In 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th gear, the D2 Latch valve directs exhaust circuit pressure from the CL EXH circuit to the CL B circuit to fill the circuit and the direct clutch (B) with fluid at low pressure, approximately 21 kPa (3 psi). This keeps air out of the Clutch B circuits resulting in smooth shifts when the clutch is applied in 3rd or 5th gear.
Direct Clutch (B) Released in 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th Gear
