5. Drive the vehicle to increase the ATF temperature to 80° C (176 ° F).
6. Allow the ATF temperature to fall to approximately 65 °C (149° F). Use the CONSULT-III to monitor the ATF
temperature as follows:
NOTE:
ATF level will be greatly affected by temperature as shown. Therefore monitor the ATF temperature data
using the CONSULT-III.
a. Connect CONSULT-III to data link connector.
b. Select “MAIN SIGNALS” in “DATA MONI TOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-III.
c. Read out the value of “ATF TEMP 1”.
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 ch arging 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 TM-178, "
Checking the A/T Fluid (ATF)". 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 level gauge bolt.

5. Allow the A/T fluid temperature to fall to approximately 65 °C (149° F). Use the CONSULT-III to monitor the
A/T fluid temperature as follows:
NOTE:
The A/T fluid level will be significantly affected by the A/T fluid temperature as shown. Therefore monitor
the A/T fluid temperature data using the CONSULT-III.
a. Connect CONSULT-III to data link connector.
b. Select “MAIN SIGNALS” in “DATA MO NITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-III.
c. Read out the value of “ATF TEMP 1”.
6. Re-check the A/T fluid level at A/T fluid temperatures of approxi-
mately 65° C (149°F) using the “HOT” range on the A/T fluid
level gauge as shown. The HOT range is between 50 ° - 80° C
(122° - 176 ° F).
CAUTION:
• When wiping the A/T fluid from the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free paper, not a cloth.
• To check the A/T fluid level, insert the A/T fluid level gauge until the cap contacts the top of the A/T fluid charg-
ing pipe, with the gauge reversed from the normal
inserted position as shown.
7. Check the A/T fluid condition. • If the A/T fluid is very dark or has some burned smell, there
may be an internal problem with the transmission. Refer to
TM-182, "
A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning". Flush the transmission
cooling system after repairing the transmission.
• If the A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), replace the radiator and flush the transmission cooler
lines using cleaning solvent and compressed air after repairing
the transmission.
8. Install the A/T fluid level gauge in the A/T fluid charging pipe.
9. Tighten the A/T fluid level gauge bolt to specification.
