Line Pressure Test
Line Pressure Test
CAUTION: Carry out the Line Pressure Test prior to carrying out the Stall Speed Test. If line pressure is low at stall, do not carry out the Stall Speed Test or further transmission damage will occur. Do not maintain wide-open throttle in any transmission range for more than 5 seconds or transmission damage may occur.
NOTE: If the Transmission Tester is installed it must be removed prior to carrying out the test.
NOTE: If equipped, turn the Power Take-Off (PTO) unit off for correct test results. For a description of PTO operation, refer to Transmission Electronic Control System. Transmission Electronic Control System
NOTE: Carry out shift linkage check prior to carrying out this test.
This test verifies the line pressure is within specifications.
1. Connect the Pressure Gauge to the line pressure tap.
2. Start the engine and check the line pressures. Refer to the Line Pressure Chart to determine if the line pressure is within specification.
3. If the line pressure is not within specifications, carry out On-Board Diagnostics and Go to Pinpoint Test E, air pressure check, and clean, inspect and install a new main control system or pump as required. Test E: Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
