Caution
When shifting the select lever to D range, the brakes should be applied so that the vehicle does
not move forward.
NOTE
*1. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the air flow sensor output frequency is sometimes
10% higher than the standard frequency.
*
2. The idle position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the throttle position sensor is 50 ±
100 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the idle position switch turns back on after
the throttle position sensor voltage has been by 100 mV and the throttle valve has been opened,
the idle position switch and the throttle position sensor need to be adjusted.
*3. The injector drive time represents the time when the cranking speed is at 250 r/min or below when
the power supply voltage is 11 V.
*4. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the injector drive time is sometimes 10%
longer than the standard time.
*5. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the step of the stepper motor is sometimes
30 steps greater than the standard value.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ± Troubleshooting23-4
TROUBLESHOOTING23100760152
STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSIS TROUBLESHOOTING
Automatic transmission malfunctions may be caused by the following conditions.
(1) Improper maintenance and adjustment
(2) Shift control system malfunction
(3) Mechanical malfunctions
(4) Hydraulic malfunctions
(5) Poor engine performance
Troubleshooting in the event of any such malfunctions should begin by checking fluid level, ATF condition,
manual linkage adjustment, throttle control cable adjustment and other conditions whose deviation from
standards can be readily known. Then, road test shall be performed to determine whether or not the
problem has been corrected or more diagnosis is necessary. If the problem still persists after these tests
and corrections, hydraulic tests should be performed for further troubleshooting.
Road test (guess what causes malfunc-
tion.)
Check how A/T works in each drive
range to find a defective system.
A/T control component inspection
Check the throttle cable, inhibitor switch,
overdrive switch, overdrive solenoid
valve, overdrive control relay, defective
switch, engine coolant temperature
switch and vehicle speed sensor.
Torque converter stall test (Inspection
of engine performance and mechanical
function)
Check the engine performance, torque
converter operation and clutch and
brake sliding performance.
Hydraulic pressure test (Inspection of
hydraulic control mechanism)
Measure the fluid line pressure and
check for malfunctions of the oil pump
or regulator valve and for oil leaks.
Oil leak inspection
Visually check gaskets and oil seals for
leaks.
Adjustment of basic inspection items
ROAD TEST 23100780158
Prior to performing road test, be sure to make basic checks including check and adjustment of fluid
level and condition and adjustment of the throttle cable. For road test, the transfer must be placed in
the 2H (2WD-high) position. In road test, various changes such as slips in transmission and shifting
conditions are checked and the transmission operation at each shift position must have been checked.

STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING
Refer to GROUP 00 – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points
NOTES WITH REGARD TO DIAGNOSIS
The Phenomena listed in the following table are not abnormal.
Phenomenon Explanation of phenomenon
System check sound When starting the engine, a thudding sound can sometimes be hear
coming from inside the engine compartment, but this is because the
system operation check is being performed, and is not an abnormality.
ABS operation sound 1.
Sound of the motor inside the ABS hydraulic unit operation (whine).
2.
Sound is generated along with vibration of the brake pedal (scraping)
3.
When ABS operates, sound is generated from the vehicle chassis
due to repeated brake application and release.
(Thump: suspension: squeak: tyres)
ABS operation (Long braking
distance)For road surfaces suck as snow-covered roads a gravel roads, the
braking distance for vehicles with ABS can sometimes be longer than
that for other vehicles. Accordingly, advise the customer to drive safely
on suck roads by lowering the vehicle speed and not being to
overconfident.
Diagnosis detection condition can vary depending on the diagnosis code.
Make sure that checking requirements listed in the “Comment” are satisfied when checking the trouble
symptom again.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION35201120351
DIAGNOSIS CODES CHECK
Read a diagnosis code by the MUT-II or ABS warning
lamp. (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Trouble-
shooting/Inspection Service Points.)
ERASING DIAGNOSIS CODES
With the MUT-II
Refer to GROUP 00 – How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

When diagnostic trouble codes (Nos. 21 to 24) (for vehicle wheel speed sensor system failures) occur,
normal MUT-II operation may not erase those codes. In that case, erase the diagnostic trouble codes
using the following procedures.
1.
Perform erasing of the diagnostic trouble codes by special operation of the brake pedal. (See erasing
procedure for the diagnostic trouble codes without use of the MUT-II.)
2.
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3.
Perform erasing of the diagnostic trouble codes by use of the MUT-II.
