Repair Procedures: Removal

CAUTION:

When the solenoid valve failure code (DTC) is on, perform the following procedure to replace it.
Automatic transaxle is composed of delicate components. Be careful not to cause any damage on the component in the course of assembly and disassembly.
Maintain clean condition so that foreign substance does not get into the automatic transaxle.
Use a coated apron, latex gloves, and stainless tray to prevent foreign substance from getting into the transaxle.
Automatic Transaxle Fluid (ATF) can be reused. Collect it using a clean 10-Liter beaker.

Remove the air duct.
(Refer to: Engine Mechanical System - "AIR CLEANER ").
Remove the battery and the battery tray.
(Refer to: Engine Electrical System - "BATTERY ").
Remove the under cover.
(Refer to: Engine Mechanical System - "ENGINE ROOM UNDER COVER ").
Remove the ATF warmer.
(Refer to: Automatic Transaxle System - "ATF WARMER ") (if equipped ATF warmer).
Remove the drain plug (A) and reinstall the drain plug after draining ATF totally.
