Measure Stall Speed
1. Chock the four wheels.
2. Mount an engine tachometer.
3. Fully apply the parking brake.
4. Step down strongly on the brake pedal with your left foot.
5. Start the engine.
6. Turn off the A/C.
7. Shift into the “D" range. Step all the way down on
the accelerator pedal with your right foot. Quickl
y
read the highest engine rpm.
Stall speed: 2100
150 rpm
8. Perform the same test in the “R" range.
Evaluation
1. If the engine speed is the same for both ranges but
lower than the specified value:
Engine output is insufficient.
Stator one-way clutch is not operating properly.
NOTE: If more than 600 rpm below the specified value,
the torque converter could be faulty.
2. If the stall speed in “D" range is higher than
specified:
Line pressure too low
Forward clutch slipping
No.2 one-way clutch not operating properly
3. If the stall speed in “R" range is higher than
specified:
Line pressure too low
Direct clutch slipping
No.3 brake slipping
4. If the stall speed in the “R" and “D" ranges are
higher than specified:
Line pressure too low
Improper fluid level
Time Lag Test
F07RY00003
If the shift lever is shifted while the engine is idling,
there will be a certain time elapse or lag before the
shock can be felt. This is used for checking the
condition of the forward clutch, direct clutch, No.3
brake, and No.2 one-way clutch.
NOTE:
1. Perform the test at normal operation fluid
temperature (50 – 80 C or 122 – 176 F)
2. Be sure to allow one minute interval between tests.
3. Make three measurements and take the average value.

Measure Time Lag
1. Fully apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine. Check idling speed (A/C OFF).
3. Shift the shift lever from “N" to “D" range. Using a
stopwatch, measure the time it takes from shifting
the lever until the shock is felt.
Time lag: Less than 0.7 seconds
4. In same manner, measure the time lag for “N"
“R".
Time lag: Less than 1.2 seconds
Evaluation
1. If “N"
“ D" time lag is longer than specified:
Line pressure too low
Forward clutch malfunction
No.2 one-way clutch not operating properly
2. If “N"
“ R" time lag is longer than specified:
Line pressure too low
Direct clutch malfunction
No.3 brake malfunction
3. If both time lag is longer than specified:
Line pressure too low

DIAGNOSIS (JR405E) 7A2-103
No. B4: Large Shock When Shift Lever is Changed to N to D
Range or N to R Range
Description:
Large shock is felt when selecting D or R range from N range during the idling after warming up.
Diagnosis Hints:
Check the entire condition of the vehicle for unusual other than AT including faulty engine mount, exhaust
hanger, etc.
When the fail-safe operation, select shock may grow worse. In such a case, check for the DTC. If no DTC is
issued, shock due to faulty operation of the control valve or burnt clutch is considered.
Possible Cause:
High engine idling.
Dislocated select lever, improper inhibitor switch adjusting point.
Faulty or insufficient tightening of engine mount, exhaust mount.
Play of suspension.
Burnt clutch.
Too low or high line pressure.
Faulty input signal system.
Faulty control valve. (faulty operation or sticking of accumulator)
