Torque Converter Lockup PWM Solenoid Valve, Location

In the supporting body of the electrical control unit (Y3/6) and pressed against the valve housing of the
shift plate (2a) by means of a leaf spring (2c). See Fig. 62
.
Torque Converter Lockup PWM Solenoid Valve, Task

The PWM solenoid valve for the torque converter lockup (Y3/6y6) controls the pressure for the torque
converter lockup clutch.

Structure - The torque converter lockup PWM solenoid valve (Y3/6y6) is sealed off to the valve body of the
shift plate (2a) by an O-ring (34) and a seal (arrow). See Fig. 63
. The contact springs (32) on the PWM
converter lockup solenoid valve (Y3/6y6) engage in a slot in the conductor tracks (33). The force of the contact
spring (32) ensures safe contacts.

Modulating Pressure Regulating Solenoid Valve, Location

In the supporting body of the electrical control unit (Y3/6) and pressed against the valve housing of the
shift plate (2a) by means of a leaf spring. See Fig. 64
.
Modulating Pressure Regulating Solenoid Valve, Task

To control the modulating pressure depending on the constantly changing operating conditions such as
load/gear changes.
Modulating Pressure Regulating Solenoid Valve, Design

See MODULATING PRESSURE REGULATING SOLENOID VALVE, DESIGN
.
Modulating Pressure Regulating Solenoid Valve, Function

The modulating pressure regulating solenoid valve (Y3/6y1) assigns a proportional pressure to the current
which is controlled by the ETC control module (N15/3) according to the load.
