CAUTION: Use only the specified O-rings as they
are made of a special material for the R-134a sys-
tem. The use of any other O-rings may allow the
connection to leak intermittently during vehicle
operation.
(4) Lubricate the male fitting and O-rings, and the
inside of the female fitting with clean R-134a refrig-
erant oil. Use only refrigerant oil of the type recom-
mended for the compressor in the vehicle.
(5) Fit the female half of the coupler fitting over
the male half of the fitting.
(6) Push together firmly on the two halves of the
coupler fitting until the garter spring in the cage on
the male half of the fitting snaps over the flanged
end on the female half of the fitting.
(7) Ensure that the spring-lock coupler is fully
engaged by trying to separate the two coupler halves.
This is done by pulling the refrigerant lines on either
side of the coupler away from each other.
(8) Reinstall the secondary retaining clip over the
spring-lock coupler cage.
(9) Evacuate the refrigerant system (Refer to 24 -
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM EVACUATE).
(10) Charge the refrigerant system (Refer to 24 -
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM CHARGE).

WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and
cautions for this system before performing the fol-
lowing operation (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR
CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - WARNINGS) and (Refer
to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
CAUTIONS). Failure to follow the warnings and cau-
tions could result in possible personal injury or
death.
NOTE: The underbody refrigerant lines for the
optional rear A/C system are serviced in five sec-
tions. Two sections are connected the A/C compres-
sor. Two sections of the underbody suction line
(low-side) are connected together by a tapping
block with an O-ring seal. The underbody A/C dis-
charge line uses a spring-lock type refrigerant line
coupler with an O-ring seal.
DISCHARGE LINE
(1) Remove the cover from the rear A/C evaporator
housing (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-TIONING/DISTRIBUTION - REAR/A/C EVAPORA-
TOR COVER-REAR - REMOVAL).

ant system (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING/PLUMBING - STANDARD PROCEDURE -
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY).
(3) Raise and support the vehicle.
(4) Using the proper A/C line disconnect tool, dis-
connect the underbody discharge line spring-lock cou-
pler from the compressor section of the underbody
discharge line and remove and discard the O-ring
seal (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITION-
ING/PLUMBING/REFRIGERANT LINE COUPLER -
REMOVAL) (Fig. 39).
(5) Disconnect the underbody discharge line from
the rear A/C discharge line and remove and discard
the O-ring seal.
(6) Install plug in, or tape over all of the opened
discharge line fittings.
(7) Disengage the fuel lines from the retaining clip
located near the transmission and position the fuel
lines out of the way.
(8) Remove the screws and brackets that secure
the discharge line to the underneath of the vehicle.
(9) Support transmission with a suitable lifting
device and remove the rear transmission crossmem-
ber (Refer to 13 - FRAME & BUMPERS/FRAME/
REAR CROSSMEMBER-TRANSMISSION -
REMOVAL).
(10) Remove the underbody discharge line from
the vehicle. Push the discharge line forward and over
the transmission, then pull it rearward to remove.
(11) If necessary, remove the bolt that secures the
compressor section of the underbody discharge line to
the A/C compressor and remove and discard the
O-ring seal. Make sure to plug in, or tape over the
opened discharge line fitting and compressor port.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The procedures contained in this manual include
all of the specifications, instructions, and graphics
needed to diagnose NAG1 Electronic Automatic
Transmission and Shift Lever Assembly problems.
The diagnostics in this manual are based on the
failure condition or symptom being present at the
time of diagnosis.
When repairs are required, refer to the appropri-
ate volume of the service information for the proper
removal and repair procedure.
READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE TRYING TO
DIAGNOSE A VEHICLE TROUBLE CODE.
Diagnostic procedures change every year. New
diagnostic systems may be added and/or carryover
systems may be enhanced. It is recommended that
you review the entire manual to become familiar
with all new and changed diagnostic procedures.
1.1 SYSTEM COVERAGE
This diagnostic procedures manual covers all
Sprinter (VA) equipped with a NAG1 Automatic
Transmission.
1.2 SIX -STEP TROUBLESHOOTING
PROCEDURE
Diagnosis of the NAG1 electronic transmission is
done in six basic steps:
Verification of complaint
Verification of any related symptoms
Symptom analysis
Problem isolation
Repair of isolated problem
Verification of proper operation
2.0 IDENTIFICATION OF
SYSTEM
The NAG1 Transmission family can be identified
by the presence of a 13 pin electrical connector, with
a bayonet lock on the right hand side of the trans-
mission. The connector is oriented horizontally.
3.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NAG1 electronic transmission is an electron-
ically controlled five speed transmission with a
controlled slip torque converter. The NAG1 elec-tronic transmission is a conventional transmission
in that it uses hydraulically applied clutches to shift
a planetary gear train. However, the electronic
control system replaces many of the mechanical and
hydraulic components used in conventional trans-
mission valve bodies.
The ratios for the gear stages are obtained by 3
planetary gear sets. Fifth Gear is designed as an
Overdrive with a high speed ratio. The gears are
actuated electronically/hydraulically. The electronic
control system enables precise adaptation of pres-
sures to the respective operating conditions and to
the engine output during a shift phase, which
results in a significant improvement in shift qual-
ity.
3.2 FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
The NAG1 electronic transmission has a fully
adaptive control system. The system performs its
functions based on continuous real-time sensor and
switch feedback information. In addition the TCM
receives information from the Shift Lever Assembly,
ECM (engine management) and ABS (chassis sys-
tems) controllers over the CAN bus. The CAN bus is
a high speed communication bus that allows real
time control capability between various controllers.
Most messages are sent every 20 milliseconds, this
means critical information can be shared between
the Transmission, Shifter, Engine and ABS control-
lers. The CAN bus is a two wire bus with aCAN C
Bus (+) circuitand aCAN C Bus (-) circuit. The
CAN bus uses a twisted pair of wires in the harness
to reduce the potential of radio and noise interfer-
ence. The CAN bus also uses a 120 ohm terminating
resistor in both the ECM and Sentry Key Remote
Entry Module (SKREEM) modules. The module
terminating resistance is measured across both
CAN bus circuits at the ECM or SKREEM module.
The control system automatically adapts to
changes in engine performance, vehicle speed, and
transmission temperature variations to provide
consistent shift quality. The control system ensures
that clutch operation during upshifting and down-
shifting is more responsive without increased
harshness. The TCM controls the actuation of sole-
noid valves for modulating shift pressure and gear
change. The required pressure level is calculated
from the load condition, engine speed. Power for the
transmission system is supplied through the Trans-
mission Relay. The TCM is located in the under the
drivers seat of the vehicle.
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) contin-
uously checks for electrical problems, mechanical
problems, and some hydraulic problems. When a
problem is sensed, the TCM stores a diagnostic
trouble code (DTC). Some of these codes cause the
transmission to go into9limp-in9or9default9mode.

GENERAL INFORMATION
3-4 solenoid -The 3-4 solenoid is activated when
the TCM determines that the transmission must
shift into or out of 4th gear. The solenoid is only
activated during the shifting of the transmission.
When the solenoid is activated, hydraulic pressure
is applied to the proper shift elements in the trans-
mission to allow the desired shift. Once the shift is
completed, the solenoid is turned off.
TCC solenoid -The TCC solenoid is activated
when the TCM determines that the Torque con-
verter clutch should be activated. The TCC clutch is
a variable slip torque clutch that allows control of
torque converter slip from 5% to 95.5% of full TCC
engagement. The clutch is controlled by the TCC
solenoid which is pulse width modulated (PWM) to
provide the desired amount of slip.
Shift Pressure Solenoid -The Shift Pressure
Solenoid is activated when the TCM determines
that a transmission shift is required. The solenoid
is PWM controller to allow the proper amount of
hydraulic pressure to the shift elements. The sole-
noid is only activated during the shifting of the
transmission. When the solenoid is activated, hy-
draulic pressure is removed from the proper shift
elements to allow the desired shift. Once the shift is
completed, the solenoid is turned off.
Modulation pressure solenoid -The modulation
pressure is always active. The solenoid is pulse
width modulated (PWM) controlled and is used to
modulate the hydraulic system pressure to the
desired pressure.
3.2.4 TRANSMISSION COMPONENT
DESCRIPTIONS
Shift Assembly
The Shift Lever Selector transmits all selector lever
positions, as well as selected shift ranges to the
TCM over the CAN Bus. At the same time, the
selector lever positions P, R, N, and D are transmit-
ted by a cable to the selector lever shaft in the
transmission.
Brake shift inter-lock
To prevent unauthorized shifting out of the park
position, the Selector lever is locked in the Park
position until the ignition key is turned to the run
position and the brake pedal is pressed. This will
allow the driver to shift out of the park position.
Reverse Lamp Output
The Reverse Light Switch is integrated into the
shifter module and controls the reverse lights.
Reverse Inhibitor
The Shift Lever Assembly constantly monitors ABS
wheel speed to prevents an inadvertent selection of
reverse at speeds above approximately 6.4 Km/h(4MPH). The Reverse inhibitor is part of the Shift
Lever Assembly and is controlled by the Shift Lever
Assembly module.
Trans temp sensor - P/N Switch circuit
The TCM will detect the selector lever in park and
neutral positions. The TCM does this by monitoring
the Transmission temperature sensor signal along
with the shifter position signals. The P/N switch
contact is operated by a cam located in the trans-
mission which, opens a reed contact switch that is
wired in series with the transmission temperature
sensor. When the P/N contact switch is opened in
park and neutral, the TCM senses a high transmis-
sion temperature. Confirming the P/N switch sta-
tus. Note: In park or neutral, the TCM uses engine
temperature (to avoid setting a DTC). The TCM
sends a hardwired signal to the ECM that will allow
the ECM controlled start circuit to engage in P or N
only. The TCM also sends a P/N bus message to the
ECM to confirm the P/N switch status.
The Normal Transmission Temperature Sensor
resistance is between 500.0 and 2500.0 ohms.
The normal voltage limits for the transmis-
sion temperature sensor, are between 0.5 and
3.0 volts.
Input Speed Sensors
The NAG1 transmission has two input speed sen-
sors N2 and N3, both speed sensors are located on
the valve body and report DTC's for the input speed
sensors errors. The speed sensors are Hall Effect
speed sensors that are used by the TCM to calculate
the transmissions input speed. Since the input
speed could not be measured directly, two of the
drive elements are measured. Two input speed
sensors were required because both drive elements
are not active in all gears. The input sensors N2 and
N3 will report the same input speed in gears 2nd,
3rd or 4th. If the N2 and N3 input speed signals are
not the same in these gears then there is an issue
with the transmission and the DTC Input Sensors
Mismatch will be set.
The N3 input speed is not reported in1st and 5th
gears. The N2 sensor is not reported in Reverse.
The Input Speed Sensor Overspeed is a rationality
check that is intended to indicate a major transmis-
sion failure and will cause a loss of drive (place the
transmission in Neutral)
Output Speed Sensor (ABS signal)
The NAG1 transmission does not have an output
shaft speed sensor. The TCM uses the ABS (An-
tilock Brake System) Wheel Speed sensor informa-
tion, it receives over the CAN bus, to calculate the
transmissions output shaft speed. The TCM moni-
tors the ABS system for functionality and reports
ABS speed sensor and communication DTCs, which
will affect proper transmission operation.

4.2.1 TECHNICIAN SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: ENGINES PRODUCE CARBON
MONOXIDE THAT IS ODORLESS, CAUSES
SLOWER REACTION TIME, AND CAN LEAD
TO SERIOUS INJURY. WHEN THE ENGINE IS
OPERATING KEEP SERVICE AREAS WELL
VENTILATED OR ATTACH THE VEHICLE
EXHAUST SYSTEM TO THE SHOP EXHAUST
REMOVAL SYSTEM.
Set the parking brake and block the wheels before
testing or repairing the vehicle. If is especially
important to block the wheels on front-wheel drive
vehicles: the parking brake does not hold the drive
wheels.
Some operations in this manual require that
hydraulic tubes, hoses, and fittings, disconnected
for inspection or testing purposes. These systems,
when fully charged, contain fluid at high pressure.
Before disconnecting any hydraulic tubes, hoses,
and fittings, be sure that the system is fully depres-
surized.
When servicing a vehicle, always wear eye pro-
tection, and remove any metal jewelry such as
watchbands or bracelets that might make an inad-
vertent electrical contact.
When diagnosing a Transmission system prob-
lem, it is important to follow approved procedures
where applicable. These procedures can be found in
the service information. Following these procedures
is very important to the safety of individuals per-
forming diagnostic tests.
4.2.2 VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR
TESTING
Make sure the vehicle being tested has a fully
charged battery. If it does not, false diagnostic
DTC's or error messages may occur. It is extremely
important that accurate shift lever position data is
available to the TCM. The accuracy of any DTC
found in memory is doubtful unless the Shift Lever
Test, performed on the DRBIIItScan Tool, passes
without failure.
4.2.3 SERVICING SUB-ASSEMBLIES
Some components of the Transmission system are
intended to be serviced in assembly only. Attempt-
ing to remove or repair certain system sub-
components may result in personal injury and/orimproper system operation. Only those components
with approved repair and installation procedures in
the service information should be serviced.
