- The Coast Clutch Solenoid (CCS) provides coast clutch control by shifting the coast clutch shift valve.
- The solenoid is activated by pressing the Transmission Control Switch (TCS) or by selecting the 1 or 2 range with the transmission range selector lever. In MANUAL 1 and 2, the coast clutch is controlled by the solenoid and also hydraulically as a fail-safe to ensure engine braking.
- In REVERSE, the coast clutch is controlled hydraulically and the solenoid is not on.
- On Power Take-Off (PTO) equipped vehicles, the CCS will also be on during PTO operation.
