Toyota Corolla (E120): Hydraulic test
1. Perform hydraulic test
- Measure the line pressure.
Notice
:
- Do the test at normal operation atf temperature 50 to 80 °c (122 to 176 °f).
- The line pressure test should always be carried out in pairs. One technician should observe the conditions of wheels or wheel stopper outside the vehicle while the other is doing the test.
- Be careful to prevent sst’s hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
- Warm up the atf.

System description
The ecm uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor and crankshaft position
sensor to detect the actual
gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or o/d gear).
Then the ecm compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ecm memory
to detect the mechanical
trouble of the shift solenoid valves, th ...
