ABSTRACT:
A shift valve comprises a spool having a downshift position for establishing a lower speed ratio and an upshift position for establishing a higher speed ratio, a plug, and a spring between the spool and plug. The spool has a pressure acting area which governor pressure acts on, while the plug has a pressure acting area which throttle pressure acts on. At low throttle pressures, the spool moves from the downshift position to the upshift position when a predetermined vehicle speed is attained. At higher throttle pressures, the spool moves between the downshift and upshift position depending upon the governor pressure and throttle pressure. The shift valve has a port formed therein which admits a downshift position hold signal fluid pressure (i.e., line pressure) between the spool and plug so as to hold the spool to the downshift position thereof.
