Hydraulic pressure is not applied to the clutches. Power is not transmitted to the countershaft. The countershaft is
locked by the park pawl interlocking the park gear.
Engine power transmitted from the torque converter drives the mainshaft idler gear, the idler shaft idler gear, and the
secondary shaft idler gear, but hydraulic pressure is not applied to the clutches. Power is not transmitted to the
countershaft.
In this position, the position of the reverse selector differs according to whether the shift lever shifted from D or R: When shifted from D, the reverse selector engages with the c ountershaft 4th gear and the reverse selector hub, and
4th gear engages with the countershaft.
When shifted from R, the reverse selector engages with the countershaft r everse gear and the reverse selectorhub,
and reverse gear engages with the countershaft.

The electronic control system consists of the powertrain control module (PCM), sensors, and solenoid valves.
Shifting and lock-up are electronically controlled for comfortable driving under all conditions.
The PCM receives input signals from sensors, switches, and other control units, processes data, and outputs signals
for the engine control system and the A/T control system. The A/T control system includes shift control, grade logic
control, clutch pressure control, and lock-up control.
The PCM switches the shift solenoid valves and the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves ON and OFF to control
gear selection and torque converter clutch lock-up.
