Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Control Valve Body [Fw6 A EL, Fw6 Ax EL]
Purpose/Function
-
A direct linear solenoid has been adopted for the solenoid valve which contributes to improved shift response, drive feel and reduced shift shock by the improved precision of the hydraulic pressure control.
Construction
-
The control valve body consists of integrated hydraulic control related parts and electronic control related parts.
-
The transaxle range sensor, output shaft speed sensor, turbine/input shaft speed sensor, and the control valve body connector are built into the TCM and integrated with the automatic transaxle.

-
On/off solenoid
-
Oil pressure switch A, oil pressure switch B
-
Coupler component (built into transaxle fluid temperature (TFT) sensor)
