July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Air Pressure Tests

A no-drive condition can exist even with correct transaxle fluid pressure because of inoperative clutches or bands. Refer to the REFERENCE: CLUTCH/BAND APPLICATION CHART NO. 601 to determine the appropriate elements. A clutch concern can be located by substituting air pressure for oil pressure to determine the location of the malfunction.

For example when the transaxle range selector lever is in a forward gear range (D, 2, 1) a no-drive condition can be caused by an inoperative forward clutch.
