VALVE BODY
OPERATION
OPERATION
REGULATOR VALVE
The regulator valve controls hydraulic pressure in the transaxle. It receives unregulated pressure from the pump,
which works against spring tension to maintain oil at specific pressures. A system of sleeves and ports allows
the regulator valve to work at one of three predetermined pressure levels. Regulated oil pressure is also referred
to as "line pressure."
SOLENOID SWITCH VALVE
The solenoid switch valve controls line pressure from the LR/CC solenoid. In one position, it allows the
low/reverse clutch to be pressurized. In the other, it directs line pressure to the converter control and converter
clutch valves.
MANUAL VALVE
NOTE: Check converter hub and drive notches for sharp edges, burrs, scratches, or
nicks. Polish the hub and notches with 320/400 grit paper or crocus cloth if
necessary. The hub must be smooth to avoid damaging the pump seal at
installation.
CAUTION: Do not damage oil pump seal or bushing while inserting torque
converter into the front of the transmission.
