GM 6T30/40/45/50 GENERATION I & II INFORMATION

Generation 1 Pressure Switches. These pressure switches are used for adaptive control by monitoring clutch
regulating valve activity and clutch hydraulic operation.

Figure 19
Generation 1 uses Variable Bleed type solenoids while Generation 2 uses Variable Feed type solenoids. Notice the
difference in the way General Motors presents their hydraulic schematics between the two in Figure 20.
Generation 1 solenoid and pressure switches displayed in the upper hydraulic while Gen 2 without pressure
switches in the lower schematic. The different solenoid configurations between the two schematics represents the
change from one solenoid type to another.
