Introduction 3-5
M-Car:
Automatic
This newly developed automatic transmission is light and compact for small
Transaxle
vehicles to provide smooth operation, swift driving, and improved fuel
consumption. Its electronically-controlled shifting timing and oil pressure Instructor Guide
have resulted in delicate gear change for various driving conditions including
throttle position and vehicle speed. Thus, smooth driving at all speed has
been realized.
In this transmission, a symmetrical three-element, single-stage and two-
phase of torque converter is employed. The transmission consists of 2 single
planetary gears, 3 sets of disc clutches, 1 set of disc brakes, 1 set of band
brake, 1 set of one-way clutch, etc.

1. Low clutch
The low clutch engages the rear internal gear and the front planetary
Instructor Guide carrier.
2. Low & reverse brake
- The low & reverse brake locks the front planetary carrier in reverse
gear.
- This brake operates in the 1st gear in the L range along with the
low clutch to lock the rear internal gear, which enables engine brake
in the L range.
3. High clutch
The high clutch engages the front planetary carrier and the input shaft,
which operates in the 3rd and 4th gears.
4. Reverse clutch
The reverse clutch engages the front sun gear and the input shaft, which
operates along with the low & reverse brake in reverse gear.
5. Low one-way clutch
The low one-way clutch prevents reverse rotation of the front carrier and
the rear internal gear which are engaged together by the low clutch. This
operates just mechanically. Because the front carrier and the rear internal
gear with low clutch is able to rotate clockwise, engine brake does not
occur.
6. 2-4 brake and brake servo
The 2-4 brake and brake servo lock the front sun gear. These operate in
the 2nd and the 4th gear. The 2-4 brake operates via the 2-4 brake servo
of which the engagement and release sides line pressure is applied to.
The brake operates when line pressure is applied only to the
engagement side. The 2-4 brake does not operate when line pressure is
applied to both of the engagement and release sides.
7. Lock-up clutch
The lock-up clutch inside the torque converter locks up under the
appropriate conditions in 3rd and 4th gears.

1. Pressure regulator valve
The pressure regulator valve regulates the oil pump discharge pressure to the
Instructor Guide set-up pressure.
AT fluid which has been regulated to the set-up pressure lubricates the
rotating parts, the torque converter and the inside of the valve.
The oil pressure changes in response to the driving range and throttle
position.
2. Manual valve
The manual valve shifts the line pressure paths directly via the select lever.
3. Pilot valve
The pilot valve keeps the oil pressure steady which fluctuates according to
driving conditions.
The oil pressure passing through this valve is called the pilot pressure. This
oil pressure is delivered through each solenoid valve to the operating side of
the shift valves and the pressure modifier valve.

To shift gears, the line pressure and the pilot pressure are used.

Line pressure which operates clutches and brakes is controlled by the
Instructor Guide
manual valve and the shift valves A and B.
Pilot pressure, which is line pressure regulated by the pilot valve, operates the
shift valves A and B and the lock-up control valve. It is controlled by the shift
solenoid valves A and B and the lock-up solenoid.
Line pressure is regulated by the pressure regulator valve in response to the
pressure modifier valve (throttle position) and the manual valve (selector lever
position). For control details, refer to the sections of the pressure regulator
valve, the pressure modifier valve and manual valve in Valves and solenoids.

Since the shift solenoid valve A and B are ON, the pilot pressure operates the

Since the manual valve is positioned for the L range, oil pressure which has

Therefore, line pressure passes through the manual valve and the shift valve
A and B, and then operates the low clutch and the low & reverse brake. Since

Instructor Guide Description
Vehicle speed sensor is installed in the AT case and detects the rotor teeth in

This sensor is a hall effect sensor, which generates 0V and 12V alternately.
As the vehicle speed increases, it produces more frequent voltage
alternation, which means higher frequency. The frequency variation signal
is monitored and input as vehicle speed. The vehicle speed and throttle
signals are used as basic data for gear shifting along with TP signal.

maintenance has been carried out.
Instructor Guide
The maintenance details are outlined in the Primary check and
Maintenance.
1. Power supply and voltage check
The battery voltage must be 10 - 14V when the engine is stopped.
2. AT fluid check
Check level and AT fluid condition.
3. Stall test
Check the engine speed at stall in each range, and check the overall
performance of the automatic transmission and the engine.
4. Oil pressure test
Measure the line pressure when idling and when the engine has stalled,
and check the functions of each component.
5. Ignition timing and idling engine speed check
Adjust these if they are not within the specified ranges.
If a problem occurs such as a fluctuating engine speed, troubleshoot
the engine first.
6. Select linkage check and adjustment
7. Throttle sensor check and adjustment
8. Road test
A road test is carried out to assess the problem properly and as a post
maintenance check.
9. Electrical wiring check
Check that the connectors fit securely, that the connector has neither
become rusty nor accumulated grime, that the terminals are secure and
have not become distorted and that no parts have become loose or

3-66 AT Fluid Level and Condition
M-Car:
Automatic
Transaxle
Procedure
1. Drive the vehicle until the ATF reaches normal condition (70 - 80C),
Instructor Guide usually 5 km driving in the city.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground and apply the parking brake. In engine
idling, move the select lever slowly from P through L and back to
P.
3. In engine idling, pick up the oil level gauge, wipe it clean with a paper
towel and insert it back to check the AT fluid level. The level of the fluid
should be within the range specified on the level gauge. If the level is too
low, add the recommended AT fluid. At this time, check the fluid for odor,
foreign matter, or discoloration.
Note:
The fluid level changes according to the ATF temperature. Be sure to
follow the procedure above when carrying out this check.
Before this check, wipe out dirt and grime from the level gauge to prevent
polluting inside the AT transmission.
Recommended AT fluid : ESSO JWS3314
Judgmental criteria
1. AT fluid level
The AT fluid level should be within the specified range. If the level is low,
check the transmission for leakage visually.
2. AT fluid condition
Normal AT fluid is red and of moderate viscosity. If the fluid has
become dark, much viscous, or smells abnormally (a burnt smell), carry
out the road, stall, and oil pressure tests. If the vehicle operates normally,
change the fluid and carry out the road test again.
If the fluid has become white in color, the oil cooler probably leaks.

Precautions 3-75
M-Car:
Automatic
When diagnosing and servicing AT Transaxle
1. When electronic problems are suspected for shifting malfunction. Instructor Guide
: Other than authentic parts or after-sales parts could sometimes
cause problems such as
- TCM malfunction by voltage drop by TV, Stereo sets and so on.
- TCM malfunction by electro-magnetic noise from low resistance high
tension cable.
2. Abnormal shifting point and Shifting shock
: Throttle position sensor could be a cause.
Throttle sensor with long mileage is worn out and its linearity is
degraded.
3. ATF replacement
- Non-authentic ATF can cause clutch capacity shortage, as a result,
shifting shock and slip in shifting.
- In case of water mixing with oil, ATF color becomes milk white.
You should replace AT TM
- If ATF color changes or air bubble is generated because of minor
water mixing or long mileage (0.1 million km), you should replace
ATF.
But, if ATF is polluted badly or you can smell burnt inside, you should
dismantle the AT and repair it.
4. If oil level is too high, abnormal heat generation and oil pressure drop
can cause clutches burn by resistance in operation.
5. Even in case of AT internal damage or breakage, Torque converter
circuit is protected by oil strainer, so you can re-use T/C after cleaning
it.
But, if you can confirm T/C is damaged, then replace it.

- In case that steel or foreign material is shown inside T/C, replace T/C
- In other cases, go to the third step and clean T/C
- As long as extremely much steel dust is not shown, it is not a matter.
