CONTROL SYSTEM
Description Electronic, closed loop, adaptive with stand-alone Electronic Control Unit (ECU) Shift Sequences [C = Converter Mode (lockup clutch disengaged); L = Lockup Mode (lockup clutch engaged)] 1C[1L]2C2L3L4L5L6L 1C[1L]2C2L3L4L5L 1C[1L]2C2L3L4L 2C2L3L4L5L6L 2C2L3L4L5L 2C2L3L4L

ECU must be calibrated for 1L option. Even when available in the shift calibration, L will be commanded only during specific vehicle operating conditions. Second-gear-start calibrations are not available for all vehicle applications.
