Hydraulic Control (cont'dl
Regulator Valve
The regulator valve maintains a constant hydraulic pressure from the ATF pump to the hydraulic control system, whitealso furnishing fluid to the lubricating system and torque converter. The fluid from the ATF pump flows through B and 8,.The regulator valve has a valve orifice. The fluid entering from B flows through the orifice to the A cavity. This pressure ofthe A cavity pushes the regulator valve to the right side, and this movement of the regulator valve uncovers the fluid portto the torque converter and the relief valve. The fluid flows out to the torque converter, and the relief valve and regulatorvalve moves to the left side. According to the level of the hydraulic pressure through B, the position of the regutator vatvechanges and the amount of the fluid from B' through D and c also changes. This operation is continued. maantaining theline pressure,

Stator Roaction Hydraulic Prossur6 Control
Hydraulic pressure increases according to torque, are performed by the regulator valve using the stator torque reaction.The stator shaft is splined with the stator in the torque converter, and its arm end contacts the regulator sprang cap. whenthe vehicle is accelerating or climbing (Torque Convert€r Range), the stator torque reaction acts on the stator shaft, andthe stator arm pushes the regulator spring cap in the direction of the arrow in proponion to the reaction. Jne stator reac-tion spring compresses, and th€ reoulator valve moves to increase the line pressure which is regulated by the regulatorvalve. The line pressure reaches its maximum when the stator torque reaction reaches its maximum.

@ Position
As the engine turns, the ATF pump also starts to operate, Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is drawn from (99) and dis-
charged into (1). Then, ATF flowing from the ATF pump becomes the line pressure (1). The line pressure (1) is regulated
by the regulator valve. The torque conv€rter inlet pressure (92) enters (94) of the torque converter through the lock-up
shift valve and discharges into (901. The torque converter ch€ck valve prevents the torque converter pressure from rising'
Under this condition, the hydraulic pressure is not applied to the clutches'

E! or l8! Position
1. lst Gear
The flow of fluid through the torque converter circuit is same as in E position, The line pressure tlows to the manual
valve and the modulator valve. The line pressure changes to the modulator pr€ssure (6) at the modulator valve and to
the line pressure (4) at the manual valve. The modulator pressure (61 flows to the lsft end of the 1-2 shift valve and the
3-4 shift valve because shift control solenoid valve A is turned OFF and B is turned ON by the PCM. The 1-2 shift valve
is moved to the right side. The line pressure (4) changes to the lst clutch pressure (10) at the 1-2 shift valve and the
oritice. The lst clutch pressure (10) is applied to the 1st clutch and tho 1st accumulator; consquently, the vehicle will
move as the engine power is transmitted.

The flow of fluid through the torque convefter circuit is the same as in E position The line pressure (1) changes to the
line pressure (3) and flows to the l-2 shift valve. The iine pressure (3) changes to the line pressure (3') at the 'l-2 shift valve
and flows to the servo valve. The servo valve is moved to the right side (Reverse range position) and uncovers the port to
allow line pressure {3") to the manual valve, The line pressure {3') from the 1-2 shift valve flows through the servo valve to
the manual valve and changes the 4th clutch pressure (40). The 4th clutch pressure (40) is applied to the 4th clutch, and
the 4th clutch is engaged,
Reverse Inhibitor Control
When the E position is selected while the vehicle is moving forward at spe€ds over 6 mph (10 km/h)' the PCM outputs the
1st speed signal to shift control solenoid valves A and B; shift control solenoid valve A is turned oFF, shift control solenoid
valve B is turned ON. The 1-2 shift valve is moved to the right side and covers the port to stop line pressure (3') to the
servo valve. The line pressure (3') is not applied to the servo valve, and the 4th clutch pressure (40) is not applied to the
4th clutch, as a result, power is not transmitted to the reverse direction'

Lock-up System
Lock-up Clutch

with the lock-up clutch on, the fluid in the chamber between the torque converter cover and the lock-up piston is drained
off, and the converter fluid exerts pressure through the piston against the torque converter cover, As a result, the conven-
er turbine is locked to the convefter cover. The effect is to bypass the converter, thereby placing the vehicle in direct drive

In B.rl position, in 3rd and 4th, and lDl_- position in 3rd.pressurized fluid is drajned from the back of the torqueconverter through a fluid passage. causing the lock-uppiston to be held against the torque convener cover. Asthis takes place, the mainshaft rotates at the same speedas the engine crankshaft, Together with the hydrauliccontrol, the PCM optimized the timing of the lock_upsystem. Under certain conditions, the lock_up clutch isapplied during deceleration, in 3rd and 4th gear.
The lock-up system controls the range of lock_up accord_ing to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B. and thelinear solenoid. When lock-up control solenoid valves Aand B activate, modulator pressure changes. Lock_upcontrol solenoid valves A and B and the linear solenoidare mounted on the outside of the torque converterhousing. and are controlled by the pclvl.
