Bleeding
1. BLEED POWER STEERING SYSTEM
(a) Check the fluid level (See page PS-2).
(b) Jack up the front of the vehicle and support it with stands.
(c) Turn the steering wheel.
(1) With the engine stopped, turn the steering wheel slowly from lock to lock several times.
(d) Lower the vehicle.

(2) Repeat this procedure several times.
(g) Stop the engine.
(h) Check for foaming or emulsification.
HINT: If the system has to be bled twice because of forming or emulsification, be sure to check for fluid leaks in the system.

Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Performance (Shift Solenoid
Valve SL1)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor to
detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th
or 5th gear).
Then the ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory
to detect mechanical
problems of the shift solenoid valves, valve b ...
Pressure Control Solenoid "D" Performance (Shift
Solenoid Valve SLT)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The linear solenoid valve (SLT) controls the transmission line pressure for
smooth transmission operation
based on signals from the throttle position sensor and the vehicle speed sensor.
The ECM adjusts the
duty ratio (*) of the SLT solenoid valve to control hydraulic line ...
