DESCRIPTION:
The torque converter clutch (TCC) inside the torque converter, also referred
to as the "damper clutch" or "lockup clutch", functions to lock the input and
output sections of the torque converter together to provide improved fuel
economy.
If you are servicing a transaxle with either of the following conditions,
follow the repair procedure shown below:
