• Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings and
seals, or hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.
• Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
• Clean or replace ATF cooler if excessive foreign material is found in oil pan or clogging strainer. Refer to
Refer to .
• After overhaul, refill the A/T with new ATF.
• When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque con-
verter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under “Changing A/T Fluid” in the AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer to
MA-22, "
Changing A/T Fluid", MA-22, "Checking A/T Fluid".
Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000001703155
ATF COOLER SERVICE
If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if an A/T is repaired, overhauled, or replaced,
inspect and clean the A/T oil cooler mounted in the radiator or replace the radiator. Flush cooler lines using
cleaning solvent and compressed air after repair. Check Service Bulletins for latest A/T oil cooler cleaning pro-
cedure. For radiator replacement, refer to Refer to CO-11
.
TORQUE CONVERTER SERVICE
The torque converter should be replaced under any of the following conditions:
• External leaks in the hub weld area.
• Converter hub is scored or damaged.
• Converter pilot is broken, damaged or fits poorly into crankshaft.
• Steel particles are found after flushing the cooler and cooler lines.
• Pump is damaged or steel particles are found in the converter.
• Vehicle has TCC shudder and/or no TCC apply. Replace only after all hydraulic and electrical diagnoses
have been made. (Converter clutch material may be glazed.)
• Converter is contaminated with engine coolant containing antifreeze.
• Internal malfunction of stator roller clutch.
• Heavy clutch debris due to overheating (blue converter).
• Steel particles or clutch lining material found in fluid filter or on magnet when no internal parts in unit are
worn or damaged — indicates that lining material came from converter.
The torque converter should not be replaced if:
• The fluid has an odor, is discolored, and there is no evidence of metal or clutch facing particles.
• The threads in one or more of the converter bolt holes are damaged.
• A/T malfunction did not display evidence of damaged or worn internal parts, steel particles or clutch plate lin-
ing material in unit and inside the fluid filter.
• Vehicle has been exposed to high mileage (only). The exception may be where the torque converter clutch
dampener plate lining has seen excess wear by vehicles operated in heavy and/or constant traffic, such as
taxi, delivery or police use.
OBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSIS
• A/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. The results can be read through
the blinking pattern of the OD OFF indicator lamp or the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Refer to the table
on AT-78, "
Diagnosis Procedure without CONSULT-III" for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic
result.
• The self-diagnostic results indicated by the MIL are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM memo-
ries.
Always perform the procedure “HOW TO ERASE DTC” on AT-36, "
OBD-II Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC)" to complete the repair and avoid unnecessary blinking of the MIL.
• The following self-diagnostic items can be detected using ECM self-diagnostic results mode* only when the
OD OFF indicator lamp does not indicate any malfunctions.
-PNP switch
- A/T 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gear function
*: For details of OBD-II, refer to AT- 3 6
.
•Certain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use a new style slide-lock-
ing type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-65
.

A/T FLUID
Checking A/T FluidINFOID:0000000001703158
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for A/T fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, A/T fluid level can be checked at A/T fluid tem-
peratures of 30 to 50°C (86 to 122°F) using the “COLD” range
on A/T fluid level gauge.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check A/T fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and wipe clean with lint-free cloth.
CAUTION:
When wiping the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free
cloth.
e. Re-insert A/T fluid level gauge into A/T fluid charging pipe as far
as it will go.
CAUTION:
Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging
pipe using the stopper attached.
f. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and note reading. If reading is at
low side of range, add A/T fluid to the A/T fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes.
5. Re-check A/T fluid level at A/T fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) using “HOT” range on A/T
fluid level gauge.
CAUTION:
• When wiping the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free cloth.
• Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging pipe using the stopper attached.
6. Check A/T fluid condition and make any necessary repairs. Refer to AT-48, "
Inspections Before Trouble
Diagnosis". If the A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if the A/T is repaired, over-
hauled, or replaced, inspect and clean the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiator. Refer to AT-16, "
A/T
Fluid Cooler Cleaning".
7. Install the removed A/T fluid level gauge into the A/T fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging pipe using the stopper attached.
Changing A/T FluidINFOID:0000000001703159
1. Warm up A/T fluid.
2. Stop engine.
3. Drain A/T fluid by removing the drain plug. Reinstall the drain plug to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse drain plug gasket.
4. Refill the transaxle with new specified A/T fluid through the A/T fluid charging pipe. Always refill the tran-
saxle with the same volume of A/T fluid that was drained out.

A/T FLUID
1. Inspect the coffee filter for debris.
a. If small metal debris less than 1mm (0.040 in) in size or metal
powder is found in the coffee filter, this is normal. If normal
debris is found, the A/T fluid cooler/radiator can be re-used and
the procedure is ended.
b. If one or more pieces of debris are found that are over 1mm
(0.040 in) in size and/or peeled clutch facing material is found in
the coffee filter, the A/T fluid cooler is not serviceable. The A/T
fluid cooler/radiator must be replaced and the inspection proce-
dure is ended. Refer to CO-11
.
A/T FLUID COOLER FINAL INSPECTION
After performing all procedures, ensure that all remaining oil is cleaned from all components.

• *1: Operates when OD OFF. (OD OFF indicator lamp is on.)
• *2: Oil pressure is applied to both 2nd “apply” side and 3rd “release” side of band servo piston. However, brake band does not contract
because oil pressure area on the “release” side is greater than that on the “apply” side.
• *3: Oil pressure is applied to 4th “apply” side on condition *2 above, and brake band contracts.
• *4: A/T will not shift to 4th when OD OFF. (OD OFF indicator lamp is on.)
• : Operates.
• A: Operates when throttle opening is less than specification**, activating engine brake.
• B: Operates during “progressive” acceleration.
• C: Operates but does not affect power transmission.
• D: Operates when throttle opening is less than specification**, but does not affect engine brake.
- **: Overrun clutch remains in engaged condition when throttle opening is less than 1/16.
POWER TRANSMISSION
“N” and “P” Positions
• “N” position
Power from the input shaft is not transmitted to the output shaft because the clutches do not operate.
• “P” position
Similar to the “N” position, the clutches do not operate. The parking pawl engages with the parking gear to
mechanically hold the output shaft so that the power train is locked.

•Low & reverse brakeAs overrun clutch engages, rear internal gear is locked by the operation of low and re-
verse brake.
This is different from that of D

Engine brake Overrun clutch always engages, therefore engine brake can be obtained when deceler-
ating.
