Emergency Running (elect ronic limp-home mode)
The TCM constantly monitors the transmissi on for faults. In the event of a problem the TCM will adopt the limp-home mode, in which the gear currently held remains engaged, until P is selected. The modulati ng and shift pressures will increase to
maximum and converter lock-up will be inhibited.
Following the selection of P , the only ratios available will be 2 (irrespective of forward ratio manual selection) and R .
With the vehicle at rest, the procedure to manually select is as follows:
1. 1. Select P .

Transmission/Transaxle Cooling - 4.0L NA V8 - AJ27/3.2L NA V8 - AJ26 -
Transmission Cooling
Description and Operation
The transmission fluid cooling system maintains fluid temperature within specified limits.
Parts List
Component Descriptions
The transmission fluid pipes:
Transfer fluid from the transmission to the cooler under the action of the hydraulic system pump. Return the cooled fluid from th e cooler to the transmission.
The transmission fluid cooler:
Is a plate type made from aluminum. Is mounted in the engi ne cooling radiator right-hand end tank.
Overheating Protection
If the engine coolant or transm ission fluid temperatures exceed their predefined limits, th e transmission control module locks
the torque converter clutch. By reducing slip, this minimises th e amount of heat transferred to the engine cooling system from
the transmission fluid.

Transmission/Transaxle Cooling - 4.0L SC V8 - AJ26 - Transmission
Cooling
Description and Operation
The transmission fluid cooling system maintains the fluid temperature within specified limits. The cooling element is located
in the engine cooling radiator LH end tank.
Fluid is circulated, under pressure, by the transmission pump to the cooler.
General Layout
Overheating Protection
If the engine coolant or transmission fluid temperatures exceed their predefined limits, the transmission control module
locks the torque converter clutch . By reducing slip, this minimises the amount of heat transferred to the engine cooling
system from the transmission fluid.
