LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENTPFP:00026
Outline of Laser Beam Aiming Adjustment ProcedureEKS00BLN
CAUTION:

The laser beam aiming adjustment cannot be performed without CONSULT-II.

The laser beam aiming adjustment must be performed every time the ICC sensor is removed,
installed or has been moved as a result of a collision.
1. Prepare the vehicle and the work area.
2. Set up the ICC target board. For details, refer to Technical Service Bulletin.
3. Adjust the sensor following the procedure on CONSULT-II.
4. Check system operation after the adjustment.
PreparationEKS00BLO

Place the vehicle on level ground. Shift the transmission into "P" position and release the parking brake.

Adjust the tire pressure to the specified value.

See that there is no load in the vehicle. Coolant, engine oil and fuel should be filled to correct level.

Check that the vehicle suspension has been adjusted to the standard height by the load leveling rear air
suspension system. Refer to RSU-12, "
Basic Inspection" .

Clean the sensor with a soft cloth.
Setting up the ICC Target BoardEKS00BLP
CAUTION:
Accuracy in setting up the ICC target board is essential for the laser beam aiming adjustment.
For details, refer to Technical Service Bulletin.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Precautions ECS00CDL

Before connecting or disconnecting the A/T assembly har-
ness connector, turn ignition switch “OFF” and disconnect
negative battery cable. Because battery voltage is applied
to TCM even if ignition switch is turned “OFF”.

After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
“DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) CONFIRMATION PROCE-
DURE”.
If the repair is completed the DTC should not be displayed
in the “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE”.

Always use the specified brand of ATF. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Use paper rags not cloth rags during work.

After replacing the ATF, dispose of the waste oil using the methods prescribed by law, ordinance, etc.

Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the transmission. It is important to
prevent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.

Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.

Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could interfere
with the operation of the transmission.

Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.

All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.

Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.

It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.

The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent
springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.

Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.

Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, or hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.

Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.

Clean or replace ATF cooler if excessive foreign material is found in oil pan or clogging strainer. Refer to
AT- 1 4 , "
A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .

After overhaul, refill the transmission with new ATF.

When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque
converter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under “Changing A/T Fluid” in the AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer
to AT- 1 2 , "
Changing Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)" , AT- 1 2 , "Checking Automatic Transmission
Fluid (ATF)" .
