POWER STEERING SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
PUMP PRESSURE TEST
(1) Check belt tension and adjust as necessary.
(2) Disconnect high pressure hose at gear or pump.
Use a container for dripping fluid.
(3) Connect Gauge 7617 to both hoses using
adapter fitting (Fig. 1). Connect spare pressure hose
to gear or pump.
(4) Open the test valve completely.
(5) Start engine and let idle.
(6) Check fluid level, add fluid as necessary.
(7) Gauge should read below 862 kPa (125 psi), if
above, inspect the hoses for restrictions and repair as
necessary. The initial pressure should be in the range
of 345-552 kPa (50-80 psi).CAUTION: The following test procedure involves
testing maximum pump pressure output and flow
control valve operation. Do not leave valve closed
for more than 5 seconds as the pump could be
damaged.
(8) Close valve fully three times and record highest
pressure indicated each time.All three readings
must be above specifications and within 345
kPa (50 psi) of each other.
²Pressures above specifications but not within 345
kPa (50 psi) of each other, replace pump.
²Pressures within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other
but below specifications, replace pump.
CAUTION: Do not force the pump to operate against
the stops for more than 2 to 4 seconds at a time.
Pump damage will result.
(9) Open the test valve, turn steering wheel ex-
treme left and right positions against the stops.
Record the highest indicated pressure at each posi-
tion. Compare readings to specifications. If highest
output pressures are not the same against either
stop, the gear is leaking internally and must be re-
paired.

(3) Install flow control valve in pump housing and
tighten to 75 Nzm (55 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Install pressure hose to valve.
POWER STEERING PUMPÐINITIAL OPERATION
CAUTION: The fluid level should be checked with
engine off to prevent injury from moving compo-
nents. Use only Mopar Power Steering Fluid. Do not
use automatic transmission fluid. Do not overfill.
Wipe filler cap clean, then check the fluid level.
The dipstick should indicate FULL COLD when the
fluid is at normal temperature 21ÉC to 27ÉC (70ÉF to
80ÉF).
(1) Fill the pump fluid reservoir to the proper level
and let the fluid settle for at least two (2) minutes.
(2) Start the engine and let run for a few seconds.
Then turn the engine off.
(3) Add fluid if necessary. Repeat the above proce-
dure until the fluid level remains constant after run-
ning the engine.
(4) Raise the front wheels off the ground.
(5) Start the engine. Slowly turn the steering
wheel right and left, lightly contacting the wheel
stops.
(6) Add power steering fluid if necessary.
(7) Lower the vehicle and turn the steering wheel
slowly from lock to lock.
(8) Stop the engine. Check the fluid level and refill
as required.
(9) If the fluid is extremely foamy, allow the vehi-
cle to stand a few minutes and repeat the above pro-
cedure.

happens when the container delivery mechanism is im-
properly calibrated. Always check the lubricant level af-
ter filling to avoid an under fill condition.
A correct lubricant level check can only be made
when the vehicle is level; use a drive-on hoist to en-
sure this. Also allow the lubricant to settle for a
minute or so before checking. These recommenda-
tions will ensure an accurate check and avoid an un-
der-or-overfill condition.
HARD SHIFTING
Hard shifting is usually caused by a low lubricant
level, improper or contaminated lubricants, compo-
nent damage, incorrect clutch adjustment, or by a
damaged clutch pressure plate or disc.
Substantial lubricant leaks can result in gear, shift
rail, synchro and bearing damage. If a leak goes un-
detected for an extended period, the first indications
of a problem are usually hard shifting and noise.
Incorrect or contaminated lubricants can also con-
tribute to hard shifting. The consequence of using
non-recommended lubricants is noise, excessive wear,
internal bind and hard shifting.
Improper clutch release is a frequent cause of hard
shifting. Incorrect adjustment or a worn, damaged
pressure plate or disc can cause incorrect release. If
the clutch problem is advanced, gear clash during
shifts can result.
Worn or damaged synchro rings can cause gear clash
when shifting into any forward gear. In some new or re-
built transmissions, new synchro rings may tend to
stick slightly causing hard or noisy shifts. In most
cases, this condition will decline as the rings wear-in.
TRANSMISSION NOISE
Most manual transmissions make some noise dur-
ing normal operation. Rotating gears generate a mild
whine that is audible but only at extreme speeds.
Severe, highly audible transmission noise is gener-
ally the result of a lubricant problem. Insufficient,
improper, or contaminated lubricant will promote
rapid wear of gears, synchros, shift rails, forks and
bearings. The overheating caused by a lubricant
problem, can also lead to gear breakage.
TRANSMISSION REMOVAL
(1) Shift transmission into first or third gear. Then
raise vehicle on hoist.
(2) Support engine with adjustable jack stand. Po-
sition wood block between jack and oil pan to avoid
damaging pan.
(3) Disconnect necessary exhaust system components.
(4) Remove skid plate.

TRANSMISSION APPLICATION
Chrysler 30RH and 32RH automatic transmissions
are used in XJ/YJ models. Both are 3-speed auto-
matic transmissions with a gear-type oil pump, two
clutches and bands and a planetary gear system (Fig.
1).
The 30RH is used in XJ/YJ models with a 2.5L en-
gine. The 32RH is used in YJ models with a 4.0L en-
gine.
TORQUE CONVERTER
A three element, torque converter is used for all
applications. The converter consists of an impeller,
stator, and turbine.
The converter used with 30RH/32RH transmissions
has a converter clutch. The clutch is engaged by an
electrical solenoid and mechanical module on the
valve body. The solenoid is operated by the power-
train control module.
The torque converter is a welded assembly and is
not a repairable component. The converter is serviced
as an assembly.
RECOMMENDED FLUID
The recommended and preferred fluid for 30RH/
32RH transmissions is Mopar ATF Plus, Type 7176.
Dexron II is not really recommended and should
only be used when ATF Plus is not available.
TRANSMISSION IDENTIFICATION
The transmission identification numbers are
stamped on the left side of the case just above the oil
pan gasket surface (Fig. 2). The first set of numbers
is the transmission part number. The next set of code
numbers set is the date of build. The final set of code
numbers represents the transmission serial number.
TRANSMISSION CHANGES AND PARTS
INTERCHANGEABILITY
1995 transmissions are similar to previous models
but only in appearance. Current transmissions are
dimensionally different. Do not interchange new/oldparts. Different dimensions, fluid passages, input/
output shafts, cases, bands, valve bodies and gover-
nor assemblies are just a few of the changed items.
CAUTION: Special bolts are used to attach the
driveplate to the crankshaft on models with a 2.5L
engine and 30RH transmission,. These bolts have a
smaller hex head for torque converter clearance.
DO NOT interchange these bolts with similar size
bolts for any reason.
Different governor weight assemblies are used in
30RH/32RH transmissions. The 30RH weight assem-
bly is much the same as in previous years. However,
the 32RH has a three stage governor weight assem-
bly consisting of the outer weight, a smaller weight
spring, and a new intermediate weight. Refer to the
overhaul and in-vehicle service sections for more de-
tailed information.
Plastic check balls are now used in many 30RH/
32RH valve bodies. The new check balls entered pro-
duction as a running change. Plastic and steel check
balls are not interchangeable.
A converter drainback check valve has been added
to the fluid cooler system. The one-way valve is lo-
cated in the transmission outlet (pressure) line. The
valve prevents fluid drainback when the vehicle is
parked for lengthy periods.
TRANSMISSION CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS
The transmission hydraulic control system per-
forms five basic functions, which are:
²pressure supply
²pressure regulation
²flow control
²clutch/band apply and release
²lubrication
Pressure Supply And Regulation
The oil pump generates the fluid working pressure
needed for operation and lubrication. The pump is

GENERAL INFORMATION
Automatic transmission problems are generally a
result of:
²poor engine performance
²incorrect fluid level
²incorrect throttle valve cable adjustment
²incorrect band adjustment
²incorrect hydraulic control pressure adjustments
²hydraulic component malfunctions
²mechanical component malfunctions.
Begin diagnosis by checking the easily accessible
items such as fluid level, fluid condition and control
linkage adjustment. A road test will determine if fur-
ther diagnosis is necessary.
Procedures outlined in this section should be per-
formed in the following sequence to realize the most
accurate results:
²Preliminary diagnosis
²Check fluid level and condition
²Check control linkage Adjustment
²Road test
²Stall test
²Hydraulic pressure test
²Air pressure tests
²Leak test
²Analyze test results and consult diagnosis charts
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
Two basic procedures are required. One procedure
for vehicles that are driveable and an alternate pro-
cedure for disabled vehicles (will not back up or move
forward).
Vehicle Is Driveable
(1) Check fluid level and condition.
(2) Adjust throttle cable and gearshift linkage if
complaint was based on delayed, erratic, or harsh
shifts.
(3) Road test vehicle and note transmission operat-
ing characteristics.(4) Perform stall test if complaint is based on slug-
gish, low speed acceleration or abnormal throttle
opening needed to maintain normal speeds with
properly tuned engine.
(5) Perform hydraulic pressure tests.
(6) Perform air pressure test to check clutch-band
operation.
Vehicle Is Disabled
(1) Check fluid level and condition.
(2) Check for broken, disconnected throttle linkage.
(3) Check for cracked, leaking cooler lines, or loose,
missing pressure port plugs.
(4) Raise vehicle, start engine, shift transmission
into gear and note following:
(a) If propeller shafts turn but wheels do not,
problem is with differential or axle shafts.
(b) If propeller shafts do not turn and transmis-
sion is noisy, stop engine. Remove oil pan, and
check for debris. If pan is clear, remove transmis-
sion and check for damaged drive plate, converter,
oil pump or input shaft.
(c) If propeller shafts do not turn and transmis-
sion is not noisy, perform hydraulic pressure test to
determine if problem is a hydraulic or mechanical.
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Transmission fluid level should be checked monthly
under normal operation. If the vehicle is used for
trailer towing or similar heavy load hauling, check
fluid level and condition weekly.
Fluid level is checked with the engine running at
curb idle speed, the transmission in Neutral and the
transmission fluid at normal operating temperature.
FLUID LEVEL CHECK PROCEDURE
(1) Transmission fluid must be at normal operating
temperature for accurate fluid level check. Drive ve-
hicle if necessary to bring fluid temperature up to
normal hot operating temperature of 82ÉC (180ÉF).
(2) Position vehicle on level surface. This is ex-
tremely important for accurate fluid level check.
(3) Start and run engine at curb idle speed.
21 - 70 30RH/32RH TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSISJ

(4) Apply parking brakes.
(5) Shift transmission momentarily into all gear
ranges. Then shift transmission back to Neutral.
(6) Clean top of filler tube and dipstick to keep dirt
from entering tube.
(7) Remove dipstick and check fluid level as fol-
lows:
(a) Dipstick has three fluid level indicator levels
(Fig. 1) which are: a MIN dot, an OK crosshatch
area, and a MAX fill arrow.
(b) Correct maximum level is to MAX arrow
mark. Correct acceptable level is to OK mark in
crosshatch area.
(c) Incorrect level is at or below MIN dot.
(d) If fluid is low, add only enough Mopar ATF
Plus to restore correct level. Do not overfill.
CAUTION: Do not overfill the transmission. Overfill-
ing may cause leakage out the pump vent which
can be mistaken for a pump seal leak. Overfilling
will also cause fluid aeration and foaming as the ex-
cess fluid is picked up and churned by the gear
train. This will significantly reduce fluid life.
EFFECTS OF INCORRECT FLUID LEVEL
A low fluid level allows the pump to take in air
along with the fluid. Air in the fluid will cause fluid
pressures to be low and develop slower than normal.
If the transmission is overfilled, the gears churn
the fluid into foam. This aerates the fluid causing the
same conditions that occur with a low level.
In either case, air bubbles cause fluid overheating,
oxidation and varnish buildup which interferes with
valve, clutch and servo operation. Foaming also
causes fluid expansion which can result in fluid over-
flow from the transmission vent or fill tube. Fluid
overflow can easily be mistaken for a leak if inspec-
tion is not careful.
TRANSMISSION THROTTLE VALVE CABLE
ADJUSTMENT
Throttle cable adjustment is important to proper
operation. This adjustment positions the throttle
valve which controls shift speed, quality and part
throttle downshift sensitivity.
If cable adjustment setting is too short, early shifts
and slippage between shifts may occur. If the setting
is too long, shifts may be delayed and part throttle
downshifts may be very sensitive. Refer to the In-Ve-
hicle Service section for adjustment procedure.
GEARSHIFT CABLE/LINKAGE ADJUSTMENT
Gearshift cable/linkage adjustment is important be-
cause it positions the valve body manual valve. Incor-
rect adjustment will cause creeping in Neutral,
premature clutch wear, delayed engagement in any
gear, or a no-start in Park or Neutral position.Proper operation of the neutral start switch will
provide a quick check on adjustment. Refer to the In-
Vehicle Service section for adjustment procedure.
ROAD TEST
Before road testing, be sure the fluid level and all
cable/linkage adjustments have been checked and ad-
justed if necessary.
Observe engine performance during the road test. A
poorly tuned engine will not allow an accurate anal-
ysis of transmission operation.
Operate the transmission in all gear ranges. Check
for slippage and shift variations. Note whether the
shifts are harsh, spongy, delayed, early, or if part
throttle downshifts are sensitive.
Watch closely for slippage or engine flare which
usually indicates clutch, band or overrunning clutch
problems. If the condition is advanced, an overhaul
may be necessary to restore normal operation.
A slipping clutch or band can often be determined
by comparing which internal units are applied in the
various gear ranges. The Clutch and Band Applica-
tion chart (Fig. 3) provides a basis for analyzing road
test results.
ANALYZING THE ROAD TEST
Refer to the Clutch and Band Application chart
(Fig. 3) and note which elements are in use in the
various gear ranges.
The rear clutch is applied in all forward ranges (D,
2, 1). The overrunning clutch is applied in first gear
(D and 2 range only). The rear band is applied in 1
and R range only.
For example: If slippage occurs in first gear in D
and 2 range but not in 1 range, the overrunning
Fig. 3 Clutch And Band Application Chart
J30RH/32RH TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS 21 - 71

clutch is slipping. Similarly, if slippage occurs in any
two forward gears, the rear clutch is slipping.
Applying the same method of analysis, note that
both clutches are applied in D range third gear only.
If the transmission slips in third gear, either the
front clutch or the rear clutch is slipping. By select-
ing another gear which does not use one of these
units, the slipping clutch can be determined.
Although road test analysis will help determine the
slipping unit, the actual cause of a malfunction may
not be determined until hydraulic and air pressure
tests are performed. Practically any condition can be
caused by leaking hydraulic circuits or sticking
valves. Unless the problem is an obvious one, do not
remove and disassemble the transmission until hy-
draulic and air pressure tests have been performed.
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST
Hydraulic test pressures range from a low of one
psi (6.895 kPa) governor pressure, to 300 psi (2068.5
kPa) at the rear servo pressure port in reverse.
Use 100 psi Pressure Gauge C-3292 to check pres-
sure at the accumulator, front servo, governor and
fluid cooler line. Use 300 psi Gauge C-3293 to check
pressure at the rear servo. The 300 psi gauge can be
used at any other port when more than one gauge is
required for testing.
PRESSURE TEST PORT LOCATIONS
There are pressure test ports at the accumulator,
front servo, rear servo and governor.
Line pressure is checked at the accumulator port
on the right side of the case (Fig. 4). The front servo
release pressure port is at the right side of the case
just behind the filler tube opening (Fig. 4).
The rear servo pressure port is at the right rear of
the transmission case (Fig. 5).
On4x2models, the governor pressure port is at
the left side of case at the transmission rear (Fig. 5).
On4x4transmissions, the test port is in the driver
side of the adapter housing (Fig. 6).
PRESSURE TEST PROCEDURE
Connect a tachometer to the engine. Position the
tachometer so it can be observed from under the ve-
hicle. Raise the vehicle on a hoist that will allow the
wheels to rotate freely.
Test One-Transmission In 1 Range
This test checks pump output, pressure regu-
lation, and condition of the rear clutch and
rear servo circuits. Use both test gauges for
this test
(1) Connect Test Gauge C-3292 to line pressure
port and Test Gauge C-3293 to rear servo port (Figs.
4-6).
(2) Disconnect throttle and gearshift rods at trans-
mission.
(3) Start and run engine at 1000 rpm.
(4) Move valve body selector lever forward into 1
range.
(5) Read pressures on both gauges as transmission
throttle lever is moved from full forward to full rear-
ward position.
(a) Line pressure should be 54-60 psi (372-414
kPa) with throttle lever forward and gradually in-
crease to 90-96 psi (620-662 kPa) as lever is moved
rearward.
(b) Rear servo pressure should be same as line
pressure within 3 psi.

Test Two-Transmission In 2 Range
This test checks pump output and pressure
regulation. Use 100 psi Test Gauge C-3292 for
this test.
(1) Connect test gauge to line pressure port (Fig.
4).
(2) Start and run engine at 1000 rpm.
(3) Move valve body selector lever one detent rear-
ward from full forward position (this is 2 range).
(4) Move transmission throttle lever from full for-
ward to full rearward position and read pressure at
both gauges.
(5) Line pressure should be 54-60 psi (372-414
kPa) with throttle lever forward and gradually in-
crease to 90-96 psi (620-662 kPa) as lever is moved
rearward.
Test Three-Transmission In Third Gear
This test checks pressure regulation and con-
dition of the front and rear clutch circuits.
Both gauges are required for this test.
(1) Connect one test gauge to line pressure port
and other gauge to front servo pressure port (Fig. 4).
Either gauge can be used at either port.
(2) Start and run engine at 1600 rpm.
(3) Move selector lever two detents rearward from
full forward position. This is D range.
(4) Read pressures on both gauges as transmission
throttle lever is moved from full forward to full rear-
ward position.
(a) Line pressure in third gear, should be 54-60
psi (372-414 kPa) with throttle lever forward and
gradually increase as lever is moved rearward.
(b) Front servo pressure in third gear, should be
within 3 psi (21 kPa) of line pressure, up to down-
shift point.
Test Four-Transmission In Reverse
This test checks pump output, pressure regu-
lation and the front clutch and rear servo cir-
cuits. Use 300 psi Pressure Test Gauge C-3293
for this test.
(1) Connect pressure test gauge to rear servo port
(Fig. 5).
(2) Start and run engine at 1600 rpm for test.
(3) Move valve body selector lever four detents
rearward from full forward position. This is Reverse
range.
(4) Move throttle lever all way forward then all the
way rearward and note gauge readings.
(5) Pressure should be 145 - 175 psi (1000-1207
kPa) with lever forward and increase to 230 - 280 psi
(1586-1931 kPa) as lever is moved rearward.
Test Five-Governor Pressure
This test checks governor operation by mea-
suring governor pressure response to changesin engine speed. It is usually not necessary to
check governor operation unless shift speeds
are incorrect or if the transmission will not
shift up or down. Use 100 psi Pressure Test
Gauge C-3292 for this test.
(1) Connect test gauge to governor pressure port
(Figs. 5 and 6).
(2) Move selector lever to D range.
(3) Apply service brakes. Start and run engine at
curb idle speed and note pressure. At idle and with
wheels stopped, pressure should be zero to 1-1/2 psi
maximum. If pressure exceeds this figure, governor
valve or weights are sticking open.
(4) Slowly increase engine speed and observe
speedometer and pressure test gauge. Governor pres-
sure should increase in proportion to vehicle speed
(approximately 1 psi for every 1 mph shown on
speedometer).
(5) Governor pressure rise should be smooth and
drop back to 0 to 1-1/2 psi when throttle is closed
and wheels are stopped.
(6) Compare results of pressure tests with analysis
chart (Fig. 7).
