HYDRAULIC TEST

1. MEASURE LINE PRESSURE

NOTE:
- Perform the test at the normal operation ATF temperature of 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F).
- The line pressure test should always be performed with at least 2 people. One person should observe the condition of the wheels or wheel chocks while the other is performing the test.
- Be careful to prevent SST's hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
- Perform the test with the A/C OFF.




a. Warm up the ATF.
b. Remove the test plug on the front left side of the transmission case and connect SST.

c. Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
d. Start the engine and check idling speed.
e. Keep your left foot firmly on the brake pedal and move the shift lever to D.
f. Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
g. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and immediately read the highest line pressure when engine speed reaches stall speed.

NOTE: When conducting stall test, do not continue the tester for more than 10 seconds.




h. Perform steps (a) to (g) with the shift lever on R.
