ROAD TEST
1. PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION
(a) Based on the result of the customer problem
analysis, try to reproduce the symptoms. If the
problem is that the transaxle does not shift up, shift
down, or the shift point is too high or too low,
conduct the following road test referring to the
automatic shift schedule and simulate the problem
symptoms.
2. ROAD TEST
NOTICE:
Perform the test at the ATF temperature 50 to 80
C
(122 to 176
F) in the normal operation.

accelerator pedal and check the following points.
(1) Check up-shift operation.
Check that 1
2, 2 3, 3 4 and 4 5th up-
shifts take place, and that the shift points
conform to the automatic shift schedule (See
page SS-31).

MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
1. PERFORM MECHANICAL SYSTEM TESTS
(a) Measure the stall speed.
The object of this test is to check the overall
performance of the transaxle and engine by
measuring the stall speeds in the D position.
NOTICE:
• Driving test should be done on a paved road
(a nonskid road).
• Perform the test at the normal operating ATF
(Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature
50 to 80
C (122 to 176F).
• Do not continuously run this test for longer
than 10 seconds.
• To ensure safety, do this test in a wide, clear
level area which provides good traction.
• The stall test should always be carried out in
pairs. One technician should observe the
conditions of wheels or wheel stoppers
outside the vehicle while the other is doing
the test.
(1) Chock the 4 wheels.
(2) Connect the intelligent tester together with the
CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle
interface module) to the DLC3.
(3) Fully apply the parking brake.
(4) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake
pedal.
(5) Start the engine.
(6) Shift into the D position. Press all the way down
on the accelerator pedal with your right foot.
(7) Quickly read the stall speed at this time.
Stall speed:
2,600 +- 150 rpm
Evaluation:
Problem Possible cause
(a) Stall engine speed is low in D position• Engine power output may be insufficient
• Stator one-way clutch not operating properly
HINT:
If the value is less than the specified value by 600 rpm or more, the
torque converter could be faulty.
(b) Stall engine speed is high in D position• Line pressure is too low
• Forward clutch slipping
• U/D (Underdrive) brake slipping
• U/D (Underdrive) one-way clutch is not operating properly
• No.1 one-way clutch not operating properly
• Improper fluid level

(b) Measure the time lag.
(1) When the shift lever is shifted while the engine is
idling, there will be a certain time lapse or lag
before the shock can be felt. This is used for
checking the condition of the clutch and brake.
NOTICE:
• Perform the test at the normal operating
ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid)
temperature: 50 to 80
C (122 to 176F).
• Be sure to allow 1 minute interval between
tests.
• Perform the test three times, and measure
the time lags. Calculate the average value
of the three time lags.
• When conducting stall test, do not
continue more than 10 seconds.
(2) Connect the intelligent tester together with the
CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle
interface module) to the DLC3.
(3) Fully apply the parking brake.
(4) Start and warm up the engine and check idle
speed.
Idle speed:
approx. 700 rpm (In N position and A/C
OFF)
(5) Shift the lever from N to D position. Using a stop
watch, measure the time from when the lever is
shifted until the shock is felt.
Time lag:
N
D less than 1.2 seconds
(6) In the same way, measure the time lag for N

R.
Time lag:
N
R less than 1.5 seconds
Evaluation (If N
D or N R time lag is longer than the specified):
Problem Possible cause
N
D time lag is longer• Line pressure is too low
• Forward clutch worn
• No.1 one-way clutch is not operating properly
• U/D (Underdrive) one-way clutch is not operating
• U/D (Underdrive) brake worn
N
R time lag is longer• Line pressure is too low
• Reverse clutch worn
• 1st and reverse brake worn
• U/D (Underdrive) brake worn

(a) Measure the line pressure.
NOTICE:
• Perform the test at the normal operating ATF
(Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature:
50 to 80
C (122 to 176F).
• The line pressure test should always be
carried out in pairs. One technician should
observe the conditions of wheels or wheel
stoppers outside the vehicle while the other
is performing the test.
• Be careful to prevent SST hose from
interfering with the exhaust pipe.
• This Check must be conducted after checking
and adjusting engine.
• Perform under condition that A/C is OFF.
• When conducting stall test, do not continue
more than 10 seconds.
(1) Warm up the ATF (Automatic Transmission
Fluid).
(2) Lift the vehicle up.

MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN
1. MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN FOR ECT TEST
(a) Perform this drive pattern as one method to
simulate the detection conditions of the ECT
malfunctions. (The DTCs may not be detected due
the actual driving conditions. And some codes may
not be detected through this drive pattern.)
HINT:
Preparation for driving
• Warm up the engine sufficiently. (Engine coolant
temperature is 60
C (140F) or higher)
• Drive the vehicle when the atmospheric
temperature is -10
C (14F) or higher.
(Malfunction is not detected when the
atmospheric temperature is less than -10
C
(14
F))
Driving note
• Drive the vehicle through all gears.
Stop
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 5th
(lock-up ON).
• Repeat the above driving pattern three times or
more.
NOTICE:
• The monitor status can be checked using the
OBD II scan tool or intelligent tester. When
using the intelligent tester, monitor status
can be found in the "ENHANCED OBD II /
DATA LIST" or under "CARB OBD II".
• In the event that the drive pattern must be
interrupted (possibly due to traffic conditions
or other factors), the drive pattern can be
resumed and, in most cases, the monitor can
be completed.
• Perform this drive pattern on a level road as
much as possible and strictly observe the
posted speed limits and traffic laws while
driving.
