PURPOSE:To draw out the optimum shift points from a single shift map and give them to a high speed cam operation and low speed cam operation. CONSTITUTION:A TCU 8 judges that the situation is in low speed cam operation in case no high-speed cam operation signal SCH is fed from an ECU 7 or in case the engine speed Ne sensed by an Ne sensor 11 is lower than the specified level, and the output value ...

PURPOSE:To prevent the generation of shift hunting of a transmission even in the combination of an electronically controlled engine with a throttle and a hydraulically controlled automatic transmission. CONSTITUTION:A controller 3 controls throttle opening basically through an actuator 4 so as to be the opening corresponding to the stepped-on quantity of an accelerator pedal 5, detected by a poten...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an engine speed control device which corrects an engine speed to a specified value when it is reduced through operation of an accessory at the time of up-shifting. SOLUTION: An engine speed control device increases rotational speed of an engine 11 when it gets less than a specified value B during shifting. Accessory operation sensing means 77a senses operation of a...
