GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-7
ELECTRONICALLY-CONTROLLED SYSTEM
.
INVECS-II
When in drive ("D" range), the new automatic transmission
employs an innovative shift schedule to provide a high level
of comfort and "easy driving style" that matches all driving
conditions as well as the driver's driving style.
INVECS-II features "Optimum Shift Control," which provides
shift timing the average driver perceives to be the optimum
timing under any road conditions. "Adaptive Shift Control"
adjusts shift timing to match the driving habits and prefer-
ences of individual drivers.
.
INVECS-II Sports Mode Automatic Transmission
A further development of the INVECS-II automatic transmis-
sion, incorporating a sports mode that enables quasi-manual
gear shifts. When the gear shift lever is pushed sideways fronm
the "D" position to the sports mode position, the driver can use
it to make gear selections manually. The sports mode has the
following features.
In contrast to the automatic "D" range, the sports mode
does not perform automatic upshifts. Thus, the engine can
be driven fully into its red zone.
For more rapid gear shifting, it is possible to shift directly
from 4th gear to 2nd gear, therby skipping a gear.
When the vehicle decelerates and stops, the system auto-
maticaly shifts down to 1st gear for conveinience when the
vehicle starts moving again. Further, 2nd gear can be
selected with the vehicle stationary, so standing starts can
be made in 2nd gear on slippery surfaces.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-8
FEATURES
OPTIMUM SHIFT CONTROL
1. The shift patterns found satisfying by the typical driver for all
ranges of driving are stored in the computer's memory. The
computer uses this data to analyze road conditions and the
driver's style of operation, and then outputs the optimal shift
patterns stored in its memory to best match the conditions.
2. We introduce the latest control technologies with an innova-
tive new algorithm called the "neural network" that works to
imitate the decision-making processes of the human brain.
The neural network links a wide variety of input data regard-
ing road and operating conditions, and instantly makes
accurate shift control decisions.
.
ADAPTIVE SHIFT CONTROL
1. The computer learns the driving habits and pref-
erences of each individual driver by processing
driving data on engine output, tyre load, foot
brake operation, etc. It then uses this data to
adjust shift timing to best suit the driver's style.2. If the computer determines from the driving pat-
terns that the driver is one who enjoys a relaxed,
unhurried style, it adjusts timing to execute
up-shifts at a lower engine speed to provide a
smooth, quiet ride. On the other hand, if the com-
puter determines the driver to prefer a sporty ride,
it adjusts timing to shift up at a higher engine
speed to provide more powerful response.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-17
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
1. Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link
connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Select "CAN bus diagnosis" from the start-up screen.
4. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm that it
matches the vehicle whose CAN bus lines will be
diagnosed.
If they match, go to step 8.
If not, go to step 5.
5. Select the "view vehicle information" button.
6. Enter the vehicle information and select the "OK" button.
7. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm again
that it matches the vehicle whose CAN bus lines will be
diagnosed.
If they match, go to step 8.
If not, go to step 5.
8. Select the "OK" button.
9. When the optional equipment screen is displayed, choose
the one which the vehicle is fitted with, and then select the
"OK" button.
HOW TO INITIALIZE A/T LEARNING VALUEM1231022600121
AIM
The use of EEPROM has enabled the A/T learned
value to be retained even after the battery terminals
are disconnected. However, the learned value should
be initialized if the A/T assembly, the engine assem-
bly, the valve body assembly or the solenoid valves
are replaced. The initialization procedure is as
below:
INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
1. Shift the selector lever to the P range and turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position. Then,
connect the MUT-III to the diagnosis connector.
2. Initialize the learned value on the initialization
screen.
3. After this initialization, make the system learn the
idling in accordance with "Learning procedure for
idling in MPI engine" (Refer to GROUP 00

Precautions before Service 00-22).

FAIL-SAFE/BACKUP FUNCTIONM1231008300234
When a malfunction of a main sensor or actuator is
detected by the A/T-ECU, the transmission is con-
trolled by pre-set control logic to maintain safe condi-
tions for driving.The following table shows how the fail-safe/backup
function affects vehicle driveability and operation.

Input shaft speed sensor If no output pulse
from the input shaft
speed sensor is
detected for one
second or more
when the vehicle
speed is 30 km/h (19
mph) or greater.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
Output shaft speed sensor The output signal
from the output shaft
speed sensor is not
present for one

driven.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in

met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
Low-reverse solenoid valve Solenoid valve
resistance is below
2.7 ohms for 0.32

met, the A/T control relay is turned off. The
transmission will only operate in 3rd and reverse
