Introduction
Preface
After a one year black box phase, the 4F27E automatic transaxle offered in the Focus has been released for repair
in service. The course on the 4F27E Automatic Transaxle, TC3073016H was developed to give technicians the
skills and the required knowledge for correct diagnostics and successful repairs.
The course consists of the following Student Information publications:
Curriculum Training 4F27E Automatic Transaxle Design and Operation, CG 7859/S
Curriculum Training 4F27E Automatic Transaxle Diagnostics, CG 7860/S
This Student Information publication describes the transaxle control system including all its electronic
components, and gives important notes on transaxle diagnostics.
This Student Information publication is arranged in lessons and designed as a self-learning medium in line with the
new Ford global training concept.
Each lesson begins with a list of the objectives to be achieved in the course of the lesson and ends with test
questions to check learning process. The answers to these are to be found at the end of the Student Information
publication.
Please remember that our training literature has been prepared solely for FORD TRAINING PURPOSES.
Repair and adjustment operations MUST always be carried out according to the instructions and
specifications in the workshop literature.
Please make extensive use of the training courses offered by Ford Technical Training Centers to gain
extensive knowledge in both theory and practice.

Diagnostics/substitute function
When the PCM detects that the main regulating
valve remains switched on all the time, fault code
P0747 is set.
A main regulating valve which is switched on all
the time leads to slipping clutches at the time at
which the fault appears.
When this is detected, the main regulating valve is
switched off.
When the PCM detects that the main regulating
valve remains switched off all the time or is
temporarily disconnected, fault code P0746 or
P1760 is set.
A main regulating valve which is switched off all
the time leads to harsh gear changes.

Lesson 4 Actuators
Location
The air conditioning relay is located in the
battery junction box (BJB) in the engine
compartment.
Operation
The PCM applies ground to the control side of
the air conditioning relay depending on the air
conditioning control setting.
This actuates the relay (R11) and the air
conditioning compressor clutch is engaged.

Lesson 4 Actuators
Location
The selector lever shift lock solenoid is located
in the selector lever bracket.
1
Operation
When the ignition is switched on, the selector
lever shift lock solenoid is operated by
depressing the brake pedal (signal from the
stoplamp switch). This retracts the locking pin
and allows the selector lever to be moved out of
position P.

Operation
In selector lever position P the ground
connection to the solenoid is open. The locking
pin does not engage in the ignition lock. The
ignition key can be removed.
In all the other selector lever positions the
ground connection to the solenoid is closed. The
locking pin engages in the ignition lock. The
ignition key cannot be removed.

O/D indicator
Location
The O/D indicator is located in the instrument
cluster and colored green.
Operation
The O/D indicator is illuminated by the PCM
through the standard corporate protocoll (SCP)
databus after receiving the signal from the O/D
switch on the selector lever.

Location
The powertrain warning indicator is located in
the instrument cluster and is colored orange.
Operation
It flashes to tell the driver that the transaxle
control system is in the limited operation
strategy or that the transmission fluid
temperature is too high.
