Test VER-1

  1. Connect DRB to Data Link Connector (DLC). Reconnect any disconnected components. With DRB, erase all trouble codes. With DRB, display transmission temperature. Start and run engine until transmission is at normal operating temperature.
  2. Check transaxle fluid and adjust if necessary. If Transmission Control Module (TCM) module, torque converter or transaxle has been replaced, perform computer relearn procedure.
    CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See the COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL INFORMATION section before disconnecting battery.
  3. Road test vehicle. With DRB, read "RPM Display" under "Monitor". Make 15-20 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4 upshifts. Perform these shifts from a standing start to 45 MPH with a constant throttle opening of 20-25 degrees. At speeds less than 25 MPH, make 5-8 wide open throttle kickdowns to first gear. Allow at least 5 seconds each in 2nd and 3rd between each kickdown.
  4. Diagnose power steering system, using a DRB scan tool, if power steering is suspected of not functioning properly. Test consists of checking available power steering assist, using DRB scan tool, to create an electrically simulated vehicle speed of zero to 60 MPH.
  5. Solenoid control valve and solenoid control module are both serviceable components. Both components are replaceable without requiring removal of steering gear from vehicle.
