NO.20 NOISE OCCURS AT IDLE WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED IN ALL POSITIONS/RANGES [FS5A-EL]

id050308802500

20 | Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in all positions/ranges
DESCRIPTION | • Transaxle is noisy in all positions and ranges when the vehicle is idling.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • The malfunction is in the oil pump which causes a high-pitched noise to be emitted from the transaxle at idle. Note • If a noise is emitted during shifting only, the malfunction is in shift solenoid D, E or shift solenoid A, B, C. If a noise is emitted during shifting at certain gears only or during deceleration only, it is gear noise. • Before following the troubleshooting steps, make sure that the Automatic Transaxle On-Board Diagnostic and Automatic Transaxle Basic Inspection are conducted.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | Inspect engine condition. Is there any engine concern (i. e. rough idle)? | Yes | Go to appropriate symptom troubleshooting. (See ENGINE SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING [L8, LF, L3].)
No | Go to the next step.
2 | Does the noise stop when the solenoid connector is disconnected? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Overhaul the control valve body and repair or replace any malfunctioning parts. (See ATX workshop manual [FS5A-EL].) If any problem remains, overhaul the transaxle and repair or replace any malfunctioning parts. (See ATX workshop manual [FS5A-EL].)
3 | Inspect the value at the following PCM and TCM PIDs using the WDS or equivalent. (See PCM INSPECTION [L8, LF, L3].) (See TCM INSPECTION [FS5A-EL].) PCM PIDs: • APP • TP REL TCM PIDs: • THOP • OSS • TSS Are the PID values normal? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace any malfunctioning parts.
4 | Disconnect the TCM connector. Is the resistance between the ground terminal at the TCM connector and the body ground less than 5.0 ohms? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair the open ground circuit. Reconnect the TCM.
5 | Inspect the LPS PID value. Is the LPS PID value normal? (See TCM INSPECTION [FS5A-EL].) | Yes | Overhaul the control valve body and repair or replace any malfunctioning parts. (See ATX workshop manual [FS5A-EL].) If any problem remains, overhaul the transaxle and repair or replace any malfunctioning parts. (See ATX workshop manual [FS5A-EL].)
No | Repair or replace any malfunctioning parts.
6 | • Verify the test results. - If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. - If the malfunction remains, inspect the related Service information and perform repair or diagnosis. • If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting is completed. • If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, replace the TCM.
