NOISY OPERATION Transmission noise is most often a result of worn
or damaged components. Chipped, broken gear or
synchronizer teeth and brinnelled, spalled bearings
all cause noise.
Abnormal wear and damage to internal compo­
nents is frequently the end result of insufficient lu­
bricant, non-recommended lubricants, or improper operation.
SLIPS
OUT OF
GEAR

Transmission disengagement may be caused by
misaligned or damaged shift components, or worn
teeth on the mainshaft gears or synchro components. Incorrect assembly will also contribute to gear disen­gagement.

LOW LUBRICANT LEWEL
Insufficient transmission lubricant is usually the
result of leaks, or inaccurate fluid level check or re­
fill method.
Leaks will be evident by the presence of gear oil
around the leak point. If leakage is not evident, the
condition is probably the result of an underfill condi­
tion.
If air powered lubrication equipment is used to fill
a transmission, be sure the equipment is properly
calibrated. Equipment out of calibration can lead to
an underfill condition.

CLUTCH
PROBLEMS
Worn, damaged, or misaligned clutch components
can cause difficult shifting, gear clash and noise.
A damaged pilot bearing will cause noise. If bear­
ing damage is severe, drive gear misalignment and
hard shifting can also occur.
A worn or damaged clutch disc, pressure plate, or
release bearing can cause hard shifting and gear clash.
Damaged or worn clutch hydraulic components, or
leaks in the fluid lines or cylinders will cause hard shifting and gear clash. Failure of one of the clutch
hydraulic cylinders can result in incomplete clutch release or engagement.
Verify that clutch components are all in good con­
dition before removing the transmission for repair.

Location
overdrive unit. The intermediate shaft is supported
by the overdrive piston retainer and piloted in the output shaft.
The overdrive piston and retainer are located at
the rear of the transmission case. The retainer serves as both the rear support and pressure chamber for
the overdrive piston. The intermediate shaft is splined to the overdrive direct clutch sliding hub,
planetary assembly and overrunning clutch.
The governor components and speedometer drive
are located on the output shaft in the overdrive unit.
Two bearings are used to support the output shaft. A longer park rod assembly is also required.
There are no rotating seal rings or pressurized oil
for the direct clutch. The clutch is applied by spring
pressure and released by movement of the overdrive clutch piston during the 3-4 upshift.
The governor is operated by fluid pressure supplied
through pressure tubes. The tubes are permanently attached to the governor support. Governor fluid
pressure is transmitted through the intermediate shaft to the tubes.
Governor pressure and overdrive clutch pressure
taps are provided in the transmission case for pres­ sure testing purposes.
The overdrive unit contains a direct clutch, an
overdrive clutch and an overrunning clutch. Fourth
gear range is provided by an additional planetary
gear set In the overdrive unit.
The direct clutch is applied by spring pressure. A
high pressure spring rated at approximately 830
pounds (5530 kPa) tension, holds the clutch in en­ gagement. The sun gear, direct clutch sliding hub
and drum are splined to the annulus gear for direct
drive. For coasting or reverse gear, power flows only
through the direct clutch.
A timing valve disengages the torque converter
clutch prior to a 4-3 downshift. The clutch solenoid, engagement valve, and timing valve are actuated in
fourth gear range. 3-4
Shift
Sequence

The overdrive clutch is applied in fourth gear only.
The direct clutch is applied in all ranges except
fourth gear.
Fourth gear overdrive range is electronically con­
trolled and hydraulically activated. Various sensor inputs are supplied to the powertrain control module
to operate the overdrive solenoid on the valve body. The solenoid contains a check ball that opens and closes a vent port in the 3-4 shift valve feed passage.
The overdrive solenoid (and check ball) are not en­
ergized in first, second, third or reverse gear. The
vent port remains open diverting line pressure from
the 2-3 shift valve away from the 3-4 shift valve.
The overdrive switch must be in the On position to
transmit signals to the solenoid. A 3-4 upshift occurs only when the overdrive solenoid is energized by an electrical signal from the powertrain control module. The solenoid is energized upon receiving a signal.
This causes the check ball to close the vent port. Closing the vent port allows line pressure from the
2-3 shift valve to act directly upon the 3-4 upshift
valve.
Line pressure acting on the 3-4 shift valve over­
comes valve spring tension moving the valve to the
upshift position. This action exposes the feed pas­ sages to the 3-4 timing valve, 3-4 shuttle valve, 3-4 accumulator and ultimately to the overdrive piston.
Line pressure through the timing and shuttle
valves move the overdrive piston into simultaneous
contact with the overdrive clutch and the direct clutch sliding hub.
The overdrive clutch is engaged and the direct
clutch is disengaged simultaneously to complete the 3-4 upshift.
The boost valve provides increased fluid apply pres­
sure to the overdrive clutch during the 3-4 upshift and during fourth gear operation. The amount of
boost is determined by throttle opening and line pressure.
The overdrive piston engages the overdrive clutch
by pressing directly against the clutch pressure

AUTOMATIC TRANSiISSIO|-32RH/8iRH/37RH/42RH/4iRH
21 - 83 plate. The overdrive clutch also disengages the direct
clutch during 3-4 upshifts. As fluid pressure extends
the overdrive piston, the piston contacts the direct clutch hub pressing it rearward. This action com­
presses the direct clutch spring relieving spring load on the clutch pack. The clutch is disengaged once
spring load is relieved.
The 3-4 accumulator cushions overdrive clutch en­
gagement to smooth the transition into fourth gear.
The accumulator is charged at the same time as ap­
ply pressure acts against the overdrive piston.
Converter clutch engagement in overdrive fourth
gear is controlled by sensor inputs to the powertrain
control module. In third gear above 25 mph, sensor inputs to the control module that determine clutch
engagement and shift timing are:
• coolant temperature (verifies minimum of 60° F)
• engine speed • vehicle speed
• throttle position
• manifold vacuum (MAP sensor)

Gearshift
Mechanism
The gear shift mechanism provides the same shift
positions used with 3-speed Chrysler transmissions
(P-R-N-D-2-1).

The shift into overdrive fourth gear range occurs
only after the transmission has completed the shift into D third gear range. No further movement of the
shift mechanism is required to complete the 3-4 shift.
The fourth gear upshift occurs automatically when
the overdrive control switch is in the ON position. Shift timing is determined by sensor inputs to the
engine controller.
Overdrive Control
Switch
The overdrive control switch is located in the in­
strument panel. In the On position, automatic shifts
into fourth gear overdrive will occur. In the Off posi­
tion, the switch overrides the engine controller pre­
venting a shift to overdrive fourth gear range.
The switch has an indicator light that illuminates
when overdrive is turned off. The switch also resets
when the ignition key is turned to the OFF position so that the automatic overdrive feature is restored.
The use of fault codes is employed to help diagnose
the electronic components that operate the overdrive
unit and converter clutch.

HYDRAULIC
CONTROLS
The 42REJ/46RH hydraulic control system provides
fully automatic operation. The system performs five
basic functions which are: pressure supply, pressure regulation, flow control, clutch/band application, and
lubrication. 42RH/46RH system operation is similar to that de­
scribed in the 32RH/36RH/37RH General Informa­ tion section. The main difference being fourth gear
operation which is covered here.

Pressure
Regulation
The pressure regulator valve maintains line pres­

sure.
The amount of pressure developed is controlled
by throttle pressure which is dependent on the de­ gree of throttle opening. The regulator valve is lo­
cated in the valve body.
The throttle valve determines line pressure and
shift speed. Governor pressure increases in propor­
tion to vehicle speed. The throttle valve controls up­ shift and downshift speeds by regulating pressure
according to throttle position.

Flow
Control And Lubrication The manual valve is operated by the gearshift link­
age and provides the operating range selected by the
driver.
The 1-2 shift valve provides 1-2 or 2-1 shifts and
the 2-3 shift valve provides 2-3 or 3-2 shifts.
The kickdown valve provides forced 3-2 or 3-1
downshifts depending on vehicle speed. Downshifts
occur when the throttle is opened beyond downshift
detent position which is just before wide open throt­

tle.

The 2-3 valve throttle pressure plug provides 3-2
downshifts at varying throttle openings depending on
vehicle speed.
The 1-2 shift control valve transmits 1-2 shift pres­
sure to the accumulator piston. This controls kick-
down band capacity on 1-2 upshifts and 3-2 downshifts.
The 3-4 shift valve, shuttle valve, timing valve and
accumulator are only actuated when the overdrive
solenoid is energized.
The solenoid contains a check ball that controls a
vent port to the 3-4 valve. The check ball either di­
verts line pressure away from or directly to, the 3-4 shift valve. Energizing the solenoid causes the check
ball to close the vent port allowing line pressure to act upon the 3-4 upshift valve.
The limit valve determines maximum speed at
which a 3-2 part throttle kickdown can be made. Some transmissions do not have the limit valve and
maximum speed for a 3-2 kickdown is at the detent
position.
The 2-3 shuttle valve has two functions. First is
fast front band release and smooth engagement dur­ ing lift-foot 2-3 upshifts. The second is to regulate
front clutch and band application during 3-2 down­
shifts.
The 3-4 shuttle valve uses a combination of throt­
tle and governor pressure to control the rate of over­
drive piston apply and release. This is done to
maintain shift quality at varying throttle openings.
