Kickdown function

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Trionic has a pedal sensor that provides information on the position of the accelerator pedal. When the angle of the pedal exceeds a determined value, Trionic will send bus information "KICKDOWN ON", unit ON/OFF. TCM uses this information to control the shifting points for maximum performance.

The kickdown function is available in all shifting programs.
