Electronic Control Item and Control
Component Description (Electronic Control)
Control item Contents
Shift control•Detects engine load condition and vehicle speed. Shifts to the best gear
position according to the programmed automatic shift diagram.
Line pressure control•Generates line pressure matching the engine load condition and driving
conditions. Optimizes line pressure for each shift. When the ATF
temperature is low, automatically optimizes line pressure for quick clutch
engagement.
Revers inhibition control•When the shift lever is shifted to R position while the vehicle is running
forward at approx. 30 km/h{19 mph} or more, the TCM turns the neutral
shift solenoid valve on and drains the low and reverse brake hydraulic
pressure. Due to this, the transaxle shifts to neutral.
Shift transient control•Adjusts transient hydraulic pressure according to engine load and
vehicle driving conditions when shifting using the pressure control
solenoid, 2-4 brake solenoid valve, the high clutch solenoid valve, and
each accumulator control valve.
•Temporarily lowers engine torque during shift (up and down) to improve
shift feel
•The lock timing for the reduction brake band is controlled by the control
of the reduction timing solenoid valve ON/OFF timing.
•The lock timing for the clutch brake is controlled by the control of shift
solenoid A, B, and C ON/OFF timing.
Feedback control•Corrects clutch engagement pressure and timing on drain side to
compensate for changes in engine performance and changes in
transaxle
TCC control•Controls TCC according to the programmed TCC points
N-D select control•When a driving range is selected from P/N, the fuel injection amount is
controlled to prevent fluctuation in engine speed.
Slope mode control•Changes the shift point to prevent frequent shifting up/down when
climbing hills
OBD system•Detects and/or memorizes failure of input/output part and transaxle
condition
Part name Function
Input system TR switch•Detects selector lever ranges/positions
Input/turbine speed sensor•Detects reverse clutch drum revolution speed
Intermediate sensor•Detects output gear revolution speed
Vehicle speedometer sensor•Detects parking gear revolution speed

Brake switch•Detects the brake pedal depressed
Cruise control module (in cruise actuator)•When the cruise control is in use, the signal detects when the
difference between the target speed and actual speed
exceeds specification
M range switch•Detects selector lever shifted M range
Up switch•Detects up shift in M range
Down switch•Detects down shift in M range
CAN signal Throttle position signal•Input throttle opening angle from PCM
Engine torque signal

Line Pressure Control at Extremely Low Temperatures
•When the ATF temperature is approximately –30 °C {–22 °F} or below, the period when the pressure control
solenoid is ON (duty ratio) is set at 3 % to maintain line pressure at maximum regardless of the throttle opening
angle. Thus delay in clutch or brake operation due to high viscosity of ATF is prevented when the ATF
temperature is extremely low.
Pressure Control Solenoid Stop Control
•When the vehicle is stopped and the accelerator pedal is released, the operation (duty ratio) of the pressure
control solenoid is set at 3 %, regardless of the driving range. Due to this, AT noise is reduced when the vehicle
is stopped.
End Of Sie
FEEDBACK CONTROL DESCRIPTIONA6E571418901206Outline
Features
•During shift up with the accelerator pedal depressed, feedback control regulates the clutch pressure on the
engagement and release sides, according to the throttle opening angle and vehicle speed. It also uses past
gearshifts to optimize clutch pressure.
Note
•If the battery terminal is disconnected, feedback memory in the TCM will be erased, and thus gearshift
shock may increase. The shock, however, will decrease gradually as the vehicle is driven.

Memory Function
•The memory function stores failure information detected in the failure detection function. Once failure
information is stored, the memory will not be cleared even when the ignition switch is turned off (LOCK
position) or the malfunction is repaired.
•The stored memory (failure information) can be cleared by using the WDS or disconnecting the negative
battery cable.
Failure Indication Function
•The failure indication function illuminates the AT warning lights when the failure detection function determines
there is a malfunction.

X : Available
CCM:Continuous monitor
Fail-safe Function
•In the fail-safe function, minimum vehicle drivability is obtained by changing the signals that are determined as
malfunctions by the failure detection function to the preset values, and limiting the TCM control.
