ZF 4 HP 24 E TRANSMISSION, GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ZF Transmission covered in this section comprises a hydrodynamic torque converter, four speed gear train and

Fig. 1 ZF 4 HP 24 E Transmission
The automatic transmission provides six gearshift positions:
0 Position 'P': Park - in this position the driven wheels are mechanically locked at the transmission.
0 Position 'R': Reverse - reverse gear selected.
0 Position 'N': Neutral -engine disconnected from drive-line and wheels.
0 Position 'D': Drive - all four speed ranges are selected automatically with lock-up available in top gear only.
0 Position '3': automatic selection of the lowest three speed ranges only.
0 Position '2': automatic selection of the lowest two speed ranges only, transmission is prevented from shifting
up to the third and top speed ranges.
Immediate selection of a lower ratio is also available by 'kick
-down' (pressing the accelerator down beyond the normal
full throttle position) for example when overtaking.
2.1.1 Torque Converter
The torque converter serves two main functions: it acts as a fluid coupling between engine and transmission geartrain
and it provides multiplication of engine torque when required.
The torque converter consists of an impeller, a turbine and a stator which is mounted on a one
-way clutch. The
converter cover is fixed to the impeller to seal the three elements within a common housing forming a closed circuit
through which oil flows when the transmission is in operation. The impeller is therefore connected to the engine and
rotates at engine speed when the engine is operating.
Torque multiplication is
at its greatest when the vehicle is driven away from standstill. The stator bears against the
housing through its one-way clutch and deflects the oil so that the flow is accelerated. As road speed builds up, the
impeller and turbine wheels turn at almost the same speed, so that the stator ceases to accelerate the oil flow and in- stead is disengaged from the housing and turns freely in the flow of oil. At this stage, the torque converter acts as a
fluid coupling.
Issue 1 August 1994 39

ZF Automatic Transmissions Service Manual
The torque converter acts in all four forward gears and in reverse. The converter lock-up clutch closes in 4th gear at
a point depending on road speed and accelerator position; engine power is then transmitted
by purely mechanical
means.
A low
-loss oil pump in the front of the transmission housing supplies the converter, the automatic gear shift and the
lubrication circuit; oil is drawn from a sump in the bottom of the gear train housing through a filter. The pump drive
gear is keyed to the converter impeller hub and therefore turns when the engine is running, thereby pressurizing the
oil.
2.1.2 Four-speed Epicyclic Gear Train
The torque converter drives a mechanical epicyclic gear train providing four forward ratios and reverse. Individual ra-
tios are obtained by coupling together the various parts of the gear train by means of solenoid-operated, hydraulically
actuated multi-disc clutches and brakes; built in freewheels permit gear shifts without any interruption of the power
flow.
For information on the operation of the solenoids, clutches, brakes and freewheels, refer to the table below and the
schematic diagrams shown overleaf.
A parking lock pawl is provided at the rear of the gear train, operating on a toothed wheel attached to the output shaft;
the parking lock is operated from the selector (position
'P) by actuator rod.
An electro
-magnetic sensor detects output shaft revolutions by means of a toothed disc attached to the shaft; one rev- olution of the shaft is equal to 36 pulses. The electrical signal from the sensor is passed, via a screened cable, to the
TCM.

2.1.3 Operation Of Gear Train Clutches
Operation of the gear train clutches to provide the five gear ratios is as follows:
1st Gear
Clutches 'A' and 'E' are engaged.
The front planet gear carrier of gear set
'9' is locked against
the housing of through freewheel '10' when the engine is
pulling, but is over
-run when the engine is coasting.
Epicyclic gear set
'10' rotates as a solid block with the second
planet set.
2nd Gear
Freewheel '15' over-runs.
Clutches
'Cl' and 'C' lock the sun gear to the housing.
* Clutches 'A','Cl','C' and 'E' are engaged.
3rd Gear
Clutches 'A','B','C' and 'E' are engaged.
Freewheels '14' and '15' are over
-run.
Epicyclicgearsets'9'and'lO'rotateasa solid blockat a ratio
of 1:l.
4th Gear
Clutches 'A','B','C' and 'F' are engaged.
Freewheels
'14','15' and '16' are over-run.
Epicyclic gear set
'9' rotates as a solid block.
The hollow shaft with the sun wheel of epicyclic gear set '10'
is
locked.
Above a predetermined road speed, lock-up clutch '2' locks
torque converter '3' solid to prevent slip.

2.1.6 Transmission Rotary Switch
This switch is located on a square extension of the transmission selector shaft and is linked to the shift lever via the
selector cable. The switch comprises a selector bar which moves across a series of copper segments located on the
switch quadrant. The copper segments are set out in seven bands, each band providing an electrical output or com
- bination of outputs to the TCM.
The electrical outputs to the TCM are in the form of a three
-digit code which takes up three of the seven bands of the
quadrant; the remaining four bands are used for reverse, ground and start inhibit.
2.1.7 Decoder Module
The decoder module, located on the right hand side of the J-gate assembly, is used to translate the three-digit codes
from the rotary transmission switch into single-line functions to feed the illumination module and to provide the fol-
lowing information:
. Cruise control, ie when cruise control can or cannot be engaged.
. Indication when the vehicle is not in 'P' Park.
. Provide the ECM with a Park/ Neutral signal.
2.1.8 Performance Mode Switch
This switch, located on the shift lever surround, provides two alternative shift patterns:
. 'Normal Mode' -for everyday use,
. 'Sport Mode'- gear changes take place at higher road speeds in order to enhance performance.
Note: Torque converter 'lock-up' occurs in fourth gear in each mode.
2. I. 9 'Kick-down' Mechanism
'Kick-down' is activated by the final travel of the accelerator pedal which contacts a floor-mounted switch located be- hind the pedal. Operation of the switch provides a signal to the TCM that a downward change is required. The switch
is adjustable to ensure that the pedal does not overtravel and stretch the cable.
2.1.10 Reverse Safefy Inhibit
If 'R' Reverse is selected when the vehicle is travelling forwards at more than 5 mile / h, solenoid valve MV2 will be
energised to prevent engagement of reverse gear.
2.1.11 Gearshift hterlock
A brake pedal /gearshift interlock is incorporated in the gear selector mechanism. The gear selector lever may only
be moved from the P - Park position if the ignition key switch is in position II and the foot brake is applied.
The ignition key cannot be removed from the ignition switch unless the shift lever is in
the 'P - Park position. Once
the ignition key has been removed, the shift lever is locked in the park position.
2.1.12 Starter Inhibit Switch
The starter inhibit switch prevents the starter motor from being operated when the shift lever is not in position 'P' - Park or position 'N' - Neutral. The switch is located in the gear selector housing.

2.1.5 Transmission Control Module (TCM)
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) is an electronic control unit located in the front passenger footwell behind
the underscuttle pad. It is electrically connected to the transmission and other components through a cable harness
and multiple pin plug.
The TCM continuously monitors the gear selected (via the rotary transmission switch), the speed of the output shaft
(by speed sensor on the output shaft) and throttle position ('kick
-down' switch). This information plus input from the
Engine Control Module (ECM) of throttle angle and engine speed and load in conjunction with a pre-programmed con- trol map, enables the most suitable gear to be selected.
The TCM, by operating solenoid valves
MVI, MV2 and MV3, controls the gear shift speed and in conjunction with the
solenoid operated pressure control valve, controls the gear shift quality. Gear shift quality on upshifts is improved by
the TCM momentarily retarding the ignition to reduce the torque input as the gear change takes place. Information
is fed to the TCM from sensors and
if any electronic component fails, the basic shift changes will be performed by the
hydro-mechanical system, ie Park, Reverse, Neutral, D3 or D4.
