Abstract
An electronic control for a vehicle transmission having a clutch, the engagement of which is controlled in response to a clutch engagement signal. An electronic speed ratio logic for selection of the appropriate transmission gear ratio can produce a disengagement signal which overrides the engagement signal to cause disengagement of the clutch. A limiter is activated by a gear change signal from the logic to produce a limit signal which partially overrides the engagement signal to prevent full engagement of the clutch when the disengagement signal ceases, and the gear change signal is in operation.
