Pressure Tests
Pressure TestsSpecial Tools Required
^ A/T oil pressure gauge set 07406-0020400 or 07406-0020401
^ A/T low pressure gauge 07406-0070300
^ A/T pressure hose, 2,210 mm 07MAJ-PY4011A
^ A/T pressure hose adapter 07MAJ-PY40120
1. Before testing, be sure the transmission fluid is filled to the proper level.
2. Raise the front of the vehicle, and make sure it is securely supported.
3. Set the parking brake, and block rear wheels securely.
4. Allow the front wheels to rotate freely.
5. Warm up the engine (the radiator fan comes on), then stop it, and connect the tachometer.
6. Connect the oil pressure gauges to each inspection hole, and do not allow dust or other foreign particles to enter the holes while connecting the gauges.
NOTE:
^ Drive pulley pressure may be above 3,430 kPa (3.43 MPa, 35.0 kgf/cm2, 498 psi) when there is a transmission problem that causes the PCM to go into the fail-safe mode.
^ When troubleshooting by the D indicator light indicates a problem, you must use an oil pressure gauge that measures 4,900 kPa (4.90 MPa, 50.0 kgf/cm2, 711 psi) or more when measuring drive pulley pressure and driven pulley pressure.
^ Use a commercially available oil pressure gauge that measures 4,900 kPa (4.90 MPa, 50.0 kgf/cm2, 711 psi) or more, and the A/T Oil Pressure Hose, 2,210 mm (07MAJ-PY4011A).
TORQUE: 18 Nm (1.8 kgf-cm,13 ft. lbs.)
7. Start the engine.
8. Shift to the D position, and measure the forward clutch pressure at 1,700 rpm.
9. Shift to the R position, and measure the reverse brake pressure at 1,700 rpm.
10. Shift to the N position, and measure the drive pulley pressure and driven pulley pressure at 1,700 rpm.
11. Measure the lubrication pressure at 3,000 rpm in the N position.
12. Disconnect the special tools after pressure testing.
13. Install the sealing bolt with a new sealing washers, and tighten the bolts to the specified torque.
TORQUE: 18 Nm (1.8 kgf-cm, 13 ft. lbs.)
NOTE: Do not reuse old sealing washers.
