Service Precaution
WARNING: THIS VEHICLE HAS A SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS). REFER TO THE SRS
COMPONENT AND WIRING LOCATION VIEW IN
ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOU ARE
PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING. WHEN YOU
ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE
SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING, REFE
R
TO THE SRS SERVICE INFORMATION. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN
POSSIBLE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL
INJURY, OR OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM
REPAIRS.
CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, o
r
other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener.
When you install fasteners, use the correct
tightening sequence and specifications. Following
these instructions can help you avoid damage to
parts and systems.
General Description
The AW30-40LE is a 4–speed fully automatic
transmission. It uses a microcomputer as a control unit
to judge running conditions including throttle opening
rate and vehicle speed, then it sets the shifting point in
the optimum timing so that best driving performance
can be achieved.
In addition, the built–in shift mode select function can
select three shift modes according to the driver's
preference:
 Normal mode –Normal shift pattern.
 3rd Start mode –Starts in 3rd gear to reduce
slippage on ice or snow.
 Power mode has a delayed up shift when more
powerful acceleration is required.
Also, the built–in fail–safe function (“backup mode")
assures driving performance even if the vehicle speed
sensor, throttle signal or any solenoid fails.
Further, the self–diagnostic function conducts diagnosis
in a short time when the control system fails, thus
improving serviceability.
The major features of AW30-40LE are as follows:

A compact structure consisting of 2 sets of planetary
gears and flat torque converter.
 Electronic control selects the optimum shift mode according to the driving conditions.
 Electronic control maintains the optimum hydraulic
pressure for clutch, band brake as well as
transmission so that shift feeling is improved.
 Two sets of planetary gears reduce friction of powe
r
train.
Also, a lockup mechanism in the torque converter
reduces fuel consumption.
 Wide gear ratio and high torque rate of torque
converter provide excellent starting performance.

SERVICE PROGRAMMING SYSTEM (SPS)
The procedure to program the control unit by using the
Service Programming System (SPS) software
contained in TIS2000 is explained below.
NOTE:






Should Tech2 display "SPS Procedure was not
successful", engine will not start, but no DTCs
are present, low battery voltage or poo
r
electrical connections should be the primary
suspects. Perform the SPS procedure again
after rectifying the fault/s.


IMPORTANT:
Perform the following checks before attempting to
program the control unit:







The Tech2 PCMCIA card is programmed with
the latest software release.







The latest release of TIS2000 is loaded on the
PC.







The vehicle battery is fully charged.







The control unit to be programmed is
connected to the vehicle.
1. Preparations of TIS 2000
1.
Connect Tech 2 to P/C.
2.
Check to see if Hardware Key is plugged into Port.
3.
Activate TIS 2000 by P/C.
4.
On the activating screen of TIS2000, choose
"Service Programming System"





5.
On the screen of "Diagnostic Tester and
Processing Program Selection", choose the one
that will comply with the following.

instance, as Tech-2 starts asking whether to keep
the data or to continue obtaining anew data from
the control unit, choose either of them.





6.
If you select “continue ”, you have to select “Model
Year ”, “Vehicle Type ”, “Controller Type (Engine) ”.
7.
After that. then push button and turn Ignition
switch tuned on, off, on following Tech-2 display.
Tech-2 will read information from controller afte
r
this procedure.
8.
During obtaining information, Tech-2 is receiving
information from the control unit chosen. In
replacing the control unit, please be sure to
undertake "Obtaining Information" from the new
unit. With VIN not being programmed into the new
control unit at the time of shipment, "obtaining
information" is not complete (because the vehicle
model, engine model and model year are specified
from VIN). For the procedure get additional
information on vehicles, instruction will be
provided in dialog form, when TIS2000 is in
operation.
9.
Following instructions by Tech-2, push the "Exit"
switch of Tech-2, turn off the ignition of the vehicle
and turn off the power of Tech-2, thereby
removing from the vehicle.
