CONVERTER STALL TESTStall test consist of determining maximum engine
speed obtained at full throttle in “D” and “R”
positions. This test checks torque converter stator
overrunning clutch operation, and holding ability of
transaxle clutches and low-reserve brake.
CautionDuring this test, make sure that no one stand in
front of or behind vehicle.
1. Check transaxle fluid level. Fluid should be at
normal operating temperature
[70-80°C (160-
18O”F)]. Engine coolant should also be at normaloperating temperature
[80-90°C (180- 19O”F)l.2. Apply chocks to both rear wheels.
3. Attach engine tachometer.
4. Apply parking and service brakes fully.
5. Start engine.
6. With selector lever in “D” position, depress
accelerator pedal fully to read engine maximum
rpm. Do not hold throttle wide open any longer
than is necessary to obtain maximum engine
rpm reading, and never longer than 5 seconds ata time. If more than one stall test is required,
operate engine at approximatey 1,000 rpm in
neutral for 2 minutes to cool transaxle fluid
between tests.
Stall speed:
1,800-3,200 rpm
TRANSAXLE CONTROL7. Place selector lever to “R” position and perform
?+stall test by the same procedure as in foregoing
-,
item.Stall Speed Above Specification in “D”
If stall speed is higher than specification, rear clutchor overrunning clutch of transaxle is slipping. In this
case, perform hydraulic test to locate cause of
slippage.Stall Speed Above Specifjcation in “R”
If stall speed is higher than specification, front
clutch of transaxle or low-reverse brake is slipping.
In this case, perform hydraulic test to locate cause
of slippage.
Stall Speed Below Specification in “D” and “R”
If stall speed is lower than specification, insufficient
engine output or faulty torque converter is sus-
pected. Check for engine misfiring, ignition timing,
valve clearance etc. If these are good, torque
converter is faulty.

SELECTOR LEVER OPERATlON CHECKNZlFlAE1. Shift selector lever to each range and check that lever
+moves smoothly and is controled. Check that position
indicator is correct.
-L*
2.Check to be sure the selector lever can be shifted to each
position (by button operation as shown in the illustration).
3. Start the engine and check if the vehicle moves forward
when the selector lever is shifted from
N to D, and moves
backward when shifted to
R.4. When the shift lever malfunctions, adjust control cable
and selector lever sleeve. Check for worn shift lever
assembly sliding parts.
NOTETo move the selector lever from the “P” position to any
other position, first turn the ignition key to any position
other than “LOCK (OFF)” and depress the brake pedal.
KEY INTERLOCK MECHANISM CHECKNZlFUAA1. Completely stop the vehicle and switch OFF the engine
before making the check.
2. Check to be sure that, under the following conditions, the
select lever cannot be moved from the “P” position to any
?cother position.
~.‘,Also check, at the same time, that the button cannot be
pressed.Ignition key position:
“LOCK (OFF)“, or removed
Brake pedal: Depressed
3.Check to be sure that, under the following conditions, the
select lever can be moved from the “P” position to any
other position.
Press the button a few times and check to be sure that the
select lever moves smoothly.
Ignition key position: “ACC”
Brake pedal : Depressed
Button
: Pressed4. Check to be sure that, at all positions of the select lever
(other than
“P”), the ignition key cannot be turned to the
“LOCK (OFF)” position.
Check to be sure that the ignition key smoothly turns to the“LOCK (OFF)” position when the select lever is then set to
the “P” position and the button is released.
5. If a malfunction is discovered when following the above
,”checking procedures, either adjust or check the key
interlock cable mechanism. (Refer to
P.21-220.)

INHIBITOR SWITCH ADJUSTMENTNZlFKAJ
INHIBITOR SWITCH1. Place selector lever in “N” (Neutral) position.
2. Place manual control lever in “N” (Neutral) position.
3.To adjust, rotate the switch body so that the manual controllever 5 mm
(2 in.) hole and the switch body 5 mm (.2 in.)
hole are aligned.
4.Tighten the mounting bolts of the inhibitor switch body to
the specified torque. At this time, take care to prevent
dropping the switch body.
Specified torque:
lo-12 Nm (7-9 ftlbs.)
5.Loosen the nut shown in the figure, and lightly pull the end
of the transaxle control cable in the “F” direction by hand.
6. Tighten the nut to the specified torque.
Specified torque:
IO-14 Nm (7-10 ftlbs.)7. Check that the selector lever is in “N” position.
8. Check that it securely operates and functions on the
transaxle side in the range which corresponds to each
position of the selector lever.

OPERATIONl With the ignition switch in the “ON” position,
rs;,press either the “UP” or “DOWN” side of the
power window (main or sub) switch. Electric
-*
current will then flow through sub fusible link No.5 to the power window motor and will operate
the power window motor to open or close the
power window glass.
lPress the DOWN side of the power window mainswitch located on the driver’s seat side all the
way. Then the switch will lock and the power
window motor will continue to operate until the
window glass is fully open.
NOTEFor detailed information on the operation of the
one-touch down (open) mechanism, refer to the
Technical Information Manual.l To disable both the main and sub switches
except the one located at the driver’s seat, placethe power window lock switch in the “LOCK
(ON)” position. With the switch in this position,
the power window motor will no longer operate
even if the switches are operated.
lThe power window motor has a circuit breaker to
prevent damage to the motor due to overcurrent.
Reference: Characteristics of Circuit BreakerAt normal temperatures
[ZO-25OC (68-77”F)I,bind the motor. Supply current, then the circuit
h
breaker will cut off the current in the first 4 to 40\&’seconds. The circuit breaker, if left alone, will
reset in less than 60 seconds.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS1. None of the door glasses can be opened or
closed.0 Check sub fusible link No. 5.0 Check the power window relays.
l Check the power window main switches.
2.Some, but not all, of the door glasses cannot be
opened or closed.
(I) Do not operate even if both the power
window main and sub switches are pressed.0 Check power window main switch.
l Check the power window motor which
does not operate.
(2) Do not operate only when either the main or
sub switch is pressed, but do operate when
both are pressed.0 Check power window switch which does
not operate.3. The one-touch switch function only does not
work.A0 Replace the power window main switch.
