< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >[7AT: RE7R01B]
STRUCTURE AND OPERATION
 The 1st one-way clutch and the front brake regulate c
ounterclockwise rotation of the under drive carrier.
NOTE:
The front brake operates at the fixed speed or less.
 The rear carrier and the mid internal gear are fixed by the reverse brake.
 The mid sun gear rotates at the same speed as the rear sun gear by operation of the 2nd one-way clutch
and the high and low reverse clutch.
NOTE:
The high and low reverse clutch operates at the fixed speed or less.

Name of the Part (Abbreviation) Function
Front brake (FR/B) Fastens the under drive carrier.
Input clutch (I/C) Connects the input shaft, the mid internal gear and the rear carrier.
Direct clutch (D/C) Connects the rear carrier and the rear sun gear.
High and low reverse clutch (HLR/C) Connects the rear sun gear and the mid sun gear.
Reverse brake (R/B) Fastens the rear carrier.
Low brake (L/B) Fastens the mid sun gear.
2346 brake (2346/B) Fastens the under drive sun gear.
1st one-way clutch (1st OWC) Allows the under drive carrier to turn freely in the forward direction but fastens it for reverse
rotation.
2nd one-way clutch (2nd OWC) Allows the rear sun gear to turn freely in the forward direction but fastens it for reverse ro-
tation.
Torque converter Amplifies driving force the engine, and transmits it to transmission input shaft.
Oil pump Driven by the engine, oil pump supplies oil to torque converter, control valve assembly, and
each lubricating system.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
 The A/T senses vehicle operating conditions through vari
ous sensors or signals. It always controls the opti-
mum shift position and reduces shifting and lock-up shocks.
 Receive input signals transmitted from various switches and sensors.
 Determine required line pressure, shifting point, lock-up operation, etc.

LINE PRESSURE CONTROL
LINE PRESSURE CONTROL : System DiagramINFOID:0000000006226771
LINE PRESSURE CONTROL : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006226772
 When an engine and A/T integrated control signal (engine
torque) equivalent to the engine drive force is
transmitted from the ECM to the TCM, the TC M controls the line pressure solenoid valve.
This line pressure solenoid controls the pressure regul ator valve as the signal pressure and adjusts the pres-
sure of the operating oil discharged from the oil pump to the line pressure most appropriate to the driving
state.
 The TCM has stored in memory a number of patterns fo r the optimum line pressure characteristic for the
driving state.
 In order to obtain the most appropriate line pressure char acteristic to meet the current driving state, the TCM
controls the line pressure solenoid current value and thus controls the line pressure.
Normal Control
Each clutch is adjusted to the necessary pressure to match the
engine drive force.
