partially engaged bypass valves, and loose or
damaged control linkages . Be sure to perform
all operational checks and adjustments outlined
in Service and Maintenance, before assuming
the transaxle is malfunctioning . The table below
provides a troubleshooting checklist to help
determine the cause of operational problems .

justments with the engine running.

the drive belt assembly and all vehicle
linkage!
