6. Check fluid condition.
If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to AT section for
checking operation of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair of
A/T.
If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to CO-12,
"RADIATOR" , CO-14, "RADIATOR (ALUMINUM TYPE)" .
7. Install the removed dipstick in the A/T fluid charging pipe.
Changing A/T FluidELS000BW
1. Warm up A/T fluid.
2. Stop engine.
3. Drain A/T fluid from drain plug and refill with new A/T fluid.
Always refill same volume with drained fluid.
4. Run engine at idle speed for five minutes.
5. Check fluid level and condition. Refer to MA-38, "
Checking A/T Fluid" . If fluid is still dirty, repeat steps 2
through 5.
Checking Transfer OilELS000BT
Check for oil leakage and oil level.
CAUTION:
Never start engine while checking oil level.
