Secure the front right tire with a suitable strap.  This will assist in making the belt turn. 3. Mark the front left tire with a suitable marking.  This will assure all 360° of the belt is inspected. Figure 5 4. Using borescope J-51951 with mirror attachment, inspect the entirety of the two sides of the belt that come in contact with the pulleys (see page 10, Figure 11). Reference the pictures on pages 10 through 14 for comparison. Belt Pulley Case NOTE:  Be sure to remove the protective film from the mirror before the first use.   Step 4a Clean the camera lens and mirror before each inspection. Use 90% isopropyl alcohol, and a lens swab from Lens Swab packet J-51963 listed in PARTS INFORMATION. Step 4c Figure 6 Before inspecting, make sure the camera handle’s AA batteries are fresh and the LCD monitor’s battery is charged. Camera flexible tube Front a. Insert the camera lens between the CVT case and pulley where shown in Figure 6 and 7.  Insert the lens approximately seven (7) inches, and then view the side of the belt that contacts the pulley. Figure 7 8/23 NTB15-084b b. Slowly and carefully turn the front left tire one full turn in the forward rotation to view all of the belt.  Holding the borescope with one hand allows for turning the tire with the other hand (see Figure 8). CAUTION: If the tire is rotated in the rearward rotation, the camera lens may get caught between the belt and pulley. c. If the inspection result is OK, inspect the other side of the belt.  Figure 8 Insert the camera lens in the second location where shown in Figure 6 and 9, and then perform step 4b again. d. If the inspection result is OK 360° on both sides of the belt, skip to step 5 on the next page.  If any evidence of belt slippage is found, go to step 4e, and then step 6.  For additional information, see video # 544: “CVT Belt Inspection”. This video is located under the TECH TRAINING GARAGE VIDEOS tab in Virtual Academy. e. Once it is determined that CVT replacement is required, use borescope J-51951 to record a 15 second or less continuous video of the most severe evidence of belt slip and the VIN on the F.M.V.S.S. certification label (VIN label). See Figure 10. NOTE: This required video must be attached to the Powertrain Call Center CVT Preauthorization Form (in ASIST) prior to calling for authorization. Failure to submit a continuous video will cause immediate denial of request for replacement. 9/23 Pulley Front Figure 9 VIN label Figure 10 NTB15-084b    Before starting to record, make sure the camera handle’s AA batteries are fresh and the LCD monitor’s battery is charged. The whole video will show as backward, or reversed mirror image. This is okay. The required video must show clear evidence of belt slippage and be 15 seconds or less. 5. If the belt inspection result is OK, replace the valve body.   There is no need for pictures or video showing “OK” belt surfaces. For valve body replacement, go to page 15, Control Valve (Valve Body) Installation. 6. If the belt inspection result is NG, replace the CVT assembly.  Get authorization to replace the CVT assembly (see page 23).  Make sure to perform step 4e on page 9.  For CVT assembly replacement, refer to the appropriate ESM, section TM – Transaxle & Transmission / RE0F10D.
