Figure 1. Construction of Automatic Transmission
The JR405E automatic transmission is electrically controlled by a microcomputer transmission control module
(TCM). There are four forward speeds and one reverse speed.
This JR405E automatic transmission employs a clutch pressure direct control system (Direct Electronic Shift
Control: DESC) using a duty cycle type solenoid, which ensures high shift quality.
This transmission also controls learning and constantly checks the time of each clutch and brake required for
the speed change to match this time with the target value for the optimum speed change.
The TCM will automatically select the most appropriate shift points and lock-up points depending on the
throttle opening angle, the vehicle speed and the vehicle load.
If any trouble arises in the vehicle sensor, throttle sensor, solenoid, etc., the fail-safe control function is
activated to keep the running performance.
Problems with the sensors, the solenoids can be quickly detected with the self diagnosis procedure described
in this manual.
The JR405E automatic transmission consists of the torque converter, the oil pump, the input shaft, the out put
shaft, the planetary gears and the control valve.
The gear train consists of two planetary gear sets and three multiple plate clutches in combination with two
multiple plate brakes and a one-way clutch.

CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION 7A1-11
The JR405E consists of two sets of planetary gears, which are called front planetary gear and rear
planetary gear.
The sun gear of front planetary gear is fixed to the drive plates of 2-4 brake and reverse clutch.
The planetary carrier of front planetary gear is fixed to the drum of low clutch, the drive plates of low &
reverse brake and the hub of high clutch.
The internal gear of front planetary gear and the planetary carrier of rear planetary gear are connected as
one, and they are fixed to output shaft.
The sun gear of rear planetary gear is fixed to input shaft.
The internal gear of rear planetary gear is fixed to the hub of low clutch.
Clutch and Brake
Basic structure of the clutch and brake is shown in the figures below.
In the figure A, the clutch plates (drive plate and driven plate) are in the fluid so that they slip against each
other transmitting no power.
Figure B shows the condition where the oil pressure is acting on the piston. The clutch plates are fitted
to each other under pressure transmitting the rotations of the clutch drum to the clutch hub.
When the oil pressure is removed from the piston, the clutch returns to the condition in the figure A by the
return spring.
Figure 13. Basic Construction of Clutch and Brake
Low Clutch, High Clutch and Reverse Clutch (Multi-Plate Clutch)
The multi-plate clutch is composed of drive plates and driven plates. By applying the oil pressure onto
the end surface of the plates, the clutch is engaged or disengaged. The oil pressure is adjusted with the
control valve according to the signal from the TCM.
All clutches use dish plates to prevent uncontrolled operation of the clutches when engaged, causing a
shock.
For the reverse clutch, a piston check ball is used to release the oil pressure for the purpose of preventing
the clutch drag due to oil pressure generated by residual ATF because of the centrifugal force while the
clutch is racing (under no oil pressure).
For the low clutch and high clutch, a centrifugal balance chamber always full of ATF is provided to offset
the excessive oil pressure, for the purpose of preventing the clutch drag due to oil pressure generated by
residual ATF because of the centrifugal force while the clutch is racing (under no oil pressure).
The solenoid in the control valve is driven based on the speed change signal from TCM and moves the
shift valve, thereby engaging the drive plate and driven plate through the piston of each clutch.
Resultantly, elements of the planetary gear unit are combined.
When the oil pressure is removed, the piston returns to the original position by the force of the return
spring.
CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION 7A1-25
TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM)
The TCM is fitted side of brake pedal by means of two stud bolts.
The TCM judges necessary line pressure, gear shifting point and lock-up operation based on electrical
signals from switches and sensors and sends appropriate signals to solenoids.
