Line Pressure Test: Notes
CAUTION:
- Carry out the Line Pressure Test before carrying out the Stall Speed Test. If line pressure is low at stall, do not carry out stall test or further transaxle damage can occur. Do not maintain wide open throttle (WOT) In any gear range for more than 5 seconds.
CAUTION:
- The Transmission Tester must be removed from the transaxle and the vehicle harness connected to verify these pressures.
The Line Pressure Test verifies that the line pressure is within specifications.
- Connect pressure gauge to the line pressure tap.
- Start the engine and check the line pressures. See the following LINE PRESSURE CHART (2.3L AND 3.0L) to determine if the line pressure is within specifications.
- If the line pressure is not within specifications, carry out on-board diagnostics and the pinpoint test, air pressure check and repair the main control system or pump as required.
