Line pressure
(from oil pump)If the hydraulic pressure increases even more, the regulator
valve is forced further leftward and the No. 2 port opens. In this
state, the fluid flows through the port toward the suction side
of the pump and the line pressure is released. When the line
pressure drops, the chamber
(A) pressure also drops, and the
regulator valve is forced back toward the right by the spring
force, closing the No.2
port. Through this cyclical operation of
the regulator valve,the line pressure is maintained at a
constant
tevel.The line relief valve provided in the No. 1 tine opens if the line
pressure becomes so high that the regulator valve cannot deal
with it.
In this way, the hydraulic circuit is protected.
Selector Lever in ‘R”
When the manual valve is shifted to the “R” range position, the
No.4 post that was open is closed. The No. 9 port is opened
instead. This allows the
tine pressure to be directed to the #4land of the regualtor valve. As this pressure works on the area
equivalent to the difference between the diameter
04 of the
# 4 land and the diameter 05 of the # 5 land, the force pushing
the regulator valve toward the left is relatively weak as
compared with the
force’the same level of pressure would
generate when applied to the other portion of the valve.
Therefore, a pressure higher than that of previously described
forward drive ranges is required to open the No.2 port. The
higher pressure thus created serves to move the elements in
the reverse range.
The operation of the regulator valve driven by the higher
pressure is the same as that of the aforementioned forward
drive ranges.
Selector Lever in
‘P”When the manual valve is shifted to the “P” range position, the
manual valve exhaust port communicates with the line press-
ure port, and the line pressure is relieved. In this situation, no
pressure is directed to the No.4 and No.9 ports. This causes
the regulator valve to be held at its extreme right position by
the spring force, and the No.3 port to be closed. Therefore,
only fluid that passes through the orifice is directed to the
torque converter.

valveDAMPER CLUTCH CONTROL VALVE AND DAMPER
CLUTCH CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
Damper Clutch Control Valve
The damper clutch control valve is installed within the lower
valve body; it functions to regulate the hydraulic pressure
acting upon the damper clutch (incorporated within thetorqueconverter).
Damper Clutch Control Solenoid Valve
The damper clutch control solenoid valve is duty-controlled by
the signals from the transaxle control unit; this valve functions
to convert electric signals to hydraulic pressure.
Operation
(1) Because reducing pressure is applied to the
23rd line and
line
23a when the damper clutch is released, the sum of
the hydraulic pressure acting on the
# 1 land plus the spring
force overcomes the hydraulic pressure applied to the
#5land and
#6 land surface areas, thus causing the valve to
be moved toward the right.
When this happens, the hydraulic pressure from the
torqueconverter control valve enters from the 3rd line to
the 25th line, and hydraulic pressure is supplied between
the front cover of the torque-converter and the damper
clutch.As a result, the damper clutch is not activated, and
operation is the same as that of an ordinary torque-
converter.(2) When both throttle opening and vehicle speed reached the
damper clutch activation area, the damper clutch control
solenoid valve is duty-controlled by commands from the
transaxle control unit, thereby reducing the hydraulic
pressure applied to the
# 1 land left side.
As a result, the sum of the hydraulic pressure acting on the
# 1 land plus the spring force is overcome by the hydraulic
pressure applied to the
#5 land and #6 land surface areas,
thus causing the valve to be moved toward the left.
When this happens, the hydraulic pressure from the
torque-converter control valve passes through from the
3rdline to the
26th line, and through the oil cooler, and, at the
same time, the line pressure of the 1
st line passes through
the 27th line and enters the torque-converter from the 24th
line, thus causing hydraulic pressure to be applied between
the damper clutch and the turbine, with the result that the
damper clutch is pressed against the front cover, thus
activating the damper clutch.

(which are switched ON and OFF according to the

according to the shifting gear, thus switching the oil

#2 land, the
direction of movement of the shift control valve
caused by application’of pressure between these
lands is to the left.
If the pressure is also directed to the left end of the
# 1 tand through the No. 5b port, the pressure acting
on its right end is
cancelled by this pressure and the
shift control valve is forced to the right by
thepressure applied to the
#2 land.

The purpose of this valve is to prevent shock from
occurring when shifting the select lever from “N” to
“D”. The valve supplies the rear clutch with the oilpressure regulated by the pressure control valve
only when the N-D shifting is being performed. After
the shifting is completed, the valve is switched over
to allow the line pressure to be supplied to the rear
clutch.
Selector Lever in ‘N”
When the manual valve is shifted to the “N” rangeposition, the line pressure from the oil pump is
directed to the N-D control valve through the No.4line. As the
#2 land has a slightly larger area to
which pressure is applied than that of the #3 land of
the N-D control valve, the movement of the valve
caused by the line pressure is toward the left, whichcloses the
No.5 port.
