1998 HONDA CIVIC cool

GRADE LOGIC CONTROL SYSTEM
How it works:
The pCM compares actual driving conditions with driving conditions memorized in the PCM, based on the input from the
vehicle speed sensor, the throttle position sensor, the barometoric pressure sensor, the engine coolant temperature sensor,
the brake switch signal, and the shift lever position signal, to control shifting while a vehicle is ascending or descending a
slope, or reducing speed.

Lock-up System (cont'd)
TOROUE CONVERTER
In B.rl position, in 3rd and 4th, and lDl_- position in 3rd.pressurized fluid is drajned from the back of the torqueconverter through a fluid passage. causing the lock-uppiston to be held against the torque convener cover. Asthis takes place, the mainshaft rotates at the same speedas the engine crankshaft, Together with the hydrauliccontrol, the PCM optimized the timing of the lock_upsystem. Under certain conditions, the lock_up clutch isapplied during deceleration, in 3rd and 4th gear.
The lock-up system controls the range of lock_up accord_ing to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B. and thelinear solenoid. When lock-up control solenoid valves Aand B activate, modulator pressure changes. Lock_upcontrol solenoid valves A and B and the linear solenoidare mounted on the outside of the torque converterhousing. and are controlled by the pclvl.

. Lock-up Control Solenoid Valve A: OFF

. Linear Solenoid Pressure: High
The pressurized fluid regulated by the modulator works
on both ends of the lock-up shift valve. Under this condi-
tion, the pressures working on both ends of the lock-up
shift valve are equal, the lock-up shift valve is moved to
the right side by the tension of the valve spring alone.
The fluid from the ATF pump will flow through the left
side of the lock-up clutch to the torque convener; that is,
the lock-up clutch is in OFF condition.

Half Lock-up
. Lock-up Control Solenoid Valve A: ONLock-up Control Solenoid Valve 8: Duty Operation
OFF - ONLinear Solenoid Pressure: Low
The PCM switches the solenoid valve A on to release themodulator pressure in the left cavity of the lock_up shiftvalve. The modulator pressure in the right cavity of thelock-up shift valve overcomes the spring force; thus thelock-up shift valve is moved to the left side.The line pressure is then separated into the two pas-sages to the torque converter:
Torque Converter Inner pressure: enters into rightsade to engage lock-up clutch
Torque Converter Back pressure: enters into left sideto diseogage lock-up clutchThe back pressure (F2) is regulated by the lock-up con-trol valve, whereas the position of the lock-up timingvalve is determined by the linear solenoid Dressure andtension of the valve spring. Also the position of the lock_up control valve is determined by the back pressure ofthe lock-up control valve, torque converter pressure reg_ulated by the torque converter check valve, and modula_tor pressure determined by the lock-up control solenoidvalve B. The PCM switches the lock-up control solenoidvalve B on and off rapidly {duty operation} under certainconditions to regulate the back pressure (F2) to lock thetorque convener properly.

o Linear Solenoid Pressure: High
When the vehicle speed further increases. the linear
solenoid pressure is increased to high in accordance
with the linear solenoid controlled bv the PCM.
The lock-up timing valve overcomes the spring force
and moves to the left side. Also, this valve closes the
fluid port leading to the left side of the lock-up control
Under this condition. the modulator pressure in the left
side of the lock-up control valve had already been
released by the lock-up control solenoid valve B; the
lock-up control valve js moved to the left side. As this
takes place, the torque converter back pressure is
released fully. causing the lock-up clutch to be engaged
fully.
