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.

PARKING BRAKE SHOE
• Check thickness of lining.
Disc Rotor Inner Diameter Inspection
• Check inner diameter insi de drum area of disc rotor.
Other Inspections
• Check shoe sliding surface on back plate for excessive wear and damage.
• Check anti-rattle pins for excessive wear and corrosion.
• Check return springs for sagging.
• Check adjuster for rough operation.
• When disassembling adjuster, apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or equivalent to the threads.
• Check either visually or with a vernier caliper to see if there is any excessive wear, cracks, or damage inside
drum area of disc rotor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Refer to PB-9, "
Removal and Installation" and apply brake grease to the specified points during assembly.
• Assemble adjuster so that threaded part expands when rotating it in the direction shown by the arrow.
• Shorten adjuster by rotating it.
NOTE:
After replacing brake shoes or disc rotors, or if brakes do not func-
tion well, perform break-in operation as follows.
1. Adjust parking brake pedal stroke. Refer to PB-5, "
On-Vehicle
Service".
CAUTION:
• To prevent lining from getting too hot, allow a cool off period
of approximately 5 minutes after every break-in operation.
• Do not perform excessive break-in operations, because it may
cause uneven or early wear of lining.
2. Perform parking brake burnishing operation by driving the vehicle forward under the following conditions:
3. After burnishing operation, check pedal stroke of parki ng brake. Readjust if it is no longer at the specified
stroke. Refer to PB-5, "
On-Vehicle Service".
