6. Drive the vehicle for at least five minutes or until the fluid temperature reaches approximately 65°C
(149°F).Use the CONSULT-II to monitor the fluid temperature as follows:
NOTE:
Fluid level will be greatly affected by temperature as shown. Therefore monitor the fluid temperature data
using the CONSULT-II.
a. Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector.
b. Select “MAIN SIGNALS” in “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-II.
c. Read out the value of “ATF TEMP 1”.
7. Re-check the fluid level at fluid temperatures of approximately
65°C (149°F) using the “HOT” range on the A/T fluid level gauge
as shown.
CAUTION:
When wiping the fluid from the ATF level gauge, always
use lint-free paper, not a cloth.
To check the fluid level, insert the ATF level gauge until
the cap contacts the top of the charging pipe, with the
gauge reversed from the normal inserted position as
shown.
8. Check the fluid condition.
If the fluid is very dark or smells burned, there may be an
internal problem with the transmission. Refer to AT - 4 1 ,
"TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" . Flush the transmission cooling
system after repairing the transmission.
If the ATF contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace the radiator and flush the transmission cooler lines
using cleaning solvent and compressed air after repairing the
transmission.
9. Install the ATF level gauge in the fluid charging pipe and install the level gauge bolt. Tighten the level
gauge bolt to specification.
