• The torque converter clutch piston in the torque conv erter is engaged to eliminate torque converter slip to
increase power transmission efficiency.
• The torque converter clutch control valve operation is controlled by the torque converter clutch solenoid
valve, which is controlled by a signal from TCM. The torque converter clutch control valve engages or
releases the torque converter clutch piston.
• When shifting between “N” (“P”) ⇒“D” (“R”), torque converter clutch solenoid controls engagement power of
forward clutch and reverse brake.
• The lock-up applied gear range was expanded by locking up the torque converter at a lower vehicle speed than conventional CVT
models.
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH AND SELECT CONTROL VALVE CONTROL
Lock-up and Select Control System Diagram
Lock-up Released
In the lock-up released state, the torque converter clutch control valve is set into the unlocked state by the
torque converter clutch solenoid and the lock-up apply pressure is drained.
In this way, the torque converter clutch piston is not coupled.
Lock-up Applied
In the lock-up applied state, the torque converter clutch control valve is set into the locked state by the torque
converter clutch solenoid and lock-up apply pressure is generated.
In this way, the torque converter clutch piston is pressed and coupled.
Select Control
When shifting between “N” (“P”) ⇒“D” (“R”), optimize the operating pressure on the basis of the throttle posi-
tion, the engine speed, and the secondary pulley (out put) revolution speed to lessen the shift shock.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
• Inspect for fluid leakage and check the fluid level. Refer to
CVT-14, "Checking CVT Fluid" .
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the
CVT fluid temperature is 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176° F). Inspect the
amount of CVT fluid. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test. •It is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D” position.

6. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the accelerator pedal.
7. Quickly read off the stall speed, and then quickly remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerat or pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.

9. Cool down the CVT fluid. CAUTION:
Run the engine at idle for at least 1 minute.
10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 with selector lever in “R” position.
Judgement Stall Test
O: Stall speed within standard value position.
H: Stall speed is higher than standard value.
L: Stall speed is lower than standard value.
LINE PRESSURE TEST
Line Pressure Test Port
Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil and replenish if necessary.
2. Drive the car for about 10 minutes to warm it up so that the CVT fluid reaches in the range of 50 to 80°C
(122 to 176 °F), then inspect the amount of CVT fluid and replenish if necessary.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
The CVT fluid temperature rises in the range of 50 - 80
°C (122 - 176° F) during 10 minutes of driving.
3. After warming up CVT, remove the oil pressure detection plug and install the oil pressure gauge [special service tool: - (OTC3492)].
CAUTION:
When using the oil pressure gauge, be sure to u se the O-ring attached to the oil pressure detec-
tion plug.
4. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
5. Start the engine, and then measure the line pressure at both idle and the 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" .
6. After the measurements are complete, install the oil pressure detection plug and tighten to the specified torque below.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse O-ring.
• Apply CVT fluid to O-ring.
