SYMPTOM PROCEDURES <AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION>

TSB Revision

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

23Ad-7

STEP 3. Check the hydraulic pressure (for low-reverse 
brake).
Measure the hydraulic pressure for low-reverse brake when the 
selector lever is at the "R" range, and check if the hydraulic 
pressure is within the standard value. Refer to 

P.23Ab-15

Hydraulic Pressure Test.
Q: Is the hydraulic pressure within the standard value?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Check the reverse clutch system and low-reverse 
brake system.
(1) Remove the valve body cover and valve body. Refer to 

P.23Aa-37

, Transmission and Transfer Assembly and refer 

to GROUP 23B, Transmission 

P.23B-18

.

(2) Blow 108 kPa (15psi) compressed air into the reverse 

clutch oil orifice of the Transmission case. Then check if the 
reverse clutch piston moves and air pressures are 
maintained in that condition. Repeat for the low-reverse 
brake.

Q: Are the reverse clutch, low-reverse brake or both air 

pressures maintained?
YES : 
Go to Step 5.
NO :  Go to Step 6.

STEP 5. Disassemble and clean the valve body.
Check the O-ring installation bolts for looseness and valve 
body for damage. Repair or replace the faulty parts. Refer to 
GROUP 23B, Valve Body 

P.23B-80

.

Replace the bulb body assembly if the damages are thought to 
be irreparable. Then check the symptom.
Q: Is the repair possible and the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Check the reverse clutch, low-reverse brake or 
both. Remove the Transmission.
Check the facing for seizure and the piston seal ring for dam-
age and interference with the retainer. Repair or replace the 
faulty parts. Refer to GROUP 23B, Transmission 

P.23B-18

Reverse and Overdrive Clutch 

P.23B-67

. Then check the 

symptom.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Go to Step 7.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

STEP 7. Replace the PCM.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Start over at Step 1.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 4: Does not Move (Forward or Backward)

.

COMMENT
If the vehicle does not move forward or backward 
when the selector lever is shifted to any position 
while the engine is idling, the cause is probably 
abnormal line pressure, or a malfunction of the 
power train, oil pump or valve body.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this case:)

• Abnormal line pressure

• Malfunction of the power train

• Malfunction of the oil pump

• Malfunction of the valve body

• Low A/T fluid level

• Malfunction of the PCM

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the hydraulic pressure.
Measure the hydraulic pressure of each element when the 
transmission is in 1st, 2nd or reverse. Check if each hydraulic 
pressure is within the standard value. Refer to 

P.23Ab-15

Hydraulic Pressure Test. If some elements are within the stan-
dard value and some are not, recheck the symptom.
Q: Are all pressures within the standard value?

YES : Check transmission fluid level and condition. If not 

OK, repair or replace as necessary, then recheck 
symptom. If OK, go to Step 3.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Disassemble and clean the valve body.
Check the O-ring installation bolts for looseness and valve 
body for damage. Repair or replace the faulty parts. Refer to 
GROUP 23B, Valve Body 

P.23B-80

.

Replace the valve body assembly if the damages are thought 
to be irreparable. Then check the symptom.
Q: Is the repair possible and the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Go to Step 4.

STEP 3. Check the transmission power train components.
Disassemble the transmission and check the planetary carrier 
and output shaft, etc. Repair or replace the damaged parts. 
Refer to GROUP 23B, Transmission 

P.23B-18

, Low-Reverse 

Annulus Gear 

P.23B-72

. Then check the symptom.

Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Replace the oil pump.
(1) Remove the transmission.
(2) Replace the oil pump (Oil pump cannot be repaired). Refer 

to GROUP 23B, Transmission 

P.23B-18

. Then check the 

symptom.

Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Replace the PCM.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Start over at Step 1.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5: Engine Stalls when Moving Selector Lever from "N" to "D" or "N" to "R"

.

COMMENT
If the engine stalls when the selector lever is shifted 
from "N" to "D" or "R" range while the engine is idling, 
the cause is probably a malfunction of the engine 
system, torque converter clutch solenoid valve, valve 
body or torque converter (torque converter clutch 
malfunction).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the engine system

• Malfunction of the torque converter clutch sole-

noid

• Malfunction of the valve body

• Malfunction of the torque converter (Malfunction 

of the torque converter clutch)

• Malfunction of the PCM
