be driven (in a “failure” mode) in the event of a failure of the
electronic control system or in situations that the transmission

MECHANIC SYSTEM
The primary mechanical components of the transaxle are as
follows:
• Three multi-disc drive clutches
• Two multi-plate holding clutches
• Four hydraulic accumulators
• Two planetary gear trains
• hydraulic oil pump
• valve body
• Solenoid assembly

Based on the information received from these various inputs,
the TCM determines the appropriate programming and shift

direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of direct TCM outputs are:
• Transmission control relay
• Solenoids (L/R, 2/4, OD and UD)
• Vehicle speed (at PCM)
• Torque reduction request (to PCM)
Some examples of indirect TCM outputs are:
• Transmission temperature (to PCM)
• PRNDL position (to BCM)
• Autostick indication (to BCM)
In addition to the verification of entries and the con controlling
the outputs, the TCM has other important functions and
responsibilities:
• Storage and maintenance of clutch volume indices (CVI)
• Storing and selecting appropriate shift programs
• Automatic system diagnosis Fig. 3 Example of CVI calculation
• Diagnostic capabilities (with DRB III scan tool)
Gear ratios can be determined by using the DRB III scan tool

DRIVE AND TRANSMISSION SPEED


SENSORS
DESCRIPTION
Drive and transmission speed sensors are bifilar magnetic
pickup devices that generate AC signals when rotation occurs.
They are threaded to the transaxle case and are considered
primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).

FUNCTIONING
The drive speed sensor provides information about the
speed at which the drive shaft rotates. When the teeth of the
drive clutch hub pass the sen coil sor, an AC voltage is

Since there are four switches, there are 16 possible

recognized as “between shift” codes. As a result, six codes are
obtained that should never be produced.

DIFFERENTIAL REPAIR
NOTE: The differential is repaired as an assembly. The only
serviceable parts inside the differential are the differential
bearing cups and cones. If a fault occurs in which If you
want another part, you must replace the differential
assembly along with the transfer shaft.
