Shift solenoid valve C is turned OFF by the PCM, and SH C pressure (SC) is applied to the right side of the reverse CPC valve. Then the reverse CPC valve is moved to the left side to uncover the port leading line pressure (3) to the servo valve. Line pressure (3') passes through the servo valve and flows to the manual valve. Line pressure (3") is intercepted at the manual valve, and is not applied to the clutches.
NOTE:
When used, "left" or "right" indicates direction on the hydraulic circuit.
