3 Quickly note the line pressure and immediately
release throttle

5 Cool off A.T F.
6 Perform line pressure testing in the same man-
ner as in steps 2 through 6 with select lever
in
"2". "1" and "R", respectively.
Do not perform tests for more than five
seconds
at any shift range.
Do not proceed to next "range" test imrnedi-
ately after one "range"
test is done. Wait until

Judgment by measuring line pressure
If line pressure does not rise, first check to make
sure that vacuum
hose is connected properly.
1) When line pressure is low at all positions, the
problem may be due to
Wear on interior of oil pump
Oil leakage at or around oil pump, control
valve body, transmission case or governor
Sticking pressure regulator valve
Sticking pressure modifier valve
2) When line pressure is low at a particular posi-
tion, the problem may be due to the following
If oil leaks at or around forward clutch (rear)
or governor, line pressure
is low in "D", "2" or
"1" range but is normal in "R" range.
If oil leaks at or around low and reverse brake
circuit, line pressure becomes low in
"R" or
"P" range but IS normal in "D", "2" or "1"
range.
3) When line pressure is high, pressure regulator
valve may have stuck
Cutdown point
The cut-down point indicates
a point where line
pressure changes from high to low value.
Before proceeding cut-down testing, make sure
that line pressure "At Idle" and "At
Stall'' is
normal

Sticking governor valve
Oil leaks at oil passage
(2) When cut-down point is too low or too high,
the problem may be due to
Incorrect springs (at pressure modifier valve
or governor valve)

TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND DIAGNOSES
Stall
The stall test is an effective method of testing
clutch and band holding ability, torque converter
one-way clutch operation, and engine performance
A
stall test should only be performed as a last
resort because of the high fluid temperature it
generates and the excessive load it places on the
engine and transmission.
CAUTION:
a. Transmission and engine fluid levels should
b
c.
d
always be checked and fluid added as needed.
Run engine to
attain proper warm-up.
During test, never
hold throttle wide-open for
more than
5 seconds
Do not test more than two gear ranges without
driving vehicle to
cool off engine and trans-
mission
STALL TEST PROCEDURE
1 Set parking brake and block wheels
SAT597
2 Install a tachometer where it can be seen by
driver during
test
3 Start engine and place select lever in "D"
range
4 Apply foot brake and accelerate to wide-open
throttle
5 Quickly note the engine stall speed and imme-
diately release throttle
