•After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform “DTC
(Diagnostic Trouble Code) CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE”.
If the repair is completed the DTC should not be displayed in
the “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE”.
• Always use the specified brand of ATF. Refer to MA-10
.
• Use paper rags not cloth rags during work.
• After replacing the ATF, dispose of the waste oil using the methods prescribed by law, ordinance, etc.
• Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the transmission. It is important to pre-
vent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
• Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.
• Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could interfere
with the operation of the transmission.
• Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
• All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.
• Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.
• It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
• The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent springs
and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
• Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
• Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings and
seals, or hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.
• Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
• Clean or replace ATF cooler if excessive foreign material is found in oil pan or clogging strainer. Refer to AT-
15, "A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning".
• After overhaul, refill the transmission with new ATF.
• When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque con-
verter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under “Changing A/T Fluid” in the AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer to
AT-13, "
Changing Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)", AT-13, "Checking Automatic Transmission Fluid
(ATF)".
Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000003532221
ATF COOLER SERVICE
If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if an A/T is repaired, overhauled, or replaced,
inspect and clean the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiator or replace the radiator. Flush cooler lines using
cleaning solvent and compressed air after repair. For A/T fluid cooler cleaning procedure, refer to AT-15, "
A/T
Fluid Cooler Cleaning". For radiator replacement, refer to CO-13.
CHECKING AND CHANGING A/T FLUID SERVICE
Increase ATF temperature by 80°C (176°F) once, and then check ATF level in 65°C (149°F) when adjusting
ATF level.
NOTE:
JA60 uses both systems of a water-cooling and of an air-cooling. Air-cooling system has a by-pass valve.
When ATF temperature is not over 50°C (122°F) with water-cooling system OFF, it does not flow to air-cooling
system. If ATF level is set without the flow of ATF, the level will be 10mm lower than the standard. Therefore,
piping should be filled with ATF when adjusting level.
OBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSIS
• A/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. Refer to the table on AT-83,
"CONSULT-II Function (A/T)" for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic result.

7. Re-check the ATF level at ATF temperatures of approximately
65°C (149°F) using the “HOT” range on the ATF level gauge as
shown.
CAUTION:
• When wiping the ATF from the ATF level gauge, always
use lint-free paper, not a cloth.
• To check the ATF level, insert the ATF level gauge until the
cap contacts the top of the charging pipe, with the gauge
reversed from the normal inserted position as shown.
8. Check the ATF condition.
• If the ATF is very dark or has some burned smell, there may be an internal problem with the transmis-
sion. Refer to AT-165
. Flush the transmission cooling system after repairing the transmission.
• If the ATF contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), replace the radiator and flush the transmis-
sion cooler lines using cleaning solvent and compressed air after repairing the transmission.
9. Install the ATF level gauge in the ATF charging pipe and install the ATF level gauge bolt.
10. Tighten the level gauge bolt to specification.
A/T Fluid Cooler CleaningINFOID:0000000003532226
Whenever an automatic transmission is repaired, overhauled, or replaced, the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the
radiator must be inspected and cleaned.
Metal debris and friction material, if present, can become trapped in the A/T fluid cooler. This debris can con-
taminate the newly serviced A/T or, in severe cases, can block or restrict the flow of A/T fluid. In either case,
malfunction of the newly serviced A/T may result.
Debris, if present, may build up as A/T fluid enters the cooler inlet. It will be necessary to back flush the cooler
through the cooler outlet in order to flush out any built up debris.
A/T FLUID COOLER CLEANING PROCEDURE
1. Position an oil pan under the automatic transmission's inlet and outlet cooler hoses.
2. Identify the inlet and outlet fluid cooler hoses.

The necessary and adequate line pressure for shift change is set.
For this reason, line pressure pattern setting corresponds to input
torque and gearshift selection. Also, line pressure characteristic is
set according to engine speed, during engine brake operation.
At Low Fluid Temperature
When the A/T fluid temperature drops below the prescribed tempera-
ture, in order to speed up the action of each friction element, the line
pressure is set higher than the normal line pressure characteristic.
Shift ControlINFOID:0000000003532234
The clutch pressure control solenoid is controlled by the signals from the switches and sensors. Thus, the
clutch pressure is adjusted to be appropriate to the engine load state and vehicle driving state. It becomes
possible to finely control the clutch hydraulic pressure with high precision and a smoother shift change charac-
teristic is attained.
SHIFT CHANGE
The clutch is controlled with the optimum timing and oil pressure by the engine speed, engine torque informa-
tion, etc.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the A/
T fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). Inspect the
amount of ATF. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Engine start, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.
5. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the
accelerator pedal.
6. Quickly read off the stall speed, then quickly remove your foot
from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.
7. Move the selector lever to the “N” position.
8. Cool down the ATF.
CAUTION:
Run the engine at idle for at least one minute.

Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil and replenish if necessary.
2. Drive the car for about 10 minutes to warm it up so that the ATF reaches in range of 50 to 80°C (122 to
176°F), then inspect the amount of ATF and replenish if necessary.
NOTE:
The automatic fluid temperature rises in range of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) during 10 minutes of
driving.
3. After warming up remove the oil pressure detection plug and
install the oil pressure gauge [ST2505S001(J-34301-C)].
CAUTION:
When using the oil pressure gauge, be sure to use the O-
ring attached to the oil pressure detection plug.
