Monitor Scan Tool Data

Connect scan tool to data link connector (DLC).
Engine "ON".
Monitor the "ENGINE SPEED, INPUT SPEED SENSOR (PG-A), OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (PG-B), GEAR POSITION" parameter on the scan tool.

Perform the "STALL TEST" at gear position "1"

Specification: 2400-2800 engine RPM

Stall test procedure in D1 and reason

Procedure

Warm up the engine
Fully depress the brake pedal, then place the transaxle gear lever into "D" range. Press and hold the accelerator pedal to the floor for no more than eight seconds while observing the engine, input speed, and output speed RPM value.
* The slippage of 1st gear operating parts can be detected by stall test in D1.

Reason for stall test

If there is no mechanical defaults in A/T, all slippage occurs in torque converter.
Therefore, engine revolution is output, but input and output speed revolution must be "zero" due to wheel's lock.
If 1st gear operating part has faults, input speed revolution will be out of specification.
If output speed revolution is output. It means that the foot brake force is not applied fully. Remeasuring is required.

Is "STALL TEST" within specification?
YES : --> Go to SIGNAL CIRCUIT INSPECTION procedure.

NO : --> Go to "COMPONENT INSPECTION " procedure.

CAUTION:

Do not let anybody stand in front of or behind the vehicle while this test is being carried out.
Check the A/T fluid level and temperature and the engine coolant temperature.
- Fluid level: At the hot mark on the oil level gauge.
- Fluid temperature: 176-212°F (80-100°C).
- Engine coolant temperature: 176-212°F (80-100°C).
Chock both rear wheel (left and right).
Pull the parking brake lever on with the brake pedal fully depressed.
The throttle should not be left fully open for more than eight seconds.
If carrying out the stall test two or more times, move the select lever to the "N" position and run the engine at 1,000 RPM to let the A/T fluid cool down before carrying out subsequent tests.

* Perform stall test on "L" range If the result of stall test on "D" range is out of specifications.

"One Way Clutch" is faulty If the result of stall test on "L" range is within specifications.
