Description
Lock-up System (cont'd)
Deceleration Lock-up
Torque Converter Clutch (Lock-up Control) Solenoid Valve A: ON Torque Converter Clutch (Lock-up Control) Solenoid
Valve B: Duty Operation
The PCM switches solenoid valve B on and off rapidly under certain conditions. The slight lock-up and half lock-up regions
are maintained so as to lock the torque converter properly.
NOTE: When used, "left" or "right" indicates direction on the hydraulic circuit.ProCarManuals.com

Park Mechanism
The park mechanism locks the transmission by engaging the park pawl with the park gear which is splined to the counter-
shaft.
Shifting to [3 position causes the park cone (installed at the end of the park rod) to press the park pawl onto the park gear.
Even if the end of the park pawl rides on top of the park gear teeth, slight movement of the countershaft will cause the
park pawl and the park gear to mesh with each other completely because the park cone receives tension from the park rod
spring. The park pawl receives the tension (which acts to separate the park pawl from the park gear) from the park pawl
spring.
