LOCKUP CONTROL Subaru Baja I

LOCKUP CONTROL

  1. The TCM has pre-programmed lockup clutch engagement and disengagement conditions for each gear and shift pattern. The engagement and disengagement conditions are defined in terms of the throttle valve position and vehicle speed.
  2. The TCM controls the operation of the lockup clutch by means of the duty solenoid which in turn controls the lockup control valve as described below

The line pressure which engages shift clutches to create 1st to 4th speeds is controlled by the TCM to meet varying operating conditions.

During gear shifting, the TCM decreases the line pressure to a level that matches the selected gear in order to minimize shifting shock loads.

During gear shifting, the TCM controls the line pressure as follows

  1. The TCM receives signals such as throttle position signal and accelerator pedal speed signal. Based on these input signals, it issues a control signal to the line pressure duty solenoid.
  2. The pressure from the line pressure duty solenoid (line pressure duty pressure) is converted by the pressure modifier valve into a modifier pressure, and the modifier pressure is applied to the pressure regulator valve.
  3. The pressure regulator valve adjusts the oil-pump-generated line pressure according to the modifier pressure to make the line pressure matched to the driving condition.

The line pressure which engages shift clutches to create 1st to 4th speeds is controlled by the TCM to meet varying operating conditions.

  1. The TCM receives signals such as throttle position signal and accelerator pedal speed signal. Based on these input signals, it issues a control signal to the line pressure linear solenoid.
  2. The pressure from the line pressure duty solenoid is sent to the valve where the line pressure is regulated. The valve adjusts the oil-pump-generated line pressure to make the line pressure matched to the driving condition.
