Functional Test Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Suzuki Swift +, 2005 Pontiac Wave, and 2005 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The purpose of the stall test is to inspect overall performance of the A/T and the engine by measuring the stall speed in drive (D) and reverse (R) range.

Wedge the 4 wheels and fully apply the parking brake. Lock the vehicle in place.
Fully press on the brake pedal with left foot.

IMPORTANT: Do not continuously run longer than 5 seconds, extreme increasing of the oil temperature may occur.

Shift into drive (D) and reverse (R) range, fully press on accelerator pedal with right foot.
Specification: The standard stall speed is 2,240-2,540 RPM.

Make sure to keep interval for more than 1 minute between stall tests.

Functional Test Procedure

Result of Stall Test	Cause of Failure
Lower than standards in both drive (D) and reverse (R)	Less engine power Torque converter 1-way clutch failure
Higher than standards only in drive (D)	Lower line pressure Pressure control solenoid (PCS) failure Primary regulator valve failure Forward clutch (C1) failure, slipping No. 2 1-way clutch (F2) failure
Higher than standards only in reverse (R)	Lower line pressure PCS failure Primary regulator failure Reverse clutch (C3) failure, slipping 1st and reverse brake (B3) failure, slipping
Higher than standards in both drive (D) and reverse (R)	Lower line pressure PCS failure Primary regulator failure Oil pump failure Oil strainer failure, clogging Oil leak for each range circuit
