    Abstract: A method of operating a motor vehicle transmission includes measuring an operating temperature of the transmission, the transmission having at least seven torque transmitting mechanisms and at least three planetary gear sets, each planetary gear set having three gear members; determining if the transmission is in a park mode; determining if the operating temperature is below a predetermined threshold; if the operating temperature is below the predetermined threshold and the transmission is the park mode, implementing a shift delay mitigation process that includes engaging a fourth torque transmitting mechanism and a firth torque transmitting mechanism of the at least seven torque transmitting mechanisms so that they are locked to a ground to prevent a first gear member of the first planetary gear set from moving, which, in turn, prevents an input torque being transferred to a park pawl.

    Abstract: A vehicle includes an engine, a transmission with a shift valve, an alternator, an auxiliary battery, a voltage sensor operable to measure an auxiliary voltage, and an electronic transmission range selection (ETRS) system. The ETRS system includes a controller, and also an electronic range selector device that transmits an electronic range request signal to the controller to request the shift of the transmission to a requested operating range. The controller executes a method to predict a loss of auxiliary power aboard the vehicle, and to control an action of the vehicle in response to the predicted loss of auxiliary power. The electronic range request signal is received from the range selector device and auxiliary voltage. The controller calculates a slope of a decrease in the measured auxiliary voltage. A control action is executed with the alternator is in the charging state and the calculated slope exceeds a calibrated slope threshold.

    Abstract: A method of preventing an automatic engine stop includes: determining a pressure difference between an accumulator fill volume and a fluid conduit in selective fluid communication with the accumulator fill volume; determining a change in the accumulator fill volume from the determined pressure difference; adding the change in the accumulator fill volume to a previous estimate of the accumulator fill volume to determine a current estimate of the accumulator fill volume; comparing the current estimate of the accumulator fill volume to a predetermined threshold; and preventing an automatic engine stop if the current estimate of the accumulator fill volume is below the predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: A one-way clutch includes a clutch body and body bore. A clutch plate stack includes first, second, and third clutch plates, the first and third clutch plates fixed to the clutch body. The second clutch plate rotates axially on a longitudinal axis. The first clutch plate includes a first strut cavity and the second clutch plate includes a second strut cavity. A forward strut is rotatably connected to the second clutch plate and biased toward the first clutch plate. The forward strut when positioned in the first strut cavity defines a clutch engaged position preventing second clutch plate rotation in a first rotational direction, while allowing rotation in a second rotational direction. A reverse strut slidably disposed in a strut bore extends through the third clutch plate, is partially positioned in the second strut cavity and is displaced in the strut bore during rotation of the second clutch plate.
