7.ROAD TEST
NOTICE:
Conduct the test at normal operating ATF temperature 50 to 80
C (122 to 176
F).
(a)D range test Shift into the D range and fully depress the accelerator pedal and check\
the following points:
(1)Check up±shift operation.Check that 1  2, 2  3 and 3  O/D up±shift take place, and that the shift points conform to
the automatic shift schedule (See page 03±45).
HINT:
O/D Gear Up±shift Prohibition Control

Coolant temp. is 60 C (140 F) or less and vehicle speed is 70 km/h (43 mph) or less.

ATF temp. is 10 C (50 
) or less.
O/D and 3rd Gear Lock±up Prohibition Control

Brake pedal is depressed.

Accelerator pedal is released.

ATF temp. is 10 C (50 
) or less.

Coolant temp. is 60 C (140 F) or less.
When the 2nd start switch is on, there is no 1 2 up±shift and 2 1 down±shift.
(2)Check for shift shock and slip. Check for shock and slip at the 1  2, 2  3 and 3  O/D up±shift.
(3)Check for abnormal noises and vibration. Run in D range lock±up or O/D gear and check for abnormal noise and v\
ibration.
HINT:
The check for the cause of abnormal noise and vibration must be done ver\
y thoroughly as it could also be
sure to loss of balance in the differential, torque converter, etc. (4)Check kick±down operation.While running in the D range, 2nd, 3rd and O/D gears, check to see that the p\
ossible kick±down
vehicle speed limits for 2  1, 3  2 and O/D  3 kick±downs conform to those indicated in the
automatic shift schedule (See page 03±45).
(5) Check for abnormal shock and slip at kick±down.
(6) Check the lock±up mechanism.

Drive in D range O/D gear, at a steady speed (lock±up ON) of about 70 km/h (43 mph).

Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the engine speed does not change
abruptly.
If there is a big jump in engine speed, there is no lock±up.
(b) S range test Shift to the S range, depress the accelerator pedal and check the follow\
ing points:
Shift operations.

Shifting the shift lever to º+º or º±º changes the shift \
range on the combination meter.
HINT:
Manual shift prohibition control is performed when:

Down±shifting causes engine overrun.

Down±shifting is required continuously. (Down±shifting to 1st gear may not be performed.)
(c) R range test Shift into the R range and fully depress the accelerator pedal and check\
for slipping.
CAUTION:
Before conducting this test, ensure that the test area is free from peop\
le and obstruction.
(d) P range test Stop the vehicle on a grade (more than 5 ) and after shifting into the P range, release the parking
brake. Then, check to see that the parking lock pawl holds the vehicle in plac\
e.

8. MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
(a) Measure the stall speed.
The object of this test is to check the overall performance of the transaxle and engine by measuring
the stall speeds in the D and R ranges.
NOTICE:

Do the test at normal operating ATF temperature 50 to 80
C (122 to 176
F).

Do not continuously run this test for longer than 5 seconds.

To ensure safety, do this test in a wide, clear level area which provides good traction.

The stall test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe the condi-
tions of wheels or wheel stoppers outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.
(1) Chock the 4 wheels.
(2) Connect the hand±held tester to DLC3 or tachome-
ter to terminal TAC of DLC3 with SST.
SST 09843±18030
(3) Fully apply the parking brake.
(4) Keep your left foot pressing firmly on the brake ped-
al.
(5) Start the engine.
(6) Shift into the D range. Press all the way down on the
accelerator pedal with your right foot.
(7) Quickly read the stall speed at this time.
Stall speed: 2,400
150 rpm
(8) Do the same test in the R range.
Stall speed: 2,400
150 rpm
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
(a) Stall speed low in D and R ranges

Engine output may be insufficient

HINT: If the value is larger or smaller than the specified value by
600 rpm or more, the torque converter could be faulty.
(b) Stall speed high in D range

Line pressure too low

Forward clutch slipping

One±way clutch No.2 not operating properly
(c) Stall speed high in R range

9. HYDRAULIC TEST
(a) Measure the line pressure.
NOTICE:

Do the test at normal operation ATF temperature 50 to 80
C (122 to 176
F).

The line pressure test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe
the conditions of wheels or wheel stopper outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.

Be careful to prevent SST's hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
(1) Warm up the ATF.
(2) Remove the test plug on the left side of the trans-
axle case and connect SST.

(5) Start the engine and check idling speed.
(6) Keep your left foot pressing firmly on the brake ped-
al and shift into D range.
(7) Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
(8) Depress the accelerator pedal all the way down.
Quickly read the highest line pressure when engine
speed reaches stall speed.

before the shock can be felt. This is used for checking the condition of the direct clutch, forward
clutch, and1st and reverse brake.
NOTICE:
SPerform the test at the normal operating ATF temperature 50 to 80˚C(122 to176˚F).

(b) S position test
Shift to the S position, depress the accelerator pedal and check the following points:
(1) Check shift operation.
SWhile driving in the D position and 5th gear, shift into the S position and back to the D posi-
tion. Check that the gear change 5
4 down−shift and 4
5up−shift can be performed.
SWith the shift lever in the S position (while the vehicle is stopped), shift into the ”+” position
to check that the shift position on the combination meter changes as follows:1
2, 2

3, 3
4 and 4
5.
SWhile driving in the 4(S) position and 4th gear (at a vehicle speed of approximately 40 to
50 km/h (25 to 31mph)), shift into the ”−” position and check if the 3rd gear down−shift oc-
curs and the engine brake performs properly.
SWhile driving in the 3(S) position and 3rd gear (at a vehicle speed of approximately 30 to
40 km/h (19 to 25 mph)), shift into the ”−” position and check if the 2nd gear down−shift
occurs and the engine brake performs properly.
SWhile driving in the 2(S) position and 2nd gear (at a vehicle speed of approximately 20 to
30 km/h (12to19 mph)), shift into the ”−” position and check if the1st gear down−shift oc-
curs and the engine brake performs properly.
HINT:
Manual shift (S position) is prohibited under either of the following conditions:
SDown−shifting may cause engine overrun.
SThe driver continuously down−shifts. (Down−shifting to1st gear may not be performed.)
(c) R position test:
Shift into the R position, lightly depress the accelerator pedal, and check that the vehicle moves back-
ward without any abnormal noise or vibration.
CAUTION:
Before conducting this test ensure that the test area is free from people and obstruction.
(d) P position test:
Stop the vehicle on a grade (more than 5˚) and after shifting into the P position, release the parking
brake. Then, check that the parking lock pawl holds the vehicle in place.
(e) Uphill/downhill control function test:
(1) Check that the gear does not up−shift to the 4th or 5th gear while the vehicle is driving uphill.
(2) Check that the gear automatically down−shifts from the 5th to 4th or from the 4th to 3rd gear when
brake is applied while the vehicle is driving downhill.
