The five-speed automatic transmission uses hydraulically-actuated clutches to engage or disengage the transmission
gears. When hydraulic pressure is introduced into the clutch drum, the clutch piston moves. This presses the friction
discs and the steel plates together, locking them so they do not slip. Power is then transmitted through the engaged
clutch pack to its hub-mounted gear. Likewise, when the hydraulic pressure is bled from the clutch pack, the piston
releases the friction discs and the steel plates, and they are free to slide past each other. This allows the gear to spin
independently on its shaft, transmitting no power.

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.

When the PCM determines that the vehicle is climbing a hill in D, and S with automatic shift mode, the system extends
the engagement area of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears to prevent the transmission from frequently shifting between 2nd and
3rd gears, between 3rd and 4th gears, and between 4th and 5th gears. Then PCM does this so the vehicle can run
smoothly and have more power when needed.
NOTE: Shift commands stored in the PCM between 2nd and 3rd gears, between 3rd and 4th gears, and between 4th
and 5th gears, enable it to automatically select the most suitable gear according to the magnitude of a gradient.
When the PCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in D, and S with automatic shift mode, the upshift
speed from 4th to 5th gear, from the 3rd to 4th gear, and from 2nd to 3rd gear (when the throttle is closed) becomes
higher than the set speed for flat road driving to extend 4th gear, 3rd gear, and 2nd gear driving area. This, in
combination with engine braking from the deceleration lock-up, achieves smooth driving when the vehicle is
descending. There are three descending modes with different 4th gear driving areas, 3rd gear driving areas, and 2nd
gear driving areas according to the magnitude of a gradient stored in the PCM. When the vehicle is in 5th gear or 4th
gear, and you are decelerating when you are applying the brakes on a steep hill, the transmission will downshift to
lower gear. When you accelerate, the transmission will then return to a higher gear.

Valve E
Shift solenoid valve E controls the hydraulic pressure to switch the lock-up shift valve and lock-up ON and OFF. When
the PCM actuates shift solenoid valve E and A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A to start lock-up. A/T clutch
pressure control solenoid valve A regulates and applies hydraulic pressure to the lock-up control valve to control the
amount of lock-up. The lock-up mechanism operates in D and S (2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th gears).
