FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET
The transmission has several areas where the form-in-place gasket (FIPG) is in use. To ensure that
the gasket fully serves its purpose, it is necessary to observe some precautions when applying the gasket.
Bead size, continuity and location are of paramount importance. Too thin a bead could cause leaks.
Too thick a bead, on the other hand, could be squeezed out of location, causing blocking or narrowing
of the fluid feed line. To eliminate the possibility of leaks from a joint, therefore, it is absolutely necessary
to apply the gasket evenly without a break, while observing the correct bead size.
DISASSEMBLY
The parts assembled with the FIPG can be easily disassembled without use of a special method. In
some cases, however, the sealant between the joined surfaces may have to be broken by lightly striking
with a mallet or similar tool. A flat and thin gasket scraper may be lightly hammered in between the
joined surfaces. In this case, however, care must be taken to prevent damage to the joined surfaces.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Thoroughly remove all substances deposited on the gasket application surfaces, using a gasket scraper
or wire brush. Check to ensure that the surfaces to which the FIPG is to be applied is flat. Make sure
that there are no oils, greases and foreign substances deposited on the application surfaces. Do not
forget to remove the old sealant remaining in the bolt holes.
FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET APPLICATION
Applied FIPG bead should be of the specified size and without breaks. Also be sure to encircle the
bolt hole circumference with a completely continuous bead. The FIPG can be wiped away unless it is
hardened. While the FIPG is still moist (in less than 10 minutes), mount the parts in position. When
the parts are mounted, make sure that the gasket is applied to the required area only. In addition, do
not apply any oil or water to the sealing locations or start the engine until a sufficient amount of time
(about one hour) has passed after installation is completed.
The FIPG application procedure may vary on different areas. Observe the procedure described in the
text when applying the FIPG.

Inspection Procedure 2
Tachometer does not work.
Probable cause
The ignition signal may not be input from the engine, or there may be a malfunction
in the power supply or earth circuit.

Malfunction of harness or connector
Disconnect the combination meter con-
nector B-08 and measure at the harness
sides.

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL – Radio and Tape Player54-45
RADIO AND TAPE PLAYER
TROUBLESHOOTING
There is noise when the engine is running.
Kind of Noise (Parenthe-
sized is how noise
sounds.)SymptomCauseRemedy
AM, FM: Ignition noise
(Popping, snapping,
crackling, buzzing)
Popping sound becomes
faster with the increase
of engine speed.

The noise is lost with
ignition switch turned to
ACC.
Mainly due to the
spark plugs.

Due to noise circula-
tion from elsewhere

Noise from the engineCheck the noise capacitor
and earth cable and
replace if necessary. (See
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(1) (Murmuring)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON and
OFF.Noise produced by spark-
ing when the defogger
switch is turned to ON/
OFF enters the glass
antenna.Check the noise capacitor
and replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 1.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(2) (Snapping noise)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON.Noise produced by current
flowing in the defogger
enters the glass antenna.Check the choke coil and
replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 3.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(3) (Scratching, gaggling)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON with
print heater wire broken.Noise produced by spark-
ing where print heater is
broken enters the glass
antenna.Repair the print heater.
AM, FM: Wiper motor
noise (Humming, wheez-
ing)Sound becomes faster with
the increase of wiper speed
and is lost when the wiper is
stopped.Caused by sparking in
wiper motor brush.Replace the wiper motor.
FM: Mirror motor noise
(Humming, wheezing)Occurs when electric mirror
operates.Caused by sparking in
mirror motor brush.Replace the electric
motor.
Other electrical compo-
nents–Noise is emitted by some
electrical components in
long use.Repair or replace electri-
cal components.
Static electricity (Crack-
ling, crinkling)
Noise is stopped when
the vehicle comes to a
complete stop.

Noise becomes louder
when the clutch is
released.Occurs when parts or
wiring move for some
reason and contact metal
parts of the body.Put parts or wiring into
position.
Various noises are produced
by body parts.Due to electrical detach-
ment of the hood, exhaust
pipe and muffler, suspen-
sion, etc. from the body.Tighten mounting bolts
securely. In many cases,
remedy of one part does
not eliminate the problem
due to incomplete earthing
elsewhere.
Caution
(1) Never let the noise filter contact a high tension cable. The noise filter could break down.
(2) Check that there is no external noise. This check is necessary to prevent misidentification of noise
sources.
(3) Noise prevention should be performed by eliminating noise sources in the descending order of loudness.
