Circuit/System Description
The transmission fluid pressure (TFP) switch 4 assembly is part of the control solenoid valve assembly which has no serviceable components. The transmission control module (TCM) supplies a signal circuit to the TFP switch 4. The TFP switch 4 has an internal case ground. TFP switch 4 is normally closed, or Low. When oil pressure is present at the TFP switch 4, the switch is open, or High. The normally low clutch pressure control (PC) solenoid 5 controls pressure to the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve. The TCM monitors the TFP switch 4 to determine the position of the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve. When the 1-2-3-4 clutch is commanded OFF, pressure is present on the TFP switch 4. When the 1-2-3-4 clutch is commanded ON, the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve moves and pressure to the TFP switch 4 is exhausted through the 1-2-3-4 clutch regulator valve.
