3. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM

The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the governor body, the
accumulators, the clutches and brakes as well as the fluid passage which connect all of these com-
ponents. Based in the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system
governs the hydraulic pressure acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accor-
dance with the vehicle driving conditions.
There are three solenoid valves on the valve body.
The No. 1 and No. 2 solenoid valves are turned on and off by signals from the ECM to operate the
shift valves and change the gear shift position.
The No. 3 solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to engage or disengage the lockup
clutch of the torque converter clutch.

4. ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM

The electronic control system, which controls the shift points and the operation of the lock-up clutch,
is composed of the following three parts:
1. Sensors
These sensors sense the vehicle speed, throttle opening and other conditions and send these data
to the ECM in the form of electrical signals.
2. ECM
The ECM determines the shift and lock-up timing based upon the signals from sensors, and controls
the solenoid valves of the hydraulic control unit accordingly.
3. Actuators
These are three solenoid valves that control hydraulic pressure acting on the hydraulic valves to
control shifting and lock-up timing.

3. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM

The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the governor body, the
accumulators, the clutches and brakes as well as the fluid passage which connect all of these com-
ponents. Based in the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system
governs the hydraulic pressure acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accor-
dance with the vehicle driving conditions.
There are three solenoid valves on the valve body.
The No. 1 and No. 2 solenoid valves are turned on and off by signals from the ECM to operate the
shift valves and change the gear shift position.
The No. 3 solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to engage or disengage the lockup
clutch of the torque converter clutch.

4. ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM

The electronic control system, which controls the shift points and the operation of the lock-up
clutch, is composed of the following three parts:
1. Sensors
These sensors sense the vehicle speed, throttle opening and other conditions and send these data
to the ECM in the form of electrical signals.
2. ECM
The ECM determines the shift and lock-up timing based upon the signals from sensors, and con-
trols the solenoid valves of the hydraulic control unit accordingly.
3. Actuators
These are three solenoid valves that control hydraulic pressure acting on the hydraulic valves to
control shifting and lock-up timing.

COMPONENT PARTS
GENERAL NOTES
The instructions here are organized so that you work on only one component group at a time.
This will help avoid confusion from similar-looking parts of different subassemblies being on
your workbench at the same time.
The component groups are inspected and repaired from the converter housing side.
As much as possible, complete the inspection, repair and assembly before proceeding to the
next component group. If a component group can not be assembled because parts are being
ordered, be sure to keep all parts of that group in a separate container while proceeding with
disassembly, inspection, repair and assembly of other component groups.
Recommended ATF:
DEXRON
II
GENERAL CLEANING NOTES:
1. All disassembled parts should be washed clean and any fluid passages and holes blown
through with compressed air.
2. When using compressed air to dry parts, always aim away from yourself to prevent accidentally
spraying automatic transmission fluid or kerosene on your face.
3. The recommended automatic transmission fluid or kerosene should be used for cleaning.
PARTS ARRANGEMENT:
1. After cleaning, the parts should be arranged in correct order to allow efficient inspection,
repairs, and reassembly.
2. When disassembling a valve body, be sure to keep each valve together with the corresponding
ProCarManuals.com

spring.
3. New discs for the brakes and clutches that are to be used for replacement must be soaked in
transmission fluid for at least fifteen minutes before assembly.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY:
1. All oil seal rings, clutch discs, clutch plates, rotating parts, and sliding surfaces should be
coated with transmission fluid prior to reassembly.
2. All gaskets and rubber O-rings should be replaced.
3. Make sure that the ends of a snap ring are not aligned with one of the cutouts and are installed
in the groove correctly.
4. If a worn bushing is to be replaced, the subassembly containing that bushing must also be
replaced.
5. Check thrust bearings and races for wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
6. Use petroleum jelly to keep parts in place.

A46DF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - COMPONENT PARTS INSTALLATION (A46DF)
WWW.ALL-TRANS.BY

COMPONENT PARTS INSTALLATION

Disassembly, inspection and assembly of each component group have been indicated in the
preceding chapter. Before assembly, make sure again that all component groups are assembled
correctly.
If something wrong is found in a certain component group during assembly, inspect and repair
this group immediately.
Recommended ATF:
DEXRON
II

GENERAL INSTALLATION NOTES

1. The automatic transmission is composed of highly precision-finished parts, necessitating

careful inspection before assembly because even a small nick could cause fluid leakage of
affect performance.
2. Before assembling new clutch discs, soak them in automatic transmission fluid for at least
fifteen minutes.
3. Apply automatic transmission fluid on sliding or rotating surfaces of parts before assembly.
4. Use petroleum jelly to keep small parts in their places.
5. Do not use adhesive cements on gaskets and similar parts.
6. When assembling the transmission, be sure to use new gaskets and O-rings.
7. Dry all parts with compressed air, never use shop rags.

COMPONENT PARTS INSTALLATION

Disassembly, inspection and assembly of each component group have been indicated in the
preceding chapter. Before assembly, make sure again that all component groups are as-
sembled correctly.
If something wrong is found in a certain component group during assembly, inspect and re-
pair this group immediately.
Recommended ATF:

GENERAL INSTALLATION NOTES

1. The automatic transmission is composed of highly precision-finished parts, necessitating

careful inspection before assembly because even a small nick could cause fluid leakage of
affect performance.
2. Before assembling new clutch discs, soak them in automatic transmission fluid for at least
fifteen minutes.
3. Apply automatic transmission fluid on sliding or rotating surfaces of parts before assembly.
4. Use petroleum jelly to keep small parts in their places.
5. Do not use adhesive cements on gaskets and similar parts.
6. When assembling the transmission, be sure to use new gaskets and O-rings.
7. Dry all parts with compressed air, never use shop rags.

GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

1. Use fender, seat and floor covers to keep the vehicle
clean and prevent damage.
2. During disassembly, keep parts in the appropriate
order to facilitate reassembly.
3. Observe the following:
(a) Before performing electrical work, disconnect the
negative cable from the battery terminal.
FI1066
(b) If it is necessary to disconnect the battery for in-
spection or repair, always disconnect the cable
from the negative (-) terminal which is grounded to
the vehicle body.
(c) To prevent damage to the battery terminal post,
loosen the terminal nut and raise the cable straight
up without twisting or prying it.
(d) Clean the battery terminal posts and cable termi-
nals with a clean shop rag. Do not scrape them
with a file or other abrasive objects.
(e) Install the cable terminal to the battery post with
the nut loose, and tighten the nut after installation.
Do not use a hammer to tap the terminal onto the
post.
ProCarManuals.com

(f) Be sure the cover for the positive (+) terminal is

properly in place.
4. Check hose and wiring connectors to make sure that
they are secure and correct.
5. Non-reusable parts
(a) Always replace cotter pins, gaskets, O-rings and
oil seals etc. with new ones.
(b) Non-reusable parts are indicated in the compo-
nent illustrations by the ”♦ ” symbol.

6. Precoated parts
Precoated parts are bolts and nuts, etc. that are coated
with a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
(a) If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or
caused to move in any way, it must be recoated with
the specified adhesive.

Seal Lock Adhesive

IN0036
 IN-6
INTRODUCTION - GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
WWW.ALL-TRANS.BY

(b) When reusing precoated parts, clean off the old

adhesive and dry with compressed air. Then apply
the specified seal lock adhesive to the bolt, nut or
threads.
(c) Precoated parts are indicated in the component
illustrations by the ”
” symbol.
7. When necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent
leaks.
8. Carefully observe all specifications for bolt tightening
torques. Always use a torque wrench.
9. Use of special service tools (SST) and special service
materials (SSM) may be required, depending on the
nature of the repair. Be sure to use SST and SSM
where specified and follow the proper work proce-
dure. A list of SST and SSM can be found at the prep-
aration of AT section.

Fuse 10. When replacing fuses, be sure the new fuse has the
ProCarManuals.com

correct amperage rating. DO NOT exceed the rating

Equal Amperage Rating or use one with a lower rating.

BE1366

11. To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the con-

WRONG CORRECT nector itself, not the wires.
12. Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting
the vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at
the proper locations.
(a) If the vehicle is to be jacked up only at the front or
rear end, be sure to block the wheels at the oppo-
site end in order to ensure safety.
(b) After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it
IN0252 on stands. It is extremely dangerous to do any
work on a vehicle raised on a jack alone, even for
a small job that can be finished quickly.
