Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Proportional (VFS)
The TCC solenoid is a VFS that varies hydraulic pressure by actuating a hydraulic valve. The PCM applies variable current to the TCC solenoid which varies pressure in the VFS6 hydraulic circuit to the Converter Release Regulator Valve and the Bypass Clutch Control Regulator Valve. The TCC solenoid uses proportional operation. As the current from the PCM decreases, the pressure from the solenoid decreases. As the current from the PCM increases, the pressure from the solenoid increases. The TCC solenoid is supplied hydraulic pressure from the SREG circuit. With zero current, the TCC solenoid fully closes the hydraulic valve which applies the minimum amount of hydraulic pressure to the Converter Release Regulator Valve and the Bypass Clutch Control Regulator Valve through the VFS6 hydraulic circuit and releases the TCC. With maximum current to the solenoid, the hydraulic valve fully opens the outlet port for maximum pressure to the VFS6 hydraulic circuit to apply the TCC.
