
When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine
if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed
up or not, if the air/fuel ratio was Lean or Rich, and other data
from the time the malfunction occurred.
The hand±held tester records freeze frame data in five different
instances: 1) 3 times before the DTC is set, 2) once when the
DTC is set, and 3) once after the DTC is set. These data can be
used to simulate the vehicle's condition around the time when
the malfunction occurred. The data may help find the cause of
the malfunction, or judge if the DTC is being caused by a tempo-
rary malfunction or not.
DLC3 (Data Link Connector 3)
The vehicle's ECM uses the ISO 15765±4 for communication
protocol. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with
SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 15765±4 format.
HINT:
Connect the cable of the hand±held tester to the DLC3, turn the
ignition switch ON and attempt to use the hand±held tester. If
the screen displays UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE, a
problem exists in the vehicle side or the tester side.
If the communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If the communication is still impossible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool it-
self. Consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruc-
tion manual.

DTC CHECK / CLEAR
1. CHECK DTC
DTCs which are stored in the ECM can be displayed with the
hand±held tester or generic OBD II scan tool.
These scan tools can display pending DTCs and current DTCs.
Some DTC aren't stored if the ECM doesn't detect a malfunc-
tion during consecutive driving. However, the detected mal-
function during once driving is stored as pending DTC.
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the Controller Area Net-
work Vehicle Interface Module (CAN VIM). Then connect
the CAN VIM to the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3).
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED
OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES (or PENDING
CODE).
(d) Confirm the DTCs and freeze frame data and then write
them down.
(e) See page DI±573 to confirm the details of the DTCs.
NOTICE:
When simulating a symptom with the scan tool to check for
DTCs, use normal mode. For codes on DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLE CODE CHART subject to º2±trip detection log-
icº, perform the following actions.
Turn the ignition switch OFF after the symptom is simulated
once. Then repeat the simulation process again. When the
problem has been simulated twice, the MIL illuminates and the
DTCs are recorded in the ECM.
2. CLEAR DTC
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the CAN VIM. Then con-
nect the CAN VIM to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED
OBD II / DTC INFO / CLEAR CODES and press YES.
