5A1 – 56IZF 4 HP 16 AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
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.
Symptom
Possible CauseAction
Transaxle Oil Leak-
ageOil Pump(Torque Converter Sealing)S Visually check torque converter sealing.
S Replace the converter sealing as described in
the transaxle repair on the vehicle service.
Crankshaft Sealing RingS Check whether engine oil or TFT is leaking out.
S If leak is engine oil, replace the sealing ring as
described in the engine repair instruction.
Torque ConverterS Visual check.
S Fit an exchange converter as described in the
repair instruction.
Oil Content Too HighS Check oil level(TFT and axle oil) as described
in this chapter.
S Correct oil level, and recheck after a test drive.
Notice : Comply with the measuring procedure (fill-
ing procedure) in the repair instruction. Check the oil
level at the overflow plug adjust to proper level if nec-
essary.
O–ring at Bolt Head Damaged or Miss-
ingS Check O–ring.
S Replace O–ring as described in the repair in-
struction.
Shaft SealS Visually check the shaft seal.
S Replace the sealing ring as described in the
repair instruction.
Hose Clamp LooseS Check to ensure that the hose clamp fits tightly.
S If necessary, retighten clamp.
Oil Pan Gasket Not Installed ProperlyS Check to see if the gasket was positioned
properly.
S Install gasket properly as described in the re-
pair instruction.
Oil Pan Gasket DamagedS Check the gasket visually.
S Replace gasket as described in the repair in-
struction.
Bolt at Bracket LooseCheck the Tightening Torque
Retighten bolt
Sealing Ring at Oil DipstickS Check O–ring.
S If necessary, replace O–ring.
Sealing Ring Near End–Cover Connec-
tion DefectiveS Check sealing rings.
S Put in new sealing ring Check O–ring as de-
scribed in the repair instruction.

S No input speed error DTCs P0715, P0716, and
P0717.
S Output speed is greater than 256 rpm.
S Input speed is greater than 400 rpm.
S 1–2 gear shift is active.
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
1st gear.S Open lock up clutch.
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 P0781 sets, the possible cause of fault
could be TCM.
