Test Driving the Electronic Automatic Transaxle Complaint Vehicles

Some Electronic Automatic transaxles complaints will require a test drive as a part of the diagnostic procedure. The purpose of the test drive is normally to duplicate a fault condition.

Caution: Before test driving a transaxle complaint vehicle, make sure that the transaxle has completed the shift lever test successfully, has a proper fluid level, and the fluid is not burned. There could be a reduction in EATX performance if these conditions are not met.
