2-6 Clutch Regulator Gain Valve
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Yukon XL, 2007 GMC Yukon, 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT, 2007 Cadillac Escalade ESV, and 2007 Cadillac Escalade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The 2-6 clutch regulator gain valve allows the gain (valve input to output pressure magnification factor) of the 2-6 clutch regulator valve to be different for a 1-2 shift verses a 5-6 shift. For a 5-6 shift PCS 26 clutch fluid pressure passes through the hollow valve and only acts on the 26 regulator valve area, resulting in the "low gain" pressure output.
