Accumulator Valve
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Yukon and 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Biased by torque signal fluid pressure, spring force and orificed accumulator fluid pressure at the end of the valve, the accumulator valve regulates D4 fluid into accumulator fluid pressure. Accumulator fluid is routed to both the 1-2 and 3-4 accumulator assemblies in preparation for the 1-2 and 3-4 upshifts respectively.
