As the vehicle speed increases, the transmission control module (TCM) receives input signals from the automatic transmission input and output speed sensors, the throttle position sensor and other vehicle sensors to determine the precise moment to command ON the normally-low 26 pressure control solenoid 4 (PCS). At the same time the normally-high 35R pressure control solenoid 2 is commanded OFF.

2-6 Clutch Applies

26 Pressure Control Solenoid 4

The 26 pressure control solenoid 4 is commanded ON, allowing actuator feed fluid to enter the PCS 26 clutch fluid circuit. PCS 26 fluid is routed through orifice #32 and then to the 2-6 clutch regulator valve.

2-6 Clutch Regulator Valve

PCS 26 clutch fluid moves the 2-6 clutch regulator valve assembly against the 2-6 clutch regulator valve spring force to allow 26 clutch/1234 clutch feed fluid to pass through the valve. The 26 clutch/1234 clutch feed fluid is routed into the 26 clutch fluid circuit where it passes through orifice #46 and then to the spring end of the 2-6 clutch regulator valve, and to the 2-6 clutch.

2-6 Clutch

The 2-6 clutch fluid from the 2-6 clutch regulator valve is routed to the 2-6 clutch piston assembly. The 2-6 clutch fluid pressure moves the piston against 2-6 clutch spring force to apply the 2-6 clutch plates.

3-5 Clutch Releases

35R Pressure Control Solenoid 2

The 35R pressure control solenoid 2 is commanded OFF, allowing PCS 35 reverse clutch fluid from the 3-5 reverse clutch boost valve and the 3-5 reverse clutch regulator valve to exhaust through the solenoid.

3-5 Reverse Clutch Boost Valve

The 3-5 reverse boost valve spring force moves the valve to allow 35 reverse clutch feedback fluid from the 3-5 reverse clutch regulator valve to enter the 35 reverse clutch circuit and exhaust.

3-5 Reverse Clutch Regulator Valve

The 3-5 reverse clutch regulator valve spring force moves the valve to allow actuator feed limit fluid to pass through the valve and enter the PS2 fluid circuit which opens PS2. The 35 reverse clutch fluid then enters the exhaust backfill fluid circuit and is routed through orifice #30 to the exhaust backfill pressure relief valve where excess pressure is exhausted.

3-5 Reverse Clutch

The 3-5 reverse clutch spring force moves the 3-5 reverse clutch piston to release the 3-5 clutch plates and forces 3-5 reverse clutch fluid to exhaust from 3-5 reverse/456 clutch housing. The 35 reverse clutch fluid is then routed to the 3-5 reverse clutch regulator valve where it exhaust excess pressure.
