Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Pressure control solenoid is a PCM-controlled device used to regulate transmission line pressure. PCM compares TPS voltage, engine RPM and other inputs to determine proper line pressure for a given load. PCM regulates pressure by applying a varying amperage to pressure control solenoid. Amperage varies from 0.1 to 1.1 amps.
