Feature
Based on the each switch signals (low & reverse brake pressure, 2-4 brake pressure & high clutch
pressure) and sensors signals (turbine sensor, speed sensor, engine speed signal & throttle position
signal), duty cycle type solenoid adjusts the clutch pressure to match the engine load and vehicle
traveling condition. By this result, controlling the engagement and disengagement of the clutch and brake
pressure is directly and accurately controlled via TCM, which is not realized in previous accumulator type.
Operation
Instead of the previous system (on/off type of shift solenoid and shift valve), the combination of duty cycle
type solenoid and amplifier (Amp) valve are used to adjust the clutch pressure to match the engine load
and vehicle traveling condition based on the signal from the TCM, and the pressure switch provided in the
oil passage of the control valve transmits the oil pressure condition at that time to TCM, thus controlling
the engagement and disengagement of the clutch and brake directly and finely.
When the gear is shifted from the 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th (O/D), 4th (O/D) to 3rd and 3rd to 2nd, the clutch
pressure on the engagement side and that on the disengagement side are simultaneously controlled.
As a result, engine racing or clutch drag is prevented securing smooth and quick speed change response

LEARNING CONTROL
Oil pressure control timing is optimally corrected at the time of clutch engagement and disengagement
and controlled to bring the speed-change time to the value preset to the TCM and compensate the
changes of the engine performance and changes of the transmission with time.
When the gear is shifted, the clutch pressure 2 is optimally corrected so that the speed-change time is as
near as the target value
1 preset to the TCM and the changes in the engine performance and the
changes of the transmission with time can be compensated based on the past speed-change results.
When the clutch is operated to shift the gear, the time of the clutch oil pressure release timing 4 on the
disengagement side is optimally corrected so that the changes of the engine rpm
3 is optimum.
Note:
When the battery terminal is disconnected, contents of learning are cleared and resultantly the speed
change shock may increase. After the vehicle has traveled, learning is repeated and the shock
decreases gradually.

7A1-38 CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION
P Range
Though the driving force of the input shaft is transmitted to the rear sun gear and reverse & high clutch drum,
the driving force is not transmitted to the output shaft since all of the clutches and brakes are not engaged.
Therefore, the vehicle can move at this condition. However, since the output shaft is mechanically locked
with the parking pawl, the rear planetary carrier and front internal gear are locked. For this reason, the
vehicle does not move.
