GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This automatic transmission is a full automatic type with 3-speed plus overdrive (O / D).
The torque converter is a 3-element, 1-step and 2-phase type and is equipped with an electronically controlled
lock-up mechanism. The gear shift device consists of 3 sets of planetary gear units, 3 disc type clutches, 4 disc
type brakes and 3 one-way clutches. The gear shift is done by selecting one of 6 positions (ªPº, ªRº, ªNº, ªDº, ª2º
and ªLº) by means of the select lever installed on the floor. On the shift knob, there is an overdrive (O / D) cut switch
which allows shift-up to the overdrive mode (except at 4L) and shift-down from the overdrive mode. Also, by using
the P / N change switch located on the console box, it is possible to select the gear change timing of 2 modes, nor-
mal and power.

PCM to A / T does not agree with actual A / T gear posi-
tion even though solenoid valve is electrically in good
condition.
(A / T gear position is calculated based on engine
speed signal and vehicle speed sensor signal.)

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic accident
and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Clear DTC, pending DTC and freeze frame data in PCM memory by using scan tool and check fuel level meter
indication is 1 / 4 or more.
3) Start engine, warm it up to normal operating temperature and shift transfer lever to ª2Hº or ª4Hº range.
4) Increase vehicle speed with D range, and check that gear position changes from 1st to 2nd, 3rd and 4th in that
order as vehicle speed increases, referring to ªGear Shift Diagramº in this section.
5) Stop vehicle and check pending DTC and DTC by using scan tool.

1. Ignition key with built-in transponder 1. Data link connector (DLC)
HOW TO REGISTER IGNITION KEY
Register the ignition key with a built-in transponder in Immobilizer
Control Module by using the following procedure.
1) Prepare Suzuki scan tool (TECH 1A kit and cartridge for immobi-
lizer control system).
2) With ignition switch OFF, connect Suzuki scan tool to data link
connector (DLC) located on underside of instrument panel at
driver's seat side.
Special Tool
(A): 09931-76011 (Tech 1A)
(B): Immobilizer cartridge
(C): 09931-76030 (16 / 14-pin DLC cable)
NOTE:
For operation procedure of Suzuki scan tool, refer to Suzuki
scan tool operator's manual.
3) Prepare ignition key with a built-in transponder. And then turn
ignition switch ON by using it.
4) Number of Transponder codes for ignition key with a built-in
transponder that can be registered in Immobilizer Control Mod-
ule is limited to 4. If needed, clear all Transponder codes for igni-
tion key with a built-in transponder that have been registered in
Immobilizer Control Module by executing the ªCLR. TRANS
COD (CLEAR TP CODE)º command in the SELECT MODE
menu by using Suzuki scan tool.
NOTE:
When ªCLR. TRANS COD (CLEAR TP CODE)º command is
executed with the malfunction indicator lamp (the lamp for
vehicles equipped with the monitor coupler) ON or the im-
mobilizer indicator lamp (the lamp for vehicle not equipped
with the monitor coupler) ON, it remains ON even after
execution of that command is over. It will start flashing
when the ignition switch is turned OFF once and then
turned ON after some seconds.
5) Using Suzuki scan tool, register Transponder code in Immobiliz-
er Control Module by executing ªENT. TRANS COD (ENT. TP
CODE)º command in SELECT MODE menu.
6) [Vehicle equipped with monitor coupler]
Make sure that malfunction indicator lamp lights when ignition
switch is turned OFF once and then ON.
[Vehicle not equipped with monitor coupler]
Make sure that immobilizer indicator lamp lights when ignition
switch is turned OFF once and then ON.
