ABSTRACT:
An electrohydraulic control device for a drive train of a vehicle including an engine, a transmission, a source of pressurized fluid, and an input clutch driving connected between the engine and the transmission. The device includes a control lever or handle having a control member progressively manually movable between first and second positions, wherein the transmission is adapted to responsibly shift between a FORWARD and a REVERSE gear ratio in response to movement of the control member from the first position to the second position. An electronic control module is adapted to determine a transmission clutch relative speed as a function of the transmission output speed and the transmission input speed and responsively engage and disengage the input clutch during a directional shift.
