Test Instructions
Line Pressure Test
Legend1. Oil cooler (outlet)
2. Low & reverse brake pressure detection port (R range line pressure detection port) 3. Low clutch pressure detection port (D, 3, 2, L range
line pressure detection port)
4. Oil cooler (inlet)
Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Fully apply the parking brake and chock all wheels.
2. Check the level of the engine oil, coolant and transmission fluid. Replenish as necessary.
3. Remove the plug from either of the line pressure detection port (low & reverse brake pressure
detection port or low clutch pressure detection
port).
4. Install a pressure gauge to the line pressure detection port.
5. Start the engine and warm up (allow engine coolant temperature to reach at least 70 °C
[158 °F]).
Important: Keep the brakes applied at all times in
order to prevent unexpected vehicle motion. Personal
injury may result if the vehicle moves unexpectedly.
6. Let idle and record the line pressure when the selector lever is positioned R or D, 3, 2 and L
range. Important:
Line pressure test at the stall speed must
be finished within 5 seconds. Prolonged test time may
break the transmission.
7. Fully depress the brake pedal with your left foot.
8. Move the selector lever to the R or D range and fully depress the accelerator pedal. Record the line
pressure as soon as the stall speed.
9. Move the selector lever to the N range and let idle for at least 1 minute.
10. If the pressure gauge is connected to the low clutch pressure detection port, repeat the line
pressure test (step 7 to 9) at the stall speed in 3, 2
and L range.
11. Turn OFF the ignition.
12. Disconnect a pressure gauge from the line pressure detection port.
