TCM FunctionINFOID:0000000001327135
The function of the TCM is to:
 Receive input signals sent from various switches and sensors.
 Determine required line pressure, shifting point, lock-up operation, and engine brake operation.
 Send required output signals to the respective solenoids.

A/T CONTROL SYSTEM
*1: Full phase real-time feedback control monitors movement of gear ratio at gear change, and controls oil
pressure at real-time to achieve the best gear ratio.
BLIPPING CONTROL
This system makes transmission clutch engage readily by controlling (synchronizing) engine revolution
according to the (calculation of) engine revolution after shifting down.
 “BLIPPING CONTROL” functions.
- When downshifting by accelerator pedal depression at “D” position.
- When downshifting under the manual mode.
 TCM selects “BLIPPING CONTROL” or “NORMAL SHIFT CONTROL” according to the gear position, the
select lever position, the engine torque and the speed when accelerating by accelerator pedal depression.
 Revolution control demand signal is transmitted from TCM to ECM under “BLIPPING CONTROL”.
 TCM synchronizes engine revolution according to the revolution control demand signal.
Shift Change System Diagram
Lock-up ControlINFOID:0000000001327140
The torque converter clutch piston in the torque conv erter is engaged to eliminate torque converter slip to
increase power transmission efficiency.
The torque converter clutch control valve operation is c ontrolled by the torque converter clutch solenoid valve,
which is controlled by a signal from TCM, and the to rque converter clutch control valve engages or releases
the torque converter clutch piston.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
DTC Inspection Priority ChartINFOID:0000000001327148
If some DTCs are displayed at the same time, per form inspections one by one based on the following priority
chart.
NOTE:
If “DTC U1000” is displayed with other DTCs, fi rst perform the trouble diagnosis for “DTC U1000 CAN
COMMUNICATION”. Refer to AT- 9 4
.
Fail-SafeINFOID:0000000001327149
The TCM has an electrical fail-safe mode. This mode make s it possible to operate even if there is an error in a
main electronic control input/output signal circuit.
In fail-safe mode, even if the selector lever is “D” or “M” mode, the transmission is fixed in 2nd, 4th or 5th
(depending on the breakdown position), so the customer should feel “slipping” or “poor acceleration”.
Even when the electronic circuits are normal, under s pecial conditions (for example, when slamming on the
brake with the wheels spinning drastically and stopping the ti re rotation), the transmission can go into fail-safe
mode. If this happens, switch OFF the ignition switch for 10 seconds, then switch it ON again to return to the
normal shift pattern. Therefore, t he customer's vehicle has returned to normal, so handle according to the
“WORK FLOW” (Refer to AT- 4 2
).
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
If any malfunction occurs in a sensor or solenoid, th is function controls the A/T to mark driving possible.
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Signals are input from two systems - from vehicle speed sensor A/T (revolution sensor) installed on the trans-
mission and from combination meter so normal driving is possible even if there is a malfunction in one of the
systems. And if vehicle speed sens or A/T (revolution sensor) has unus ual cases, 5th gear and manual mode
are prohibited.
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor
If there is a malfunction in one of the systems, the accelerator opening angle is controlled by ECM according
to a pre-determined accelerator angle to make driving po ssible. And if there are malfunctions in tow systems,
the engine speed is fixed by ECM to a pre-determined engine speed to make driving possible.
Throttle Position Sensor
If there is a malfunction in one of the systems, the accelerator opening angle is controlled by ECM according
to a pre-determined accelerator angle to make driving po ssible. And if there are malfunctions in tow systems,
the accelerator opening angle is controlled by the idle signal sent from the ECM which is based on input indi-
cating either idle condition or off-idle condition (pre- determined accelerator opening) in order to make driving
possible.
PNP Switch
In the unlikely event that a malfunction signal enters t he TCM, the position indicator is switched OFF, the
starter relay is switched OFF (starter starting is di sabled), the back-up lamp relay switched OFF (back-up lamp
is OFF) and the position is fixed to the “D” position to make driving possible.
Starter Relay
The starter relay is switched OFF. (Starter starting is disabled.)
A/T Interlock
 If there is an A/T interlock judgment malfunction, t he A/T is fixed in 2nd gear to make driving possible.
NOTE:
When the vehicle is driven fixed in 2nd gear, a turbine revolution sensor malfunction is displayed,
but this is not a turbine r evolution sensor malfunction.
 When the coupling pattern below is detected, the fail- safe action corresponding to the pattern is performed.

< SERVICE INFORMATION >
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
When there is an A/T first gear engine brake judgment malfunction, the low coast brake solenoid is switched
OFF to avoid the engine brake operation.
Line Pressure Solenoid
The solenoid is switched OFF and the line pressure is set to the maximum hydraulic pressure to make driving
possible.
Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid
The solenoid is switched OFF to release the lock-up.
Low Coast Brake Solenoid
When a malfunction (electrical or functional) occurs, in or der to make driving possible, if the solenoid is ON,
the transmission is held in 2nd gear; if the solenoid is OFF, the A/T is held in 4th gear. (Engine brake is not
applied in 1st and 2nd gear.)
Input Clutch Solenoid
If a malfunction (electrical or functi onal) occurs with the solenoid either ON or OFF, the A/T is held in 4th gear
to make driving possible.
Direct Clutch Solenoid
If a malfunction (electrical or functi onal) occurs with the solenoid either ON or OFF, the A/T is held in 4th gear
to make driving possible.
Front Brake Solenoid
If a malfunction (electrical or functi onal) occurs with the solenoid ON, in order to make driving possible, the A/
T is held in 5th gear; if the solenoid is OFF, 4th gear.
High and Low Reverse Clutch Solenoid
If a malfunction (electrical or functi onal) occurs with the solenoid either ON or OFF, the A/T is held in 4th gear
to make driving possible.
Turbine Revolution Sensor 1 or 2
The control is the same as if there were no turbi ne revolution sensors, 5th gear and manual mode are prohib-
ited.
How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis for Quick and Accurate RepairINFOID:0000000001327150
INTRODUCTION
The TCM receives a signal from the vehicle speed sensor , accelerator pedal position sensor (throttle position
sensor) or PNP switch and provides shift cont rol or lock-up control via A/T solenoid valves.
The TCM also communicates with the ECM by means of a signal
sent from sensing elements used with the OBD-related parts of the
A/T system for malfunction-diagnos tic purposes. The TCM is capa-
ble of diagnosing malfunctioning parts while the ECM can store mal-
functions in its memory.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the A/T system. The A/T system must be in good oper-
ating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve malfunc-
tion, etc.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a error that occurs intermittently
rather than continuously. Most inte rmittent errors are caused by poor
electric connections or improper wiring. In this case, careful check-
ing of suspected circuits may help prevent the replacement of good
parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the errors. A road test
with CONSULT-III (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should be
performed. Follow the "WORK FLOW".

FUNCTION
CONSULT-III REFERENCE VALUE
NOTICE:
1. The CONSULT-III electrically displays shift timi ng and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each
solenoid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timi ng and the CONSULT-III display. If the difference is
noticeable, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sens ors, etc.) may be malfunctioning. Check mechanical
parts using applicable diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedule (which implies gear position) display ed on CONSULT-III and that indicated in Service Man-
ual may differ slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:
- Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
- Shift schedule indicated in Service Manual refers to the point where shifts start, and
- Gear position displayed on CONSULT-III indicates the point where shifts are completed.
