Solenoid valve SLC3, TCM AF 40 (531)

Solenoid valve SLC3, TCM AF 40 (531)

Location

The solenoid valve is mounted in the gearbox valve housing.

Main use

The valve controls the pressure in clutch C3. The valve is active in gear positions P, N, D (gears 1, 2, 4 and 6).

Type

Electromagnetic, variable PWM controlled.


Activation

The control module activates the valve by pulsing it with B+ (300 Hz PWM). The valve is powered from control module pin 14 in the connector that makes contact directly with the gearbox on the bottom of the control module. The valve is grounded from pin 22. The current varies between 0-1000mA. The solenoid is normally open and the hydraulic pressure drops as the current increases.
