ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic control for a transmission has a main line regulator, a torque converter clutch relay valve and a torque converter clutch solenoid valve. During torque converter operation, the pressure regulator is subjected to a line pressure bias signal and supplies pressurized hydraulic fluid to a control system at a substantially constant pressure level. During torque converter clutch operation, the pressure regulator is subjected to an additional line pressure bias signal and a variable pressure bias signal from the torque converter clutch solenoid valve to provide a modulated pressure control whereby main pressure is varied proportionally with torque converter clutch apply pressure.
