The kickdown brake is a band type brake; it is composed of a kickdown band, drum, kickdown servo, switch and
anchor. When the 2nd pressure is admitted to the apply side chamber of kickdown servo cylinder, the kickdown piston
and rod moves toward the left, tightening the brake band to hold the kickdown drum. As a result, the reverse sun
gear (interlocked with the kickdown drum) is held. This brake functions during 2nd gear and during overdrive.
The kickdown servo switch detects the position of the kickdown piston just before the brake is applied, and
sends the signal to the transaxle control module. Using this signal, the transaxle control module controls the
2nd pressure both before, and during application of the brake. In the initial control stage or until just before
the kickdown brake is applied, a higher 2nd pressure is supplied to the kickdown servo so that the kickdown
piston con move quickly for faster response to the kickdown condition that has been initiated. In the second
control stage or while the brake is being applied, the 2nd pressure is regulated at an optimum level so that
the band is tightened on the drum the proper amount for good kickdown "feeling".

Low reverse brake is of the multiple disc type and is composed of a center support, disc plates and a piston.
The brake operates when the shift is in 1st gear in the "L" range or back gear. It fastens the carrier in the
planetary gearing set. That is, the shafts of the long and short pinions are fastened.

One-way clutch is of the sprag type and is incorporated between the pinion carrier and the center support.
In 1st gear (D or 2 range), the long pinion rotates clockwise. This reduces a force which has the tendency to cause the
carrier is blocked from rotating in that direction by the one-way clutch. As a result, the long pinion transmits its force to
the annulus gear. The carrier, which is coupled with the one-way clutch outer race, is free to turn in clockwise direction.
In an engine braking condition under which the annulus gear is turned first, the carrier turns clockwise
freely and, therefore, the engine braking effect is not obtained.

The automatic transmission fluid(ATF) temperature sensor is installed in the valve body. This sensor uses a thermistor
whose resistance changes according to the temperature changes. The TCM(PCM) supplies a 5V reference voltage to
the sensor, and the output voltage of the sensor changes when the ATF temperature varies. The automatic transmission
fluid(ATF) temperature provides very important data for the TCM(PCM)’s control of the torque converter clutch, and is
also used for many other purposes.
This DTC code is set when the ATF temperature output voltage is lower than the value generated by thermistor resistance,
in a normal operating range, for approximately 1 second or longer. The TCM(PCM) regards the ATF temperature as fixed
at a value of 80 C(176 F), if this DTC is detected.

The input(turbine) speed sensor outputs waveform signals according to the revolutions of the input shaft ,installed in front

of the pulses. This value is mainly used to control the optimum fluid pressure during shifting.
The TCM(PCM) sets this code if an output pulse-signal is not detected, from the INPUT SPEED SENSOR(PG-A), when
the vehicle is running faster than 30 km/h(19 mile/h). The Fail-Safe function will be set by the TCM(PCM) if this code is

The TCM(PCM) controls the locking and unlocking of the Torque Converter Clutch (or Damper Clutch), to the input shaft
of the transmission, by appling hydraulic pressure. The main purpose of T/C clutch control is to save fuel by decreasing
the hydraulic load inside the T/C. The TCM(PCM) outputs duty pulses to control the Damper Clutch Control Solenoid
Valve(DCCSV) and hydraulic pressure is applied to the DC according to the DCC duty ratio value. When the duty ratio
is high, high pressure is applied and the Damper Clutch is locked. The normal operating range of the Damper Clutch
Control duty ratio value is from 30%(unlocked) to 85%(locked).
The TCM(PCM) increases the duty ratio to engage the Damper Clutch by monitoring slip rpms (difference vlaue beteween
engine speed and turbine speed). To decrease the slip of the Damper Clutch, the TCM(PCM) increases the duty ratio by
appling more hyraulic pressure. When slip rpm does not drop under specification with 100% duty ratio, the TCM(PCM)
determines that the Torque Converter Clutch is stuck OFF and sets this code.

The Automatic Transmission changes the gear position of the transmission utilizing a combination of Clutches and Brakes,
which are controlled by solenoid valves. The New Alpha Automatic Transmission consists of a: LR (Low and Reverse
Brake), KD (Kick Down Brake), FC (Front Clutch), RC (Rear Clutch), and EC (End Clutch). The gear position is determined
by the combination of 3 kinds of Shift Control Solenoid Valves. (SCSV A , SCSV B, SCSV C).
The TCM(PCM) checks the Shift Control Solenoin Valve C control signal by monitoring the feedback signal from the
solenoid valve drive circuit. If an unexpected signal is monitored, (For example, high voltage is detected when low voltage
is expected, or low voltage is detected when high voltage is expected) the TCM(PCM) judges that SCSV C control solenoid
circuit is malfunctioning and sets this code.

The KICK DOWN BRAKE is one of the New Alpha automatic transmission’s members, which is engaged in the 2nd or
4th gear position, and is released in the 1st or 3rd gear position. The Kick Down Servo switch is installed inside the Kick
down brake to provide the optimum hydraulic pressure control by checking the position of the kickdown brake. The Kick
Down Servor switch is OFF when the gear is in the 2nd or 4th position, and the switch is ON when the gear is 1st or 3rd

The TCM can either receive data from the Engine Control Module or ABS control module, or it can send data to the ECM
and ABSCM by using CAN communication. The CAN communicaton is one of the vehicle communication methods, which
is now widely used to transfer the vehicle data.
When the TCM cannot read the data from the ECM through the CAN-BUS line, the TCM sets this code.
