▶ Power flow diagram
▶ Functioning elements
- C2 applied, drives FSG
- C1 applied, drives Rear Planet Carrier
▶ Control
- S1 is OFF, S2 is OFF.
- C1 Shift Valve is OPEN (S1 OFF) allowing drive oil to engage C1 Clutch.
- C2 Shift Valve is OPEN (S2 OFF) allowing drive oil to engage C2 Clutch.
- Drive oil that engages C1 & C2 Clutches is regulated by S5 & S6 VBS, respectively for each
clutch.

2. SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
1) TCU
The transmission control unit (TCU) controls transmission gear selection via variable bleed
solenoids and On/Off solenoids. The TCU operating voltage is 8-16 V, with current draw
typically being less than 4 amps but reaching as high as 10 amps during gear shifts.
As the mechanical components of the transmission change due to wear etc, the TCU adapts its
shift data to accommodate these changes and maintain shift quality over the life of the vehicle.
If a transmission component degrades to a point whereby the TCU is unable to adapt its shift
data to maintain shift quality, the TCU will set a DTC.

3) Transmission Cooling
The transmission control unit (TCU) monitors the transmission oil temperature. If the vehicle
cooling system is unable to maintain a satisfactory transmission oil temperature the TCU will
take precautionary measures to prevent damage to the transmission and other vehicle
components.
The TCU also monitors the rate of temperature change according to current operating
conditions (performance). If the temperature sensor performance is outside a pre-determined
set of values, DTC P0711 will set.
