(2) Check engine braking.
While running in the 2 position and 2nd gear, release the accelerator pedal and check the engine
braking effect.
(3) Check for abnormal noises during acceleration and deceleration, and for shock at up±shift and
down±shift.
(e) L position test:
Shift into the L position and fully depress the accelerator pedal and check the following points.
(1) Check no up±shift.
While running in the L position, check that there is no up±shift to 2nd gear.
(2) Check engine braking.
While running in the L position, release the accelerator pedal and check the engine braking ef-
fect.
(3) Check for abnormal noises during acceleration and deceleration.
(f) R position test:
Shift into the R position, lightly depress the accelerator pedal, and check that the vehicle moves back-
ward without any abnormal noise or vibration.
CAUTION:
Before conducting this test, ensure that the test area is free from people and obstruction.
(g) P position test:
Stop the vehicle on a grade (more than 5°) and after shifting into the P position, release the parking
brake. Then, check that the parking lock pawl holds the vehicle in place.

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
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
(a) Stall engine speed is low in D position

Engine power output may be insufficient

Stator one±way clutch is not operating properly
HINT: If the value is less than the specified value by 600 rpm or
more, the torque converter could be faulty.
(b) Stall engine speed is high in D position

Line pressure is too low

Clutch No.1 (C
1) slipping

One±way clutch No.3 (F
3) is not operating properly

Improper fluid level

(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)
(4) Shift the lever from the 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
(5) 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 than specified

Line pressure is too low

Clutch No.1 (C
1) worn

One±way clutch No.3 (F
3) is not operating properly
N " R time lag is longer than specified

Line pressure is too low

Clutch No.3 (C
3) worn

Brake No.4 (B
4) worn

One±way clutch No.1 (F
1) is not operating properly

HYDRAULIC TEST
1. PERFORM HYDRAULIC TEST
Measure the line pressure.
NOTICE:

Perform the test at the normal operating ATF (Auto-
matic Transmission Fluid) temperature: 50 to 80°C
(122 to 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 performing the test.

Be careful to prevent SST hose from interfering with
the exhaust pipe.

This check must be conducted after checking and ad-
justing engine.

Perform under condition that A/C is OFF.

When conducting stall test, do not continue more
than 10 seconds.
(1) Warm up the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid).
(2) Lift the vehicle up.
(3) Remove the test plug on the transmission case cen-
ter right side and connect SST.
SST 09992±00095 (09992±00231, 09992±00271)
(4) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4
wheels.
(5) Start the engine and check idling speed.
(6) Keep your left foot pressing firmly on the brake ped-
al 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.

DTC P0717 Input Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This sensor detects the rotation speed of the turbine which shows the input revolution of transmission. By
comparing the input turbine speed signal (NT) with the counter gear speed sensor signal (SP2), the ECM
detects the shift timing of the gears and appropriately controls the engine torque and hydraulic pressure ac-
cording to various conditions, thus, providing smooth gear shift.

DTC P0722 Output Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor SP2 detects the rotation speed of the transmission output shaft and sends signals to the
ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on these signals. An AC voltage is generated in the
speed sensor SP2 coil as the parking gear mounted on the rear planetary gear assy rotates, and this voltage
is sent to the ECM. The parking gear on the rear planetary gear is used as the timing rotor for this sensor.
The gear shift point and lock±up timing are controlled by the ECM based on the signals from this vehicle
speed sensor and the throttle position sensor signal.
