Automatic Transmission System - Kick Down Switch Circuit

The kick-down switch is turned ON when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed and a signal is sent to the ECM.


When the kick-down switch is turned ON, the ECM controls gear shifting according to the programmed shift diagrams.


If a short circuit develops in the kick-down switch, the ECM disregards the kick-down signals and controls shifting at the normal shift points.

Automatic Transmission System - Pattern Select Switch Snow Mode Circuit

Cowl side J/B ECU receives pattern select switch information, and sends it through the multiplex communication system and CAN system to the ECM.


ECT SNOW is the system that operates the throttle motor to control engine output to reduce skidding of the driving wheels, guarantee takeoff acceleration, driving straightness and turning stability.

Automatic Transmission System - Shift Paddle Switch Circuit

When moving the shift lever into the S position using the transmission control switch, it is possible to switch the shift range position between "1" (first range) and "6" (sixth range).


Shifting up "+" once raises one shift range position, and shifting down "-" lowers one shift range position.

Automatic Transmission System - Transmission Control Switch Circuit

When moving the shift lever into the S position using the transmission control switch, it is possible to switch the shift range position between "1" (first range) and "6" (sixth range).


Shifting up "+" once raises one shift range position, and shifting down "-" lowers one shift range position.
