AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFT DIAGRAM
Automatic shift schedule as a result of shift control is shown below. In case that select lever is shifted to L at a higher
than 52 km / h or 33 mile / h speed for G16 engine (45 km / h or 28 mile / h for J20 engine, 55 km / h or 34 mile / h for
H25 engine), 2nd or 3rd gear is operated and then down shifts to 1st at a speed lower than that. No up shift is
available in L.
The same as, the select lever is shifted to 2 at a higher than 102 km/h (64 mile/h) speed for G16/J20 engines (105
km / h or 65 mile / h for H25 engine), 3rd gear is operated and then down shifts to 2nd at a speed lower than that.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS
This vehicle is equipped with an electronic transmission control system, which control the automatic shift up and
shift down timing, TCC operation, etc. suitably to vehicle driving conditions.
PCM (ECM) has an On-Board Diagnosis system which detects a malfunction in this system and abnormality of
those parts that influence the engine exhaust emission.
When diagnosing a trouble in transmission including this system, be sure to have full understanding of the outline
of ªOn-board Diagnostic Systemº and each item in ªPrecaution in Diagnosing Troubleº and execute diagnosis ac-
cording to ªAUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLEº given below to obtain correct result
smoothly.
NOTE:
There are two types of ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM de-
pending on vehicle specifications. The type of system for ve-
hicle being serviced can be identified by whether equipped
with monitor connector or not.
