4. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid temperatures of 30° to 50°C (86° to 122°F) using
“COLD” range on ATF level gauge as follows.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear position. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove ATF level gauge and wipe clean with lint-free paper.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the fluid level gauge, always use lint-free paper, not a cloth one.
e. Re-insert ATF level gauge into charging pipe as far as it will go.
CAUTION:
To check fluid level, insert the ATF level gauge until the cap
contacts the end of the charging pipe, with the gauge
reversed from the normal attachment conditions.
f. Remove ATF level gauge and note reading. If reading is at low
side of range, add fluid to the charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
5. Increase ATF temperature by 80°C (176°F) once.
6. Make the fluid temperature approximately 65°C (149°F).
NOTE:
Fluid level will be greatly affected by temperature as shown. Therefore, be certain to perform oper-
ation while checking data with CONSULT-II.
a. Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector.

b. Select “MAIN SIGNALS” in “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-II.
c. Read out the value of “ATF TEMP 1”.
7. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of approximately 65°C
(149°F) using “HOT” range on A/T fluid level gauge.
CAUTION:

When wiping away the fluid level gauge, always use lint-
free paper, not a cloth one.

To check fluid level, insert the ATF level gauge until the
cap contacts the end of the charging pipe, with the gauge
reversed from the normal attachment conditions as
shown.
8. Check fluid condition.

If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to check operation
of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair of A/T.

If ATF contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to CO-10,
"RADIATOR" and AT-15, "A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
9. Install the removed ATF level gauge into the fluid charging pipe.
Changing A/T FluidELS001JN
1. Increase ATF temperature by 80°C (176°F) once.
2. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the tightening bolt for the ATF level gauge.
4. Drain ATF from drain plug and refill with new ATF. Always refill same volume with drained fluid.

To replace the ATF, pour in new fluid at the charging pipe with the engine idling and at the same time
drain the old fluid from the radiator cooler hose return side.

When the color of the fluid coming out is about the same as the color of the new fluid, the replacement
is complete. The amount of new transmission fluid to use should be 30 to 50% increase of the stipu-
lated amount.
CAUTION:

Use only specified ATF fluid. Do not mix with other fluid.

Using ATF other than the specified ATF fluid will cause deterioration in driveability and auto-
matic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not cov-
ered by the warranty.

When filling ATF, take care not to splash any heat generating parts such as the exhaust.
5. Increase ATF temperature by 80°C (176°F) once.
6. Check fluid level and condition. Refer to MA-21, "
Checking A/T Fluid" . If fluid is still dirty, repeat step 2.
through 5.
7. Install the removed ATF level gauge in the fluid charging pipe.

Check drum inner diameter.
Other Inspections

Check shoe sliding surface for excessive wear and damage.

Check anti-rattle pin for excessive wear and corrosion.

Check return spring for sagging.

Check adjuster for rough operation.

When disassembling adjuster, apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or equivalent to the adjuster
threads. Refer to MA-10, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Check either visually or with a vernier caliper to see if there is any excessive wear, cracks, or damage
inside drum.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Apply brake grease to the specified points during assembly. Refer to PB-6, "COMPONENTS" .

Install adjuster so that threaded part expands when rotating it in
the direction shown by the arrow.

Shorten adjuster by rotating it in the oposite direction as shown
by the arrow.
NOTE:
After replacing brake shoes or disc rotors, or if parking brake does
not function well, perform break-in operation as follows.
1. Adjust parking brake pedal stroke. Refer to PB-3, "
ADJUST-
MENT" .
2. Perform parking brake burnishing operation by driving the vehicle forward under the following conditions:Standard thickness "A" : 5.15 ± 0.25 mm

REMOVAL
1. Set the front wheels in the straight-ahead position.
2. Remove the driver air bag module. Refer to SRS-45, "
Removal and Installation" .
3. Disconnect steering wheel switches.
4. Remove the steering wheel center nut.
5. Remove the steering wheel using Tools.

switches, if required.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make
sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.6 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the knob at the top.
