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.

ELECTRONIC COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Transmission Control Module (TCM)
The transmission control module (TCM) primarily controls shift points and lockup engagement. It is located on
the driver side under the instrument panel.
The transmission is controlled by an electronic shift system. The TCM processes input signals. From the
information received, the TCM controls the transmission hydraulic system.
The electronic shift system consists of the following components.
TCM
Shift solenoids (SS1 and SS2)
Pressure control solenoid (PCS)
Lockup solenoid
Input shaft speed (ISS) sensor
Output shaft speed (OSS) sensor
Transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor
Park/neutral position (PNP) switch
Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch
The PNP switch transmits the information which range includes the shift lever of the automatic transmission
(A/T) to the starter and TCM.
It is possible for the PNP switch to start an engine in only park (P) and neutral (N) prevention of reckless
driving
The PNP switch makes the backup lamp turn on when reversing.
It is used for PNP switch to shift control.
The PNP switch transmits the information by combination of starter and reverse circuit to the vehicle side
directl
y without TCM.
