MECHANICAL COMPONENTS
Torque Converter
The converter consists of the impeller, the turbine wheel,
the reaction member (stator) and the oil to transmit torque.
The impeller, which is driven by the engine, causes the oil
in the converter to flow in a circular pattern. This oil flow
meets the turbine wheel, where is direction of flow is de-
flected. At the hub, the oil leaves the turbine and reaches
the reaction member (stator), where it is once again de-
flected so that it reaches the impeller at the correct angle
of flow.
The reversal effect generates movement in the stator, the
reaction torque then amplifies the turbine torque.
The ratio between turbine torque and torque is referred to
as torque multiplication.
The greater the difference is speed between the pump and
turbine, the greater the torque multiplication; it is at its
highest when the turbine is at a standstill. The higher the
speed of the turbine, the lower the torque multiplication.
When the turbine speed reaches about 85%of the pump
speed, torque multiplication=1, i.e. the turbine torque
equivalent to pump torque.
The stator, which bears against the housing via the free-
wheel, is then rotating freely in the oil flow and the free-
wheel is over–come. From this point onwards, the con-
verter acts as a straightforward fluid coupling.

Torque Converter Lock–up Clutch (TCC)
The converter lock–up clutch is a device, which eliminates
converter slip and thus helps to improve fuel consumption.
The previous control principle for converter lock–up clutch
operation has been replaced by a controlling function on
the 4 HP 16. The converter lock–up clutch is engaged and
released in a controlled manner. During the controlled
phase, a slight speed difference between the impeller and
turbine wheel is established. This ensures that the en-
gine’s rotating vibration is not phased on to the transaxle.
The result is optimum shift quality.
An electronic pressure–regulating valve determines pres-
sure regulation of the lock–up converter clutch’s piston.
When open (conversion range), the oil pressure behind
the converter lock–up clutch piston and in the turbine zone
is equal. The direction of flow is through the turbine shaft
and through the space behind the piston, to the turbine
chamber.

Shift Elements: Multi–disc Clutches and
Brakes
The purpose of the shift elements is to perform shifts un-
der load without the tractive flow being interrupted.
The shift elements consist of the following.
1. Snap Ring
2. Steel Disc
3. Lined Disc
4. Cup Spring
5. Baffle Plate
6. Disc Carrier
7. Input Shaft
8. Oil Supply to Dynamic Pressure Equalizer
9. Oil Supply to Clutch
10. Cylinder
11. Piston
12. Spring Disc
The shift elements are engaged hydraulically. The pres-
surized oil reaches the space between the cylinder and
piston, as a result the discs are compressed. The clutch/
brake is engaged when the oil pressure drops, the cup
spring acting on the piston presses the piston back into its
initial position. The clutch/brake is now released again.
Depending on the gear, the multi–disc clutches B and E
supply the engine torque to the planetary gear train, with
multi–disc brakes C, D and F directing the torque into the
housing.The dynamic pressure at clutches B and E is equal : i.e.
the dynamic pressure in front of and behind the piston is
equal. This equalizing effect is achieved in the following
way.
The space between the baffle plate and piston is filled with
unpressurized oil. A dynamic pressure dependent on the
engine speed builds up. The space between pressure also
builds up. However, there is simultaneously a static pres-
sure, which causes the clutch to engage. If the static pres-
sure is relieved, the cup spring is able to force the piston
back into its original position.
The advantages of this dynamic pressure equalization
are:
S Reliable clutch opening in all speed ranges
S Smoother shifts.
Parking Lock
The parking lock is actuated via the selector lever when in
position P. It protects the vehicle mechanically against roll-
ing away.
The stop plate is actuated by the selector shaft, which is
permanently connected to the selector lever via a pull
cable. The parking lock pawl on the parking lock gear is
welded onto the lateral shaft of the transaxle and this pre-
vents the drive wheels from turning.
This blocks the driven wheels.

WIRING HARNESS AND
CONNECTOR INSPECTION
1. Reproducing test
Perform symptom simulation test on the basis of
user’s condition. Refer to the below factors.
S Occuring–road condition, speed, accelerate,
reduce speed, straight, curve, air temperature,
weather, etc.
2. Inspect the connection condition of between con-
nectors.
Inspect the failure between connectors by visual
check and contact pressure check.
S Connector disconnected
S Terminals rusted
S Terminals deformation or loose fit
3. Inspect the Continuity of the wiring harness.
Disconnect both ends connector of wiring har-
ness, measure resistance between one connec-
tor terminal and other.
S Normal : 1Ω or less (No open circuit)
S Abnormal : Ω (Open circuit)
Notice : Measure the resistance while slightly shaking
wire harness vertically and horizontally.
It is rare case wiring harness is broken at the middle of it,
and most cases occur at the connector.
4. Inspect the short circuit of the wiring harness.
Disconnect the connectors of the wiring harness
at both ends, measure resistance between the
applicable terminals of the connector and body
earth.
S Normal : 1M Ω or higher (No short circuit)
S Abnormal : Low resistance (Short circuit)Measure the resistance between one terminal
an another terminal in the same connector.(Ex-
cept between power supply or between earth).
S Normal : 1M Ω or higher (No short circuit)
S Abnormal : Low resistance (Short circuit)
Notice : Measure the wiring harness while slightly shaking
vertically and horzontally.
It is usual case of the short circuit that wiring harness is
crowded body and clamping failure.
5. Temporary connection failure of the connector.
It is thought that temporally the connection fail-
ure of the connector is cause when you can not
decide cause of DTC detection.
Therfore make sure to inspect and clean the
connector and delete the memorized DTC.
ROAD TEST
Road test is to diagnosis failure symptom accurately and
check the failure symptom after procedure.
Confirm whether below condition before road test. Oil tem-
perature is hot condition (50°C (122°F) ~ 80°C (176°F)).
1. D range test
S Check for up–shift, down–shift, kick–down and
lock–up operation at the shift point shown in the
shift schedule.
S Check for engine brake operation.
S Check for Check abnormal shock, noise and
harshness.
2. ”P” range test
Park vehicle on a gradient (more than 5°), shift
into the ”P” range and release parking brake.
Then, check to see no moving vehicle by opera-
tion of parking lock pawl.

FUNCTION CHECK
Confirm whether below condition before function check.
S Oil temperature is hot condition (50°C (122°F) ~
80°C (176°F)).
S Switch of A/C and light etc are off.
Stall Test
Stall test’ purpose is to inspect overall performance of A/T
and engine by measuring the stall speed in ”D” and ”R”
range.1. Chock 4 Wheels and apply parking brake fully, lock
vehicle perfectly.
2. Fully pressed on foot brake pedal with left foot.
3. Shift into ”D” and ”R” range, fully press on accelera-
tor pedal with right foot.
Quickly read stall speed at this time.
Standards
2390 ± 150 rpm
Notice : Do not continuously run longer than 5 sec be-
cause of extreme increasing oil temp.
Make sure to keep interval for more than 1 min between
stall tests.

Time Lag Test
Time lag is time till slightly shock can be felt when shift le-
ver is shifted ”N” ”D” and ”N” ”R” while engine idling.
Time lag test can inspect hydraulic condition and clutch/
brake condition.
1. Chock 4 Wheels and apply parking brake fully, lock
vehicle perfectly.
2. Measure time lag by using stop watch from moment
when shift lever is shifted in ”N” ”D” and ”N”
”R” until moment slightly shock can be felt.”N D”less than 0.7 sec
”N” ”R”less than 1.2 sec
Notice : Make sure to take 3 measurement and take the
average value.
Make sure to keep interval for more than 1 min between
time lag tests. (That purpose is to remove clutch/brake
pressure was left unfinished.)
