A. Front Planetary Gear
B. Rear Planetary Gear
Reverse Gear
1. The input shaft rotates clockwise.
The reverse clutch (C3) operates. Connect the input shaft to the rear planetary sun gear.
2. The planetary long pinion rotates itself counterclockwise.
3. The 1st and reverse brake (3) operates. Lock rotates the planetary carrier.
4. The ring gear rotates counterclockwise.
5. The counter drive gear rotates counterclockwise for the ring gear and one.
6. The counter driven gear rotates clockwise.
7. The differential gear drive pinion rotates clockwise for the counter driven gear and one.
8. The differential gear rotates counterclockwise.
Engine Brake
The driving force is connected to the input shaft directory without the 1-way clutch. Therefore the engine brake
operates.
TRANSMISSION GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The new automatic transmission AISIN (81-40LE) is an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic
transmission with lock-up mechanism.
The transmission is mainly composed of the torque converter with lock up clutch, newly developed 4-speed
planetary gear unit, the hydraulic control system and the electric control system.
Hydraulic Control System
Based on the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the TCM sends signals to the solenoid and the
hydraulic control system governs the hydraulic pressure acting on the torque converter, planetary gear, clutches,
and brakes in accordance with the vehicle driving conditions.
Function of Components
NOTE: Lack of basic knowledge of this powertrain when performing diagnostic
procedures could result in incorrect diagnostic performance or damage to
powertrain components. Do not attempt to diagnose a powertrain problem
without this basic knowledge.
