Reverse Range "Limp Home" Hydraulic Schematic

If electrical power is interrupted with the transmission operating in R (Reverse) and the throttle was above approximately 20 percent and did not drop to 10 percent before the power interruption, resulting in neutral operation, and if the Manual Selector Valve is moved to a forward range, main pressure goes through Shift Valves E and D and the Manual Selector Valve, to the C2 clutch, applying the clutch. The C3 clutch remains applied. Applying the C2 and C3 clutches produces fifth range operation.

If electrical power is interrupted with the transmission operating in R (Reverse) range, and the throttle is 10 percent or lower and did not rise to 20 percent before the power interruption, resulting in neutral operation, the engine may be shut down and restarted to attain neutral, third and reverse operation.
