Drive Output Split Engine On

When the gear selector lever is moved to the Drive (D) position from the Neutral (N) position, and the HPCM determines that operating conditions are appropriate, the internal combustion engine (ICE) is started, the auxiliary fluid pump is turned OFF, and the main fluid pump provides hydraulic fluid pressure (refer to Engine Start ). After Engine Start, the following changes would occur to the transmission's hydraulic and electrical systems in order to start the vehicle moving from a stopped position.

1-3 Reverse Clutch Remains Applied

The 1-3 reverse clutch is applied for Engine Start, and remains applied for Reverse - Series Mode (Engine ON).

Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 4

The PC solenoid 4 is energised (ON) allowing actuator feed limit fluid to enter the PCS 4 signal circuit. PCS 4 signal fluid is then routed through orifice #18 to the 1-3 reverse clutch regulator valve.

Shift Solenoid 2

The shift solenoid 2 is energised (ON) allowing actuator feed limit fluid to enter the solenoid 2 signal fluid circuit. Solenoid 2 signal fluid is routed through orifice #21 to the shift solenoid valve - mode A. Solenoid 2 signal fluid is also routed to the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch regulator valve, and to the 1-3 reverse clutch regulator valve.

1-3 Reverse Clutch Regulator Valve

PCS 4 signal fluid, at the 1-3 reverse clutch regulator valve, opposes 1-3 reverse clutch regulator valve spring force and 13 reverse clutch feedback fluid pressure to regulate line or auxiliary line pressure into the 13 reverse clutch/A cooling feed circuit.

#3 Ball Check Valve

13 reverse clutch feedback fluid unseats the #3 ball check valve, allowing excess pressure to pass into the actuator feed limit circuit. This helps to control clutch apply fluid pressure and clutch apply feel.

Shift Solenoid Valve - Mode A

13 reverse clutch/A cooling feed fluid passes through the shift solenoid valve - mode A and enters the 13 reverse clutch circuit.

1-3 Reverse Clutch Assembly

13 reverse clutch fluid passes through the case and the transmission fluid pump cover into the 1-3 reverse clutch housing and moves the 1-3 reverse clutch piston against spring force to apply the 1-3 reverse clutch plates.

#1 Pressure Switch

Solenoid 2 signal fluid passes through the 1-3 reverse clutch regulator valve into the PS1 fluid passage. PS1 fluid opens the normally closed #1 pressure switch, signalling the TCM that the transmission is in Drive - Output Split.

Torque Damper Clutch Releases

Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 5

The PC solenoid 5 is de-energised (OFF) allowing PCS 5 signal fluid to exhaust from the damper bypass clutch valve.

Torque Damper Clutch Assembly

Damper clutch fluid exhausts from the torque damper clutch assembly to the damper bypass clutch valve allowing the torque damper clutch to release.

Damper Bypass Clutch Valve

Damper bypass clutch valve spring force moves the damper bypass clutch valve to the released position, allowing damper clutch fluid pressure to exhaust through the valve into the exhaust backfill circuit.

Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor

Damper clutch fluid pressure in the exhaust backfill circuit exhausts at the TFT sensor.

Variable Hi and 2-3-4 Clutch Remains Applied

Variable Hi and 2-3-4 Clutch Assembly

With the exception of the switch to line fluid pressure from the main fluid pump assembly, no other changes occur to the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch fluid circuit and the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch remains applied.

Shift Accumulation

1-3 Reverse Clutch Accumulator

13 reverse clutch fluid is also sent to the 1-3 reverse clutch accumulator assembly. 13 reverse clutch fluid moves the 1-3 reverse clutch accumulator piston against accumulator spring force to cushion the apply of the 1-3 reverse clutch assembly.

Variable Hi and 2-3-4 Clutch Accumulator

VH 234 clutch fluid is also sent to the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch accumulator assembly. VH 234 clutch fluid moves the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch accumulator piston against accumulator spring force to cushion the application of the variable hi and 2-3-4 clutch assembly.
