Start Clutch Pressure Control

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The hydraulic-controlled start clutch, like a torque converter, controls smooth starting-off and creeping in D and R. The PCM inputs signals from the sensors and the switches, and actuates the CVT clutch pressure control solenoid valve to regulate the clutch reducing pressure, and the clutch reducing pressure controls the start clutch.
