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.

7A1-8 CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF COMPONENT
TORQUE CONVERTER (WITH LOCK-UP FUNCTION)
The torque converter is a device for transmitting the engine torque to the transmission. It transmits power
by means of oil when the lock-up is disengaged and by means of a lock-up piston when it is engaged.
The torque converter is of the symmetrical, three-element, single-stage, two-phase type.
As shown in the drawing, the symmetrical three-elements refer to three elements (components) consisting
of impeller (1), turbine (2) and stator (3) that are arranged symmetrically (figure 5).
"Single-stage" means that there is only one turbine as an output element; "two-phase" means that the
pump impeller acts as a torque converter when the turbine speed is comparatively low, and as a fluid
coupling when the speed is high.

Lock-up mechanism
"Lock-up" refers to a fixed state of the lock-up piston inside the torque converter and thus connects the
engine directly to the transmission.
The hydraulic pressure for the lock-up control is supplied from two circuits.
When the lock-up is disengaged (Figure 7)
When the lock-up is disengaged, the torque converter operating pressure is supplied from the oil passage
(A) to between the cover and the lock-up piston, and separates the lock-up piston clutch facing and
converter cover.
As a result, the engine drive power is transmitted from the converter cover to the pump impeller, the ATF
and to the turbine. The torque converter function as a fluid connector in this condition.
The torque converter operating pressure is supplied from the oil passage (A), passes through the oil
passage (B).
When the lock-up is engaged (Figure 8)
When the lock-up is engaged, the torque converter operating pressure is supplied from oil passage (B) to
the oil pump impeller, turbine, then to the stator side. The oil between the lock-up piston and converter
cover is drained.
Since the force acting on the right side of the lock-up piston is greater than force on the left side, it
connects the lock-up piston clutch facing with the converter cover, thereby increasing the transmission
efficiency.

OIL PUMP
The oil pump generating oil pressure is a small-size trochoid gear type oil pump. It feeds oil to the torque
converter, lubricates the power train mechanism, and feeds the oil pressure to the oil pressure control unit
under pressure.
The oil pump is located behind the torque converter. Sine the inner rotor in the oil pump is fitted with the
drive sleeve of the torque converter, it works by the power from the engine.
Figure 9. Construction of Oil Pump Figure 10. Location of Oil Pump
When the inner rotor in the oil pump rotates, ATF is sucked in from the oil pan, passed between the inner
rotor, outer rotor and crescent and discharged. This pressure discharged is sent to the pressure
regulator valve in the control valve and adjusted as required for operating the A/T. The flow rate under
pressure increases or decreases in proportion of the number of rotations.
