Electronic Control System
Electronic Control System
The electronic control system consists of the Transmission Control module (TCM), sensors, a linear solenoid and 4
solenoid valves. Shifting and lock-up are electronically controlled for comfortable driving under and conditions.
The TCM is located on the insulator center bulkhead, behind the driver’s seat.
Shift control
Shifting is related to engine torque through the linear solenoid used to operate throttle valve B which is controlled by the
TCM.
Getting a signal from each sensor, the TCM detects the appropriate gear shifting and activates shift control solenoid
valves A and/or B.
The combination of driving signals to shift control solenoid valves A and B is shown in the table below.
Lock-up control
From sensor input signals, the TCM detects whether to turn the lock-up ON or OFF and activates lock-up control solenoid
valve A and/or B accordingly.
The combination of driving signals to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B is shown in the table below.
