CHECKING THE OIL PRESSURE IN THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
WARNING: Clean the flexible pipe of the tool [1] each time before use; the different
automatic gearbox oils cannot be intermixed.
Fit the tool [1]on the tool [2].
Perform the following operations:
- Raise the vehicle, wheels hanging.
- Apply the parking brake.
- Start the engine.
- Check the oil pressure.
WARNING: Wait for the gearbox oil to reach a temperature between 58°C and 68°C.
Check the level of oil in the gearbox (see corresponding operation).
NOTE:Check the temperature of the oil using the diagnostic tool in parameter measures.
Gear lever position: D.
Engine speed: Idling.
Principal oil pressure: 3.7 to 4.2 bars.

CHECKING THE OIL PRESSURE IN THE AM6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Checking the torque converter.
WARNING: This check has to be of short duration (2 seconds), as it causes a rapid
rise in the temperature of the oil in the automatic gearbox.
Respect the following checking conditions:
- Engine at operating temperature.
- Gear lever in position D.
- Press on the brake pedal.
- Accelerate the engine to the maximum engine speed (see below).
Gear lever position.: D.
Maximum engine speed for ES9A : 2400 ± 50 rpm.
Maximum engine speed for DT17 : 2600 ± 50 rpm.
Diagnosis:
- If the maximum engine speed obtained is lower than the value indicated, the torque
converter is the cause.
- If the maximum engine speed obtained is higher than the value indicated, the automatic
gearbox is the cause (slipping).
Additional operations.
Remove tools [1]and [2].
Refit the screw (2), with a new seal.
Reposition the pipe (1).
Refit the air filter housing.

(9)Front RH wheel travel sensor
The wheel travel sensor defines the angular position of the suspension lower arm.
Identification of the sensors:
- Front RH wheel travel sensor: Yellow.
- Front LH wheel travel sensor: Red.
- Rear RH wheel travel sensor: Green.
- Rear LH wheel travel sensor: Blue.
IMPERATIVE: Before operating on a wheel travel sensor, uncouple its rod so as not to
go past the maximum angular travel (see corresponding operation).
The suspension pressure sensors (7)informs the suspension ECU (CSS)of the pressure in
the hydraulic high pressure pipes of the front suspension.
The sensor (13)informs the suspension ECU (CSS)of the pressure in the hydraulic high
pressure pipes of the rear suspension.
