1, The hydraulic pressure is applied to the forward clutch and the start clutch, and the sun gear drives the torward
clutch.
2. The torward clutch drives the drive pulleV shaft. which drives the driven pulley shaft linked by the steel belt.
3, The driven pulley shaft drives the secondary drive gear, via the start clutch.
4. Power is transmitted to the secondary driven gear, which drives the final driven gear.
NOTE: The working hydraulic pressure on the movable face of each shaft depends on the throttle opening position.

1. The hydraulic pressure is applied to the reverse brake and the start clutch. The sun gear drives the pinion gears, and
the pinion gears revolve around the sun gear. The carrier assembly rotates in the opposite direction from the rotation
direction of the sun gear.
The carrier assembly drives the drive pulley shaft via the forward clutch drum, and the drive pulley shaft drives the
driven pulley shaft linked by the steel belt.
The driven pulley shaft drives the secondary drive gear via the start clutch.
Power is transmitted to the secondary driven gear, which drives the final driven gear.

Electronic Gontrol System ('99 - 00 Modelsl
The electronic controt system conststs of a Powertrain control Module (PCM). sensors, three linear solenoids and an
inhibitor solenoid. shifting is electronically controlled under all conditions A Grade Logic control system to control shift-
ing in E position while the vehicle is ascending or descending a slope'
fn"pCVirlocatedbelowthedashboard,underthekickpanelonthepassenger'sside'
The pCM controls the transmassion to reduce engine speed and retain the engine's cooling efficiency when the vehicle is
driven with full throftle acceleration
lf the vehicle is continuously driven at lull throttle acceleration, the PCM regulates the pulley hydraulic pressure to
increase the pulley ratio which. as the result, reduces the engine speed and retains the designed cooling efficiency After
the vehicle has been driven at a lower engine speed for a while, the PCM increases the pulley ratio to the original ratio'
i"i ".nl",rr starting in the E position, the PcM cuts off the ,Vc clutch (if the A/c is on) and increases the engine speed to
900 rpm when the transmission is shifted to the E position'
The start clutch functions to make smooth starting possible. To let the start clutch function properly, the PcM regulates
the start clutch hydraulic pressure based on the engine's negative pressure memorized in the E position'

Description
Electronic Control System ('99 - 00 Modelsl (cont'dl
Grade Logic Control System
How it works:
The PcM compares actual driving conditions with memorized driving conditions. based on the input from the vehiclespeed sensor, the throttle position sensor, the manifold absolute pressure sensor, the engine coolant temperature sensor,the brake switch signal, and the shift lever position signal, to control shifting while the vehicle is ascending or descendinga slope.
Ascending Control
When the PCM determines that the vehicle is climbing a hill in E position, the system selects the most suitable shiftschedule (pulley ratio) according to the magnitude of a gradient. so the vehicle can run smooth and have more powerwhen needed. There are three ascending modes with different shift schedules according to the magnitude ot a gradient inthe PCM.
Descending Control
when the PCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in E position. the system selects the most suitable shiftschedule (pulley ratio) according to the magnitude of a gradient. This, in combinstion with engine braking, achievessmooth driving when the vehicle is descending, There are three descending modes with different shift schedules accord-ing to the magnitude of a gradient in the PCM.

Reverse Inhibitor Conirol
lf the E position is selected while the veiicle is moving forward at speeds over 6 mph (10 km/h), the inhibitor solenoiddoesn't turn off by means of the TcM or PCM Reverse inhibitor pressure (Rl) is not applied to the reverse inhibitor valveas the reverse inhibitor solenoid turns on. The reverse inhibitor valve is kept on the right side, and covers the pon ro sropreverse brake pressure {RVS} to the reverse brake from the manual valve. Reverse brike pressure (RVs) i; not appried tothe reverse brake, and power is not transmitted to the reverse direction.
