Stall Test

NOTES:
- This test is performed to determine if there is slippage of the friction elements or a malfunction of the hydraulic components.

- Perform the preparation procedure before performing this test.

WARNING: Apply the service and parking brakes firmly while performing each STALL TEST. Failure to set the brakes may result in death or bodily injury.

CAUTION: Perform the LINE PRESSURE TEST prior to performing the STALL TEST. If line pressure is low at stall, do not perform the STALL TEST or further transaxle damage will occur. Do not keep the WOT in any gear range for more than 5 seconds.









PROCEDURE
1. Start the engine
2. Shift the selector lever to R position

CAUTION: If the accelerator pedal is pressed for longer than 5 seconds while the brake pedal is pressed, the transaxle could be damaged. Therefore, do steps 3 and 4 within 5 seconds of each other.

3. Firmly depress the foot brake with the left foot, and gently depress the accelerator pedal with the right foot
4. When the engine speed no longer increases, quickly read the engine speed and release the accelerator
5. Shift the selector to N position and let the engine idle for 1 minute or more to cool the ATF
6. Perform stall tests for the remaining ranges in the same manner. Engine stall speed should be within 2,200 - 2,500 rpm.
