Inspections Before Trouble DiagnosisACS007A7
A/T FLUID CHECK
Fluid Leakage and Fluid Level Check

Inspect for fluid leakage and check the fluid level. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "Checking A/T Fluid" .
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the A/
T fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). Inspect the
amount of A/T fluid. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.
5. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the
accelerator pedal.
6. Quickly read off the stall speed, then quickly remove your foot
from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.
7. Move the selector lever to “N” position.
8. Cool down the A/T fluid.
Fluid condition Conceivable Cause Required Operation

CAUTION:
Run the engine at idle for at least one minute.

H: Stall speed higher than standard value
L: Stall speed lower than standard value

LINE PRESSURE TEST
Line Pressure Test Port
Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil and replenish if necessary.
2. Drive the car for about 10 minutes to warm it up so that the A/T fluid reaches in range of 50 to 80°C (122
to 176°F), then inspect the amount of A/T fluid and replenish if necessary.
NOTE:
The A/T fluid temperature rises in range of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) during 10 minutes of driving.
3. Remove front propeller shaft from vehicle (with AWD models). Refer to PR-4, "
Removal and Installation" . Stall speed:
