Automatic Transmission - Trans
Automatic Transmission - Trans
1. The automatic transmission is composed of highly precision-finished parts which need careful inspection
before reassembly because even a small nick could cause fluid leakage or affect performance. The
instructions here are organized so that you work on only one component group at a time. This will help
avoid confusion from similar-looking parts of different sub-assemblies being on your workbench at the
same time. The component groups should be inspected and repaired from the converter housing side.
Inspect, repair and reassemble as much as possible before proceeding to the next component group. If a
defect is found in a certain component group during reassembly, inspect and repair this group
immediately. If a component group cannot be assembled because parts are being ordered, be sure to keep
all parts of the group in a separate container while proceeding with disassembly, inspection, repair and

reassembly of other component groups. Recommended ATF: ATF WS
2. All disassembled parts should be washed clean and any fluid passages and holes should be blown through
with compressed air.
3. Dry all parts with compressed air. Never use shop rags.
4. When using compressed air, be careful not to not aim at yourself to prevent accidentally spraying ATF or
kerosene on your face.
5. Only recommended automatic transaxle fluid or kerosene should be used for cleaning.
6. After cleaning, the parts should be arranged in the correct order for efficient inspection, repairs, and
reassembly.
7. When disassembling a valve body, be sure to match each valve together with the corresponding spring.
8. New discs for the brakes and clutches that are to be used for replacement must be soaked in ATF for at
least 15 minutes before reassembly.
9. All oil seal rings, clutch discs, clutch plates, rotating parts, and sliding surfaces should be coated with
ATF prior to reassembly.
10. All gaskets and rubber O-rings should be replaced.
11. Do not apply adhesive cements to gaskets or similar parts.
12. Make sure that the ends of a snap ring are not aligned with one of the cutouts and are installed in the
groove correctly.
13. When replacing a worn bushing, the sub-assembly containing the bushing must also be replaced.
14. Check thrust bearings and races for wear or damage. Replace them as necessary.
15. Use petroleum jelly to keep parts in place.
16. When working with FIPG material, perform the following: Using a razor blade and a gasket scraper,
remove all the old packing (FIPG) material from the gasket surface.
Parts must be reassembled within 10 minutes of application. Otherwise, the packing (FIPG) material must
be removed and reapplied.
After servicing the transmission, you must refill the transmission with the correct amount of fluid.

3. TRANSMISSION FILL
a. Fill the transmission with the correct amount of fluid as listed in the table below.
b. Reinstall the refill plug to avoid fluid splash.
HINT:

6. Remove the refill plug and add fluid.
7. Reinstall the refill plug.
4. FLUID CIRCULATION
a. Allow the engine to idle with the air conditioning OFF.
b. Move the shift lever through entire gear range to circulate fluid.
5. FLUID TEMPERATURE CHECK
NOTE: On vehicles with air suspension, perform step c if you jack up the vehicle
while the engine is running.
2. Select the tester menus: OBD/MOBD, ENGINE, DATA LIST and A/T.
3. Check A/T OIL TEMP.
4. Allow the engine to idle until the fluid temperature reaches 46°C (115°F).
b. Without hand-held tester (Using D shift indicator)
1. Create a short circuit between CG (4) and TC (13) of the DLC3 terminals using SST (09843-
18040).
2. Move the shift lever back and forth between N and D at 1.5 seconds interval for six seconds.
3. The D shift indicator on the combination meter comes on for two seconds when the
combination meter begins to detect the fluid temperature.
4. The D shift indicator comes on again when the fluid temperature reaches 46°C (115°F) and
blinks when it exceeds 56°C (130°F).
c. For vehicles with air suspension (Using D shift indicator)
1. Create a short circuit between CG (4), OPA (11) and TC (13) of the DLC3 terminals using
SST (09843-18040).
2. Move the shift lever back and forth between N and D at 1.5 seconds interval for six seconds.
3. The D shift indicator on the combination meter comes on for two seconds when the
combination meter begins to detect the fluid temperature.
4. The D shift indicator comes on again when the fluid temperature reaches 46°C (115°F) and
blinks when it exceeds 56°C (130°F).
5. Allow the engine to idle until the fluid temperature reaches 46°C (115°F).
HINT:
The fluid temperature should be less than 30°C (86°F) before check the fluid temperature.
NOTE: The fluid temperature must be between 46°C (115°F) and 56°C (130°F) to
check the fluid level.
