WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2006 Mazda MPV, 2005 Mazda MPV, 2004 Mazda MPV, 2004 Mazda 6, and 2003 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The driving force of the input shaft is transmitted to the reverse and high clutch drum, and then to the front sun gear through the reverse clutch, causing the front sun gear to rotate counterclockwise.
- The front pinion gear of the planetary gear does not revolve around the front sun gear because the planetary carrier is locked by the low and reverse brake.
- As a result, the front sun gear causes the front pinion gear to rotate clockwise.
- This rotation causes the internal gear to rotate clockwise, followed by a clockwise rotation of the output gear.
- The driving force of the output gear is transmitted to the reduction internal gear through the idler gear, causing the reduction internal gear to rotate counterclockwise.
- The reduction sun gear, however, does not rotate around the reduction pinion gear because the reduction sun gear is locked by the reduction brake.
- As a result, the reduction carrier rotates counterclockwise due to the reduction gear set operation, and the driving force is transmitted to the driving wheels.
