PRECAUTIONS
• Be sure to turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect battery negative cable from battery negative
terminal before any repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors,
solenoid valves, etc. will cause the MIL to light up.
• Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MIL to light up due to an open circuit. (Be sure the connectors are free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
• Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. Interference of the harness with a
bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to a short circuit.
• Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the TCM and
ECM before returning the vehicle to the customer.
PrecautionINFOID:0000000001703154
•Before connecting or disconnecting the TCM harness connec-
tor, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery cable
from the negative terminal. Failure to do so may damage the
TCM. Because battery voltage is applied to TCM even if igni-
tion switch is turned off.
•When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from TCM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on TCM pin
terminal, when connecting pin connectors.
•Before replacing TCM, perform TCM input/output signal
inspection and make sure whether TCM functions properly or
not. (See page AT-71, "
TCM Terminal and Reference Value".)
•After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform “DTC
(Diagnostic Trouble Code) Confirmation Procedure”.
The DTC should not be displayed in the “DTC Confirmation
Procedure” if the repair is completed.
• Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside
of the transaxle. It is important to prevent the internal parts from
becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
• Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.
• Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop
rags can leave fibers that could interfere with the operation of the A/T.
• Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
• All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.
• Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the A/T is disassembled.
• It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
• The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent springs
and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
• Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.

Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000001703230
1.CHECK DTC WITH ECM
Check DTC with CONSULT-III “ENGINE”.
Turn ignition switch ON and select “SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS” mode for “ENGINE” with CONSULT-III.
Refer to EC-109, "
CONSULT-II Function (ENGINE)" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check ignition signal circuit for engine control. Refer to EC-531
.
2.CHECK INPUT SIGNAL
With CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.
2. Select “TCM INPUT SIGNALS” in “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-III.
3. Read out the value of “ENGINE SPEED”. Check engine speed changes according to throttle position.
Without CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.
2. Check voltage between TCM harness connector terminal and
ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> GO TO 3.
3. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN TCM AND ECM
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect ECM connector and TCM connector.
3. Check continuity between ECM connector and TCM connector.
4. If OK, check harness for short to ground and short to power.
5. If OK, check continuity between body ground and transaxle
assembly.
6. Reinstall any part removed.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

7. Disconnect terminal cord assembly harness connector.
8. Remove snap ring from terminal body.
9. Remove terminal cord assembly by pushing terminal body into
transaxle case.
10. Remove control valve assembly bolts (A), (B) and (C).
Bolt length, number and location:
11. Remove control valve assembly from transaxle case.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to drop manual valve and servo release accumulator return spring.
12. Remove manual valve from control valve assembly.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to drop manual valve.
13. Remove O-ring from terminal body.
14. Disassemble and inspect control valve assembly if necessary.
Refer to AT-263, "
Control Valve Assembly", AT-272, "Control
Valve Upper Body" and AT-276, "Control Valve Lower Body".
15. Remove servo release accumulator piston and N-D accumulator
piston by applying compressed air if necessary.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
a. Apply compressed air to the oil hole as shown, and remove
servo release accumulator piston from transaxle case.
CAUTION:
Strong flow of air will push the accumulator piston out
along with a splash of ATF. To avoid this cover the area with
lint-free cloth and blow air little by little.
b. Apply compressed air to the oil hole as shown, and remove N-D
accumulator piston and return spring from transaxle case.
CAUTION:
Strong flow of air will push the accumulator piston out
along with a splash of ATF. To avoid this cover the area with
lint-free cloth and blow air little by little.
c. Remove O-rings (1) from servo release accumulator piston (2)
and N-D accumulator piston (3).
CAUTION:
Wrap the removed servo release accumulator piston (2) and
N-D accumulator piston (3) in a lint-free cloth.
16. Remove lip seals (1) from transaxle case.
Inspection
• Inspect the sliding surfaces of each accumulator piston and tran-
saxle case, and replace if damaged or dented.
(1): Servo release accumulator piston
(2): N-D accumulator piston
• Inspect the sliding surfaces of manual valve and valve body, and
replace if damaged or dented.

DISASSEMBLY
9. Set manual shaft (1) in “P” position.
10. Remove PNP switch (2) from transaxle case.
: Bolt (3)
11. Remove oil pan fitting bolts.
12. Remove oil pan and oil pan gasket.
13. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine causes of
malfunction. If the ATF is very dark, smells burned, or contains
foreign particles, frictional material (clutches, band) may need
replacement. A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates var-
nish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and clutches to
stick and can inhibit pump pressure.
•If frictional material is detected, replace radiator after
repair of A/T. Refer to CO-11
.
14. Remove magnets from oil pan.
15. Remove control valve assembly according to the following procedures.
a. Remove snap ring (1) from terminal body (2).
CAUTION:
Do not expand snap ring (1) excessively.
b. Push terminal body (2) into transaxle case.
c. Remove control valve assembly fitting bolts A, B and C.
Bolt length, number and location:
d. Remove control valve assembly from transaxle case.
