1. Remove engine under cover no.1 2. Disconnect cable from negative battery terminal 3. Drain automatic transaxle fluid (see page ax-131) 4. Remove automatic transaxle oil pan subassembly

(a) Remove the 18 bolts, oil pan and gasket.
| NOTICE: Some fluid will remain in the oil pan. Carefully remove the oil pan so that the fluid remaining in the pan does not spill out. |

(b) Remove the 2 magnets from the oil pan.

(c) Examine particles in the pan.
(1) Collect any steel chips using the removed magnets. Look carefully at the chips and particles in the pan and on the magnets to see the type of wear which might be found in the transaxle.
Result: Steel (magnetic): Wear of the bearing, gear or plate Brass (non-magnetic): Wear of the bearing
5. DISCONNECT TRANSMISSION WIRE

(a) Disconnect the 7 shift solenoid valve connectors.
(b) Remove the bolt and lock plate, and disconnect the ATF temperature sensor.
6. REMOVE VALVE BODY OIL STRAINER ASSEMBLY

(a) Remove the 3 bolts and oil strainer.
| NOTICE: Be careful when removing the oil strainer as fluid will come out. |

(b) Remove the O-ring from the valve body oil strainer assembly.
7. REMOVE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY

(a) Support the valve body assembly and remove the 17 bolts and the transmission valve body assembly.

(b) Remove the check ball body and the spring.

(c) Remove the bolt and lock plate from the valve body assembly.
(d) Remove the shift solenoid valve SL3 and SLT from the valve body assembly.

(e) Remove the bolt and shift solenoid valve S4 from the valve body assembly

(f) Remove the shift solenoid valve SR from the valve body assembly.

(g) Remove the bolt and shift solenoid valve DSL from the valve body assembly.

(h) Remove the bolt and shift solenoid valve SL2 from the valve body assembly.

(i) Remove the bolt and shift solenoid valve SL1 from the valve body assembly.

Power Seat Motor Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the power seat control switch is operated, a command signal is sent to
the position control ECU
and switch assembly (power seat control switch and ECU). The front power seat
switch then controls the
appropriate seat motor as needed. This memory system does not use a seat

Perform zero point calibration of yaw rate and deceleration sensor (when
using sst check wire)
NOTICE:
While obtaining the zero point, do not vibrate the
vehicle by tilting, moving or shaking it and keep it
in a stationary condition. (Do not turn the ignition
switch to the ON position.)
Be sure to do this on a level surface (with an
inclination of less than 1 %).
