Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Hydraulic Test

HYDRAULIC TEST

1. PERFORM HYDRAULIC TEST

(a) Measure the line pressure.

CAUTION:

The line pressure test should always be performed with at least 2 people. One person should observe the condition of the wheels and wheel chocks while the other is performing the test.

NOTICE:

  • Perform the test while the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature is between 50 and 80°C (122 and 176°F).
  • Be careful to prevent the hose of SST from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
  • This check must be conducted after checking and adjusting the engine.
  • Perform the test with the air conditioning off.
  • When conducting stall test, do not continue for more than 5 seconds.
  • When performing the stall speed test more than once, make sure to wait 15 seconds or more between tests.

(1) Warm up the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid).

(2) Turn the ignition switch off.

(3) Lift the vehicle up.

(4) Remove the test plug from the transmission case and connect SST.

SST: 09993-19015

SST: 09993-19015

09993-00010

09993-00040

(5) Lower the vehicle.

(6) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.

(7) Start the engine and check the idling speed.

(8) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake pedal and move the shift lever to D.

(9) Fully depress the accelerator pedal with your right foot. Quickly read the highest line pressure when the engine speed reaches the stall speed.

(10) In the same manner, perform the test with the shift lever in R.

Evaluation

Problem

Possible Cause

Measured values are higher than the specified value in all positions

  • Shift solenoid valve SLT defective
  • Regulator valve defective

Measured values are lower than the specified value in all positions

  • Shift solenoid valve SLT defective
  • Regulator valve defective
  • Oil pump defective

Pressure is low in D position only

  • D position circuit fluid leak
  • No. 1 clutch (C1) defective

Pressure is low in R position only

  • R position circuit fluid leak
  • No. 2 brake (B2) defective
  • No. 3 brake (B3) defective

Inspection
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1. INSPECT OIL CLEARANCE (a) Using a micrometer and caliper gauge, measure the oil seal clearance. Standard clearance: 0.021 to 0.043 mm (0.0008 to 0.0017 in.) Maximum clearance: 0.07 mm (0.0028 in.) If it is greater than the maximum, replace the vane pump assembly. ...

Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Stereo Component Amplifier and Combination Meter
DESCRIPTION The stereo component amplifier assembly receives a vehicle speed signal from the combination meter assembly to control the ASL function. HINT: A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the combination meter assembly. The signal is changed to a pu ...
