AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4L30-E) 7 A-39
CHART 16: POSSIBLE CAUSES OF TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKS
Before attempting to correct an oil leak, the actual source of the leak must be determined. In many cases,
the source
of the leak may be difficult to determine due to "wind flow" around the engine and
transmission.
The suspected area
should be wiped clean of all oil before inspecting for the source of the leak.
Oil leaks
around the engine and transmission are generally carried toward the rear of the car by the air
stream. For example, a transmission "OIL FILLER TUBE TO CASE" leak will sometimes appear as a leak at
the rear
of the transmission. In determining the source of an leak, the following two checks should be
made:
1. With the engine running, check for external line pressure leaks.
2. With the engine off, check for oil leaks due to the raised oil level caused by drainback of converter oil
into the transmission.

STALL TEST
The stall test allows you to check the transmission for
internal abrasion and the oneway clutch for slippage.
Torque converter performance can also be evaluated.
The
stall test results together with the road test results
will identify transmission components requiring ser
vicing or adjustment.
Stall Test Procedure:
1. Check the level of the engine coolant, the engine
oil, and the automatic transmission fluid.
Replenish
if necessary.
2. Block the wheels and set the parking brake.
3. Connect a tachometer to the engine.
4. Start the engine and allow it to idle until the
engine coolant temperature reaches
70 -8o·c
(158 -176.F).
5. Hold the brake pedal down as far as it will go.
6. Place the selector in the "D" range.
7. Gradually push the accelerator pedal to the floor.
The throttle valve
will be fully open.
Note the engine speed at which the tachometer
needle stabilizes.

VI Do not continuously run this test longer than 5
........, seconds.
8. Release the accelerator pedal.
9. Place the selector in the "N" range.
10. Run the engine at 1,200 rpm for one minute.
This
will cool the transmission fluid.
11. Repeat Steps 7-10 for the "3", "2", "L" and "R"
ranges.

LINE PRESSURE TEST
The line pressure test checks oil pump and control
valve
pressure regulator valve function. It will also
detect oil leakage.
Line Pressure Test Procedure:
1. Check the level of the engine coolant, the engine
oil, and the automatic transmission fluid.
Replenish
if required.
2. Block the wheels and set the parking brake.
3. Remove the pressure detection plug at the left
side of the transmission case.
Set pressure gauge, adapter
to the pressure
l"iC\1 detection plug hole. (Fig. 7 A-6a)

coolant temperature reaches 70 -80°C
(158-176°F).
Hold
the brake pedal down as far as it will go.

idling.
Gradually
push the accelerator pedal to the
floor. The throttle valve will be fully open.
Note the pressure gauge reading
with the
accelerator
pedal fully depressed.
NOTE:
Do not continuously run this test longer than 5
seconds.
Release the accelerator pedal.
Place
the selector in the "N" range.
Run the engine at
1,200 rpm for one minute.
This
will cool the transmission fluid.
12. Repeat Steps 7-11 for the "3", "2", "L", and
"R" ranges.
13.
Install a pressure detection plug to the
transmission case,
applying recommended
thread
locking agent (LOCTITE 242) or its
equivalent to thread
of plug. Make sure that
thread is cleaned before applying locking
agents.
14. Tighten the pressure detection plug to the
specified torque.

ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSIS
HOW TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM
~ 1. To avoid incorrect diagnostics: this book needs
to be followed accurately. Unless stated: do
not jump
directly to a section that could
contain the solution: some important
information may be missed.
2. The sections in CAPITALS and bold are the
main sections that can be found in the
contents.
3. The GOTO "SECTION" means to continue to
check going to the "section".
4. The GOTHROUGH "SECTION" means to go
through the "section" and then to go back to
the place the GOTHROUGH was written.
5. BASIC ELECTRIC CIRCUITS:
You should understand the basic theory of
electricity. This will include the meaning of
voltage, amps, ohms, and what happens in a
circuit with an open or shorted wire. You
should also be able to read and understand
wiring diagrams.
6. IGNITION CYCLE:
When the car is driven a malfunction can occur
due to a car wiring harness problem, in this
case the driver can reset the system (as on a
personal computer). To reset the computer he
must: (
1) Stop the car and the engine.
(2) Turn the key ignition OFF.
(3) Turn the key ignition ON.

DIAGNOSTIC CHECK
This test determines if the transmission itself or its
~ inputs or outputs connections or sensors are failing.
IF you have a scan tool TECH1:
NO: Use the CHECK TRANS Indicator diagnostic
codes
GOTO FLASHING CODES.
YES:
1. Connect the TECH1: GOTHROUGH TECH1
CONNECTION.
2. Turn on the ignition but not the engine.
3. Push "F2" on TECH1 to see the Diagnostic
Trouble Code (OTC):
4. IF you have DTC?
YES: write down all code numbers and do the
DTCCHECK
NO: the DTC can not help you finding the
problem.
(1) GOTHROUGH "CHECK TRANS" CHECK
(2) IF it is flashing and the flash is 0.2 seconds
ON and 0.2 seconds OFF (Fig. 7A-8), this
means that you
should have a DTC stored.
Please recheck GOTO DIAGNOSTIC
CHECK and if you find the same problem
GOTO

(3) IF the CHECK TRANS indicator is not
........,. flashing GOTO WITHOUT DTC SET.

4. CASE it is staying ON always when Ignition is

(1) This means that connection between the
Lamp and the TCM is shorted to ground
(Fig. 7 A-8c).
(2) Verify if instrument panel terminal 7 of
connector 1-1 is shorted to ground.
(3) Verify if the TCM connector C-91 terminal
C10 is shorted to ground.
(4) Verify that the instrument panel terminal 6
of connector 1-1 is connected to Battery.

Fig. 7A-8a 5. CASE it is staying OFF with the ignition ON
(engine OFF). 3. CASE the CHECK TRANS indicator is flashing
always and the flash is 0.4 seconds ON and 0.4
second OFF.
(1) This means that the Transmission Control
Module (TCM) is in flashing code mode.
This mode is only used for service. This
mode is set when the Terminal 1 of
diagnostic connector C-92 is set to
ground. To go out of this mode see Fig.
7A-8b.
(2) Check
if terminal 1 of diagnostic con
nector C-92 is shorted to ground. (Voltage
is
about 0 volts when there is a short to
ground instead of 5 volts).
(3) Check if TCM terminal 016 has the same
problem.
(4) Remove the short circuit to ground due to
wiring problems.
(5) IF problem solved: GOTO CHECK TRANS
INDICATOR.
NO: GOTO TCM MEM-CAL REPLACE
MENT.
(1) This means that connection between the
Lamp and the TCM is shorted to battery or
opened (Fig. 7 A-8c).
(2) Verify if instrument panel terminal 7 of
connector 1-1 is shorted to battery or
open.
(3)
Verify if the TCM connector C-91 terminal
C1 0 is shorted to battery or open.
(4)
Verify that the instrument panel terminal 6
of connector 1-1 is connected to Battery. If
not check the Fuses and the connections
(terminal 10 of connector H-25) voltage.
(5) IF problem solved: GOTO CHECK TRANS
INDICATOR.
NO: GOTO TCM MEM-CAL REPLACE
