the reading should be
the same as the
specified output shaft
torque, and no
abnormal shocks
should occur.

downshifting should
occur immediately
after the shifting
operation is made.
Malfunction when shifting
Displaced shift points
Does not shift
Does not shift from 1 to 2 or

range drive at constant
speed of 10km/h The ratio between
input and output shaft
speed sensor data
should be the same
as the gear ratio
when reversing.Does not shift
TORQUE CONVERTER STALL TEST
This test measures the maximum engine speed when the selector lever is in the D or R position. The torque converter
stalls to test the operation of the torque converter, starter motor, one- way clutch operation, the holding performance of
the clutches, and brakes in the transaxle.
Do not let anybody stand in front of or behind the vehicle while this test is being carried out
