TV Cable:






- The TV Cable used with the THM 700-R4 transmission should not be thought of as an automatic downshift cable.

- The TV cable used on the THM 700-R4 controls line pressure, shift points, shift feel, part throttle downshifts and detent downshifts.

- The function of the cable is similar to the combined functions of a vacuum modulator and a detent cable.

- The TV cable operates the TV link and bracket in the transmission.
