Outline
In the electronic control system, the TCM calculates the control content based on signals from each type of sensor and switch to operate output parts such as each solenoid. In consideration of suppressed shift shock, smooth driving, and improved fuel economy, the TCM performs controls so as to maintain the optimum driving performance in response to the vehicles driving scenario.

Engine Coolant Protection Inspection
1. Measure the engine coolant temperature and specific gravity using a thermometer
and a hydrometer.
CAUTION:
Use engine coolant at a concentration that meets the environmental conditions
in which the vehicle is driven, otherwise engine damage could occur.

Planetary Gear [Fw6 A EL, Fw6 Ax EL]
Purpose/Function
The planetary gear is a mechanism which shifts the drive force from the engine.
The planetary gear consists of multiple gears which rotate individually while
revolving. By controlling the individual rotation and revolving of the gears,
the transaxle performs gear shi ...
