TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
Judgement of Line Pressure Test
ROAD TEST
Description

The road test checks overall performance of the A/T and analyzes possible malfunction causes.

The road test is carried out in the following three stages.
1. Check before engine is started. Refer to AT- 5 7
.
2. Check at idle. Refer to AT- 5 7
.
3. Cruise test

Inspect all the items from Part 1 to Part 3. Refer to AT- 5 8 , AT- 6 0 , AT- 6 1 .

Before beginning the road test, check the test procedure and inspection items.

Test all inspection items until the symptom is uncovered. Diagnose NG items when all road tests are com-
plete.
Judgement Possible cause
Idle speed Low for all positions
(“P”, “R”, “N”, “D”,
“M”) Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and low oil pump output.
For example

Oil pump wear

Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking or spring fatigue

Oil strainer
oil pump
pressure regulator valve passage oil leak

Engine idle speed too low
Only low for a spe-
cific position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.
High Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the line pressure adjustment func-
tion.
For example

Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction

ATF temperature sensor malfunction

Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking in OFF state, filter clog, cut line)

Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
Stall speed Line pressure does
not rise higher than
the line pressure for
idle. Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the pressure adjustment function.
For example

Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction

TCM breakdown

Line pressure solenoid malfunction (shorting, sticking in ON state)

Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking

Pilot valve sticking or pilot filter clogged
The pressure rises,
but does not enter
the standard posi-
tion. Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and malfunction in the pres-
sure adjustment function.
For example

Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction

Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking, filter clog)

Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking

Pilot valve sticking or pilot filter clogged
Only low for a spe-
cific position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.
