Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Ac60e Automatic Transmission / Transaxle / Automatic Transmission System(for 2tr-fe) / Pattern Select Switch Power Mode Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The ECM memory contains the programs for the normal and PWR shift patterns.

By following the programs corresponding to the signals from the pattern select switch assembly, park/neutral position switch and other various sensors, the ECM switches the shift solenoid valves on and off, and controls the transmission gear ratio.
