Description
Hydraulic Control
The hydraulic control system is controlled by the ATF pump, valves, accumulators, and electronically controlled solenoids.
The ATF pump is driven by splines on the end of the torque converter which is aftached to the engine. Fluid from the ATF
pump flows through the regulator valve to maintain specified pressure, through the main valve body, to the manual valve,
directing pressure to each clutch. The valve body includes the main valve body, the regulator valve body, the lock-up
valve body, the secondary valve body, the servo body, the linear solenoid, the shift control solenoid valve Ay'B assembly,
and the lock-up control solenoid valve A/B assembly. The shift control solenoid valve A,/B assembly and the linear
solenoid are bolted on the outside of the transmission housing. The lock-up control solenoid valve A,/B assembly is bolted
on the outside of the torque converter housing.

Main Valve Sody
The main valve body houses the manual valve, the 1-2 shift valve. the 2nd orifice control valve. the CPB valve, the modu-
lator valve. the servo control valve. and the relief valve. The primary functions of the main valve body are to switch fluid
pressure on and off, and to control the hydraulic pressure going to the hydraulic control system.

Regulator Valve
The regulator valve maintains constant hydraulic pressure from the ATF pump to the hydraullc control system, while also
furnishing fluid to the lubricating system and torque converter. Fluid from the ATF pump flows through B and B'. Fluid
entering from B flows through the valve orifice to the A cavity. This pressure of the A cavity pushes the regulator valve to
the right side. and this movement of the regulator valve uncovers the fluid port to the torque converter and the relief
valve. The fluid flows out to the torque converter and the relief valve, and the regulator valve moves to the left side.
According to the level of the hydraulic pressure through B, the position of the regulator valve changes and the amount of
fluid from B,through the torque converter also changes. This operation is continued, maintaining the line pressure.
NOTE; When used, "|eft" or "right" indicates direction on the illustration below.

STATOR SHAFT ABM
Stator Reaction Hydraulic Pressurs Control
Increases in hydraulic pressure according to torque are performed by the regulator valve using stator torque reaction. The
stator shaft is splined to the stator in the torque converter, and its arm end contacts the regulator spring cap When the
vehicle is accelerating or climbing (Torque Converter Range), stator torque reaction acts on the stator shaft, and the stator
arm pushes the regulator spring cap in the direction of the arrow in proportion to the reaction. The stator reaction spring
compresses, and the regulator valve moves to increase the line pressure. Line pressure reaches its maximum when the
stator torque reaction reaches its maximum.

As the speed of the vehicle reaches the prescribed value. shift control solenoid valve B is turned OFF by the PCM.
Shift control solenoid valve A remains ON. Modulator pressure (6) flows to the right end of the 1-2 shift valve and the
left end of the 2-3 shift valve. The 2-3 shift valve is moved to the right side by modulator pressure (68) The 2-3 shift
valve covers the port to stop line prsssure (5) to the 2nd clutch. and uncovers the 3-4 shift valve as the 2-3 shift valve
is moved to the right side, Line pressure (5) becomes 3rd clutch pressure (30) at the 3-4 shift valve. The 3rd clutch
pressure (30) is applied to the 3rd clutch, and the 3rd clutch is engaged.
Fluid flows by way of:- Line pressure (4) - CPB Valve - Line Pressure (5) * 1-2 Shift Vaiv€ - Line Pressure (5) * 2-3 Shift Valve
- Line Pressure (5) * 3-4 Shift Valve - 3rd Clutch Pressure (30) * 3rd Clutch
The hvdraulic Dressure also flows to the 1st clutch. However, no power is trsnsmitted because of the one-way clutch.

As the speed of the vehicle reaches the prescribed value. shift control solenoid valve A is turned OFF by the pCM,
Shift control solenoid valve B remains OFF. Modulator pressure (6) flows to the left end of the 1-2 shift valve and theleft end of the 3-4 shift valve. Modulator pressure (64) in the left end of the 1-2 shift valve equals modulator pressure(68) in the right end of the 1-2 shift valve. The 1-2 shift valve remains at left side by the tension of the valve spring.The 3-4 shift valve is moved to the right side by modulator pressure (6A). The 3-4 shift valve covers the pon to the 3rdclutch and uncovers the port to the 4th clutch as this valve is moved to the right side, The 4th clutch pressure (41)from the 3-4 shift valve becomes 4th clutch pressure (40) at the manual valve. The 4th clutch pressure (40) is appliedto the 4th clutch, and the 4th clutch is engaged.
Fluid flows by way of:- Line pressure (4) + CPB Valve - Line Pressure (5) + l-2 Shift Valve - Line Pressure {5) * 2-3 Shift Valve- Line Pressure (5) + 3-4 Shift Valve - 4th Clutch Pressure (41) + Manual Valve - 4th Clutch Pressure (40)+ 4th Clutch
The hydraulic pressure also flows to the lst clutch. However, no power is transmitted because of the one-wav clutch.
NOTE:

Lock-up System
TOROUE CONVERTER
In E position ('97 - 98 models) and in E position ('99 -
OO models) (3rd and 4th), and E position ('97 - 98 mod-
els) and in E position with Over-Drive (O/D) is OFF (by
pressing the O/D switch) ('99 - 00 models) (3rd), pressur-
ized fluid is drained from the back of the torque convert-
er through a fluid passage, causing the lock-up piston to
be held against the torque converter cover, As this takes
Dlace, the mainshaft rotates at the same speed as th8
engine crankshaft. Together with the hydraulic control,
the PCM optimizes the timing of the lock-up system.
Under certain condltions. the lock-up clutch is appli€d
during deceleration, in 3rd and 4th gear.
The lock-up system controls the range of lock-up sccord-
ing to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B, and ths
linear solenoid. When lock-up control solenoid valves A
and B activate. modulator pressure changes. Lock-up
control solenoid valves A and B are mounted on the out-
side of the torque converter housing, and the linear
solenoid is mounted on the transmission housing. They
are controlled bv the PCM.
The table below shows the lock-up conditions for lock-up
control solenoid valves and linear solenoid pressure.
