1999 HONDA CR-V pcm

Ascending Control {37 Modol}
When the PCM determines that the vehicle is climbing a hill in E] and E positions, the system extends the engagement
area of 2nd g€ar and 3rd gear to prevent the transmission from frequently shifting between 2nd and 3rd gears, and
between 3rd and 4th gears, so the vehicle can run smooth and have more power when needed.
NOTE:
. Shift schedules stored in ths PCM between 2nd and 3rd gears, and between 3rd and 4th gears. enable the PCM's fuzzy
logic to automatically select the most suitable gear according to the magnitude of 8 gradient.
t Fuzzy logic is a form of artificial intslligence that lets computers respond to changing conditions much like a human
mind would.

When the PCM determines that the vohicle is climbing a hill in E] and E positions ('98 model), and in E] position ('99 -
00 models), the system extends the engagement srea of 2nd gear and 3rd gear to prevent the transmission from frequent-
ly shifting between 2nd and 3rd gears, and between 3rd and 4th gears, so the vehicle can run smooth and have more
power when needed.
NOTE: Shift schedulss stored in the PCM between 2nd and 3rd gears, and between 3rd and 4th gears, enable to selsct the
most suitable gear according to th6 magnitude of a gradi€nt.

Descending Control
When the PCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in E and @ positions ('97 - 98 models). and in @ posi-
tion {'99 - 00 models), the shitt-up speed from 3rd to 4th gear and from 2nd to 3rd (when the throttle is closed) becomes
faster than the set speed for flat road driving to widen the 3rd gear and 2nd gear driving areas. This, in combination with
engine braking from the deceleration lock-up, achieves smooth driving when the vehicle is descending. There are three
descending modes with different 3rd gear driving areas and 2nd gear driving areas according to the magnitude of a gradi-
ent stored in the PCM. When the vehicle is in 4th gear, and you are decelerating when you are applying the brakes on a
steep hill, the transmission will downshift to 3rd gear, When you accelerate, the transmission will then return to higher
gear.

Deceleration Control
When the vehicle goes around a corner, and needs to decelerate first and then accelerate, the PCM sets the data for deceleration
control to reduce the number of times the transmission shifts. When the vehicle is decelerating from speeds above 27 mph(4i| km,ih), the PCM shifts the transmission from 4th to 2nd earlier than normal to cope with upcoming acceleration,

Line pressure {1) flows to the manual valve and the modulator valve. Line pressure (1} changes to line pressure (4) at themanual valve, and changes to modulator pressure at the modulator valve. But modulator pressure {6} does not flow toeach shift valve because shift control solenoid valves A and B are turned ON by the PCM. Line pressure (4) passes throughthe CPB valve and the CPC valve, and changes to line pressure (5), then flows to the 'l-2 shift valve.

2nd Gsar
As the speed of the vehicle reaches the prescribed value. shift control solenoid valve A is turned ON by the pCM.Modulator pressure (6A) in the left end of the 1-2 shift valve is released by turning shift control solenoid valve A ON.The 1-2 shift valve is moved to the left side and uncovers the port to allow line pressure (5) to the 2-3 shift vatve. Linepressure (5) changes to 2nd clutch pressure (20) at the 2-3 shift valve, The 2nd clutch pressure {20) is appli€d to the2nd clutch. and the 2nd clutch is engaged.
Fluid flows by way of:- Line Pressure (4) + CPB Valve - Line Pressure (5) * 1-2 Shift Valve - Line pressure (S) * 2-3 Shift Valve- 2nd Clutch Pressure (20) - 2nd Clutch
The hydraulic pressure also flows to the lst clutch. However, no power is transmitted because of the one-wav ctutch.
