Manual Road Test

WARNING:

If you do not select a suitable route and take proper precautions when performing a road test, an accident can occur.

- Select a level road with no traffic to minimize the risk of accident.
- Perform the test extremely carefully.
- Perform the road test using 2 persons, a driver and an assistant.

The purpose of this test is to judge whether causal factor of trouble which occurred in automatic transmission is electrical or mechanical by disconnecting solenoid connector (1) and fixing automatic transmission gear position (fail-safe function).
1) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2) After warming up engine, turn ignition switch to OFF position and disconnect solenoid connector (1).





3) Turn transfer switch (1) to 4H position (2) (motor-shift type 4WD model).





4) Turn OFF all electrical loads.

With shift select lever shifted to each range ("L", "2", "3" and "D") drive vehicle at 1,000 rpm engine speed and then check vehicle speed by referring to "Fixed gear position".

If vehicle speed is not as specified in "Fixed gear position" table, go to troubleshooting.
5) Connect solenoid connector and clear DTC.
