DIAGNOSIS
FUNCTIONAL CHECK OF POSITIVE
CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV)
If an engine is idling rough, check for a clogged PCV or
plugged hose. Replace as required. Use the following
procedure.
1. Remove PCV from rocker arm cover.
2. Run the engine at idle.
3. If there is no vacuum at valve, check for plugged
hoses or manifold port, or PCV.
Replace plugged or deteriorated hoses.
4. Stop the engine and remove PCV. Remove
PCV hose. Inspect metered orifice for being
restricted or
plugged. If restricted clean orifice.
With this system, any
blow-by in excess of the system
capacity (from a
badly-worn engine, sustained heavy
load, etc.) is exhausted into the intake manifold and is
drawn into the engine. Proper
operation
of the PCV System is dependent
upon a
sealed engine. If oil sledging or dilution is
noted, and the PCV System is functioning properly,
malfunction
indicator lamp for possible cause and
correct to ensure that system
will function as intended.
RESULTS OF INCORRECT OPERATION
A plugged valve or hose may cause:
• Rough idle.
• Stalling
or slow idle speed.
• Oil leaks.
• Oil
in air cleaner.
• Sludge
in engine.
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
An engine which is operated without any crankcase
ventilation can be damaged. Periodically, inspect the
PCV, hoses
and clamps and replace any showing
signs
of deterioration.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 4L30-E 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.
• Winter mode-Starts in 3rd gear to reduce
slippage on ice
or snow.
• Power mode has a delayed upshift for 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 diag­
nosis in a short time when the control system fails,
thus improving serviceability.
The major features of 4L30-E 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 hy­
draulic pressure for clutch, band brake as well as
transmission so that shift feeling is improved.
• Two sets of planetary gears reduce friction of
power train.
Also, a lock-up mechanism in the torque con­
verter reduces fuel consumption.
• Wide gear ratio and high torque rate of torque
converter provide
excellent starting perform­
ance.
MODEL YEAR 1994-95 CHANGES
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) for ISUZU
TROOPER
models equipped with 4L30-E is changed
from "BOSCH" to "DELCO ELECTRONICS"
manufacture.
The main differences
which will be encountered
while servicing concerned vehicles are as follows:
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC):
DTC's are changed: For example, DTC for
transmission gear error will be as follows depending
on the TCM unit:
-
On the "DELCO" unit (1994-95) ......... DTC 61
-On the "BOSCH" unit (1993-prior) ..... DTC 41
TCM Pin Connector:
The pin connector is changed. Therefore the
connections
to be made for troubleshooting also
change.
Shift Alteration when TECH 1 Tool is connected
toTCM:
SHIFTS WILL BE HARSH WHEN TECH 1 IS
CONNECTED.
Connection of TECH 1 automatically forces maximum
line pressure during shifts only.
Normal line pressure checks at idle and stall spe
can be carried out.

1. SHIFT CONTROL
The transmission gear is shifted according to the
shift pattern selected by the driver.
~ In shifting gears, the gear ratio is controlled by the
ON/ OFF signal using the 1-2/3-4 shift solenoids and
the 2-3 shift solenoid.
2. BAND APPLY CONTROL
The band apply is controlled when in the 3-2
downshift (engine overrun prevention) and the
garage shift (shock control).
The band
apply solenoid is controlled by the signal
from the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to regulate
the
flow of the oil.
3. TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH CONTROL
The clutch ON/OFF is controlled by moving the
converter clutch valve through shifting Torque
Converter Clutch
(TCC) solenoid using the ON/OFF
signal.
4. LINE PRESSURE CONTROL
The throttle signal allows the current signal to be
sent
to the force motor. After receiving the current
signal, the force motor activates the pressure
regulator valve to regulate the line pressure.
5. ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
Several malfunction displays can be stored in the
Transmission Control Module (TCM) memory, and
read
out of it afterward.
The serial data lines, which are required for the
testing of the final assembly and the coupling to
other electronic modules, can be regulated by this
function.
6 FAIL-SAFE MECHANISM
If there is a problem in the transmission system, the
TCM will go into a "backup" mode. The vehicle can
still be driven, but the driver must use the gear
lever to shift gears.
7. TORQUE MANAGEMENT CONTROL
The TCM sends the absolute spark advance signal
to the Engine Control Module (ECM) while the
transmission is being shifted, to control the engine
spark timing in compliance with the vehicle running
condition to reduce the shocks caused by the
change of speed.
8. ATF WARNING CONTROL
The oil temperature sensor detects the ATF oil
temperature to control the oil temperature warning,
TCC and the winter mode.
9. ABS CONTROL
When the select lever is at "L" or "R" range, a
signal is sent
to the ABS controller as one of the
ABS control conditions.

WINTER DRIVE MODE
(1) Operation
The winter switch will operate when switched on after the all of following conditions are present.
Conditions:
a) The gear select position is "D" range only
b) Vehicle speed is 7mph (11 km/h) or less
c) Transmission oil temperature is 120°C (248°F) or less
d) Kick-down switch is off
e) Accelerator opening is at 8% or less.
(2) Cancel release
CD Cancellation by driver
a) Turning off the winter drive mode switch
b) Shifting select position to "3", "2", or "L"
(Winter drive mode is not canceled by selecting "D", "N", "R", or "P")
c) Ignition key is turned off
® Automatic cancellation
a) When vehicle runs at 21mph (34 km/h) or more for 1 second or more
b) When transmission oil temperature reaches 140°C (284°F) or above
Note: The mode returns
to normal drive mode automatically after the winter drive mode is canceled.
BACKUP MODE
If a major system failure occurs which could affect safety or damage the transmission under normal
vehicle operation, the diagnostic system detects the fault and overrides the TCM.
The "CHECK TRANS" light flashes to alert the driver, and the transmission must be manually shifted
as follows:
Select lever

NORMAL OPERATION OF 1994-95 4L30-E TRANSMISSION
1. TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)
APPLICATION CONDITIONS:
Engine coolant temperature must be above 70°C
(158°F).
Moreover, TCC is ON in 2nd gear during kick down
operation when engine coolant temperature is
above
70°C (158°F).
Also,
TCC is always ON in 2nd, 3rd & 4th gear when
transmission oil temperature is above 140°C
(284°F).
2. ATF WARNING LAMP
The ATF warning lamp will be constantly on (not
flashing) if the transmission oil temperature is
above
145°C (293°F).
The ATF warning lamp goes off again when the
transmission
oil temperature is below 125°C
(257°F).
3. SPECIAL SHIFT PATTERN WHEN THE
ENGINE IS COLD:
A special shift pattern is activated when the engine
coolant temperature is below 70°C (158°F). (3-4
shifts
for example are delayed for small throttle
openings and will occur a few MPH higher)
4. SHIFT ALTERATION WITH TECH1
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL CONNECTED:
Shifts will be harsh when TECH1 is connected to
TCM: Connection of TECH1 automatically forces
maximum line pressure during shifts only.

DIAGNOSIS
. .,._., INTRODUCTION
The systematic trouble shooting information covered by this Section offers a practical and systematic
approach
to diagnosing 4L30-E transmission, using information that can be obtained from road tests,
electrical diagnosis, oil pressure checks or noise evaluation.
The key to correcting a complaint is to make use of all of the available symptoms and logically letting them
direct you
to the cause.
When
dealing with automatic transmission complaints, it is best to gather as many symptoms as possible
before making the decision to remove the transmission from the vehicle.
Frequently,
the correction of the cause of the complaint does not require removal of the transmission from
the vehicle.

7 A-20 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4L30-E)
CHECKING TRANSMISSION FLUID
LEVEL AND CONDITION
Checking fluid level and condition (color and odor)
at
regular intervals will provide early diagnosis
information about the transmission. This inform­
ation may be used to correct a condition that, if not
detected early, could result in major transmission
repairs.
IMPORTANT: When new, automatic transmission
fluid is red in color. As the vehicle is driven, the
transmission
fluid will begin to look darker in color.
The
color may eventually appear light brown.
A DARK
brown color with burnt odor may indicate
excessive
fluid deterioration and signal a need for
fluid change.
FLUID LEVEL
When adding
or changing fluid, use only DEXRON
®-Ill.
Refer to the Maintenance and Lubrication (Section 0
of this manual) for maintenance information and
servicing
interval.
\f CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL
Overfilling will cause foaming, loss ~f fluid,
abnormal shifting and possible damage to
the transmission.
1. Start engine and drive vehicle until normal AfT
oil operating temperature is reached:
NOTE: The automatic transmission fluid level
must be checked with the vehicle at normal
A/T oil operating temperature: 75 TO 85°C
(167 TO 185°F) MEASURED WITH TECH1 SCAN
TOOL.
Temperature will greatly affect transmission
fluid level.
If the vehicle is not at normal AfT oil operating
temperature and the proper checking
procedures are
not followed, the result could
be a false reading of the fluid level indicator
and
an incorrect adjustment of the fluid level.
2. Park vehicle on level ground.
3. Move gear selector to "Park".
4. Apply parking brake and block wheels.
5. Allow vehicle to idle for 3 minutes with all
accessories turned off.
6. Check fluid level with engine running at idle:
Fluid should
be in "HOT" area on AfT dipstick
(Fig. 7A-6).
Check also color and condition (Refer to next
page.)

\f CAUTION:
DO NOT CHECK FLUID LEVEL UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS: •
At high ambient temperature above 30°C

Immediately after driving at sustained highway
speeds.
• In heavy city traffic during hot weather.
If vehicle is towing a trailer.
If the vehicle has been operated under these
conditions,
shut the engine off and allow the
vehicle to "cool" for thirty (30) minutes. After the
cool-down period, restart the vehicle and continue
from step 2 above.
