Transmission Mode Switch: Description and Operation

COMPONENT PARTS

CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Manual Mode Switch

- The manual mode switch [mode select switch and position select switch (shift-up/shift-down)] is installed in the CVT shift selector assembly.
- The mode select switch detects the position (the main shift gate side or manual shift gate side) of the selector lever and transmits a manual mode signal or a not manual mode signal to the combination meter. Then, the TCM receives a manual mode signal or non-manual mode signal from the combination meter.
- The position select switch (shift-up) detects that the selector lever is shifted to the shift-up side of the manual shift gate and transmits a manual mode shift up signal to the combination meter. Then, the TCM receives a manual mode shift up signal from the combination meter.
- The position select switch (shift-down) detects that the selector lever is shifted to the shift-down side of the manual shift gate and transmits a manual mode shift down signal to the combination meter. Then, the TCM
receives a manual mode shift down signal from the combination meter.
