Apply Components
BAND-INTERMEDIATE AND OVERDRIVEThe intermediate and overdrive band assembly hold the reverse clutch drum assembly to the transaxle case in second and fourth gear. This action causes Reverse/Overdrive sun gear and shell to be held stationary in second and fourth gears.
INTERMEDIATE AND OVERDRIVE SERVO
The intermediate and overdrive servo is the hydraulic actuator which applies the intermediate and overdrive band assembly. Line pressure is applied through the servo apply circuit where it works on one side of the servo piston. This forces the piston to move up the servo bore in the transaxle case, which moves the servo apply rod against one end of the intermediate and overdrive band assembly. Since the other end of the intermediate and overdrive band assembly is anchored to the transaxle case, the ends of the intermediate and overdrive band assembly are squeezed around the reverse clutch drum assembly, holding the reverse assembly stationary.
CLUTCH-FORWARD
The forward clutch connects the turbine shaft to the outer race of the forward one-way clutch, which in turn drives the low-intermediate sun gear in all forward gear ranges. However, in fourth gear, the forward clutch transmits no power since the forward one-way clutch is overrunning. The forward clutch is contained in the forward/coast/direct clutch cylinder assembly
CLUTCH-DIRECT
The direct clutch connects the turbine shaft assembly to the low/intermediate ring gear assembly in third and fourth gears. The direct clutch is contained in the forward/coast/direct clutch cylinder assembly.
CLUTCH-REVERSE
The reverse clutch connects the turbine shaft to the reverse/overdrive sun gear and shell assembly in reverse gear. The reverse clutch assembly is contained in the reverse clutch cylinder.
CLUTCH-COAST
The coast clutch is a multi-disc clutch located beneath the forward clutch in the forward/coast/direct clutch cylinder assembly. It connects the low/intermediate sun gear assembly to the turbine shaft assembly when the transmission control switch is ON, in the D position or when any manual gear is selected.
CLUTCH-LOW/REVERSE
The low/reverse clutch holds the reverse/overdrive carrier assembly to the transaxle case when the transaxle is shifted into the R and 1 positions. The low/reverse clutch is splined to the transaxle case and is a multi-disc clutch.
CLUTCH-FORWARD ONE-WAY
The forward one-way clutch is a sprag-type one-way clutch. The forward one-way clutch combines with the forward clutch to connect the turbine shaft with the low-intermediate sun gear assembly in first, second or third gears. The forward one-way clutch overruns during all coasting operations and in fourth gear.
CLUTCH-LOW ONE-WAY
The low one-way clutch is a roller-type one-way clutch which allows the transaxle case to hold the reverse/overdrive carrier stationary during first gear operation. The low one-way clutch will only hold the reverse/overdrive carrier stationary during acceleration. The low one-way clutch overruns during coasting disconnecting the final drive from the planetary gearsets.
