(1) Features
1. All gears use the helical type and high strength materials.

- The helical type gear prevents the axial gear missing and provides less noise.

2. The semi-remote control type gear shift mechanism is used to prevent incorrect shifting.
3. To improve the shifting performance, 3-piece triple cone is used for 1/2 shift.

- TSM54/52 transmission uses the inertia lock type key to make smooth gear engagement and to
provide silent gear engagement.

4. The synchronizing devices are installed in 1/2, 3/4, 5/R gears. To prevent the double engagement,
the independent interlock devices are installed.
5. The clutch release system is available to use CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder) or Fork type according
to the vehicle model.

2) Function of N Switch
(1) Aids a smooth start of the vehicle by raising the RPM during the gear
shifting when the engine is cold.
When the vehicle is trying to start from the stopped state (vehicle speed below 3 km/h), the N switch
determines the shifting timing by using the clutch switch and the N switch. It raises the engine RPM (100
~ 200 rpm). Operation conditions are as follows.
- The vehicle speed is at the stopped state (Vehicle speed below 3km/h detection).
- While depressing the clutch (Clutch switch detection).
- The gear lever is at a position other than neutral (N switch detection).
- Start the vehicle while depressing the clutch pedal (Clutch switch detection).
- The RPM increases in accordance with the temperature of the engine coolant
(Engine coolant temperature sensor detection).
appx. 100 rpm increase
appx. 100 ~ 170 rpm increase
appx. 80C (normal temperature of the engine coolant): around 200 rpm
- When the gear has been smoothly shifted and the vehicle speed exceeds 3km/h, it returns to the
previous operation interval of the engine RPM.
In case of Actyon, the N switch signal is transmitted to the instrument panel, and then the instrument
panel transmits it to the engine ECU through the CAN communication.

(2) Detects the position of the shifting lever for the HDC operation
among ABS functions.
The HDC function operates only if the M/T shift lever is in forward or reverse position. Please refer to the
ABS section for the specific information related to the HDC.

Variant Coding Related to N Switch

The N switch transmits information to the ECU through the CAN communication while New Rexton is
connected to the ECU through wires. Thus, if you set the variant coding in the engine ECU, you must do
it differently, and you must set the variant coding differently according to the vehicle category and
specification as below.
