REMOVAL
1. Remove negative battery terminal. Refer to SC-4, "BATTERY" .
2. Remove A/T finisher. Refer to IP-13, "
A/T FINISHER" .
3. Disconnect selector control cable.
4. Disconnect A/T device harness connector.
5. Remove control device assembly.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in reverse order of removal. Be careful of the following:

After installation is completed, adjust and check A/T position.
Adjustment of A/T PositionECS00EO0
1. Loosen nut of control cable.
2. Place PNP switch and selector lever in “P” position.
3. After pushing the control cable in the direction shown with a force of 9.8 N ·m (1kg-m, 2.2 lb-ft), release it. This is in the natu-
ral state, tighten control cable nut to specifications.
Checking of A/T PositionECS00EO1
1. Place selector lever in “P” position, and turn ignition switch ON
(engine stop).
2. Make sure selector lever can be shifted to other than “P” posi-
tion when brake pedal is depressed. Also make sure selector
lever can be shifted from “P” position only when brake pedal is
depressed.
3. Move the selector lever and check for excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
4. Confirm the selector lever stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all the positions. Check
whether or not the actual position the selector lever is in
matches the position shown by the shift position indicator and
the transmission body.
5. The method of operating the lever to individual positions correctly should be as shown.
6. Confirm the back-up lamps illuminate only when lever is placed in the “R” position. Confirm the back-up
lamps does not illuminate when selector lever is pushed against “R” position in the “P” or “N” position.
7. Confirm the engine can only be started with the selector lever in the “P” and “N” positions.
8. Make sure transmission is locked completely in “P” position.
Control cable nut : 14.5 N·m (1.5 kg-m, 11 ft-lb)

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Operational Check (Front)EJS003XL
The purpose of the operational check is to confirm that the system operates properly.
CHECKING MEMORY FUNCTION
1. Set the temperature to 90°F or 32 °C.
2. Turn front blower control dial counterclockwise until system shuts OFF.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn ignition switch ON.
5. Press the AUTO switch.
6. Confirm that the set temperature remains at previous temperature.
7. Turn front blower control counterclockwise until system shuts OFF.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-131, "
Memory Function" .
If OK, continue with next check.
CHECKING BLOWER
1. Turn front blower control clockwise, blower should operate on low speed. The blower symbol should have one blade lit (on display).
2. Turn the front blower control dial again, and continue checking blower speed and blower symbol until all speeds are checked.
3. Leave blower on MAX speed.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 9 5 , "
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR BLOWER
MOTOR"AT C - 9 5 , "DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR BLOWER MOTOR" .
If OK, continue with next check.
CHECKING DISCHARGE AIR
1. Press MODE switch four times and the DEF ( ) switch.
2. Each position indicator should change shape (on display).
3. Confirm that discharge air comes out according to the air distribution table. Refer to AT C - 3 0 , "
Discharge
Air Flow" .
Mode door position is checked in the next step.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 6 4 , "
Mode Door Motor Circuit" .
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual inspection) and intake door position is at fresh
when the DEF or D/F is selected.
CHECKING RECIRCULATION (, ONLY)
1. Press recirculation ( ) switch one time. Recirculation indicator should illuminate.
2. Press recirculation ( ) switch one more time. Recirculation indicator should go off.
3. Listen for intake door position change (blower sound should change slightly).
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 8 3 , "
Intake Door Motor Circuit" .
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual inspection) and intake door position is at fresh
when the DEF or D/F is selected. REC ( ) is not allowed in DEF ( ) D/F ( ) or FOOT ( ).
CHECKING TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Rotate temperature control dial (driver side or passenger side) counterclockwise until 16 °C (60 °F) is dis-
played.
2. Check for cold air at appropriate discharge air outlets.
If NG, listen for sound of air mix door motor operation. If OK, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-121,
"Insufficient Cooling" . If air mix door motor appears to be malfunctioning, go to AT C - 7 2 , "DIAGNOSTIC PRO-
CEDURE FOR AIR MIX DOOR MOTOR (DRIVER)" or AT C - 7 6 , "DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR AIR MIX
DOOR MOTOR (PASSENGER)" .
If OK, continue the check. Conditions : Engine running and at normal operating temperature
