TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
6. CHECK LOCK-UP
When releasing accelerator pedal from D5, check lock-up from D5 to L/U.

Refer to AT- 6 0 , "Vehicle Speed When Shifting Gears" .
With CONSULT-II
Select “TCC SOLENOID 0.00A ” with the “MAIN SIGNAL ” mode for A/T.
Does it lock-up?
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “A/T Does Not Perform Lock-up” on the diagnostics worksheet, then con-
tinue the road test.
7. CHECK LOCK-UP HOLD
Does it maintain lock-up status?
YES >> GO TO 8.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “A/T Does Not Hold Lock-up Condition ” on the diagnostics worksheet, then
continue the road test.
8. CHECK LOCK-UP RELEASE
Check lock-up cancellation by depressing brake pedal lightly to decelerate. With CONSULT-II
Select “TCC SOLENOID 0.00A ” with the “MAIN SIGNAL ” mode for A/T.
Does lock-up cancel?
YES >> GO TO 9.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Lock-up Is Not Released” on the diagnostics worksheet, then continue the
road test.
9. CHECK SHIFT-DOWN D5 → D4
Decelerate by pressing lightly on the brake pedal. With CONSULT-II
Read the gear position and engine speed.
When the A/T shift-down D5
→ D4, does the engine speed drop smoothly back to idle?
YES >> 1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Go to Cruise test - Part 2 (Refer to AT- 5 8
).
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Engine Speed Does Not Return to Idle” on the diagnostics worksheet, then continue the road test. Go to Cruise test - Part 2 (Refer to AT- 5 8
).
Cruise Test - Part 2ECS00CEI
1. CHECK STARTING FROM D1
1. Move selector lever the “D ” position.
2. Accelerate at half throttle.
With CONSULT-II
Read the gear position.
Does it start from D1?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Cannot Be Started From D1 ” on the diagnostics worksheet, then
continue the road test.

2. CHECK SHIFT-UP D1 → D2
Press the accelerator pedal down all the way and inspect whether or not the transmission shifts up (D1 → D2)
at the correct speed.

Refer to AT- 6 0 , "Vehicle Speed When Shifting Gears" .
With CONSULT-II
Read the gear position, throttle position and vehicle speed.
Does the A/T shift-up D1
→ D2 at the correct speed?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Shift: D1 → D2 ” on the diagnostics worksheet, then con-
tinue the road test.
3. CHECK SHIFT-UP D2 → D3
Press the accelerator pedal down all the way and inspect whether or not the transmission shifts up (D2 → D3)
at the correct speed.

Refer to AT- 6 0 , "Vehicle Speed When Shifting Gears" .
With CONSULT-II
Read the gear position, throttle position and vehicle speed.
Does the A/T shift-up D2
→ D3 at the correct speed?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Shift: D2 → D3 ” on the diagnostics worksheet, then con-
tinue the road test.
4. CHECK SHIFT-UP D3 → D4 AND ENGINE BRAKE
When the transmission changes speed D3 → D4, return the accelerator pedal.
Does the A/T shift-up D3
→ D4 and apply the engine brake?
YES >> 1. Stop the vehicle.
2. See AT- 5 9 , "
Cruise Test - Part 3" .
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Shift: D3 → D4 ” on the diagnostics worksheet, then con-
tinue the road test.
Cruise Test - Part 3ECS00CEJ
1. CHECK SHIFT-DOWN
During D
5 driving, move gear selector from D → 4 → 3 → 2 → 1.
With CONSULT-II
Read the gear position.
Is downshifting correctly performed?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle does not shift ” at the corresponding position (5th → 4th, 4th → 3rd,
3rd → 2nd, 2nd → 1st) on the diagnostics worksheet, then continue the road test.
2. CHECK ENGINE BRAKE
Does engine braking effectively reduce speed in 1
1 position?
YES >> 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Carry out the self-diagnostics. Refer to AT- 8 6 , "
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULT MODE" .
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Decelerate By Engine Brake ” on the diagnostics work-
sheet, then continue trouble diagnosis.
