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
1 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)
Go to Step 2 Go to Step 2
2 Are any DTCs stored?
Go to DTC Chart Go to Step 3
3 Are the quantity, contamination and smell normal?
If the ATF level is
low, replenish up to
the specified level.
Go to Step 4
If ATF is extremely
black and
contaminated and
smells burnt, slip of
the clutch is
supposed.
Overhaul the AT
unit.
4 Check of engine idle up speed
Does the idle speed increase when the air conditioning or other
electric load is turned on?
Go to Step 5
Repair the defect or
replace.

7A2-132 DIAGNOSIS (JR405E)
No. G3: Creep Force is small
Description:
Vehicle does not move though a run range is selected on a flat road during the idling.
Diagnosis Hints:
When the creep force is small in all ranges, low engine output is considered. Another possible cause is slip of
clutch. If the creep is normal only in the R range, operation of the fail-safe function due to a trouble in the electrical
system is considered.
Possible Cause:
Slip of clutch (low clutch).
If slip of clutch is caused, a DTC (gear ratio error) is stored.
Low engine output (low idling speed, out of injection timing, lowered compression pressure, etc.).
Shortage or faulty quality of ATF.
Disconnection or short circuit of solenoid valve output.
Clogged oil passage of solenoid valve output.
Faulty ground return line in AT assembly.
If the ground return line earth is faulty, clutch pressure may decrease causing slip of the clutch.
Trouble in the torque converter system (faulty operation).
Step Action Yes No
1 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)
Go to Step 2 Go to Step 2
2 Are any DTCs stored?
Go to DTC Chart Go to Step 3
3 Are the quantity, contamination and smell normal? If the ATF level is low,
replenish up to the
specified level.
Go to Step 4
If ATF is extremely
black and

DIAGNOSIS (JR405E) 7A2-133
No. G4: Large Noise During Idling with the Vehicle in Stop State
Description:
The transmission is noisy during the idling speed in all ranges.
Diagnosis Hints:
Causes such as solenoid operating sound or faulty oil pump are considered.
Distinguishing to some extent is possible by stopping the solenoid operation temporarily, checking the correlation
for the former case and, changing the line pressure and confirming the correlation with noise.
As a matter of course, noise may be generated around the engine, for instance, other than the AT and should be
checked carefully.
Note:
When the noise is generated only at the time of gear shift, it may be the sound of flowing ATF or gear
noise. If the sound varies depending on the gear speed to be shifted, it may be the gear noise generated
from the planetary gear and its related components. If the sound varies depending on the vehicle
speed, it may be the gear noise of the output system, and if varying depending on the engine speed, it
may be the gear noise of the input system or faulty torque converter.
In either case, sound may be "noise" depending on the origin and resonance object. When the object
generating the sound (resonance object) and the sound source (vibration source) are different,
investigation of the cause may be difficult.
No. H1: Judder Occurs at the Lock-up
Diagnosis Hints:
The vehicle body judders at lock-up.
Diagnosis Hints:
Slip due to burning of the lockup piston or insufficient fastening due to dropped working pressure are considered.
Trouble diagnosis flow is basically the same as "No. I1: No lock-up".
Note:
When the lock-up piston has burnt, foreign material mixed in the oil cooler is considered. In such a
case, inspect the oil cooler circuit for clogging of the oil cooler.
No. H2: Large Lock-up Shock
No. H3: Lock-up Point is High or Low
Description:
Large shock is felt at lock-up.
Lock-up point is excessive high or low.
Diagnosis Hints:
Out of properties of input sensor or faulty lock-up piston pressure system are considered.
Trouble diagnosis flow is basically the same as "No. I1: No lock-up".
