A no-
drive condition can exist even with correct transmission fluid pressure because of inoperative
clutches or bands. An erratic shift can be located through a series of checks by substituting air
pressure for fluid pressure to determine the location of the malfunction.
Follow the procedure to determine the location of the inoperative clutch or band by introducing air
pressure into the various test plate passages.
NOTE: Use only dry, regulated 276 kPa (40 psi) maximum air pressure.
Apply air to the appropriate passage(s). A dull thud should be felt or heard or movement could be
observed when the clutch component applies. There should be no hissing sound when the component
is applied.
Cover the vent hole in the test plate with a clean, lint- free shop towel to prevent spray when the air is
applied. Plugging the vent hole during testing will result in inaccurate results.
1. Drain transmission fluid and remove the transmission fluid pan.
2. Remove the main control valve body.
3. Install transmission test plate and gasket. Tighten bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb- in).
4. NOTE: Do not apply air to the test plate vent hole.
Apply air to the appropriate clutch port (refer to the Transmission Air Test Plate illustration). A
dull thud may be heard or movement felt when the component is applied or released. If clutch
seals or check balls are leaking a hissing sound may be heard.
If the servos do not operate, disassemble, clean and inspect them to locate the source of the concern.
If air pressure applied to the clutch passages fails to operate a clutch, or operates clutches
simultaneously, inspect the fluid passages in the case.
If air pressure applied to the accumulator fails to operate an accumulator, remove and inspect case
passages and piston.
Clutch Pressure Test
The Clutch Pressure Test will diagnose a low- pressure condition or leakage in a clutch circuit. A
difference of 103 kPa (15 psi) or more between the clutch pressure and line pressure will prevent a
normal shift.
1. CAUTION: Pressure gauges affect the shift quality of the transmission. Care must
be taken not to accelerate or decelerate rapidly. Possible transmission failure can result.
Attach 0- 2068 kPa (0- 300 psi) pressure gauges to the line pressure tap and the appropriate
clutch pressure tap according to Band and Clutch Application Chart A&B. Gauges must be
accurate enough to distinguish a 103 kPa (15 psi) difference. (If this test is done in conjunction
with a control pressure test, pressure gauges will be attached to all pressure taps.) Have
sufficient flexible hose available to read the gauges in the vehicle.
2. Drive the vehicle. When pressure is applied to the clutch, note the difference between the line pressure gauge and the corresponding clutch pressure gauge.
3. If the difference in pressures is less than 103 kPa (15 psi), the corresponding clutch circuit does not have a pressure loss. The gauges on the line pressure tap and appropriate clutch pressure
tap can be switched to confirm that gauge calibration differences are not the cause. Klj . 6 ba
