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.

Hydraulic Flow (cont'dl
lll Position
As the engine turns, the ATF pump starts to operate. Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is drawn from (99) and dis-charged into (1). Then, ATF flowing from the ATF pump becomes line pressure ('l). Line pressure (1) js regulated by theregulator valve. Torque converter inlet pressure {92) enters (94) of the torque conveTter through the lock-up shift valve anddischarges into (90) The torque converter check valve prevents torque converter pressure from rising. Under this condi-tion, hydraulic pressure is not applied to the clutches.

Line pressure {1) flows to the manual valve and the modulator valve, Line pressure (1) changes to line pressure (4) and
1st-hold clutch pressure at the manual valve, and changes to modulator pressure at the modulator valve Modulator pres-
sure {6) flows to the left ends of the 1-2 shift valve and 3-4 shift valve because shift control solenoid valve A is turned oFF
by the PcM. The 1-2 shift valve and the 3-4 shift valve are moved to the right side. Line pressure (4) becomes 1st clutch
pressure (10) at the 1-2 shift valve. 1st clutch pressure (10) is applied to the 1st clutch, and the 1st clutch is engaged lst-
hold clutch pressure (18) flows to the lst-hol; clutch via the 3-4 shift valve and the 1-2 shift valve Power is transmitted
only during deceleration through the 1st-hold clutch.

l?J Position
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. Line pressure (5) fromthe 1-2 shift valve changes to 2nd clutch pressure (20) at the 2-3 shift valve. The 2nd clutch pressure (20) is applied to the2nd clutch, and the 2nd clutch is engaged, Line pressure (4) passes through the 1-2 shift valve and the orifice, and changesto lst clutch pressure. The 1st clutch pressure {10) also flows to the 1st clutch. However, no power is transmitted becauseof the one-way clutch.

1. lst Gear
Fluid flow through the torque converter circuit is the same as in E] position. Line pressure flows to the manual valve
and the modulator valve. Line pressure changes to modulator pressure (6) at the modulator valve and to line pressure
{4) at the manual valve. Modulator pressure (6) flows to the left end of the 1-2 shift valve and the 3-4 shift valve
because shift control solenoid valve A is turned oFF and B is turned oN by the PcM. The 1-2 shift valve is moved to
the right side. Line pressure {4) changes to 'lst clutch pressure (10} at the 1-2 shift valve and the orifice The 1st clutch
pressure (10) is applied to the 1st clutch and the 1st accumulator; the vehicle will move as the engine power is trans-
mitted.

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.

3. 3rd Gear
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.
