Exam 23: Honda Transmissions

Tech A states that the B7XA transmission utilizes a servo to operate the reverse shift fork. Tech B states that the transmission operates reverse directly by linkage to the gear shifter. Who is correct?

Tech A states that the shift solenoids of a B7XA transmission are either on or off. Tech B states that the shift solenoids of a B7XA transmission have no pulse width modulation. Who is correct?

Identify the gear(s) that are free to rotate on the mainshaft on multiple needle bearing assemblies of a Honda B7XA transmission.

The secondary shaft in the Honda B7XA transmission holds the reverse gear and the reverse selector.

In which of the following is the idler gear free to rotate on a needle bearing assembly?

Identify the gear in which the shift solenoids A, B, and C of a B7XA transmission are in Off condition.

In a B7XA transmission, two solenoids are used for ________.

A vehicle comes into the shop with the MIL on and a harsh shifting transmission. The vehicle is scanned and the code is determined to be a code for the clutch pressure control solenoid. Tech A states that the pressure control solenoids can be replaced without disassembling the transmission. Tech B states that because the vehicle does not have a traditional transmission pan it will be necessary to disassemble the transmission to test the pressure control solenoid. Who is correct?

In which of the following is the idler gear free to rotate on a needle bearing assembly?

The mainshaft in the Honda B7XA contains the third and fourth gears.

The fourth gear of a Honda B7XA transmission is locked to the countershaft by the _______________.

Tech A states that Honda automatic transmissions are different from traditional automatics found in vehicles from other manufacturers. Tech B states that Honda automatic transmissions are the same as traditional automatics found in vehicles from other manufacturers. Who is correct?

In a B7XA transmission, the last solenoid is used for ________.

Saturn vehicles also used a transmission with helical cut gears to replace a planetary gear set.

Which of the following solenoids are used to help control the feel of the shifts in a B7XA transmission?

A vehicle comes in with the customer complaint of poor fuel economy. You test drive the vehicle and determine that the lock up torque converter is not functioning. Tech A states that the torque converter clutch solenoid could be the cause. Tech B states that the clutch pressure control solenoids can affect the lock up torque converter operation. Who is correct?

A vehicle comes into the shop with the customer complaining about their transmission not working correctly. You test drive the vehicle and find that 4th gear is slipping. Tech A states that the problem could be a bad solenoid A. Tech B states that the problem could be a cracked drum. Who is correct?

The 1/2 clutch assembly of a Honda B7XA transmission is in the middle of the ________.

In a B7XA transmission, the last solenoid is used for ________.

Tech A states that Honda automatic transmissions are different from traditional automatics found in vehicles from other manufacturers. Tech B states that Honda automatic transmissions are the same as traditional automatics found in vehicles from other manufacturers. Who is correct?
