Description & Operation: GEARTRAIN: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Power is transmitted from the torque converter to the planetary gearset through the input shaft. Bands and clutches are used to hold and drive certain combinations of gearset. This results in five forward ratios and one reverse ratio, which are transmitted to the output shaft.
