- Each shift solenoid is set to third gear mode. Pilot pressure is applied to the bottom end of shift valve B and shift valve B is positioned on the upper side. Conversely, shift valves A and C is positioned on the down side by spring force. Line pressure (1) flows through shift valve B and is applied to the low clutch (oil passage (35)). Also, line pressure (1) flows through the shift valve C and acts through the shift valve A and is applied to the high clutch (oil passage (23)). Line pressure (5) flows through shift valve B and is applied to the reduction brake (oil passage (34)).
