Overdrive Range, First Gear Without Touch Activated Power

When the gear selector lever is moved to the Overdrive (D) position from the NEUTRAL (N) position the following changes occur to shift the transmission into Overdrive Range -- First Gear.

Is moved by the gear selector lever and allows line pressure to enter the D4 passage.

Located in the control valve body (300), blocks forward servo apply passage forcing D4 pressure to the forward servo boost valve (367), the forward servo feed orifice on the spacer plate (370). When the manual valve (404) is moved from DRIVE to PARK or NEUTRAL, the ball check valve unseats to allow for a quick exhaust of servo apply fluid and release of the forward band assembly (688).

Applies and holds the forward band (688) during all forward gear drive ranges.

Wraps around and holds the 1-2 support outer race (687) during all forward gear drive ranges.

Energized (ON) by the PCM, high pressure in the 1-2, 3-4 signal fluid circuit holds the 12 shift valve in the downshifted position. 1-2, 3-4 signal fluid also is routed to the 3-4 shift valve, but is not effective.

Energized (ON) by the PCM, high pressure in the 2-3 signal fluid circuit holds the 2-3 and 3-4 shift valves in the downshifted position.

Remains applied from NEUTRAL to DRIVE and becomes effective as the forward band applies. The input sprag holds at this time.

The 1-2 support roller clutch holds when the forward band is applied.
