WARNING: WHEN HANDLING AN UNDEPLOYED
AIR BAG MODULE DURING SERVICING OF THE
STEERING COLUMN THE FOLLOWING PRECAU-
TIONS SHOULD BE OBSERVED. AT NO TIME
SHOULD ANY SOURCE OF ELECTRICITY BE PER-
MITTED NEAR THE INFLATOR ON THE BACK OF
THE AIR BAG MODULE. WHEN CARRYING A LIVE
MODULE, THE TRIM COVER SHOULD BE POINTED
AWAY FROM THE BODY TO MINIMIZE INJURY IF
MODULE ACCIDENTLY DEPLOYS. IF AIR BAG MOD-
ULE IS PLACED ON A BENCH OR OTHER SUR-
FACE, PLASTIC COVER SHOULD BE FACE UP TO
MINIMIZE MOVEMENT IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL
DEPLOYMENT.

nector, located at right side of the ASDM module.
²Turn ignition key to ON position. Exit vehicle
with the DRB II. Install the latest version of the
proper diagnostic cartridge into the DRB II.
²Ensuring that their are no occupants in the
vehicle, connect negative cable to negative post of the
battery.
²Using the DRB II read and record active fault
codes. Also read and record any stored fault codes.
Refer to the Passive Restraint Diagnostic Test Man-
ual if any faults are found.
²Erase stored faults if there are no active fault
codes. If problems remain, fault codes will not erase.
²From the passenger side of the vehicle, turn
ignition key to OFF and then ON observing instru-
ment cluster air bag lamp. It should go on for six to
eight seconds, then go out. This will indicate that the
air bag system is functioning normally.
(20)If air bag warning lamp fails to light,
blinks on and off or goes on and stays on, there
is an air bag system malfunction.Refer to the
Passive Restraint Diagnostic Test Manual to diag-
nose the system malfunction.
(21) Test the operation of the horn, lights and any
other functions that are steering column operated. If
applicable reset the radio and the clock.
(22) Road test vehicle to ensure proper operation
of the steering system and the speed control system.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH
A torque converter clutch is standard on all vehi-
cles. The torque converter clutch is activated only in
direct drive and is controlled by the engine electron-
ics. A solenoid on the valve body, is powered by the
powertrain control module to activate the torque con-
verter clutch.
HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic control system makes the transaxle
fully automatic, and has four important functions to
perform. The components of any automatic control
system may be grouped into the following basic
groups:
²Pressure supply system
²Pressure regulating valves
²Flow control valves
²Clutches
²Band servos
Taking each of these basic groups or systems in
turn, the control system may be described as follows:
PRESSURE SUPPLY SYSTEM
The pressure supply system consists of an oil pump
driven by the engine through the torque converter.
The single pump furnishes pressure for all hydraulic
and lubrication requirements.Oil pump housing
assemblies are available with preselected pump
gears.
PRESSURE REGULATING VALVES
The pressure regulating valve controls line pres-
sure dependent on throttle opening. The governor
valve transmits regulated pressure to the valve body
(in conjunction with vehicle speed) to control upshift
and downshift.
The throttle valve transmits regulated pressure to
the transaxle (dependent on throttle position) to con-
trol upshift and downshift.
FLOW CONTROL VALVES
The manual valve provides the different transaxle
drive ranges selected by the vehicle operator.
The 1-2 shift valve automatically shifts the tran-
saxle from first to second or from second to first,
depending on the vehicle operation.
The 2-3 shift valve automatically shifts the tran-
saxle from second to third or from third to second
depending on the vehicle operation.The kickdown valve makes possible a forced down-
shift from third to second, second to first, or third to
first (depending on vehicle speed). This can be done
by depressing the accelerator pedal past the detent
feel near wide open throttle.
The shuttle valve has two separate functions and
performs each independently of the other. The first is
providing fast release of the kickdown band, and
smooth front clutch engagement when a lift-foot
upshift from second to third is made. The second
function is to regulate the application of the kick-
down servo and band when making third±to±second
kickdown.
The bypass valve provides for smooth application
of the kickdown band on 1-2 upshifts.
The torque converter clutch solenoid allows for the
electronic control of the torque converter clutch. It
also disengages the torque converter at closed throt-
tle. This is done during engine warm-up and part-
throttle acceleration.
The switch valve directs oil to apply the torque
converter clutch in one position. The switch valve
releases the torque converter clutch in the other posi-
tion.
CLUTCHES, BAND SERVOS, AND ACCUMULATOR
The front and rear clutch pistons, and both servo
pistons, are moved hydraulically to engage the
clutches and apply the bands. The pistons are
released by spring tension when hydraulic pressure
is released. On the 2-3 upshift, the kickdown servo
piston is released by spring tension and hydraulic
pressure.
The accumulator controls the hydraulic pressure
on the apply±side of the kickdown servo during the
1-2 upshift; thereby cushioning the kickdown band
application at any throttle position.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER/IGNITION
INTERLOCK
The Shifter/Ignition Interlock, is a mechanical
cable operated system (Fig. 1). It interconnects the
automatic transmission floor±mounted shifter to the
steering column ignition switch. The interlock system
locks the floor±mounted shift lever into the PARK
position whenever the ignition switch is in the LOCK
or ACCESSORY position. When the key is in the
OFF or RUN position, the shifter is unlocked and
will move into any position. Also the interlock system
prevents the ignition switch from being turned to
LOCK or ACCESSORY position, unless shifter is in
the PARK position.
GEARSHIFT AND PARKING LOCK CONTROLS
The transaxle is controlled by alever typegear-
shift incorporated within the console. The control has

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK
(BTSI) SYSTEM
The Brake Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI)
System, is a cable and solenoid operated system. It
interconnects the automatic transmission floor
mounted shifter to the steering column ignition
switch. The BTSI system locks the shifter into the
PARK position. The BTSI system is engaged when-
ever the ignition switch is in the LOCK or ACCES-
SORY position.
An additional electrically activated feature will
prevent shifting out of the PARK position unless the
brake pedal is depressed at least one-half an inch. A
solenoid integrated with the BTSI cable assembly
(Fig. 1) is energized when the ignition switch is in
the RUN position. When the key is in the RUN posi-
tion and the brake pedal is depressed, the shifter is
unlocked and will move into any position. The BTSI
system also prevents the ignition switch from being
turned to the LOCK or ACCESSORY position, unless
the shifter is fully locked into the PARK position.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK
(BTSI) SYSTEM
If the ignition switch cannot be turned to the
LOCK position, with the shifter in PARK and the
brake pedal depressed, an adjustment of the Brake
Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI) System may be
required. To adjust the Brake Transmission Shift
Interlock (BTSI) System, follow the procedure in the
Adjustment section of this group.
