TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
5. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
6. Start the engine, then measure the line pressure at both idle andthe stall speed.
CAUTION:
 Keep the brake pedal pressed all the way down duringmeasurement.
 When measuring the line pressure at the stall speed, refer to "STALL TEST".
7. After the measurements are complete, install the oil pressure detection plug and tighten to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
 Do not reuse the O-ring.
 Apply ATF to the O-ring.

Judgement Possible cause
Idle speed Low for all positions
(“P”, “R”, “N”, “D”,
“M”)
Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and low oil pump output.
For example
Oil pump wear
 Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking or spring fatigue
Oil strainer
⇒ oil pump ⇒ pressure regulator valve passage oil leak
 Engine idle speed too low
Only low for a spe-
cific position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.
High Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the line pressure adjustment func-
tion.
For example
 Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction
 ATF temperature sensor malfunction
 Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking in OFF state, filter clog, cut line)
 Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking

Road TestINFOID:0000000001425855
DESCRIPTION
 The road test checks overall performance of the A/T and analyzes possible malfunction causes.
 The road test is carried out in the following three stages.
1. Check before engine is started.
2. Check at idle.
3. Cruise test
 Inspect all the items Part 1 to Part 3.
 Before beginning the road test, che ck the procedure and inspection items.
 Test all inspection items until the symptom is uncov ered. Diagnose NG items when all road tests are com-
plete.
CHECK BEFORE ENGINE IS STARTED
1.CHECK A/T CHECK INDICATOR LAMP
1. Park vehicle on level surface.
2. Move selector lever to “P” position.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch ON.
Does A/T CHECK indicator lamp light up for about 2 seconds?
YES - 1>> With CONSULT-III
1. Perform self-diagnostics and record all NG items on the “Diagnostic Worksheet Chart”.
2. Go to “CHECK AT IDLE”.
YES - 2>> Without CONSULT-III
1. Perform self-diagnostics and record all NG it ems on the “Diagnostic Worksheet Chart”. Refer
to AT-91, "
Diagnosis Procedure without CONSULT-III".
2. Go to “CHECK AT IDLE”.
NO >> Stop the road test and go to AT-170, "
A/T Check Indicator Lamp Does Not Come On".
CHECK AT IDLE
1.CHECK STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Park vehicle on level surface.
2. Move selector lever to “P” or “N” position.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF.
4. Start engine.
Does the engine start?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Stop the road test and go to AT-170, "
Engine Cannot Be Started in "P" or "N" Position".
Stall speedLine pressure does
not rise higher than
the line pressure for
idle.
Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the pressure adjustment function.
For example
 Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction
 TCM breakdown
 Line pressure solenoid malfunction (shorting, sticking in ON state)
 Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
 Pilot valve sticking or pilot filter clogged
The pressure rises,
but does not enter
the standard posi-
tion. Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and malfunction in the pres-
sure adjustment function.
For example
 Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction
 Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking, filter clog)
 Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
 Pilot valve sticking or pilot filter clogged
Only low for a spe-
cific position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.
