Unlocking the «SHIFT LOCK»(normal operation).
Switch on the ignition.
Press the brake pedal and keep it pressed.
Move the gear selection lever out of position «P».
Unlocking the «SHIFT LOCK» (with an operating fault).
Should it be impossible to unlock the «shift lock»with the «Normal operation»method.
The fault may originate from one of the following components:
- «Shift lock».
- Gear lever position switch.
- Automatic gearbox ECU.
- Electrical harness.
- Battery voltage.
Operations to be performed.

DRAINING, FILLING AND TOPPING UP THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
WARNING: Do not take account of the information mentioned on tool [1].
Oil capacity for a dry gearbox: 7 litres (approx.).
Type of oil: JWS 3309 ESSO(red in colour).
Volume of oil remaining after draining: 4 litres (approx.).
Quantity of oil to be added: 3 litres (approx.).
Refit the filler plug (3)(with a new seal).
Tighten the plug (3)to: 4 ± 1 mdaN.
Initialise the oil usage counter (follow the procedure in the diagnostic tool).
Checking the oil level.
Prior conditions:
- Vehicle in a horizontal position.
- Check that the gearbox is not in back-up mode.
Remove the filler plug (3).
Add 0.5 litreof extra oil into the gearbox.
Press the brake, change through all the gears.
Gear lever in position "P".
Engine running, at idle:
- Oil temperature 60°C (+ 8 ; - 2)(parameter measures with a diagnostic tool).
- Remove the level plug (2).

CHECKING THE OIL PRESSURE IN THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
WARNING: Clean the flexible pipe of the tool [1] each time before use; the different
automatic gearbox oils cannot be intermixed.
Fit the tool [1]on the tool [2].
Perform the following operations:
- Raise the vehicle, wheels hanging.
- Apply the parking brake.
- Start the engine.
- Check the oil pressure.
WARNING: Wait for the gearbox oil to reach a temperature between 58°C and 68°C.
Check the level of oil in the gearbox (see corresponding operation).
NOTE:Check the temperature of the oil using the diagnostic tool in parameter measures.
Gear lever position: D.
Engine speed: Idling.
Principal oil pressure: 3.7 to 4.2 bars.

TRANSMISSION
CHECKING THE OIL PRESSURE IN THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Checking the torque converter.
WARNING: This check has to be of short duration (2 seconds), as it causes a rapid
rise in the temperature of the oil in the automatic gearbox.
Respect the following checking conditions:
- Engine at operating temperature.
- Gear lever in position D.
- Press on the brake pedal.
- Accelerate the engine to the maximum engine speed (see below).
Gear lever position.: D.
Maximum engine speed for ES9A : 2400 ± 50 rpm.
Maximum engine speed for DT17 : 2600 ± 50 rpm.
Diagnosis:
- If the maximum engine speed obtained is lower than the value indicated, the torque
converter is the cause.
- If the maximum engine speed obtained is higher than the value indicated, the automatic
gearbox is the cause (slipping).
Additional operations.
Remove tools [1]and [2].
Refit the screw (2), with a new seal.
Reposition the pipe (1).
Refit the air filter housing.
