DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove torque converter, drain A.T.F
through end of
rear extension, and place trans-
mission on
Tool.
v
SAT520
2 Remove lock-up solenoid (E4N71B).
3. Remove converter housing.
SATOW
4. Remove oil pan and inspect its contents. An
analysis of any foreign matter can indicate the
types of problems to look for. If the fluid
IS
very dark, smells burned, or contains foreign
particles, the frictional material (clutches,
band.) may need replacement. A tacky film
that will not wipe clean indicates varnish bulld
up which can cause valves, servo, and clutches
to stick and may inhibit pump pressure.

5. Loosen 2nd band servo piston stem lock nut
and tighten piston stem.
If it turns more than
two turns, the band
is worn out.

1 Start engine and place select lever in "D"
range
2 Apply foot brake and accelerate to wide-open
throttle
3 Quickly note the line pressure and immediately
release throttle
4 Shift select lever to "N".
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
oil temperature decreases

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

(2) When cut-down point is too low or too high,
the problem may be due to
