Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Line Pressure Control (LPC)
The Line Pressure Control (LPC) is installed on the front valve body. Based on a signal indicating the degree to which the throttle is opened, engine torque, and according to a duty ratio predetermined in the TCM, the solenoids control line hydraulic pressure by linearly changing the comparable throttle hydraulic pressure. Through this, it controls operating hydraulic pressure to the clutch and brakes for smooth shifting. As a fail-safe function, if any shift control solenoid assembly abnormality occurs, the TCM will disable the current to the shift control solenoids. The line pressure is maximized, if the shift control solenoid assembly current is disabled when any abnormality other than locking occurs.

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
