Input shaft:
The transmission input shaft rotates clockwise.
Clutch C2 (1) connects the transmission input shaft
with the sun gear. The sun gear rotates clockwise.
The rear planetary gear set rotates
counterclockwise. The front larger planetary gear
set rotates counterclockwise with the rear planetary
gear set as a single unit. The front smaller
planetary gear set rotates clockwise.
Brake B3 (2) blocks the ring gear in
counterclockwise direction. The front and rear
planetary gear carriers are turned clockwise by the
front smaller gear. The primary idler gear rotates
counterclockwise with the front and rear planetary
gear carriers as one unit.
Output shaft:
The secondary idler gear rotates clockwise. The
front annular gear rotates clockwise with the
secondary idler gear as a single unit. The front
planetary gear set rotates clockwise. The sun gear
rotates in counterclockwise direction.
Brake B5 (3) prevents rotation of the rear planetary
gear carrier. The rear annular gear rotates
clockwise. The front planetary gear carrier and the
final drive pinion rotate clockwise with the rearannular gear as one unit. The final drive rotates
counterclockwise.
Engine braking:
The power is transferred directly to the
transmission input shaft without one-way clutch
involvement. Engine braking is thus applied.
NOTE:
The clutch C2 and the brake B3 are only
activated at a speed below 7 km/h (approx. 4.35
mph) when shifting from a forward gear to the
reverse gear.
Service instructions
Towing procedure
Towing is only permitted travelling forwards, at a
maximum speed of 80 km/h and for up 80 km. The
gear selector lever must be in Neutral.
CAUTION: The vehicle must never be
towed backwards under any
circumstances.

Reset adaptation data
Adaptation values are stored in the software of the
TCM:
• Adaptation should be reset after an internalcomponent has been exchanged or the whole
transmission has been changed.
The adaptation of the transmission is reset via IDS.
Limp home mode
The TCM software contains functions which take
control of the transmission if serious faults occur.
The fault characteristic decides which strategies
are to be used.
The vehicle remains capable of restricted
operation.
The TCM strategy differentiates between four emergency modes adapted to the fault situation:

(*) As for Emergency 1 mode, the second gear will however be shifted using other solenoid valves.
Different measures are implemented, depending
on the current gear position and driving situation
when the fault occurs:
• When a fault occurs, the TCM makes it possible
for the vehicle to maintain restricted operation.
The distance travelled should be kept as short
as possible.
• Torque limitation is activated in order to protect the transaxle components.
• When the engine is restarted (ignition switched off for approx. 15 seconds), the transaxle is no
longer in limp home mode. There is no longer
a fault indication on the instrument cluster, and
the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) is off.
However, the fault remains stored in the TCM.
If the fault is still present, limp home mode is
reactivated.
• If limp home mode is reactivated after the ignition is switched on, the option exists in select-shift mode to pull away in 2nd gear. This
is the case unless the transaxle is in emergency
mode 4. Only 4th gear and the reverse gear are
available in this mode.

The hydraulic pressure is distributed to the
individual clutches and brakes in the valve body.
The hydraulic paths and the hydraulic pressure are
controlled electronically via three PWM solenoid
valves and five shift solenoid valves.
The shift solenoid valves S1-S5 are either in the
'open' or 'closed' state.
The control valves (SLT and SLS) regulate the
hydraulic pressure in accordance with the duty
cycle of the electrical PWM signal. The controlled
hydraulic pressure enables smooth shifting or the
generation of a defined slip through actuation of
the relevant clutches and brakes. The control valve (SLU) regulates the hydraulic
pressure in accordance with the duty cycle of the
electrical PWM signal. It controls the torque
converter clutch. The PWM control achieves
smooth engagement of the gears.
The shift timing is calculated by the TCM using the
accelerator pedal position and vehicle speed.
Under normal conditions, the gears are shifted and
the torque converter lockup is activated at low
engines speeds in order to reduce the fuel
consumption.
If the accelerator pedal is pressed down quickly,
the TCM switches automatically into kickdown
mode.

The valve actuates the torque converter clutch as
well as the reverse gear brake (B3) and 2nd - 5th
gear brake (B2). The PWM control achieves
smooth engagement of the gears. The two brakes
are actuated in 1st and 2nd gear to guarantee
engine braking.
The valve also actuates the torque converter in
such a way that is works in three positions: 'open',
'controlled looping (slip lock-up mode)', and 'locked
(full lock-up mode)'. The hydraulic function of the
valve is linear.
In lockup mode the TCC is closed. The impeller
and the turbine of the torque converter are friction
locked. The engine torque acts directly on the
transmission input shaft. Fuel consumption is
reduced due to a reduction in the torque converter
pump losses.
In slip lock-up mode, slip in the TCC is permitted
in order to improve driving comfort. The hydraulic
pressure acting on the TCM varies in accordance
with the duty signal of the actuation signal
generated by the PWM for the TCC solenoid valve
for the TCC (SLU). The temperature of the
transmission fluid increases in slip mode.

The PWM solenoid valve for main line pressure

The TCM evaluates the accelerator pedal position
and the current engine torque.
The main line pressure is adapted proportionally
by the TCM via the PWM solenoid valve. This
measure enables judder-free gearshifts.
The PWM solenoid valve is open when
de-energized. In the case of faults and failure of
the control system, the PWM solenoid valve
remains fully open. The maximum main line

The frequency of the square-wave signal increases
with the transmission input shaft speed. The TSS
sensor picks up the speed at the housing of the
1st - 5th gear clutch (C1).
The TCM uses the information from the TSS sensor
to determine the following parameters:
• Calculation of the torque reduction that needs to be requested by the PCM during shifting.
• Comparison of engine speed with transmission input shaft speed for calculation of torque
converter slip.
• Calculation of the shift points.
• Calculation of the engaging and disengaging point for the TCC (lock-up function).
• Calculation of the current gear ratios by comparison of the OSS sensor signal.
