PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (A/T OIL PRESSURE)

    CAUTION:

    The stall speed test should always be performed with at least 2 people. One person should observe the condition of the wheels and wheel chocks while the other is performing the test.

    Note


    • This test must be conducted after checking and confirming that the engine is operating normally.

    • Perform this test while the CVT fluid temperature is between 50 and 100°C (122 and 212°F).

    • Perform this test with the A/C off.

    • Do not perform the stall speed test for longer than 5 seconds.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Fully apply the parking brake and chock all 4 wheels.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Connect the TC and TE1.


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Active Test
      Tester Display
      Connect the TC and TE1

    7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Primary.

    8. In accordance with the display on the GTS, read the Data List.

      Secondary oil pressure inspection:


        3ZR-FAE:

      • 3.5 to 4.5 MPa (35.7 to 45.9 kgf/cm2, 508 to 653 psi): D position stall speed test

      • 2.5 to 4.5 MPa (25.5 to 45.9 kgf/cm2, 363 to 653 psi): R position stall speed test

      • 0.140 to 0.400 MPa (1.4 to 4.1 kgf/cm2, 20 to 58 psi): With shift lever in D, engine is stopped by start and stop system (oil pump assembly with motor is operating)


        3ZR-FE:

      • 3.1 to 4.5 MPa (31.6 to 45.9 kgf/cm2, 450 to 653 psi): D position stall speed test

      • 2.1 to 4.5 MPa (21.4 to 45.9 kgf/cm2, 305 to 653 psi): R position stall speed test

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (OIL PRESSURE SENSOR - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the B32 oil pressure sensor connector.

    2. Disconnect the B93 ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      B32-1 (E2) - B93-109 (EPTO) Always Below 1 Ω
      B32-2 (PTO) - B93-79 (PTO) Always Below 1 Ω
      B32-3 (VC) - B93-110 (VCPT) Always Below 1 Ω
      B32-1 (E2) or B93-109 (EPTO) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      B32-2 (PTO) or B93-79 (PTO) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      B32-3 (VC) or B93-110 (VCPT) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      B93-79 (PTO) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V
      B32-2 (PTO) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V
