MANUAL CONTROL SYSTEM
MANUAL CONTROL LEVER
The manual control lever is fitted to the top of the valve body and is linked to the parking roller rod and manual control
valve pin.
A detent mechanism is provided to improve the gear shift feeling during manual selection.
PARKING MECHANISM
When the manual control lever is moved to the parking position, the parking roller rod moves along the parking roller
support and pushes up the parking sprag.
As a result, the parking sprag meshes with the transfer driven gear (parking gear), thereby locking the output shaft. To
minimize the operating force required, a roller is fitted to the end of the rod.
POWER TRAIN
P POSITION
Hydraulic pressure is applied to the LR brake and the RED brake, so power is not transmitted from the input shaft to
the UD clutch or OD clutch, and the output shaft is locked by the park brake pawl interlocking the park gear.
N POSITION
Hydraulic pressure is applied to the LR brake(A) and the RED brake, so power is not transmitted from the input shaft
to the UD clutch or OD clutch.

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
1. Check the automatic transmission fluid level and temperature, and the engine coolant temperature.
a. Fluid level : At the HOT mark on the oil level gauge
b. Fluid temperature : 80~100°C (176~212°F)
c. Engine coolant temperature : 80~100°C(176~212°F)
2. Prevent all the wheels from moving during the test.
3. Pull the parking brake lever up, with the brake pedal fully depressed.
4. Start the engine.

INSPECTION
1.Check for the starter motor when the ignition switch is at 'START' position and the shift lever at 'P' or 'N' range.
2. Check for the rear lamp when the ignition switch if it does not work properly.
3. Check for the inhibiter switch if it does not work properly.
4. If the inhibiter switch is not fixed in a proper position, reassemble it in the right position.
5. Re- check 1 and 2 procedures.
6. Using a scan tool, confirm the DTCs.
7. Disconnect the battery ( - ) terminal and the inhibiter switch.
8. Check for continuity between terminals at the switch connector.
