Valve body and TECHM assembly:
The valve body assembly includes the 2
channeling plates, gasket, TECHM, Internal Mode
Switch (IMS) and Transmission Input Speed
Sensor (TISS) and Transmission Output Speed
Sensor (TOSS) wires. The TCU commands shift
solenoids and variable bleed pressure control
solenoids to control shift timing and feel. The TCU
also controls the apply and release of the torque
converter clutch which allows the engine. The
TCU is located in the transmission oil pan.
Electrical signals from various sensors provide
information to TCU about vehicle speed, throttle
position,
engine
coolant
temperature,
transmission fluid temperature, gear range
selector position, engine speed, converter turbine
speed, engine load braking and operating mode
etc.
The TCU uses this information to determine the
precise moment to upshift or downshift, apply or
release the TCC, and what fluid pressure is
needed to apply the clutches. This type of control
provides consistent and precise shift points and
shift quality based on the operating conditions...
Transmission Electro-Hydraulically Control
Module (TEHCM):
The TCU, the shift solenoids, the pressure control
solenoids, the transmission fluid temperature
sensor are packaged into a self contained control
unit, the Transmission Electro-Hydraulically
Control Module (TEHCM) bolted on the valve
body
Note:
This is for information only. Disassembly of this
component is not allowed.
Transmission 16-Way Connector Description:
The TEHCM connects to the vehicle harness 16-
way connector via a pass-thru sleeve.
