DIAGNOSIS (JR405E) 7A2-97
No. B2: Poor Acceleration at Starting
Description:
Starting acceleration is poor.
Diagnosis Hints:
In addition to the low engine output, faulty gear shifting of AT or fixing at the 3rd position may be possible.
Therefore, in case of such a trouble that "maximum speed is low, and acceleration is poor", it should be cleared
up whether the trouble is originated from the engine system of AT system by a running test, inspection of stall
revolution, etc.
Possible Cause:
Clogged air cleaner, out of injection timing, dropped compression pressure, etc.
Fixing at 3rd position (fail-safe activated).
Since the gear is fixed at the 3rd position because of the fail-safe function, a trouble that "Maximum
speed is low, and acceleration is poor" is resulted. In this case, the DTC is memorized.
When TCM stops operation because of faulty TCM ground, the gear is fixed at the 3rd position because
of a mechanical reason. In this case, no DTC is memorized.
Disordered inhibitor switch.
Incorrect properties of throttle opening signal (serial communication) of throttle position sensor.
Throttle opening signal (serial communication) of the throttle position sensor does not change in
proportion to the throttle opening. In this case, fixing at the high or low gear results in such a trouble
that "Maximum Speed is Low and Acceleration is Poor".
Slip of clutch (low clutch, high clutch).
If slip of clutch is caused, a DTC (gear ratio error) is stored.
Dropped line pressure.
Trouble in the torque converter system (faulty operation).
Step Action Yes No
1 Test Drive.
Is the gear smoothly shifted in the order of 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd,
3rd to 4th gear and lock up?
Clogged air cleaner,
out of injection
timing, dropped
compression
pressure, etc.
Go to Step 2
2 Gear ratio trouble diagnosis.
Travel in the following sequence for about 7 seconds or more in
each range: Start in the L range (1st) to 2 range (2nd) to 3 range
(3rd) to D range (4th) (to detect the gear ratio trouble exactly, this
process should be carried out)

Step Action Yes No
4 Are the quantity, contamination and smell normal?
If the ATF level is
low, replenish up to
the specified level.
Go to Step 5
If ATF is extremely
black and
contaminated and
smells burnt, slip of
the clutch is
supposed.
Overhaul the AT
unit.
5 Inspection of inhibitor switch using a Tech 2 or circuit tester.
When the select lever is operated, is the data display in the Tech 2
correct or voltage at each range correct?

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)

7A2-104 DIAGNOSIS (JR405E)
No. B5: Engine Stalls When Selecting From N Range to
R, D, 3, 2 or L Range
Description:
The engine stalls when selecting from N or P range to a run range during the engine idling.
Diagnosis Hints:
As causes attributable to the engine, faulty idle up, insufficient engine output, etc. are considered.
As a cause of the AT system, faulty lockup piston system (lockup engine stall) is considered.
If the oil through resistance increases remarkably due to clogged oil cooler or some other reason, or if the ATF
level decreases, the lock-up piston works causing the engine stall.
Possible Cause:
Disordered idling speed, faulty idle up, faulty engine output, shortage output.
Insufficient ATF quantity (dropped level).
Clogged oil cooler (foreign substance mixed in).
Faulty lock-up piston (clogged oil passage of solenoid drive circuit, faulty operation).
Step Action Yes No
