STALL TEST PROCEDURE
1. Check A/T fluid and engine oil levels. If necessary, add.
2. Drive vehicle for approx. 10 minutes or until fluid and oil reach
operating temperature.
3. Set parking brake and block wheels.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.
lIt 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.
6. Accelerate to wide open throttle gradually while applying foot
brake.
7. Quickly note the engine stall revolution and immediately release
throttle.
lDuring test, never hold throttle wide open for less than 5
seconds.
Stall revolution:
8. Move selector lever to “N” position.
9. Cool off ATF.
lRun engine at idle for at least one minute.
10. Repeat steps 5 through 9 with selector lever in “2”, “1” and “R”
positions.ATF operating temperature:

In order to pinpoint the possible damaged components, follow the WORK FLOW shown inAT-284, "
Work
Flow"(EXCEPT FOR EURO-OBD) orAT-61, "Work Flow"(EURO-OBD).
NOTE:
Stall revolution is too high in “D”, “2” or “1” position:
lSlippage occurs in 1st gear but not in 2nd and 3rd gears. ..... Low one-way clutch slippage
lSlippage occurs in the following gears:
1st through 3rd gears in “D” position and engine brake functions with overdrive control switch set to
“OFF”.
1st and 2nd gears in “2” position and engine brake functions with accelerator pedal released (fully closed
throttle). ..... Forward clutch or forward one-way clutch slippage
Stall revolution is too high in R position:
lEngine brake does not function in “1” position. ..... Low & reverse brake slippage
lEngine brake functions in “1” position. ..... Reverse clutch slippage
Stall revolution within specifications:
lVehicle does not achieve speed of more than 80 km/h (50 MPH). ..... One-way clutch seizure in torque
converter housing
CAUTION:
Be careful since automatic fluid temperature increases abnormally.
lSlippage occurs in 3rd and 4th gears in “D” position. ..... High clutch slippage
lSlippage occurs in 2nd and 4th gear in “D” position. ..... Brake band slippage
lEngine brake does not function in 2nd and 3rd gears in “D” position, 2nd gear in “2” position, and 1st gear
in “1” position with overdrive control switch set to “OFF”.
Stall revolution less than specifications:
lPoor acceleration during starts. ..... One-way clutch seizure in torque converter

lAlways replace pressure plugs as they are self-sealing
bolts.
LINE PRESSURE TEST PROCEDURE
1. Check A/T fluid and engine oil levels. If necessary, add fluid or
oil.
2. Drive vehicle for approx. 10 minutes or until engine oil and ATF
reach operating temperature.
3. Install pressure gauge to corresponding line pressure port.
4. Set parking brake and block wheels.
lContinue to depress brake pedal fully while line pressure
test is being performed at stall speed.

JUDGEMENT OF LINE PRESSURE TEST
Road TestECS004QT
DESCRIPTION
lThe purpose of the test is to determine overall performance of A/
T and analyze causes of problems.
lThe road test consists of the following three parts:
1. Check before engine is started
2. Check at idle
SAT493G
Judgement Suspected parts
At idleLine pressure is low in all positions.
lOil pump wear
lControl piston damage
lPressure regulator valve or plug sticking
lSpring for pressure regulator valve damaged
lFluid pressure leakage between oil strainer and pressure regulator valve
lClogged strainer
Line pressure is low in particular posi-
tion.
lFluid pressure leakage between manual valve and particular clutch
lFor example, line pressure is:
-Low in “R” and “1” positions, but
-Normal in “D” and “2” positions.
Therefore, fluid leakage exists at or around low and reverse brake circuit.
Refer to “CLUTCH AND BAND CHART”,AT-19, "
CLUTCH AND BAND
CHART".
Line pressure is high.
lMaladjustment of throttle position sensor
lA/T fluid temperature sensor damaged
lLine pressure solenoid valve sticking
lShort circuit of line pressure solenoid valve circuit
lPressure modifier valve sticking
lPressure regulator valve or plug sticking
lOpen in dropping resistor circuit
At stall
speedLine pressure is low.
lMaladjustment of throttle position sensor
lLine pressure solenoid valve sticking
lShort circuit of line pressure solenoid valve circuit
lPressure regulator valve or plug sticking
lPressure modifier valve sticking
lPilot valve sticking
