In total, the 62TE provides seven forward ratios and one reverse.
The underdrive compounder assembly has two modes of operation: direct and reduction.
N
otice in the "What's On When" chart, the 2-3, 3-2, and 4-2 shifts require a "double swap" shift. This occurs
when two elements are turned off while two different elements are engaged.
This clutch-to-clutch synchronization takes place within 40 - 70 milliseconds, producing a smooth shift. If the
underdrive compounder assembly shifts too early (in relation to the shifts taking place in the main centerline), a
shudder or harsh shift results. If the underdrive assembly shifts too late, the driver experiences a "double bump"
sensation.
To avoid a double swap shift in a 6-4 downshift, the transaxle shifts into 4th prime, which requires the
deactivation of the OD clutch and the simultaneous application of the UD clutch.
