DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Special Testing Procedures
The special tests are designed to aid the technician in diagnosing the hydraulic and mechanical portion
of the transmission.
Engine Idle Speed Check
Refer to the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) manual for diagnosis and testing of the
engine idle speed.
Line Pressure Test
CAUTION: Carry out the line pressure test prior to carrying out the stall speed test. If the
line pressure is low at stall, do not carry out stall speed test or further transmission damage
will occur. Do not maintain WOT in any transmission range for more than five seconds.
This test verifies that the line pressure is within specification.
1. Connect pressure gauge to line pressure tap.

Stall Speed Test
WARNING: Apply the parking brake firmly while carrying out each stall test.
CAUTION: Carry out line pressure test prior to carrying out stall test. If the line pressure is
low at stall, do not carry out stall test or further transmission damage will occur.
The stall speed test checks:
zthe torque converter clutch operation and installation.
z the holding ability of the forward clutch.
z the reverse clutch (the low- reverse bands).
z the planetary one- way clutch.
z the engine driveability.
Conduct this test with the engine coolant and transmission fluid at correct levels and at normal
operating temperature.
Apply the parking brake firmly for each stall speed test. 1. Find the specified stall rpm for the vehicle; see the stall speed diagnosis chart. Use a grease pencil to mark the rpm on the dial of a tachometer.
2. Connect a tachometer to the engine.
3. NOTE: If the rpm recorded by the tachometer exceeds the maximum limits, release the
accelerator pedal immediately because clutch or band slippage is indicated.
In each of the following ranges (D), 2, 1, R, press the accelerator pedal to the floor and hold it ·

just long enough to let the engine get to wide open throttle (WOT). While making this test, do
not hold the throttle open for more than 5 seconds at a time.
4. Note the results in each range.
5. After each range, move the shift control selector lever to NEUTRAL and run the engine at 1,000 rpm for about 15 seconds to cool the torque converter before making the next test.
6. Refer to the stall speed diagnosis chart for corrective actions.
