TCM Function: Notes
The function of the TCM is to:
- Receive input signals transmitted from various switches and sensors.
- Determine required line pressure, shifting point, lock-up operation, engine brake operation, etc.
- Transmit required output signals to the respective solenoids.SIGNALS REFERENCE
