CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION 7A1-25
TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM)
• The TCM is fitted on the side of the brake pedal via two stud bolts.
• The TCM judges the line pressure, gear shifting point and lock-up operation based on electrical signals
from switches and sensors, and sends the appropriate signals to solenoids.

7A1-28 CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION
Item Description
Learning function The learning function is provided to correct the oil pressure control timing to engage or
disengage the clutch optimally in order to compensate changes of the engine performance
and changes of the transmission with time. It is controlled to bring the shift time closer to
the value pre-set to the TCM.
Fail-safe function In the case of a malfunction of the vehicle speed sensor, APP sensor, all solenoids or the
inhibitor switch, TCM automatically begins fail-safe control to minimize effects on driving.
The gear is fixed in 3rd gear and the power supply to the solenoid is shut off so that the
solenoid does not work. Lock up clutch is disengaged in this mode.
Self-diagnosis function Parts required for controlling the automatic transmission are provided with a self-diagnosis
function. W hen any trouble occurs, the check trans indicator lamp blinks to warn the driver.
The trouble code is memorized in the TCM.

CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION 7A1-31
As a result, the lock-up piston is fitted slowly to the converter cover under pressure securing smooth lock-
up engagement.
Figure 51. Lock-up Control
DIRECT ELECTRIC SHIFT CONTROL (DESC)
Feature
• Based on each switch signal (low & reverse brake pressure, 2-4 brake pressure & high clutch pressure)
and each sensor signal (turbine sensor, speed sensor, engine speed signal & APP position signal), the
duty cycle type solenoid adjusts the clutch pressure to match the engine load and vehicle travel
conditions. Controlling the engagement and disengagement of the clutch and brake pressure is directly
and accurately controlled via TCM, which is different to the previous accumulator type.
Operation
• Instead of the previous system (on/off type of shift solenoid and shift valve), the combination of the duty
cycle type solenoid and the amplifier (Amp) valve are used to adjust the clutch pressure to match the
engine load and vehicle travel conditions, based on the signal from the TCM. Also, the pressure switch
provided in the oil passage of the control valve transmits the oil pressure condition (at that time) to TCM,
enabling the engagement and disengagement control of the clutch and brake to be directly and finely
carried out.
• 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
pressures on the engagement side and disengagement side are simultaneously controlled.
As a result, engine racing or clutch drag is prevented which enables a smooth and quick shift response.
