Problem diagnostics АТ - the general information

Refusals АТ occur on one of following five reasons more often:

a) Decrease in efficiency of return of the engine;
b) Infringement of adjustments;
c) Malfunction of hydraulics;
d) Mechanical damages;
e) Refusals of the onboard processor / its alarm chain.

The problem diagnostics always should begin with the most simple checks: estimate level and condition ATF (see the Head of Adjustment and routine maintenance), check up adjustment of drives of a gear change and throttle заслонки. Further, spend trial runs of the car for the purpose of definition of efficiency of the brought corrections. If to eliminate a problem it was not possible, it is necessary to drive away the car on a car repair shop for more detailed diagnostics with application of the special equipment. The description of infringements of functioning АТ some of symptoms is resulted in the Section devoted to a problem diagnostics of knots and systems of the car in the beginning of the present Management.

Primary checks

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. During a short trip warm up transmission to normal working temperature.
2. Check up level ATF (see the Head of Adjustment and routine maintenance):

a) If to a liquid has not enough, make corresponding updating, having added necessary quantity fresh ATF. Be convinced of correctness of the spent updating under indications measuring щупа, then check up transmission on presence of signs of external leaks;
b) If level is excessively high, merge surplus ATF, then check up it on presence of traces of presence of the cooling liquid, testifying to infringement of tightness of internal partitions of the radiator separating its heat exchanger from lateral tanks with ATF;
c) If ATF it is made foam, empty transmission and fill with its fresh liquid, - merged ATF check up on presence of traces of presence of a cooling liquid.
3. Check up installation of turns of idling of the engine (see the Head of the Power supply system and release). In case of need drive away the car on a car repair shop for performance of corresponding adjustments.

If the engine is not perfectly in order, it is not necessary to start performance of primary checks of transmission until corresponding corrections will be made.

Diagnostics of leaks ATF

The general information

The majority of leaks easily come to light at visual check. Repair usually consists in replacement of a corresponding defective epiploon or a lining. If to reveal a source of leak during external survey it is not possible, operate, as it is described more low.

First of all it is necessary to exclude probability of an error in definition of the nature of leak. It is not necessary to confuse ATF to impellent oil or a brake liquid (transmission the liquid usually has dark red colour).

For revealing of a source of leak make short (some kilometres) a trip, then park the car over the spread blank leaf of a cardboard. After pair minutes the leak source can be revealed on traces of a liquid dripping on a cardboard.

Attentively examine a suspected site and a surface surrounding it, special attention giving to joints interfaced прокладочных surfaces. For the purpose of expansion of a corner of the review take advantage of a pocket pocket mirror.

If to reveal a leak source still it is not possible, carefully wipe a surface of a suspected site the rags moistened with solvent, then dry it.

Make one more short trip, this time often changing speed of movement, then again examine the cleaned suspected site.

After revealing of a source of leak, it is necessary to define and eliminate the reason of its development, and only then to pass to performance of necessary regenerative works. Replacement of the damaged lining will not lead to desirable result if to leave not eliminated the defect of the interfaced surface which have led to an exit of a sealant out of operation. So, the deformed flange it is necessary отрихтовать.

In below-mentioned subsections the most typical reasons of development of leaks ATF and conditions which should be executed that there were no relapses are listed.

Part from the listed requirements cannot be executed without application of the special equipment. In this case the car should be driven away on a car repair shop.

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Periodically examine the pallet картера transmissions. Check presence on the places and reliability of a tightening of fixing bolts, watch, that on a cover there were no traces of mechanical damages (pallet deformation can lead to failure located in transmission клапанной assemblages).
2. Excessively hard tightening of fixing bolts, infringement of passableness of a ventilating line, mechanical damage of a sealing surface concern number of the possible reasons of development of leaks through the pallet картера transmissions, lining destruction, and also occurrence of cracks or порозности walls картера. If the lining of the pallet or картера transmissions is formed by a hermetic pillow, the probability of a wrong choice of type of the last is not excluded. Overflow can result in leaks чрез картера трансмиссионной a liquid, or increase of pressure ATF a pallet lining also.
