Shift Elements: Multi–disc Clutches and
Brakes
The purpose of the shift elements is to perform shifts un-
der load without the tractive flow being interrupted.
The shift elements consist of the following.
1. Snap Ring
2. Steel Disc
3. Lined Disc
4. Cup Spring
5. Baffle Plate
6. Disc Carrier
7. Input Shaft
8. Oil Supply to Dynamic Pressure Equalizer
9. Oil Supply to Clutch
10. Cylinder
11. Piston
12. Spring Disc
The shift elements are engaged hydraulically. The pres-
surized oil reaches the space between the cylinder and
piston, as a result the discs are compressed. The clutch/
brake is engaged when the oil pressure drops, the cup
spring acting on the piston presses the piston back into its
initial position. The clutch/brake is now released again.
Depending on the gear, the multi–disc clutches B and E
supply the engine torque to the planetary gear train, with
multi–disc brakes C, D and F directing the torque into the
housing.The dynamic pressure at clutches B and E is equal : i.e.
the dynamic pressure in front of and behind the piston is
equal. This equalizing effect is achieved in the following
way.
The space between the baffle plate and piston is filled with
unpressurized oil. A dynamic pressure dependent on the
engine speed builds up. The space between pressure also
builds up. However, there is simultaneously a static pres-
sure, which causes the clutch to engage. If the static pres-
sure is relieved, the cup spring is able to force the piston
back into its original position.
The advantages of this dynamic pressure equalization
are:
S Reliable clutch opening in all speed ranges
S Smoother shifts.
Parking Lock
The parking lock is actuated via the selector lever when in
position P. It protects the vehicle mechanically against roll-
ing away.
The stop plate is actuated by the selector shaft, which is
permanently connected to the selector lever via a pull
cable. The parking lock pawl on the parking lock gear is
welded onto the lateral shaft of the transaxle and this pre-
vents the drive wheels from turning.
This blocks the driven wheels.

ELECTRONICAL COMPONENTS
Selector Lever/Program Switch
The driver engages the travel position via the selector le-
ver:
P : Park Position
R : Reverse
N : Neutral
D : Forward Speeds
Park/Neutral Position Switch
The Park/Neutral Position Switch is located on the selec-
tor shaft and informs the TCM of the current selector lever
position P–R–N–D–3–2–1.
The selector lever position is transmitted to the TCM in en-
coded form along 4 lines. The encoding is such that mal-
functions in the connecting lead are identified.
The Park/Neutral Position Switch is located on the selec-
tor shaft, which is connected to the selector lever via a pull
cable. In addition, the Park/Neutral Position Switch con-
trols the starter interlock, the reversing light and the selec-
tor lever position indicator on the instrument panel.

Automatic Transaxle Output Speed Sensor
(A/T OSS)
The vehicle A/T OSS is a magnetic inductive pickup that
relays information relative to vehicle speed to the TCM.
Vehicle speed information is used by the TCM to control
shift timing, line pressure, and TCC (lock–up clutch) apply
and release.
The output speed sensor mounts in the case at the speed
sensor rotor, which is pressed onto the spur gear. An air
gap of 0.1mm~1.3mm(0.004~0.05in) is maintained be-
tween the sensor and the teeth on the spur gear teeth. The
sensor consists of a permanent magnet surrounded by a
coil of wire.
As the differential rotates, an AC signal is generated by the
output speed sensor (OSS).
Automatic Transaxle Input Speed Sensor
(A/T ISS)
The A/T ISS is a magnetic inductive pickup that relays in-
formation relative to transaxle input speed to the TCM.
The TCM uses transaxle input speed information to con-
trol line pressure, TCC apply and release and transaxle
shift patterns. This information is also uses to calculate the
appropriate operating gear ratios and TCC slippage.
The input speed sensor mounts onto piston B that is inside
of valve body.
An air gap of 1.8~2.2mm(0.07~0.086inch) is maintained
between the sensor and the piston B.
The sensor consists of a permanent magnet surrounded
by a coil of wire. As the piston B is driven by the turbine
shaft, an AC signal induced in the input speed sensor.
Higher vehicle speeds induce a higher frequency and volt-
age measurement at the sensor.
Sensor resistance should measure between 825~835
ohms at 20°C (68°F). Sensor can measure from
1,000~8,000HZ.

Shift Solenoid Valve: Solenoid 1,2
The shift solenoids are two identical, normally open elec-
tronic exhaust work that control upshifts and downshifts in
all forward gear ranges. These shift solenoids valves to-
gether in a combination of ON and OFF sequences to con-
trol the line pressure and shift mechanisms (clutches,
brakes).
Solenoid 1 controls the high or low of the line pressure
(flow to each clutch valve) by the operation type (ON/
OFF), i.e. solenoid 1is ON, line pressure will be low
(87~116 psi (6~8bar)), solenoid 1 is OFF, line pressure will
be high (232~261 psi (16~18bar)).
Solenoid 2 controls the oil flow to clutch valve E or lockup
clutch valve by the ON/OFF signal.
The TCM monitors numerous inputs to determine the ap-
propriate solenoid state combination and transaxle gear
for the vehicle operating conditions.

Pressure Control Solenoid Valve (EDS
VALVE 3,4,5,6)
The pressure control valve (EDS valve 3,4,5,6) is a preci-
sion electronic pressure regulator that controls the opera-
tion of the clutches, brakes and the lock–up clutch.
The valve reduces the system pressure with which the
downstream solenoid valves and electrical pressure regu-
lating valves are supplied. It is possible to use smaller so-
lenoid valves as a result. The EDS require a constant input
pressure.

Transaxle Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The TFT sensor is a positive temperature coefficient
thermistor (temperature sensitive resistor) that provides
information to the TCM regarding transaxle fluid tempera-
ture. The temperature sensor is located in valve body. Cal-
culated temperature is a factor used to determine the shift
time and shift delay time.
The internal electrical resistance of the sensor varies in
relation to the operating temperature of the transaxle fluid
(see chart).
The TCM sends a 5 volt–reference signal to the tempera-
ture sensor and measures the voltage rise in the electrical
circuit. A higher fluid temperature creates a higher resist-
ance in the temperature sensor, thereby measuring a low-
er voltage signal.
The TCM measures this voltage as another input to help
control line pressure, shift schedules and TCC apply.
When transaxle fluid temperature reaches 140°C (284°F)
the TCM enters ”hot mode.” Above this temperature the
TCM modifies transaxle shift schedules and TCC apply in
an attempt to reduce fluid temperature by reducing trans-
axle heat generation. During hot mode the TCM applies
the TCC at all times in fourth gear.
Also, the TCM commands the 2–3 and 3–4 shifts earlier
to help reduce fluid heat generation. Hot mode may not be
available on some applications.

Transaxle Electrical Connector
The transaxle electrical connector is a very important part
of the transaxle operating system. Any interference with
the electrical connection can cause the transaxle to set
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and/or affect proper op-
eration.
The following items can affect the electrical connections:S Bent pins in the connector from rough handling dur-
ing connection and disconnection.
S Wires backing away from the pins or coming un-
clamped (in either internal or external wiring har-
ness).
S Dirt contamination entering the connector when dis-
connected.
S Pins in the internal wiring connector backing out of
the connector or pushed out during reconnection.
