Title: AB60F AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION / TRANSAXLE: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

Pattern Select Switch Power Mode Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The ECM memory contains the programs for the normal and power shift patterns and lock-up pattern.

By following the programs corresponding to the signals from the No. 1 pattern select switch assembly, the park/neutral position switch and other various sensors, the ECM switches the shift solenoid valves on and off, and controls the transmission gear change and the lock-up clutch operation.
