The main control valve body directs fluid under pressure to the torque converter, band servos and clutches. A system of valves, passages and check balls are used to direct fluid to the necessary component. The solenoid assembly is used to operate various valves in the valve body in order to control transaxle shift timing, feel and schedule.
