DESCRIPTION

Automatic transaxle is a 4-speed electronically controlled transaxle. Solenoids that control shift changes and Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) lock-up are located on valve body. Solenoids are controlled by the Transmission Control Module (TCM).

TCM receives information from various input devices and uses this information to control shift solenoids for transaxle shifting, and TCC solenoid for TCC lock-up.

An Overdrive OFF (O/D OFF) switch is mounted on shift lever. When O/D OFF switch is released to ON position, transaxle will shift into 4th gear when shift lever is in "D" position. O/D OFF light on combination meter should not be illuminated. When O/D OFF switch is depressed to OFF position, transaxle will not shift into 4th gear. O/D OFF light will be illuminated.
