TROUBLESHOOTING ITEM

DESCRIPTION

PAGE

1
Vehicle does not move in D, M ranges, or in R position
•  Vehicle does not move when accelerator pedal is depressed.
2
Vehicle moves in N position
•  Vehicle creeps in N position.
•  Vehicle creeps if brake pedal is not depressed in N position.
3
Vehicle moves in P position, or parking gear does not disengage when P position 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 accelerator pedal is depressed, and engine remains in stalled condition.
4
Excessive creep
•  Vehicle accelerates in D, M ranges and R position when 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 accelerator pedal is depressed while driving.
•  Ineffective engine performance on inclined roads.
7
No shifting
•  Fixed gear ratio.
•  Shifting or no shifting occurs.
8
Abnormal shifting (Shift pattern differs from normal)
•  Shift pattern differs from normal shift pattern.
9
Frequent shifting
•  Gear ratio changes immediately by depressing accelerator pedal slightly in D range.
10
Shift point is high or low
•  Shift point considerably different from automatic shift diagram when M range.
•  Shift delays when accelerating.
•  Shift occurs suddenly when accelerating and engine speed does not increase.
11
Torque converter clutch (TCC) non-operation
•  TCC does not operate when vehicle reaches TCC operation range.
12
No kickdown
•  Vehicle does not kick down (low gear ratio) even though accelerator pedal is fully depressed within kickdown vehicle speed.
13
Judder upon torque converter clutch (TCC) operation
•  Vehicle jolts when TCC is engaged.
14
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.
15
Excessive shift shock on torque converter clutch (TCC)
•  Strong shock is felt when TCC is engaged.
16
Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in all positions/ranges
•  Transaxle is noisy in all positions and ranges when vehicle idling.
17
Loud noise while driving in R, D, or M range/position
•  Abnormal noise and vibration occurs from near ATX while driving.
18
No engine braking
•  Engine speed drops to idle but vehicle coasts when accelerator pedal is released when low vehicle speed.
•  Engine braking does not operate even though accelerator pedal is released on a down slope.
19
Transaxle overheats
•  Burnt smell emitted from transaxle.
•  Smoke is emitted from transaxle.
20
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.
21
Engine stalls when driving at slow speeds or stopping
•  Engine stalls when brake pedal is depressed while driving at low speed or stopping.
22
Starter does not work
•  Starter does not work even when in P or N position.
23
M range indicator light constantly illuminated
•  M range indicator light illuminates in range other than M.
24
M range indicator light constantly off
•  M range indicator light does not illuminate in M range
25
Does not upshift in M range
•  M range indicator light in instrument cluster illuminates but vehicle does not upshift when selector lever is pushed to “+” side.
26
Does not downshift in M range
•  Gear position indicator light in instrument cluster illuminates but vehicle does not downshift when selector lever is pushed to “−” side.
