CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSAXLE SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The K313 (CVT) is a fully electrohydraulically controlled steel belt type continuously variable transaxle. This is a highly efficient transaxle that is controlled in conjunction with the engine, contributing to enhanced fuel efficiency and quietness without shift shock. In addition, the continuously variable transaxle has the following features:
Diagnostic function
Fail-safe function when a malfunction occurs
FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
The main components of the K313 CVT system are as follows:
Component
Outline
Continuously Variable Transaxle Assembly
Shift Solenoid Valve SC
Used to switch control of the shift solenoid valve SLU between forward and reverse clutch control and lock-up clutch control.
Shift Solenoid Valve SL
Shift Solenoid Valve SLU
Performs forward and reverse clutch control or lock-up clutch control depending on the states of the shift solenoid valves SC and SL.
Shift Solenoid Valve SLP
Controls the oil pressure of the primary pulley.
Shift Solenoid Valve SLS
Controls the oil pressure of the secondary pulley.
Transmission Revolution Sensor (NIN)
Detects the primary pulley speed.
Transmission Revolution Sensor (NOUT)
Detects the secondary pulley speed.
Transmission Revolution Sensor (NT)
Detects the input turbine speed.
CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor
Detects the CVT fluid temperature.
Oil Pressure Sensor
Detects the CVT oil pressure for belt clamping force.
Stop Light Switch Assembly
Detects the state of the brake pedal.
Park/Neutral Position Switch Assembly
Detects the position of the shift lever.
Shift Paddle Switch (Transmission Shift Switch Assembly)
Detects the driver's shift-up and shift-down operations in 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode.
Operating this switch when the shift lever is in D changes the mode temporarily to 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode.
Shift Lock Control Unit Assembly
Transmission Control Switch
Detects that the shift lever is in M.
Detects the driver's shift-up and shift-down operations when the shift lever is in M.
Combination Meter Assembly
Shift Position Indicator
Indicates the shift lever position.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Illuminates or blinks to alert the driver that the ECM has detected a malfunction.
ECM
Performs electronic control of the CVT system.
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM performs diagnosis and memorizes the malfunctioning area.
Yaw Rate Sensor
Detects the vehicle's yaw rate, longitudinal and lateral acceleration and deceleration.
Brake Actuator Assembly
Skid Control ECU
Transmits the vehicle speed and longitudinal acceleration signals to the ECM.
Transmits the operating states of the ABS and VSC to the ECM.
No. 1 Pattern Select Switch
Operating this switch turns SPORT mode on or off.
DLC3
Used for connecting the GTS to read diagnostic trouble codes and ECM data.
