Symptom ActionPossible Cause
NoiseThe Engine’s Torsional Vibrations are
Being Transmitted to the Drive ShaftsS At low speeds in fourth gear, vibration can
arise (driving at too low an engine speed)
S Noise is functionally unavoidable; due to toler-
ances. Convince the customer.
NoiseTorque Reaction Strut LooseS Check mounting and repair if necessary.
Shift quality
Notice :
– The assessment of shaft quality is, to a large ex-
tent, an individual, subjective matter. Take careful
note of how the customer describes the complaint
and of the manner in which he or she handles the
vehicle and the controls.
– A sudden deterioration of shift quality may also
be caused by the transaxle selecting an emergency
or substitute program
Test Steps :– Carry out the general checks described in the
automatic transaxle diagnostic information.
– Perform a test drive to answer the following ques-
tions.
In which driving situations does the shift quality
complaint arise?
To which shifts does the complaint apply?
Is the complaint reproducible within a short period,
or has it only occurred sporadically or on a single
occasion?
– Check the oil level and oil quality
– Interrogate the fault memory and read out mea-
surement block data.
Symptom
Possible CauseAction
Shift QualityRapid Pressure Build–up in the ClutchS Operating error (position selected several times
in quick succession).
Jerk When Parking Lock Is ReleasedS Refer to ”Noise” in this section.
Incorrect Electronic Transaxle Control
moduleS Check the data status for transaxle control
module ; refer to ”TCM” in this section.
Emergency/Substitute Program Has
Been ActivatedS For checking and remedial action, refer to
”Emergency/Substitute program” in this sec-
tion.
Accelerator Pedal in Indefinite Position
Between Full Throttle and Kick DownS Persuade customer to choose clearly between
kick down and full throttle
S Check setting according go engine repair in-
struction ; adjust if necessary.
Control Overlap Between to Clutches
During ShiftS Production status
S Convince the customer
Temperature Sensor

stitute program” in this section.
Kick Down Setting IncorrectS Check
A) Floor mat is obstructing accelerator pedal
B) The kick down setting as described in the
Engine Section.

The faults dealt with here concern transaxle functions
such as ”traction” (forwards and reverse) and all type of
shifts. Entries will not always be made in the fault memory.Test Steps :
Perform the general checks according to the automatic
transaxle diagnostic procedure.
– Test drive
– Check oil level and quality
– Interrogate fault memory

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE(DTC) P1850
SOLENOID 1 OUTPUT SHORTED TO GROUND
Circuit Description
The shift solenoids are two identical, normally open elec-
tronic exhaust valves that control upshifts and downshifts
in all forward gear ranges. These shift solenoids work to-
gether in a combination of ON and OFF sequences to con-
trol the line pressure and shift mechanisms(clutches,
brakes).
Solenoid 1 controls the high or low of the line pressure
(flow to each clutch valve) by the operation type (ON/
OFF), i.e. solenoid 1 is ON, line pressure will be low
(87~116psi (6~8bar)), solenoid 1 is OFF, line pressure will
be high (232~261psi (16~18bar)). Solenoid 2 controls the
oil flow to clutch valve E or lock–up clutch valve by the ON/
OFF signal.
The TCM monitors numerous inputs to determine the ap-
propriate solenoid state combination and transaxle gear
tor the vehicle operating conditions.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
S Solenoid wiring shorted to ground.
S No DTC P1851, P1852.S Immediately after the above condition occurs.
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
S The Malfunction Indicator Lamp(MIL) will illuminate.
S The TCM will record operating conditions at the
time the diagnostic fails. This information will be
stored in the Failure Records buffer.
S Adopt Emergency/ Substitute mode and constant
4th gear by hydraulic control.
S After ignition OFF/ON : 3rd gear by hydraulic con-
trol. Possible P, R and N also possible.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
S The MIL will turn OFF when the malfunction has
not occurred after three–ignition cycle.
S A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm
up cycles without a fault.
S Using a scan tool can clear history DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
S When DTC P1850 sets, the possible cause of fault
could be solenoid 1.

FLUID LEVEL SET AFTER SERVICE
1. Add transaxle fluid through the fill cap hole prior to
adjusting the fluid level. The amount of fluid to add
should be based on the type of service done.
Adjustment Notice
S Use ESSO LT 71141 transaxle fluid only.
S Oil pan removed : 4L (4.2 qt)
S Torque converter removed : 2L (2.1 qt)
S Complete overhaul : 6.7L (7.1qt)
S Drain plug removed : 4L (4.2 qt)
2. Check the transaxle fluid level. Refer to ”Transaxle
Fluid Level Checking Procedure” in this section.
3. Add additional fluid through the fill cap hole in 0.5
liter (0.5 quart) increments until the fluid comes out
through the plug hole.
4. Allow the fluid to finish draining out through the plug
hole, then install the fluid level plug.
5. When the fluid level setting procedure is completed,
wipe any fluid from the transaxle case with a rag or
shop towel. Also, check that the fluid fill cap and the
vent tube are properly installed.
REPAIRING FLUID LEAKS
Locating Leaks
General Method
1. Verify that the leak is transaxle fluid.
2. Thoroughly clean the suspected leak area.
3. Operate the vehicle for about 25 kilometers (15
miles) or until the transaxle reaches normal operat-
ing temperature, 88°C (190°F).
4. Park the vehicle over clean paper or cardboard.
5. Turn the engine off and look for fluid spots on the
paper.
6. Make the necessary repairs to correct the leak.
Powder Method
1. Thoroughly clean the suspected leak area.
2. Apply an aerosol–type powder (foot powder) to the
suspected leak area.
3. Operate the vehicle for about 25 kilometers (15
miles) or until the transaxle reaches normal operat-
ing temperature, 88°C (190°F).
4. Turn the engine off.
5. Inspect the suspected leak area and trace the leak
path through the powder to find the source of the
leak.
6. Make the necessary repairs.
