since 1997 release

Repair and operation of the car

The general principles of functioning of system transmission, the operating signals

General information

The scheme/design of an arrangement of the main components of an electronic control system of transmission and the ID card of plugs of the AT 13-contact socket are presented on illustrations.

Scheme of an arrangement of components of an electronic control system of AT

N15/3 — the Module of management of transmission (TCM) S16/6 — the Sensor switch of activation of the kickdown mode	Y3/6 — Electric knot of the electrohydraulic control unit of switchings

Design of the electrohydraulic control unit of switchings

Design of the selector module (without function of the consecutive choice of ranges, - release models till 31.08.99)

Card of identification of plugs of the 13-contact socket of the electrohydraulic control unit of switchings

TCM (N15/3) determines the current working parameters of the vehicle and exercises control of consecutive gear shifting, proceeding from simplicity of switching and parameters of the movement.

Activation of electromagnetic valves of switching is carried out at the command of the ETC (N15/3) control unit. The required size of pressure is calculated on the basis of the entering data and necessary adjustment adjustment of the transferred torque.

The processed parameters

Illustrative material by the principle of data exchange in a control system of AT it is presented on an illustration.

Entrance and output signals of the AT 722.6 control unit and tire of data exchange of CAN
