Line Pressure Check Procedure



Line Pressure Check Procedure

^ Tools Required
- DT 46450 (DW240-010-02) Oil Pressure Gage Adapter

The hydraulic test can inspect the working condition inside the automatic transmission (A/T) by measuring line pressure in drive (D)/reverse (R) range and idle/stall condition.





1. Wedge the 4 wheels and apply the parking brake fully. Lock the vehicle in place.
2. Install the DT 46450 to test the hole (1) for line pressure.

3. Important:
Do not continuously run longer than 5 seconds. Extreme increasing of oil temperature may occur.

Fully press on the brake pedal with left foot, shift into drive (D) and reverse (R) range and measure the line pressure idle/stall condition.
^ The engine idle line pressure in drive (D) is 0.14 - 0.37 mPa (20.30 - 53.70 psi).
^ The engine idle line pressure in reverse (R) is 0.59 - 0.68 mPa (85.60 - 98.62 psi).
^ The engine stall line pressure in drive (D) is 1.10 - 1.23 mPa (159.54 - 178.40 psi).
^ The engine stall line pressure in reverse (R) is 1.58 - 1.83 mPa (229.16 - 265.41 psi).
Make sure to keep interval for more than 1 minute between stall tests.
Make sure to check that there is no oil leak after installing the DT 46450.
