Operation
Upshift clutch engagement pressure feedback
•Clutch pressure (2) is learned so that gear shift time (1) becomes a predetermined target value, and thus
changes in performance and changes in the transaxle over time are minimized based on past gear shift results.
Upshift timing feedback (release-side clutch pressure)
•Clutch pressure release timing on the release side (2) is learned so that the change in engine speed (1) is
optimized, and thus clutch pressures on the engagement and release sides are optimized.
End Of SieN-D SELECT CONTROL DESCRIPTIONA6E571418901207•When the selector lever is switched from the P or N position to the driving ranges, or vice versa, the engine
speed change is minimized by regulating fuel injection volume in order to improve select feel.
•Range signals are output to the PCM in the following instances:
When the selector lever is switched from the P or N position to the driving ranges, or vice versa, and the
specified time has elapsed.
•The PCM regulates fuel injection volume based on inhibitor signals prevent change in engine speed.

Features
•The TCM selects the TCC schedule according to the gear selected by the transaxle. 50 Hz (20 ms cycle) on/off
signals are relayed from the TCC schedule and speed sensor and throttle opening angle to the duty cycle TCC

Determination of Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Cancellation
The TCC control is canceled when any of the following condition are met:
•Engine coolant temperature is low.
•ATF temperature is low.
•Brake switch is on (when depressing the brake pedal).
•Accelerator depressing speed and accelerator opening angle are above the set value.
•Engine speed signal is below the set value.
•Failure is in the TCC control system detected by diagnosis function.

When climbing hill
•When the hill is steeper than a certain grade, unnecessary up shift is prevented by holding an appropriate gear.

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.
DTC Table
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.

Evaluation of line pressure test
Stall Speed Test
1. Perform mechanical system test preparation. (See K2–72 Mechanical System Test Preparation.)
2. Connect a tachometer.
3. Start the engine.
4. Shift the selector lever to D range.
Caution
•Do not maintain WOT in any gear range for more than 5 seconds or transaxle damage will occur.
•If engine speed recorded by the tachometer exceeds maximum specified rpm, release the
accelerator pedal immediately. Clutch or band slippage is indicator.
5. Firmly depress the brake pedal with the left foot, and gently depress the accelerator pedal to the floor (WOT)
with the right.
6. When the engine speed no longer increases, quickly read the engine speed and release the accelerator pedal.
7. Shift the selector the to N position and let the engine idle for 1 minute or more to cool the ATF.
8. Perform stall tests for the remaining ranges and position in the same manner.
