• CVT detects the vehicle driving status from switc hes, sensors and signals, and controls the vehicle so that
the optimum shift position and shift timing may always be achieved. It also controls the vehicle to reduce
shift and lockup shock, etc.
• Receives input signals from switches and sensors.
• Sends the output signal necessary for operation of so lenoid valves, and evaluates the line pressure, shift
timing, lockup operation, engine brake performance, etc.
• If a malfunction occurs on the electric system, activa te the fail-safe mode only to drive the vehicle.
LIST OF CONTROL ITEMS AND INPUT/OUTPUT
*: If these input/output signals show errors, TCM activates the fail-safe function.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Fail-safeINFOID:0000000009463988
TCM has a fail-safe mode. The mode functions so that operation can be continued even if the signal circuit of
the main electronically controlled input/output parts is damaged.
If the vehicle shows following behaviors including “poor acceleration”, a malfunction of the applicable system
is detected by TCM and the vehicle may be in a fail-s afe mode. At this time, check the DTC code and perform
inspection and repair according to the malfunction diagnosis procedures.

Protection Control INFOID:0000000009464003
The TCM becomes the protection control status temporar ily to protect the safety when the safety of TCM and
transmission is lost. It automatically returns to the normal status if the safety is secured.
The TCM has the following protection control.
CONTROL FOR WHEEL SPIN
TORQUE IS REDUCED WHEN DRIVING WITH THE REVERSE GEAR
CONTROL WHEN FLUID TEMPERATURE IS HIGH
REVERSE PROHIBIT CONTROL
DTC Inspection Priority ChartINFOID:0000000009464004
If multiple malfunction codes are detected at the same time, check each code according to the DTC check pri-
ority list below.
Control When a wheel spin is detected, the engine output and gear ratio are limited and the line pressure is increased.
Limits engine output when a wheel spin occurs in any of right and left drive wheels.
Vehicle behavior in
control If the accelerator is kept depressing during wheel spin, the engine revolution and vehicle speed are limited to
a certain degree.
Normal return condi-
tion Wheel spin convergence returns the control to the normal control.
Control Engine output is controlled according to a vehicle speed while reversing the vehicle.
Vehicle behavior in
control Power performance may be lowered while reversing the vehicle.
Normal return condi-
tion Torque returns to normal by positioning the sele
ctor lever in a range other than “R” position.
Control When the CVT fluid temperature is high, the gear shift permission maximum revolution and the maximum
torque are reduced than usual to prevent increase of the oil temperature.
Vehicle behavior in
control Power performance may be lowered, compared to normal control.
Normal return condi-
tion The control returns to the normal control when CVT fluid temperature is lowered.
ControlThe reverse brake is controlled to avoid becoming engaged when the selector lever is set in “R” position while
driving in forward direction at more than the specified speed.
Vehicle behavior in
control If the selector lever is put at “R” position when driving with the forward gear, the gear becomes neutral, not
reverse.
Normal return condi-
tion The control returns to normal control when the vehicle is driven at low speeds. (The reverse brake becomes
engaged.)

ADDITIONAL SERVICE WHEN RE PLACING TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009464012
Perform the following work after the transaxle assembly is replaced.
ERASING AND WRITING TCM DATA• TCM performs accurate control by retrieving data (inher ent characteristic value) of each solenoid. For this
reason, after replacing transaxle assembly, it is nec essary to erase data stored in TCM and write new data.
ERASING OF CVT FLUID DEGRADATION LEVEL DATA • TCM records the degradation level of the CVT fluid calc ulated from the vehicle driving status. Therefore, if
the transaxle assembly is replaced, it is necessary to erase the CVT fluid degradation level data recorded by
TCM.
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000009464013
1.CHECK THE SERIAL NUMBER (PART 1)
Write down the serial number of new transaxle assembly.
>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK THE SERIAL NUMBER (PART 2)
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Insert the attached CD into CONSULT.
3. Select “Work Support” in “TRANSMISSION”.
4. Select “WRITE IP CHARA - REPLACEMENT AT/CVT”.
5. Check that the serial number displayed on CO NSULT screen and those written in the memo agree.
CAUTION:
Never perform writing procedure.
6. Go back to MENU of “Work Support”.
>> GO TO 3.
3.INITIALIZE TCM
1. Set parking brake.
2. Select “ERASE MEMORY DATA”.
3. Touch “Start” according to the instructions on the CONSULT screen.
Is
“COMPLETED” displayed?
YES >> GO TO 4.
