Abstract
An automatic transmission is controlled by detecting engine rmp following a transmission downshift and comparing the detected engine speed with a predetermined speed value. If the detected speed does not exceed the predetermined value, the solenoids controlling the down-shift are maintained energized. If the detected speed exceeds the predetermined speed value, the solenoids are de-energized to prevent overrunning of the engine.
