DESCRIPTION

The electro-hydraulic control system for the transmission and transfer consists of various sensors and switches, TCM, and the control valves including solenoid valves. The system controls the automatic transmission operation, including gear shifting, lockup clutch operation, line pressure, pilot pressure, and gear-shift timing. It also controls the operation of the transfer clutch. The TCM determines vehicle operating conditions from various input signals and controls a total of eight solenoids (front brake solenoid, low coast brake solenoid, input clutch solenoid, high and low reverse clutch solenoid, direct clutch solenoid, lockup solenoid, line pressure solenoid, and transfer solenoid) by sending appropriate signals to them.
