AT-8
PRECAUTIONS
lVehicle has TCC shudder and/or no TCC apply. Replace only after all hydraulic and electrical diagnoses
have been made. (Converter clutch material may be glazed.)
lConverter is contaminated with engine coolant containing antifreeze.
lInternal failure of stator roller clutch.
lHeavy clutch debris due to overheating (blue converter).
lSteel particles or clutch lining material found in fluid filter or on magnet when no internal parts in unit are
worn or damaged — indicates that lining material came from converter.
The torque converter should not be replaced if:
lThe fluid has an odor, is discolored, and there is no evidence of metal or clutch facing particles.
lThe threads in one or more of the converter bolt holes are damaged.
lTransaxle failure did not display evidence of damaged or worn internal parts, steel particles or clutch plate
lining material in unit and inside the fluid filter.
lVehicle has been exposed to high mileage (only). The exception may be where the torque converter
clutch dampener plate lining has seen excess wear by vehicles operated in heavy and/or constant traffic,
such as taxi, delivery or police use.
EURO-OBD SELF-DIAGNOSIS — EURO-OBD —
lA/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. The results can be read through
the blinking pattern of the O/D OFF indicator lamp or the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Refer to the
table onAT-42, "
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULT TEST MODE"for the indicator used to display each self-
diagnostic result.
lThe self-diagnostic results indicated by the MIL are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM mem-
ories.
Always perform the procedure “HOW TO ERASE DTC” onAT-39, "
HOW TO ERASE DTC"to com-
plete the repair and avoid unnecessary blinking of the MIL.
lThe following self-diagnostic items can be detected using ECM self-diagnostic results mode* only when
the O/D OFF indicator lamp does not indicate any malfunctions.
–PNP switch
–A/T 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gear function
*: For details of EURO-OBD, refer toAT - 3 7 , "
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION".
lCertain systems and components, especially those related to EURO-OBD, may use a new style
slide-locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer toPG-70, "
HARNESS CONNECTOR".

If OK, continue with next check.
CHECKING AUTO MODE
1. Press A/C switch.
2. Display should indicate AUTO (no ECON).
lConfirm that the compressor clutch engages (audio or visual
inspection). (Discharge air and blower speed will depend on
ambient, in-vehicle, and set temperatures.)

Low-pressure Side Becomes Negative.
Insufficient HeatingEJS001H7
SYMPTOM: Insufficient heating
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Low-pressure side becomes nega-
tive.
Liquid tank or front/rear side of
expansion valve's pipe is
frosted or dewed.High-pressure side is closed
and refrigerant does not flow.
¯
Expansion valve or liquid tank
is frosted.Leave the system at rest until
no frost is present. Start it
again to check whether or not
the problem is caused by
water or foreign particles.
lIf water is the cause, initially
cooling is okay. Then the
water freezes causing a
blockage. Drain water from
refrigerant or replace refrig-
erant.
lIf due to foreign particles,
remove expansion valve
and remove the particles
with dry and compressed air
(not shop air).
lIf either of the above meth-
ods cannot correct the prob-
lem, replace expansion
valve.
lReplace desiccant assy.
lCheck lubricant for contami-
nation.

lCheck resistance value between each pair of ABS solenoid E70 and E71 terminals (No.1 (L), 2 ((R/B) 3
(L/W), 12 (Y/G), 25 (L/Y), 26 (B/Y), 27 (L/R), 28 (W/G).
ABS motor operation inspection
1. Connect 2-pin connector on ABS actuator E69 terminals No. 9
(R/B) and No. 10 (Y).
2. Apply voltage of Approx. 12V voltage between terminals E70
No. 5 (G/R) and terminals E71 No. 7 (W/G) on ABS relay unit.
Measure motor voltage (terminal E70 No. 4 (R/Y) - Body
ground) using an oscilloscope and check motor counter electro-
motive force duration when operation stops.
CAUTION:
lBefore measuring time, check each part of ABS relay unit
and confirm motor relay is normal.
lTo prevent overheating, ABS motor should be driven no
longer than 4 seconds.
lMotor counter electromotive force duration is based on the
time at 20°C, in ambient temperatures, with 12V battery volt-
age. If battery voltage is low, time will be slightly shorter.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Actuator operation check
1. Connect 19 and 21 terminals of actuator to 40 and 41 terminals
of relay box.
2. Measure the motor voltage (No.4 terminal to body earth ) with
oscilloscope. Then check the motor reverse voltage occasioned
time.
The motor reverse voltage occasioned time is more than 0.1
sec.
CAUTION:
lPerform checking of motor relay unit .Then confirm that
relay functions.
lDriving actuator motor is with in 4 sec to prevent heating
up.
lStandard condition of the motor reverse voltage occa-
sioned time is: Battery voltage is 12V. temperature 20°.
when the battery voltage or temperature is lower than the
standard, the motor reverse voltage occasioned time
becomesslightlyshorter.

Inspection procedure
1.INSPECTION START
Check the wheel speed sensor system.
lSensor mounting inspection
lSensor pick-up inspection for iron chips
lSensor rotor inspection (e.g. number of teeth, damaged teeth)
lSensor connector engagement inspection
Is inspection result OK?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Refer to wheel speed sensor and rotor lines.
2.LOOSENESS INSPECTION
Check the front axle for looseness.
Is inspection result OK?
YES >>BRC-112, "Symptom 2: Unexpected Pedal Action"
NO >> Axle inspection and repair
