TROUBLESHOOTING ITEM

DESCRIPTION

PAGE

1
Vehicle does not move in D, M ranges, or in R position
• Vehicle does not move when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
2
Vehicle moves in N position
• Vehicle creeps in N position.
• Vehicle creeps if the brake pedal is not depressed in N position.
3
Vehicle moves in P position, or parking gear does not disengage when P is disengaged
• Vehicle rolls when on a downward slope and tires do not lock in P position.
• Tires locked when P position is disengaged, vehicle does not move in D, M ranges, and R position when the accelerator pedal is depressed, and engine remains in stalled condition.
4
Excessive creep
• Vehicle accelerates in D, M ranges and R position when the accelerator pedal is not depressed.
5
No creep at all
• Vehicle does not move in D, M ranges, or R position when idling on flat paved road.
6
Low maximum speed and poor acceleration
• Vehicle acceleration is poor at start.
• Delayed acceleration when the accelerator pedal is depressed while driving.
7
No shifting
• Single shift range only.
• Sometimes shifts correctly.
8
Does not shift to 5GR
• Vehicle does not upshift from 4GR to 5GR even though vehicle speed is increased.
• Vehicle does not shift to 5GR even though the accelerator pedal is released in D range at 60 km/h {37 mph}.
9
Abnormal shifting
• Shifts incorrectly (incorrect shift pattern).
10
Frequent shifting
• Downshifting occurs suddenly even when the accelerator pedal is depressed slightly in D range.
11
Shift point is high or low
• Shift point considerably different from automatic shift diagram.
• Shift delays when accelerating.
• Shift occurs suddenly when accelerating and engine speed does not increase.
12
Torque converter clutch (TCC) non-operation
• TCC does not operate when vehicle reaches TCC operation range.
13
No kickdown
• Does not downshift when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed within kickdown range.
14
Engine flares up or slips when upshifting or downshifting
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed, engine speed increases normally but vehicle speed increases slowly.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed while driving, engine speed increases but vehicle speed does not increase.
15
Engine flares up or slips when accelerating vehicle
• Engine flares up when the accelerator pedal is depressed for upshifting.
• Engine flares up suddenly when the accelerator pedal is depressed for downshifting.
16
Judder upon torque converter clutch (TCC) operation
• Vehicle jolts when TCC is engaged.
17
Excessive shift shock from N to D or N to R position/range
• Strong shock is felt when shifting from N to D or N to R position/range at idle.
18
Excessive shift shock is felt when upshifting and downshifting
• Excessive shift shock is felt when depressing the accelerator pedal to accelerate at upshifting.
• During cruising, excessive shift shock is felt when depressing the accelerator pedal at downshifting.
19
Excessive shift shock on torque converter clutch (TCC)
• Strong shock is felt when the TCC is engaged.
20
Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in all positions/ranges
• Transaxle is noisy in all positions and ranges when the vehicle is idling.
21
Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in D, M ranges, or in R position
• Transaxle is noisy in driving ranges when the vehicle is idling.
22
No engine braking in 1GR position of M range
• Engine speed drops to idle but vehicle coasts when the accelerator pedal is released when in M range (1GR) at low vehicle speed.
23
Transaxle overheats
• Burnt smell emitted from the transaxle.
• Smoke is emitted from the transaxle.
24
Engine stalls when shifted to D, M ranges, or in R position
• Engine stalls when shifting from N or P position to D, M ranges or R position at idle.
25
Engine stalls when driving at slow speeds or stopping
• Engine stalls when the brake pedal is depressed while driving at low speed or stopping.
26
Starter does not work
• Starter does not work even when in P or N position.
27
Gear position indicator light does not illuminate in M range
• Gear position indicator light in instrument cluster does not illuminate in M range with the ignition at ON.
28
Gear position indicator light illuminates in P, R, N position and D range
• Gear position indicator light in instrument cluster illuminates in P, R, N position and D range with the ignition at ON.
29
Does not upshift in M range
• Gear position indicator light in instrument cluster illuminates but vehicle does not upshift when the selector lever is pushed to “+” side.
30
Does not downshift in M range
• Gear position indicator light in instrument cluster illuminates but vehicle does not downshift when the selector lever is pushed to “–” side.
31
M range position indicator light does not illuminate in M range /M range position indicator light illuminates in D range
• M range position indicator light in instrument cluster does not illuminate in M range when ignition switch is in ON position.
• M range position indicator light illuminates in D range when ignition switch is in ON position.
