Inspections Before Trouble DiagnosisBCS00102
A/T FLUID CHECK
Fluid Leakage and Fluid Level Check
Inspect for A/T fluid leakage and check the A/T fluid level. Refer to AT- 1 4 , "Checking A/T Fluid" .
A/T Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the A/T fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Check ATF and engine oil levels. If necessary, add ATF and oil.
2. Drive vehicle for approximately 10 minutes or until ATF and
engine oil reach operating temperature.
3. Set parking brake and block wheels.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.

It is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.

A/T 4TH GEAR FUNCTION

A/T 4TH GEAR FUNCTIONPFP:31940
DescriptionBCS0013G

This malfunction will not be detected while A/T CHECK indicator lamp is indicating another self-diagnosis
malfunction.

This malfunction is detected when A/T does not shift into fourth gear position or the torque converter
clutch does not lock up as instructed by TCM. This is not caused by electrical malfunction (circuits open or
shorted) but by mechanical malfunction such as control valve sticking, improper solenoid valve operation,
malfunctioning oil pump or torque converter clutch, etc.
CONSULT-II Reference Value BCS0026N
On Board Diagnosis LogicBCS0013H

This diagnosis monitors actual gear position by checking the torque converter slip ratio calculated by TCM
as follows:
Torque converter slip ratio = A x C/B
A: Output shaft revolution signal from revolution sensor
B: Engine speed signal from ECM
C: Gear ratio determined as gear position which TCM supposes
If the actual gear position is much lower than the position (4th) supposed by TCM, the slip ratio will be
much less than normal. In case the ratio does not reach the specified value, TCM judges this diagnosis
malfunction.
This malfunction will be caused when shift solenoid valve B is stuck closed.

Gear positions supposed by TCM are as follows.
In case of gear position with no malfunctions: 1, 2, 3 and 4 positions
In case of gear position with shift solenoid valve A stuck open: 2, 2, 3 and 3* position
In case of gear position with shift solenoid valve B stuck closed: 1, 2, 2 and 1* positions to each gear
position above
*: “A/T 4TH GR FNCTN” is detected.

Diagnostic trouble code “A/T 4TH GR FNCTN” with CONSULT-II is detected when A/T cannot be shifted
to the 4th gear position even if electrical circuit is good.
