WATER PUMP


Check for rough operation due to excessive end play.

Replace water pump, if necessary.
INSTALLATION
1. Install new O-rings to water pump.

Apply engine oil and engine coolant to O-rings as shown in
the figure.

Locate O-ring with white paint mark to engine front side.
2. Install water pump.
CAUTION:
Do not allow timing chain case to nip O-rings when install-
ing water pump.

Make sure that timing chain and water pump sprocket are
engaged.

Insert water pump by tightening mounting bolts alternately
and evenly.
3. Install the timing chain tensioner (primary) with the following procedure:
a. Pull plunger stopper tab up (or turn lever downward) so as to
remove plunger stopper tab from the ratchet of plunger.
NOTE:
Plunger stopper tab and lever are synchronized.
b. Push plunger into the inside of tensioner body.
c. Hold plunger in the fully compressed position by engaging
plunger stopper tab with the tip of ratchet.
d. To secure lever, insert stopper pin through hole of lever into ten-
sioner body hole.

The lever parts and the tab are synchronized. Therefore, the
plunger will be secured under this condition.
NOTE:
Figure shows the example of 1.2 mm (0.047 in) diameter thin screwdriver being used as the stopper pin.

Precautions BCS001FT
NOTE:
If any malfunction occurs in the RE0F09A model transaxle, replace the entire transaxle assembly.

Before connecting or disconnecting the TCM harness con-
nector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery
cable from the negative terminal. Because battery voltage is
applied to TCM even if ignition switch is turned OFF.

When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from TCM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
When connecting pin connectors make sure that there are
not any bends or breaks on TCM pin terminal.

Before replacing TCM, perform TCM input/output signal
inspection and make sure whether TCM functions properly
or not. Refer to CVT-40, "
TCM INSPECTION TABLE".

After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform “DTC Confirmation Procedure”.
If the repair is completed the DTC should not be displayed in the “DTC Confirmation Procedure”.

Always use the specified brand of CVT fluid. Refer to MA-14, "Fluids and Lubricants" .

Use lint-free paper, not cloth rags, during work.

After replacing the CVT fluid, dispose of the waste oil using the methods prescribed by law, ordinance,
etc.

Line Pressure and Secondary Pressure ControlBCS001G5

When an input torque signal equivalent to the engine drive force is sent from the ECM to the TCM, the
TCM controls the line pressure solenoid valve and secondary pressure solenoid valve.

This line pressure solenoid controls the pressure regulator valve as the signal pressure and adjusts the
pressure of the operating oil discharged from the oil pump to the line pressure most appropriate to the
driving state. Secondary pressure is controlled by decreasing line pressure.
NORMAL CONTROL
Optimize the line pressure and secondary pressure, depending on driving conditions, on the basis of the throt-
tle position, the engine speed, the primary pulley (input) revolution speed, the secondary pulley (output) revo-
lution speed, the brake signal, the PNP switch signal, the lock-up signal, the voltage, the target gear ratio, the
fluid temperature, and the fluid pressure.
FEEDBACK CONTROL
When controlling the normal fluid pressure or the selected fluid pressure, the secondary pressure can be set
more accurately by using the fluid pressure sensor to detect the secondary pressure and controlling the feed-
back.
Shift ControlBCS001G6
In order to select the gear ratio which can obtain the driving force in accordance with driver's intention and the
vehicle condition, TCM monitors the driving conditions, such as the vehicle speed and the throttle position and
selects the optimum gear ratio, and determines the gear change steps to the gear ratio. Then send the com-
mand to the step motor, and control the flow-in/flow-out of line pressure from the primary pulley to determine
the position of the moving-pulley and control the gear ratio.

CVT

Step Motor
If an unexpected signal is sent from the step motor to the TCM, the step motor coil phases “A” through “D” are
all turned OFF to hold the gear ratio used right before the non-standard condition occurred.
CVT Lock-up Select Solenoid
If an unexpected signal is sent from the solenoid to the TCM, the CVT lock-up select solenoid is turned OFF to
cancel the lock-up.
TCM Power Supply (Memory Back-up)
Transaxle assembly is protected by limiting the engine torque when the memory back-up power supply (for
controlling) from the battery is not supplied to TCM. Normal statues is restored when turning the ignition switch
OFF to ON after the normal power supply.
How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis for Quick and Accurate RepairBCS001GG
INTRODUCTION
The TCM receives a signal from the vehicle speed sensor, PNP
switch and provides shift control or lock-up control via CVT solenoid
valves.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the CVT system. The CVT system must be in good
operating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve mal-
function, etc.
It is much more difficult to diagnose an error that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent errors are caused
by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this case, careful
checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the replacement of
good parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the errors. A road test
with CONSULT-II or a circuit tester connected should be performed.
Follow the CVT-26, "
WORK FLOW" .
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such errors, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A “DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET” as
shown on the example (Refer to CVT-27
) should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for “conventional” errors first. This will
help troubleshoot driveability errors on an electronically controlled
engine vehicle.
Also check related Service bulletins.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Inspections Before Trouble DiagnosisBCS001GJ
CVT FLUID CHECK
Fluid Leakage and Fluid Level Check
Inspect for fluid leakage and check the fluid level. Refer to CVT-13, "Checking CVT Fluid" .
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the
CVT fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). Inspect the
amount of CVT fluid. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.

It is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.
6. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the
accelerator pedal.
7. Quickly read off the stall speed, and then quickly remove your
foot from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.
8. Move the selector lever to the “N” position.
9. Cool down the CVT fluid.
