TROUBLESHOOTING (G4A-HL)
GENERAL NOTE
In the event of a problem with the automatic transaxle, the cause may be in the engine, power train,
hydraulic control system, or electrical control system.
When troubleshooting, therefore, it is recommended to begin from those points that can be judged
quickly and easily. The recommended troubleshooting sequence is described below.
STEP 4: TIME LAG TEST
Check time lag of oil pressure supply
STEP 6: OIL PRESSURE TEST Check line, throttle, and governor pressures
This step checks conditions surrounding the automatic
transaxle.
This step checks the electrical control system.
• Function of the electrical control system
• Components
This step checks the power train. • Friction element slipping • Torque converter capacity
This step checks operation of the hydraulic control system. • Accumulators • Friction elements slipping • Regulating valves
This step checks functions of the electric control system and
hydraulic control system.
This step checks major points of the hydraulic control system.
• Oil pump • Line pressure control • Throttle pressure control
• Governer pressure control
STEP 5: ROAD TEST Check items on road test
• Shift point • Shift schedule
• Kick-down • Shift shock • Lock-up and overdrive inhibition
By following the above 6 steps, the cause of the problem should be located.
As another guide to faster location of the causes of problems, the Quick Diagnosis Chart is included
at pages 7B—42, 43.
In this chart, a circle is used to indicate the components that might be the cause of trouble for 20
types of problems. It is only necessary to check those components indicated by circles, at each step
of the troubleshooting process, in order to quickly locate the cause of the problem.

marks. Add ATF to specification, if necessary.
Low temperature scale:
20°C (68°F)
High temperature scale:
65°C (149°F)
ATF type:
Dexron II or M HI
Inspection of Condition
1. Check the ATF for discoloration.
2. Check the ATF for any unusual smell.
Note
Determine whether or not the automatic trans-
mission should be disassembled by observ-
ing the condition of fluid carefully.
If the fluid is muddy and varnished, it indicates
burned drive plates.
SELECTOR LEVER
Inspection
1. Check that the selector lever can only be shifted
as shown in the figure.
2. Make sure there is a click at each range when shift-
ed from P <-> L or P <-» 1 range.
3. Check that the position of the selector lever and
the indicator are exact.
4. Check that the button returns smoothly when used
to shift the selector.
Adjustment
1. Loosen locknuts A, B, and lockbolt C.
2. Shift the selector lever to P range.
3. Shift the transaxle to P range by moving the man-
ual shaft of the transaxle.
4. While holding the selector lever forward in P range,
tighten lockbolt C to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
8—11 N-m (80—110 cm-kg, 67—95 in-lb)
