SENSOR INSPECTION

Check sensor (pole piece) for damage or bent.

Check sensor for resistance.
Resistance between
terminals : 1.2 ± 1.6 k
at 20C, 68F
Resistance between
terminal and sensor body: 1 M
or more
If any faulty is found, replace.
SENSOR ROTOR INSPECTION

Check rotor serration (teeth) for being missing, damaged or de-
formed.

Turn wheel and check if rotor rotation is free from eccentricity and
looseness.

Check that no foreign material is attached.
If any faulty is found, repair or replace.
INSTALLATION
1) Check that no foreign material is attached to sensor and rotor.
2) Install it by reversing removal procedure.

CAUTION:
Do not pull wire harness or twist more than necessary
when installing rear wheel speed sensor.
3) Check that there is no clearance between sensor and knuckle.

REMOVAL
1) Remove rear axle shaft. Refer to REAR AXLE SHAFT RE-
MOVAL in Section 3E.
2) In order to remove sensor rotor from retainer ring, grind with a
grinder one part of the sensor rotor as illustrated till it becomes
thin.
CAUTION:

Cover vinyl sheet or the like over wheel bearing so that
fine grains from grinding will not enter there.

Be careful not to go so far as to grind the retainer ring.
3) Break with a chisel the thin ground sensor rotor, and it can be re-
moved.
INSTALLATION
1) Press-fit sensor rotor as shown.
NOTE:
Use care not to cause any damage to outside of retainer
ring.
2) Install rear axle shaft. Refer to REAR AXLE SHAFT INSTALLA-
TION in Section 3E.

voltage between ªBº terminal and ªCº terminal.
When placed horizontally: 2 ± 3 V
When placed upright with arrow upward: 3 ± 4 V
When placed upright with arrow downward: 1 ± 2 V
If measured voltage is not as specified, replace sensor with
bracket.
INSTALLATION
1) Connect connector to sensor securely.
2) Install sensor with bracket and parking lever assy onto floor so
that arrow mark directs vehicle forward.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This automatic transmission is a full automatic type with 3-speed plus overdrive (O / D).
The torque converter is a 3-element, 1-step and 2-phase type and is equipped with an electronically controlled
lock-up mechanism. The gear shift device consists of 3 sets of planetary gear units, 3 disc type clutches, 4 disc
type brakes and 3 one-way clutches. The gear shift is done by selecting one of 6 positions (ªPº, ªRº, ªNº, ªDº, ª2º
and ªLº) by means of the select lever installed on the floor. On the shift knob, there is an overdrive (O / D) cut switch
which allows shift-up to the overdrive mode (except at 4L) and shift-down from the overdrive mode. Also, by using
the P / N change switch located on the console box, it is possible to select the gear change timing of 2 modes, nor-
mal and power.

MANUAL ROAD TEST
This test check the gear being used in ªLº, ª2º or ªDº range when
driven with unoperated gear shift control system. Test drive vehicle
on a level road.
NOTE:
Before this test, check diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
1) Disconnect coupler of shift solenoid valves on transmission.
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the hot
exhaust system when disconnecting shift solenoid
valves coupler.
2) With select lever in ªPº, start engine and warm it up.
3) With select lever in ªLº range, start vehicle and accelerate to 20
km/h (12.5 mile/h). Check in this state that 1st gear is being
used.
4) At 20 km/h (12.5 mile/h), shift select lever to 2 range and acceler-
ate to 40 km/h (25 mile/h). Check in this state that 3rd gear is
being used.
5) At 40 km/h (25 mile/h), shift select lever to D range and check
that O/D gear is used when speed is higher than 40 km/h (25
mile/h).
6) After above checks, stop vehicle then engine, and connect shift
solenoids coupler with ignition switch OFF.
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not touch the hot
exhaust system when connecting shift solenoid valves
coupler.
7) Clear DTC with scan tool.
TIME LAG TEST
This test is to check conditions of clutch, reverse brake and fluid
pressure. ªTime lagº means time elapsed since select lever is
shifted with engine idling till shock is felt.
1) With chocks placed before and behind front and rear wheels re-
spectively, depress brake pedal.
2) Start engine.
3) With stop watch ready, shift select lever from ªNº to ªDº range
and measure time from that moment till shock is felt.
4) Similarly measure time lag by shifting select lever from ªNº to ªRº
range.
Specification for ªNº
ªDºLess than 1.2 sec.
time lagªNº
ªRºLess than 1.5 sec.
NOTE:

When repeating this test, be sure to wait at least minute
after select lever is shifted back to ªNº range.

Engine should be warmed up fully for this test.
