A 2nd clutch switch (normally closed switch) is used on the THM F-7 Transaxle with the elimination of the 3rd and 4th clutch apply pressure switches. The 3rd and 4th gear selection is now calculated through the ECM using vehicle speed and engine RPM. The 2nd clutch switch is used to signal the ECM that the 2nd clutch pack has sufficient pressure (689.5 kPa (100 PSI)) for a 3-2 downshift. SERVICE ACTION:
