AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK THE FLUID LEVEL
HINT:
Drive the vehicle so that the engine and transaxle are at normal
operating temperature.
Fluid temperature: 70 - 80 °C (158 - 176 °F)
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the parking
brake.
(b) With the engine idling and the brake pedal depressed,
shift the shift lever into all positions from P to L position,
and return to P position.
(c) take out the dipstick and wipe it clean.
(d) Put it back fully into the pipe.
(e) take it out and check that the fluid level is in the HOT posi-
tion.
If there are leaks, it is necessary to repair or replace O-rings,
FIPGs, oil seals, plugs and/or other parts.

ADJUSTMENT
1. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSY
(a) Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to ON.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and check that the engine starts only when the shift lever is set in N or P posi-
tion.
(c) Check that the back-up light is lit and the reverse warning buzzer sounds only when the shift lever is
set in R position.
If a failure is found, check the continuity of the park/neutral position switch.
2. ADJUST PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSY
(a) Loosen the 2 bolts of park/neutral position switch and set
the shift lever to the N position.
(b) Align the groove with neutral basic line.
(c) Hold the switch in position and tighten the 2 bolts.
Torque: 5.4 NVm (55 kgfVcm, 48 in.Vlbf)
(d) After adjustment, perform the inspection described in
step 1.
