DESCRIPTION
Transaxle has 4-speeds with lock-up (overdrive). It is an Electronically Controlled Automatic Transmission (EC-AT) which combines mechanical and electronic systems for control. Shift functions and lock-up timing are controlled by a Powertrain Control Module Transaxle (PCMT), located under center of dash forward of center console. The PCM transaxle receives signals (inputs) from sensors and maintains control (outputs) of solenoid valves, controlling shift speeds. On some 1993 models PCMT is part of Powertrain Control Module Engine (PCME).
