ON/OFF SOLENOID [FW6A-EL]

Purpose/Function

• The on/off solenoid performs switching of the shift valve in the control valve body according to the vehicle conditions.

Construction

• The on/off solenoid is installed to the solenoid control valve body.

• The on/off solenoid is a normal open-type on/off solenoid.

  

Operation

Non-energization (OFF)

• When the on/off solenoid is off, the supply port in the solenoid opens. As a result, hydraulic pressure is supplied to operate the shift valve.

Energized (ON)

• When the on/off solenoid is on, the drain port in the solenoid opens. As a result, hydraulic pressure which operates the shift valve is drained.
