Control Module: Description and Operation

OPERATION
In addition to controlling engine operation, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) controls transaxle operation. It does this by manipulating four solenoids -- Torque Converter Clutch (TCC), Shift Solenoid 1 (SS1), Shift Solenoid 2 (SS2), and Shift Solenoid 3 (SS3).
