5A-30 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Solenoid Valve Symbols (On/off Solenoids)
The solenoid symbol shown adjacent to each solenoid on the
hydraulic system schematics indicates the state of the oil flow
through the solenoid valve with the power On or 0ff. Refer to
figure 3.6 for the On/off operational details of NO solenoidvalves. Normally Open (NO) Solenoid POWER ON
Line 500 port is closed. The output port is open to exhaust at the solenoid valve. POWER OFF
The exhaust port is closed. The output port is open to line 500,Figure 3.6- Normally Open (NO) Symbols
Variable Pressure Solenoid Multiplexing System
Friction element shifting pressures are controlled by the variable pressure solenoid (VPS).
Line pressure is completely independent of shift pressure and is a function of throttle position, gear state and enginespeed.
S5 is a proportional or variable pressure solenoid that provides the signal pressure to the clutch and band regulator
valves thereby controlling shift pressures.
VPS pressure is multiplexed to the clutch regulator valve, the band regulator valve and the converter clutch regulator
valve during automatic gearshifts.
A variable pressure solenoid produces a hydraulic pressure inversely proportional to the current applied. During a
gearshift the TCU applies a progressively increasing or decreasing (ramped) current to the solenoid. Current applied will vary between a minimum of 200 mA and a maximum of 1000 mA, Increasing current decreases output (55)
pressure. Decreasing current increases output (55) pressure.
Line 500 pressure, (approximately 440 to 560 kPa), is the reference pressure for the VPS, and the VPS outputpressure is always below line 500 pressure.
When the VPS is at standby, that is no gearshift is taking place, the VPS current is set to 200 mA giving maximum output pressure.
Under steady state conditions the band and clutch regulator valve solenoids are switched off. This applies full Line
500 pressure to the plunger and because Line 500 pressure is always greater than S5 pressure it squeezes the S5
oil out between the regulator valve and the plunger. The friction elements are then fed oil pressure equal to Line 500multiplied by the amplification ratio.
When a shift is initiated the required On/off solenoid is switched on cutting the supply of Line 500 to the plunger.
At the same time the VPS pressure is reduced to the ramp start value and assumes control of the regulator valve by
pushing the plunger away from the valve. The VPS then carries out the required pressure ramp and the timed shift is
completed by switching Off the On/off solenoid and returning the VPS to the standby pressure.
This system enables either the band or clutch or both to be electrically controlled for each gearshift. Mode Indicator Light
Depending on the application, the mode indicator light may be used to indicate the mode that has been selected or
if an overheat condition exists. The mode indicator light is usually located on the instrument cluster. Communication Systems CAN
The controller area network (CAN) connects various control modules by using a twisted pair of wires, to share
common information. This results in a reduction of sensors and wiring. Typical applications include using the engine
controller to obtain the actual engine speed and throttle position, and adding these to the network. The ABS controller
(if fitted) can be used to obtain the road speed signal. This information is then available to the TCU without anyadditional sensors.

5A-64 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Default Transmission Operating Modes
The TCU relies on accurate information from its inputs and complete control of its outputs to effectively control the
transmission. To ensure that it has both valid inputs and functioning outputs, the TCU carries out both hardware and
software fault detection routines. The TCU will respond to any faults detected by adopting the operating modes which
are detailed below.
The following symptoms of faults are the most obvious results of each fault under ‘normal ’ conditions.
There is always the possibility that a fault may not be detected. If undetected fault conditions are present, the
operation of the transmission is difficult to predict.
1 Throttle Fault
All shifts will occur as if a nominal throttle (approx. 44%) were applied for shift scheduling.
All shifts will be firm as full throttle and hence high engine torque is assumed.
The torque converter will be unlocked at all times.
All downshifts initiated by the shift lever will occur as though they were ‘automatic ’ shifts. That is the engine
braking effect will not occur until near the end of the shift.
Line pressure will always stay high (solenoid 6 OFF) to cope with assumed high throttle/torque.
If a fault is undetected, the percent throttle is most likely to be interpreted as higher than actual, resulting in late
upshifts, early downshifts, firm shifting and a harsh 3-1 shift when stopping.
2 Throttle Not Learnt Fault
The transmission operates from default throttle calibration values which results in the evaluation of the throttle being
higher (more open) than it is. There(ore at zero throttle settings, the transmission may calculate that sufficient throttle
opening is present to justify high line pressure and switch solenoid 6 to OFF. Other symptoms are:
a. late upshifts and
b. lock-up maintained at zero throttle when the vehicle speed is sufficiently high.
3 Engine Speed Fault All shifts will be firm because an engine speed corresponding to peak engine torques is assumed.
If a fault is undetected, the engine speed is likely to be interpreted as stalled resulting in soft shifting possibly with an end of shift bump.
4 Vehicle Speed Sensor Fault
All shifts will be controlled by the shift lever with skip downshifts disabled and downshifts only allowed if the
engine speed is low. Fourth gear will be inhibited.
The torque converter will be unlocked at all times.
If a fault is undetected, the vehicle is likely to be interpreted as being stationary resulting in first gear operation at all
times. Note that speedometer transducer faults are likely to cause the vehicle ’s speedometer to become inoperative.
5 Gear Lever Fault (Inhibitor/PRNDL Switch) The gear lever is assumed to be in the Drive position.
The transmission is limited to 2nd,3rd, and R gears only.
The rear band will apply at all times when the lever is shifted to P, R or N. (B2 inhibition and reverse lockout
protection is disabled.)
The torque converter will be unlocked at all times.
Manually (gear lever) initiated downshifts will not be available.
If a fault is undetected, the gear lever position is likely to be interpreted as being higher than actual. Where Park is the
highest position and Manual 1 is the lowest, the result being the availability of higher gears than selected by the gear
lever.
