Stator, intermediate and output shafts. Three epicyclic geartrains. Six multi-disc clutch/brake packs. Two freewheels (One-way clutches). Hydraulic pump. Parking lock assembly. Electro-hydraulic control unit. Internal harness and 13 pin connector with bayonet lock.
Hydraulic pump
This engine driven pump is located at the front of the transmission casing and provides pressure for the hydraulic
functions.
Supplies fluid under pressure to the torq ue converter, geartrain, electro-hydraulic control unit and the lubrication
circuit.
Draws fluid from the fluid pa n below the transmission casing, through a filter.
Parking lock
This component prevents movement of th e vehicle by engaging a fixed pawl with the parking lock gear located on the
output shaft. The pawl is engaged by movi ng the gear selector lever to the park (P) position.
Electro-hydraulic control unit
This unit, mounted in the transmission lower case, converts signals, mechanical from the J-gate and electrical from the
TCM, into hydraulic functions.
The following components ar e assembled to the unit:
Selector valve. Shift plate. Control valve - modulating pressure. Control valve - shift pressure. Solenoid valve 1 <-> 2 and 4 <-> 5 shift. Solenoid valve 3 <-> 4 shift. Solenoid valve 2 <-> 3 shift. Solenoid valve - converter lock-up. Speed sensors (2). Temperature sensor.
Speed sensors
There are two speed sensors within the transmission assembly which provide input to the TCM. These inputs, when used in
conjunction with CAN data relative to engine speed (from ECM) and road speed (from ABS), are used to electronically
control the transmission.
Temperature sensor
The output from this sensor allows the TCM to compensate for the affect of fluid temperature on shift time and quality
Control Systems
Hydraulic Control
The selector valve is operated directly by the J-gate and directs fluid flow for P R N D.
Of the four solenoid valves, 3 control shifts and 1 controls converter lock-up. One control valve controls modulating pressure
and the other shift pressure.
Regulating valves are used to maintain/control pressure for lu brication, normal operating functions, and the supply to the
control valves and shift valves.

CAN Input Signals
Traction status ABS malfunction ABS status Engine torque status Throttle position Accelerator pedal position Engine torque reduction confirmation Engine speed Engine coolant temperature Cruise status OBDII fault code clear request Throttle malfunction warning RED or AMBER All road wheel speeds Token for network status ECM Token for network status INST Token for network status ABS Diagnostic data in from external device (PDU)

Emergency Running (elect ronic limp-home mode)
The TCM constantly monitors the transmissi on for faults. In the event of a problem the TCM will adopt the limp-home mode, in which the gear currently held remains engaged, until P is selected. The modulati ng and shift pressures will increase to
maximum and converter lock-up will be inhibited.
Following the selection of P , the only ratios available will be 2 (irrespective of forward ratio manual selection) and R .
With the vehicle at rest, the procedure to manually select is as follows:
1. 1. Select P .

2.2. Switch OFF the ignition.
3. 3. Wait 10 seconds.
4. 4. Start the engine.
5. 5. Select R (reverse will be selected).
6. 6. Select D ( 2 will be selected).
The limp-home mode will be retained until the fault is remedied or the fault code has been erased. Intermittent faults may
be cleared by cycling the ignition OFF/ON. In certain cases the component may need to be operated before the fault code is
cleared eg. a shift solenoid.
Emergency Running (mechanica l/hydraulic limp-home mode)
Should slip be detected, due to a mechanical failure or loss of pressure, the transmission will either shift to, and hold 3 or
shift to, and hold, the last gear which was known to be alright. This condition may be cleared by cycling the ignition OFF/ON
following mechanical repair.
The operator will be made aware of certain faults by a warning message on th e instrument cluster.
Data concerning OBDII related transmission failures is stored in the ECM for access via the J1962 socket.
Safety Functions
These functions are designed to safeguard against inappropriate actions by the operator as well as system malfunctions.
The electrical and diagnostic system has been designed such that system integrity is protected at all times, the safety
concept being based on th e following three points.
1. 1. The hydraulic system has 'fail-safe' characteristics regardin g its electrical operation, such that should the power
supply be lost to the electro-hydraulic actuators the transmission will initiate a limp-home mode.
2. 2. Recognition of critical shift operation by monitoring the last element in the signal path, ie the solenoid valve, and
checking by means of redundant me asured variables relative to engine, transmission and road speeds.
3. 3. Each time the vehicle is started there is a check on the entire safety hardware and the associated program parts
and signal paths. A malfunction in this part of the system, or triggering of the safety circuit, is communicated to
the operator by a warning messag e on the instrument cluster.
CAUTION: Do not engage R or P with the vehicle in motion.
Should R be engaged with the vehicle in forward motion, the transmission will default to neutral until either the vehicle
speed decreases to 4 mph or D is selected.
Towing
The vehicle may be towed provided that:
Selector in position N Speed < 50 kph Distance < 50 km
System Functions
'J' Gate Layout

Range Selection
The 'J' gate selector lever is connected to the transmission via a cable which operates the transmission selector shaft
between positions P R N D only. The shift lever disconnects from the cable when the lever is moved across the gate from D
to 4 .
Movement of the lever between P R N D manu ally controls the flow of transmission fluid, the TCM having control of the
forward gear selected in D .
Movement of the lever to 4 , 3 and 2 positions does not manu ally modify the fluid flow, the TCM detects these positions
using the DLS and controls the ratios electronically by energizing solenoids.
Shift Point Control
The gearshift points are controlled by the TCM, as a function of the output speed, engine load, engine speed, selector
position and shift program selected. The operator has control over the shift points via the shift lever, throttle pedal
movement, kickdown function and mode switch.
Mode Switch
This switch allows operator selection of two base shift modes; Normal and Sport; th e switch being illuminated when Sport is
selected. This function alters the values in the TCM shift point calculations.
Shift Programs
Upon encountering the following conditions, the TCM will auto matically modify the Normal or Sports shift map to enhance
the operation of the vehicle:
1. 1. Traction: When traction intervention is active.
2. 2. Hot mode: Extreme engine/transmission temperatures.
3. 3. Gradient: Under specific speeds and loads.
4. 4. Manual: Driver initiated override of the normal shif t map when the LH side of the 'J gate' is used.
Traction
When traction or stability control (engine or brake system de rived) is operational the TCM will implement the traction map
to maximize control of wheel slip.
Gradient
The gradient function is intended to enhance vehicle drivea bility when climbing a gradient or towing. The TCM will
implement the function when increased driving resistance is de tected, and provides enhanced driveability, additional cooling

and/or increased performance as appropriate.
Serial Communications Interfaces
Controller Area Network (CAN)
The TCM is an integral part of the CAN system which facilita tes the interchange of real-time data between control modules
and sensors; refer to 303-14 fo r a full description of CAN.
