7A1-34 CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION
MAJOR INPUT/OUTPUT COMPONENT AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Speed sensor Detects output shaft revolution and sends rpm signal to TCM.
Turbine sensor Detects input shaft revolution and sends rpm signal to TCM.
Engine speed sensor Inputs engine revolution from engine control computer.
Brake switch Detects brake pedal operated by the driver and sends signal to
TCM.
Inhibitor switch Detects select lever position and sends signal to TCM.
Mode select switch Detects "Power Drive" or "3rd Start" selected by the driver and
sends signal to TCM.
4L switch (4WD Only) Inputs 4L mode from transfer control computer.
ATF thermo sensor Detects ATF temperature and sends signal to TCM.
High clutch oil pressure switch Detects high clutch supply oil pressure and sends signal to
TCM.
2-4 brake oil pressure switch Detects 2-4 brake supply oil pressure and sends signal to
TCM.
Low & Reverse brake oil pressure switch Detects low & reverse brake supply oil pressure and signal to
TCM.
Throttle position sensor Inputs throttle opening angle from engine control computer.
Input
TCM Judges necessary line pressure, gear shifting point and lock-up
operation based on electrical signals from switches and
sensors and sends appropriate signals to solenoids.
Line pressure solenoid Regulates oil pump delivery pressure to the appropriate line
pressure for current driving condition based on signal from
TCM.
Low clutch solenoid Selects appropriate gear shifting position for current driving
condition and regulates low clutch supply oil pressure based on
signal from TCM.
High clutch solenoid Selects appropriate gear shifting position for current driving
condition and regulates high clutch supply oil pressure based
on signal from TCM.
2-4 brake solenoid Selects appropriate gear shifting position for current driving
condition and regulates 2-4 brake supply oil pressure based on
signal from TCM.
Low & Reverse brake solenoid Selects appropriate gear shifting position for current driving
condition and regulates low & reverse brake supply oil
pressure based on signal from TCM.
Lock-up solenoid Regulates lock-up pressure to appropriate level for current
driving conditions based on signal from TCM.
Mode indicator lamp Indicates POWER DRIVE or 3rd START switch position.
Speed meter signal (2WD Only) Outputs vehicle speed to speed meter.
A/T OIL TEMP indicator lamp Indicates A/T OIL TEMP indicator lamp in case of high
temperature.
Output
CHECK TRANS indicator lamp Indicates CHECK TRANS indicator lamp in case of
malfunction.

DIAGNOSIS (JR405E) 7A2-93
No. A1: Vehicle Does Not Run in D, 3, 2, L and R Range

Description:

Vehicle does not run though the accelerator pedal is stepped on.

Diagnosis Hints:

Some trouble in the AT main unit is supposed (since the vehicle can run even if the TCM is defective). However,
since the trouble of the main unit may be originated from the sensor system or output system, these systems
should be also checked to prevent reproduce of the trouble.

Possible Cause:

Slip of clutch (low clutch, low one-way clutch, reverse clutch, low & reverse brake).
If slip of clutch is caused, a DTC (gear ratio error) is stored.

Shortage or faulty quality of ATF.

Dropped line pressure.

Trouble in control valve body (faulty operation, sticking, clogged oil passage).

Disordered select cable (select indicator light indicates D, 3, 2, L or R but the hydraulic system is not in the D, 3,
2, L, or R range).

Faulty torque generated.

Trouble in the torque converter (faulty operation, sticking), insufficient engine output.

Malfunction of parking mechanism.

Step Action Yes No
1 Dislocation or disordered of select lever.
Does the vehicle move when the brake is released in a
position other than the P range and the vehicle is pushed?

Go to Step 2

Adjust the select cable.
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 Is the stall revolution correct in all range? Refer the STALL
TEST section in this manual.
Go to Step 5
Repair the defect or
replace.
5 Is the line pressure correct? Refer the LINE PRESSURE
TEST section in this manual. Trouble in the AT
assembly or control
valve.
Repair the defect or
replace.
