SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
Oil Leakage
Notice :
– Careful localization of leakage points may make it
possible to prevent incorrect or cost–intensive re-
pairs.
Test Steps :– Thoroughly clean the transaxle, engine, and sur-
rounding area(using a steam jet, for example).
– To locate leakage, use a suitable identifying spray
or similar product.
– Depending on the amount of leakage, take the
car for a short or a longer test drive – It may prove
sufficient to place the car on a hoist and run the
engine at idle speed to trace the leak.
– If possible, determine exactly which type of oil is
escaping.

and/or noise.
Transaxle Control Module (TCM)
The transaxle control module (TCM) is an electronic de-
vice which monitors inputs to control various transaxle
functions including shift quality and transaxle sensors,
switches, and components to process for use within its’
control program. Based on this input information, the TCM
controls various transaxle output functions and devices.
Data Link Connector (DLC)
The data link connector (DLC) is a multiple cavity connec-
tor. The DLC provides the means to access serial data
from the TCM to aid in powertrain diagnosis. The DLC al-
lows the technician to use a scan tool to monitor various
systems and display diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
The DLC connector is located within the driver’s compart-
ment, directly below the steering column.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
TRANSAXLE DESCRIPTION
The new automatic transmission is an electronically con-
trolled 4–speed automatic transmission with Lock–up
mechanism.
The transmission is mainly composed of the torque con-
verter with lock up clutch, newly developed 4–speed plan-
etary gear unit, the hydraulic control system and the elec-
tric control system.
ELECTRONICAL COMPONENTS
Transmission Control Module (TCM)
The TCM primarily controls shift points and lockup en-
gagement. It is located on the driver side under the instru-
ment panel.
The transmission is controlled by an electronic shift sys-
tem. The Transmission Control Module (TCM) processes
input signals. From the information received, the TCM
controls the transmission hydraulic system.
The electronic shift system consists of the following :
S Transmission control module (TCM)
S Shift solenoids (SS1 and SS2)
S Pressure control solenoid (PCS)
S Lockup solenoid
S Input shaft speed (ISS) sensor
S Output shaft speed (OSS) sensor
S Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor
S Transmission Range (TR) Switch
Transmission Range (TR) Switch
Transmission Range (TR) Switch transmits the informa-
tion which range includes shift lever of A/T to Starter and
TCM.
S It is possible for TR switch to start an engine in only
”P” and ”N”. (Prevention of reckless driving)
S TR switch makes backup lamp turn on when re-
versing.
S It is used for TR switch to shift control.
TR switch transmits the information by combination of
starter and reverse circuit to vehicle side directly without
TCM.
Shift Solenoid No 1,2 (SS1, SS2)
2 shift solenoids are installed directly in the valve body.
The solenoids operate of ON and OFF by the control sig-
nal from TCM. Combinations of 2 solenoids, SS1 and SS2
changes gear ranges.
AISIN AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE 5A2 – 219
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
Timing Solenoid
Timing solenoid is installed directly in the valve body. The
solenoid operates of ON/OFF by the control signal from
TCM. The solenoid change timing valve of inside the valve
body, operate hydraulic control with apply and drain of for-
ward clutch.
Lock–Up Solenoid
Lock–up solenoid is installed in the valve body. It recieves
control signal from TCM.
Lock–up solenoid operates the lock–up valve inside the
valve body and controls the torque converter lockup func-
tion.
Pressure Control Solenoid (PCS)
The pressure control solenoid (PCS) is located inside the
valve body and regulates the transmission’s fluid pressure
system. It is internally grounded in the TCM and operates
when it is supplied with battery voltage from the TCM,
through the PCS and back to the TCM.
The battery voltage is controlled by a varying current from
the TCM.
The strength of the current is a function of the throttle posi-
tion.
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT)
Sensor
TFT sensor provides TCM with information on the trans-
mission fluid temperature.
The TCM uses information from the TFT sensor to calcu-
late the gear shift points and to engage the torque convert-
er lockup function.
Input Shaft Speed (ISS) Sensor
ISS sensor is located on the upper position of the transaxle
and detects A/T input speed from the rotation number of
the direct clutch drum.
They transmit to TCM as a signal.

6E – 20ISTEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
CAUTION : To ensure the energy–absorbing action of
the steering column, it is important to use only the
specified screws, bolts, and nuts, tightened to the
specified torque.
In addition to the steering function, the steering column
provides safety and security.
The energy–absorbing column is designed to compress in
a front–end collision to lessen the chance of driver injury.
The ignition switch and the lock are mounted on the col-
umn, allowing the ignition and steering operations to be
locked to inhibit theft of the car.
The column levers trigger the turn signals, the headlight
beams, and the windshield washer and wipers.The tilt steering column uses telescopic function to allow
the steering wheel to tilt up and down in and out. This en-
ables the driver to adjust the steering wheel to a comfort-
able position.
Notice : Apply a thin coat of lithium grease to all friction
points when reassembling.
The column may be disassembled and reassembled easi-
ly.IGNITION KEY REMINDER
The ignition key reminder alerts the driver that the key is
still in the ignition when the driver attempts to exit the ve-
hicle.
An internal switch in the ignition lock cylinder supplies bat-
tery voltage to the reminder chime module when all of the
following conditions are true:
S The key is in the ignition switch.
S The ignition is OFF.
S The driver’s door is open.
For information on removal and installation of the reminder
chime module, refer to Section 9E, Instrumentation/Driver
Information.
SUPPLEMENTAL INFLATABLE RESTRAINTS (SIR) 8B – 89
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
HANDLING, INSTALLATION AND
DIAGNOSIS
S Airbag modules should not be subjected to temper-
ature above 65 degrees Celsius(149 degrees Fahr-
enheit).
S An airbag and SDM should not be used if it has
been dropped from height of 0.9 meters(3 feet) or
greater.
S When an SDM is replaced, it must be oriented with
the arrow on the SDM pointing toward the front of
the vehicle.
S It is very important for the SDM to be installed flat
on the mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle’s
longitudinal axis.
S To avoid setting diagnostic trouble codes(DTCs), do
not apply power to the SIR unless all components
are connected or a diagnostic chart request it.
S The SIR Diagnostic System Check must be the
starting point of any SIR diagnostics. The SIR Diag-
nostic System Check will verify proper airbag indi-
cator operation and will lead you to correct chart to
diagnose any SIR malfunctions. Bypassing these
procedures may result in extended diagnostic time
incorrect parts replacement.
REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS
REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT
CAUTION : Any repairs to the vehicle’s structure
must return it to the original production configu-
ration. Deployment requires replacement of
SDM, the inflator modules and a dimensional in-
spection of the steering column.
S If any SIR components are damaged, they must be
replaced. If SIR components mounting points are
damaged, they must be repaired or replaced.
S Never use SIR parts from another vehicle. This
does not include remanufactured parts purchased
from an authorized source.
S Do not attempt to service the SDM, the clock spring
or other airbag modules, these items must be re-
placed if they are defective.
S Verify the part number of replaced airbag modules.
Some inflator modules look identical but contain
different internal components.
