Hold support, inner race should freewheel in the direction of the arrow.
One-way clutches must freewheel in the proper direction and lock in the proper direction. They should also be checked for spring load or tension. While rotating the races in the freewheel direction they should have some drag. This is checking the springs that load the roller or strut. There should be some drag in the freewheel direction.

The pressure switch is used to signal the manual valve position to the PCM. Fluids are routed to the pressure switch depending on manual valve position where they open and close the individual pressure switches. This provides a signal to the PCM indicating the gear range position of the manual valve. The combination of open and closed switches determines the voltage present at the three pins P R N in the connector. An open circuit measures 12 volts and a grounded circuit measures 0 volts.

Temperature Sensor (resistor)
Terminals
Transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a negative thermis-tor that is a part of the pressure switch. The TFT sensor controls sig-nal voltage from the PCM. The PCM sends a 5 volts reference sig-nal to the sensor on TFT sensor signal circuit, when sensor is cold sensor resistance is high and PCM detects high signal voltage. As transmission fluid temperature increases, sensor resistance de-creases and voltage decreases. At normal operating temperatures of 212° F. (100° C) voltage is about 1.5 – 2 volts.
The PCM measures this voltage to help control TCC apply and line pressure. The PCM inhibits TCC apply until transmission fluid reaches 84° F. When fluid temperature exceeds 275° F the PCM commands TCC apply at all times in fourth. Note: Applying TCC reduces fluid temperatures created by the fluid coupling in the converter.

3-4 Return Springs 87up 700’s and all 4L60E’s need these return springs.
These springs should always be used with the original thickness bottom and top pres-sure plate and snap ring. These springs prevent clutch drag during high throttle in 1st, 2nd and during a 3-2 kick down by opposing centrifugal residual oil apply force at higher revs.
At lighter throttle these springs reduce overlap during the 2-3 up shift and make a cleaner 3-2 downshift. These springs prevent accidental clutch apply because of minor cross leaks at the input rings, support or valve body.
Adding Additional 3-4 Clutches Additional 3-4 friction can be installed by using thinner steel plates and reusing the original pres-sure plates, snap ring and 3-4 return springs.
For hot rods, that rev above 5200 rpm: Use the 700-2&3 or 4L60E-HD2 Reprogramming Kit™ which contains high rate forward and 3-4 clutch return springs to prevent centrifugal apply that burns 3-4 clutches.

With forward clutch clearance over .060” the piston will travel so far it will apply the coast clutch causing a bind-down on the 3-4 shift that will burn the band. Wrong clutch counts, 4 cyl’s use only one clutch, or wrong bottom forward clutch apply plate will also cause these kinds of problems. Applying air to forward clutch should only apply the forward clutch. When applying air to the coast clutch it is normal for both for-ward and coast clutches to come on.
Overrun clutch clearance is determined at a time when the forward clutches are on. To check the clearance stack drum complete, but leave out the sprag assembly. Next, ap-ply the forward clutch using the forward hole on the input shaft. Then reach into drum with scribe and lift up and down on a coast clutch plate. It should move .030”- .050”. Forward clutch clearance determines coast clutch clearance.

LISTEN UP: As a matching set install the Boost Springs, the original bottom and top pressure plate and the original snap ring. By using thinner friction and steel as many as 8 friction can be installed. If for any reason you do use the boost springs and matching parts, you must install Special Spring Set: T-Go 7-CS
Boost springs are necessary to prevent centrifugal apply above 5000 rpm. 82 to 85 models did not have these springs and that is one reason you find the 3-4 clutches blacked out. Injected engines should always have boost springs, and for revs above 5500 the T-Go 7-CS springs should be installed. 700’s and 93 and 94 4L60E’s in police and taxis use make a lot of 3-2 downshifts. In-stalling the 7-CS kit will greatly increase 3-4 clutch life. Order TransGo part 7-CS.
If Boost springs are not used install Special T-Go Springs made for High RPM and any clutch stack height.

Hold here
With inner race held, the outer race should freewheel
in the direction of arrow.
Sprag installed backwards will cause no movement in D4 or D3. It will start off in L2 position or low. Backwards or stick, it will lock down on the 3-4 shift burning the band.

Low Roller Clutch
Hold
Hold support, inner race should free-wheel in the direc-tion of the arrow.
One-way clutches must freewheel in the proper direction and lock in the proper direc-tion. They should also be checked for spring load or tension. While rotating the races in the freewheel direction they should have some drag. This is checking the springs that load the roller or strut. There should be some drag in the freewheel direction.

Lockup piston friction lining is differ-erent. The on-off lockup system uses
a Kevlar type paper lining. PWM lockup systems use a Graphitic type
of friction material. This system brought about additional heat and
much more converter slip codes. Us-ing a Kevlar paper lining with this
regulated converter apply oil (PWM slip) strategy resulted in early failure.
The graphitic lining is rough and porous.
Dampener assemblies were beefed up and had additional rivets.

Bulge Lockup plate has approx. 5/8” bulge to accommodate the larger six spring damper assembly. Notice more rivets added.
Note: Don’t waste this core on early models, this core is hard to come by.
5/8” Bulge
1999 converter lockup plates use a woven graphitic lining that can be partially applied (slip) and still resist burn-up. The lockup strategy with this type of lining will allows a 30-50 RPM slip at cruising speeds.
With out fixing the Valve Body with SK® Kit in-stallation of converter with other type of lining can cause complaints. With SK Kit installed the light throttle and cruise slip is discontinued so that any type of lockup plate lining works just fine. This means it’s OK to use a 700 converter.
Identification: ’99 converter has a large bulge approx. 5/8” on the front cover. 99 up convert-ers are not interchangeable with earlier units.

The Technology IS the Ethic If the sign on the building or any advertis-ing says, “Transmissions” that is declara-tion to the Universe that you know how to fix them.
When a product or service is offered, the offer itself is a specific claim by the seller that he is accepting the MORAL and TECHNICAL responsibility for correct function, for a reasonable length of time, in exchange for money.
Regardless what you may call your repair, the job is in your shop to have the com-plaints and failures corrected. It doesn’t matter how honest you are, as a person, if you do not fix the causes of the com-plaints and failures where is the ethic?
Each transmission develops 3 to 5 com-plaints and failures you see over and over again and again. A service is ethical and deserving to the exact extent that your service corrects the causes of those complaints and failures; and does not include a whole bunch of parts that were not needed.
No more and no less,

Stone Age Engineering
Current information can only reach you thru the senses of perception-Seeing-Hearing-Tasting-Smelling and Touching. Your brain mixes current information with the total of your experience and forms an opinion. [A guess with common sense] Your opinion or guess is made 8 times more accurate by attaching a pressure gauge. With a scanner your opinion will get 4 times more accurate. Both: Is 8x4= 32 times more accurate. Because a scanner hooks up fast the tendency is to use it more and gauge less. 1.A scanner will tell you what the trans
should be doing. A gauge tells you what it IS doing.
2.A gauge will ALWAYS tell when you need a scanner, but a scanner will not always tell you need a gauge.
3.It’s 50 years later and a gauge is still the champ.
Why is the gauge still champ? Because a gauge will tell you if pressure rise is working and scanner will only tell you if it is being commanded. Why is knowing that so Important? Time, Time, Your time, Shops time and Shops Stress. Time spent working on a slip, shifting or lockup is totally wasted un-til you KNOW pressure rise is working. You should read this 3 times-OUT LOUD.
Checking Pressure Rise
Never work on a slip, shift or lockup complaint without Seeing if Pres-sure Rise is, or isn't OK.
Attach Pressure Gauge; Place se-lector in “D”. Pressure must be above minimum listed for the trans. If below min, [worn pump or very hot, bring RPM up a couple hundred rpm above idle with the throttle. If min in “D” and “R” is attained at 800 rpm, pump is usually OK even if worn. At idle, or 800 rpm if needed, record the pressure in every selec-tor position. With that record as your reference there is 3 Questions to ask. 1.Does pressure change by selec-
tor range? 2.Does it change with more throttle. 3.Does it go max with no Volts?
REV:: 30 to 50 lbs more than “D”. When throttle is added, in Reverse, Pressure Must increase at least an-other 100 lbs. [Exceptions are 604—42LE]

Ancient Wisdom From Stone Age Engineers
Factory specs are what you use until you find out what works better. Without factory specs how would you know where to start?
FORWARD: Many trans’s com-mand more pressure in 2 or 1. At idle or prox 800 move selector to 2 and then 1. If pressure goes up ei-ther or both places, that is evidence that PR is OK. If it stays the same it is still OK. If it is less in 2 or 1, that would indicate a leak to a fric-tion unit. With Selector in “D”: Apply Foot brake, add throttle. Pressure should at least double between idle and just under stall [1500-2200 rpm]. [Exception is Torqueflite which goes up 50%]
With Selector in “D”: While driving 50up mph Lift throttle which should bring pressure to min. Then turn the key off momentarily and back on again. While the key is off pres-sure should jump instantly to max., then back down to min when the key is turned back on.
Why Pressure rise is so important? If it’s not working: Low pressure, it will burn clutches with just a few hard throttle shifts. If it’s not working, High pressure, it’ll burn up gear train, for lack of lube, or destroy pump. Thanks for Listening, The Tech Team
