TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (4L30–E)

Shift Control

The transmission gear is shifted according to the shift
pattern selected by the driver. In shifting gears, the gear
ratio is controlled by the ON/ OFF signal using the shift
solenoid A and the shift solenoid B.

Band Apply Control

The band apply is controlled when in the 3–2 downshift
(engine overrun prevention) and the garage shift (shock
control).
The band apply solenoid is controlled by the signal from
the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to regulate the flow of
the oil.

Torque Converter Clutch Control

The clutch ON/OFF is controlled by moving the converter
clutch valve through shifting Torque Converter Clutch
(TCC) solenoid using the ON/OFF signal.

Line Pressure Control

The throttle signal allows the current signal to be sent to
the force motor. After receiving the current signal, the
force motor activates the pressure regulator valve to
regulate the line pressure.

On–Board Diagnostic System

Several malfunction displays can be stored in the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) memory, and read out
of it afterward.
The serial data lines, which are required for the testing of
the final assembly and the coupling to other electronic
modules, can be regulated by this function.

Fail–Safe Mechanism

If there is a problem in the transmission system, the PCM
will go into a “backup” mode.
The vehicle can still be driven, but the driver must use the
select lever to shift gears.

Torque Management Control

The transmission control side sends the absolute spark
advance signal to the engine control side while the
transmission is being shifted. This cintrols the engine
spark timing in compliance with the vehicle running
condition to reduce the shocks caused by the change of
speed.

ATF Warning Control

The oil temperature sensor detects the ATF oil
temperature to control the oil temperature warning, TCC,
and the winter mode.
