ABSTRACT:
The transmission control module of an automatic transmission includes a shift control module adapted to command a gear or gear range increment or decrement in dependence upon the switching of an enable switch and of an upshift switch and a downshift switch, the switches being provided on the vehicle steering wheel. The performance of the engine can thereby be controlled by the driver. The transmission control module can also be operated in an automatic mode, a semiautomatic mode and a manual mode in dependence upon the mode selected by selecting means.
