Down Slope Mode
Condition for setting the down slope mode shift map;
All of the following conditions are met:
• Brake pedal switch is depressed
• Accelerator pedal is released
• Vehicle speed is more than 60 km/h (36 MPH)
• Increment of vehicle speed is more than 1 km/h (1 MPH) per second
• Selector lever is D or 3 range
Condition for canceling the down slope mode shift map;
Either of the following condition is met:
• Accelerator pedal is depressed
• Selector lever is other than D or 3 range Power Drive Mode
When the power drive switch is ON, the TCM switches
shift map to the power drive mode map and performs
gearshift control from 1st to 4th to gain more
acceleration compared with normal mode.
Up Slope Mode
Up slope reasoning value is calculated from the
averaged accelerator pedal angle and the averaged
acceleration. Otherwise, up slope reasoning value is
calculated from the vehicle speed. The TCM selects a
up slope mode when the former is bigger than the
latter.

7A2-158 TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (JR405E)
The TCM controls the torque converter clutch (TCC)
solenoid valve based on the accelerator pedal angle,
input shaft speed, output shaft speed and transmission
fluid temperature.
Smooth lock up control is employed to engage or
disengage the TCC smoothly at the time of lock up On
or Off. When the TCM determines the TCC
engagement, the solenoid valve control duty cycle
(pulse width modulation [PWM]) signal is gradually
increased (5% to 95%) and the transmission fluid
between the TCC piston and torque converter front
cover is gradually drained. As a result, the TCC piston
is fitted slowly to the torque converter front cover under
fluid pressure securing smooth lock up engagement. The lock up control does not start when the
transmission fluid temperature is less than 20 °C (68 °F)
even though the vehicle is at the lock up control speed
area. The lock up control disengages when the
accelerator pedal angle is released.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (JR405E) 7A2-159
Based on each transmission fluid pressure (TFP)
switch signal and each speed sensor signal and the
accelerator pedal angle, the duty cycle type shift
solenoid valve adjusts the clutch pressure to match the
engine load and vehicle running conditions. Controlling
the engagement and disengagement of the clutch and
brake pressure is directly and accurately controlled via
TCM, which is different to the conventional accumulator
type. Instead of the conventional system (On/ Off type
shift solenoid valve and shift valve), the combination of
the duty cycle type solenoid valve and the amplifier
(AMP) valve are used to adjust the clutch pressure to
match the engine load and vehicle driving conditions,
based on the signal from the TCM. Also, the TFP
switch provided in the fluid passage of the control valve
transmits to TCM, enabling the engagement and
disengagement control of the clutch and brake to be
directly and finely. When the gear is shifted from the
2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th, 4th 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.

7A3-2 ON-VEHICLE SERVICE (JR405E)
DESCRIPTION
Before performing on-vehicle service on the automatic
transmission, check that the engine idling speed and
general engine condition are normal.
For shift interlock function, if the ignition key is out of
“LOCK” position, the shift lever select button can not be
pushed. (shift lever can not be operated.)
RTW 77ASH000901
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID (ATF)
Inspect
Remove the transmission dipstick to check the condition
of the ATF.
Check the color and smell of the ATF.
If the ATF is abnormal color or smells burnt, replace it
and investigate the cause of trouble.
Coloor of ATF Condition Clear red Normality
Blackish discoloration Defects of power train
parts (clutches)
W hite turbidity Include water
Discoloration of red brown Deterioration of ATF
ATF LEVEL
Inspect
Hot Level
1. W arm up the engine and the transmission by driving
the vehicle on the road so that the temperature
reaches around 80 °C (176 °F).
Do not turn the engine off.
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
3. Apply the parking brake firmly.
4. Let the engine run at idle.
Move the select lever slowly through all the gea
r
positions.
Stop in each gear position just long enough for the transmission to engage.
5. Return the select lever to either “P” or “N”.
6. Remove the ATF level dipstick.
7. W ipe the dipstick clean with a paper towel.
8. Reinsert the dipstick and wait several seconds.
9. Remove the dipstick.
The ATF level should be inside the “H” range on the dipstick.
242R300001
If the ATF level is below the “H” range, ATF must be added.
