(7) Allow vehicle wheels to turn and increase throttle opening to achieve an indicated vehicle speed (8) Verify the torque converter clutch is applied mode using the RPM display of the DRB scan tool. (9) Torque converter clutch on pressure should be 60-90 psi. TEST SIX-SELECTOR IN R NOTE: This test checks the reverse clutch hydrau- (1) Attach gauge to the reverse and LR clutch tap. tionary (foot on brake) and throttle opened to achieve (4) Reverse and LR clutch pressure should read 165 to 235 psi. TEST RESULT INDICATIONS (1) If proper line pressure is found in any one test, the pump and pressure regulator are working prop- (2) Low pressure in all positions indicates a defec- tive pump, a clogged filter, or a stuck pressure regu- (3) Clutch circuit leaks are indicated if pressures do not fall within the specified pressure range. (4) If the overdrive clutch pressure is greater than 5 psi in Step 7 of Test Three, a worn reaction shaft seal (5) If the underdrive clutch pressure is greater than 5 psi in Step 5 of Test 2A, a defective solenoid CLUTCH AIR PRESSURE TESTS Inoperative clutches can be located by substituting air pressure for fluid pressure. The clutches may be To make air pressure tests, proceed as follows: NOTE: The compressed air supply must be free of Remove oil pan and valve body. See Valve body recondition. Apply air pressure to the holes in the special tool, one at a time. Listen for the clutch to apply. It will give a slight thud sound. If a large amount of air is heard escap- OVERDRIVE CLUTCH Apply air pressure to the overdrive clutch apply passage and watch for the push/pull piston to move UNDERDRIVE CLUTCH Because this clutch piston cannot be seen, its oper- ation is checked by function. Air pressure is applied REVERSE CLUTCH Apply air pressure to the reverse clutch apply pas- sage and watch for the push/pull piston to move rear- 2/4 CLUTCH Apply air pressure to the feed hole located on the 2/4 clutch retainer. Look in the area where the 2/4 LOW/REVERSE CLUTCH Apply air pressure to the low/reverse clutch feed hole passage. Look in the area where the low/reverse FLUID LEAKAGE The 42LE is a dual sump transaxle. The transaxle uses both automatic transaxle fluid (ATF) for the There are two seals at the boundary of the two sumps.
