Instruction for automatic transmission
1. M88 4-speed automatic transmission is equipped with the hydraulic torque converter and electric control system with locking.
When keep the stable forward status, the hydraulic torque converter can be locked automatically when the engine operates in low
speed, then reduce the unnecessary slide.
Figure 1.1 Electric automatic transmission control system
Figure 1.2 M88 4 speeds automatic transmission appearance figure (applied to 2 wheels driving)
2. The main advantage of the transmission is the application of transmission control unit (TCU). The control unit is the control
system based on the microprocessor system.. TCU control the shifting sensing and realize the Gear position shifting through the
signal of opening degree of throttle position, opening frequency of throttle position, engine speed, vehicle speed, transmission oil
temperature, gear position, mode selection and forced Gear reduction application.
3. TCU drives a variable pressure regulating solenoid valve to control three regulation valves and control the feeling of shifting.
Different transmission fluid temperatures are taken as one the main parameters to control the output pressure of the solenoid
valve, so as to keep consistent feeling of shifting within the normal operation scope.
4. The planning of shifting is very flexible. According to the car model, the different shifting plan is stored in the same TCU.
Generally speaking, the “economical mode” can increase the economical efficiency of the fuel and the driving performance of the
car to the maximum limit. The “dynamic mode” can bring into full play the drive performance of the car to the maximum limit. The
“winter mode” can make the car starting from shift 2.

control system
General
The transmission has two sets of control system, a electric control system and a hydraulic control system. The electric control
system monitors the vehicle parameter and adjusts the transmission performance; the hydraulic control system executes the
command of electric control system.
Electric control system
The electric control system consists of the sensor, TCU and 7 solenoid valves. TCU read in the data and make the output under the
control of software based on the value stored in Read Only Memory (ROM).
TCU controls the hydraulic control system and the control is realized through the valve and pump assembly. The system includes
7 solenoid valves, in which 6 valves are used to control the line pressure, operate the shift valve and hydraulic torque converter lock
clutch and switch on and off two regulating valves (Two regulating valves control the shift feel). The seventh solenoid valve is the
pressure regulating solenoid valve (VPS) which controls the shift feel with other three regulating valves. Figure 3.1 is the typical TCU
control system plan.
The figure includes all elements of electric control system involved in the section.

Figure 3.9 manual-operated valve 3.
1-2 shift valve (refer to Figure 3.10) has two position status. It must be in the position (2, 3, 4) for the convenience of raising
gear in 1
st-Gear. It is using for all 1-2 and 2-1 shift.
Through the power supply of S1 and (or ) S2, the 1-2 shift valve can acquire its On/Off status.
During 1-2 shift period, drive the transmission fluid from manual-operated valve to the 2
nd-Gear loop. During the shifting form
2 to 1, the brake belt is engaged and drain the oil through the 1-2 Gear shift valve.
When in 1
st-gear position, the 1-2 gear shift valve operates with the 3-4gear shift valve (described as follows) combinedly to
separate the clutch C4; if in 2
nd-Gear position, engage the clutch C4. When select the manual Gear-1, the clutch C4 engages with
the rear brake belt (B2).

In this condition, the TCU control solenoid valve S1 and S2 are closed. The reverse lock valve is affected by the pressure form
S1-S2 transmission fluid; connect the line pressure to loop B2. The transmission fluid flows to servo internal and external
attachment area, the B2 is engaged.
When none of above condition is met, TCU control the solenoid valve S1 and S2 to be opened. The pressure of S1-S2 is
released and the spring control valve body is in locking status at the same. In this condition, the B2 attachment is prohibited.
The feature can realize the protection for transmission by controlling the B2 in high speed and providing the reverse-gear
locking.
If the transmission is in failure mode, then the rear brake belt will be attached in P-Gear, R-Gear and N-Gear.

Power transmission system
The power transmission system includes:
Torque converter equipped with single lock clutch.
4 multi-plate clutch assemblies
2 brake belts
2 one-way clutches
Planetary gear assembly
parking mechanism
A traditional planetary gear assembly composed by six pinions is used in four-speed transmission. It realizes the 4 Gear power
transmission through the drive gear bracket.
So, the cross arrangement is the main arranging method. In the box, there are four subassemblies, shown as follows:
Gear bank central support
C1-C2-C3-clutch C4 subassembly
Pump assembly
Valve assembly
One piece or one set of optional shim is located between the input shaft flange and center of stator support shaft axle of and used
to control the end flotation of transmission. The structure arrangement allows the inspection for the subassembly during the
product manufacturing period.
For description of power transmission system refer to table 4.1 and Figure 4.1:
When the clutch C2 is engaged and 1-2 one-way clutch is engaged, the gear is in 2nd-Gear at this time. During the 1-2 shifting
process, B1 brake belt is combined and the 1-2 one-way clutch is separated (OWC). During the 2-3 shifting period, the clutch
C1 is engaged and the B1brake belt is released. During the 3-4 shifting period, B1brake belt is engaged and 3-4 one-way clutch
is released. For reverse gear, the clutch C3 and B2brake belt is engaged.
When the gear position is in manual 1st, 2
nd and 3rd gear position, the engagement of the clutch C4 can provide the brake of
engine. Additionally, in the drive scope of 2
nd and 3rd Gear, the engagement of clutch C4 can eliminate the unfavorable freewheel
inertia. In the scope of manual 1
st-Gear, the low speed shifting is realized by the engagement of B2brake belt.
The front and rear servo has the figure surface design which requires the accurate friction and need not the secondary regulating
valve. When use the transmission fluid with new static factor, the design of the friction unit can meet the requirement that need
low shifting energy and high static holding force. The transmission uses the non-asbestos friction material.
