The torque converter control valve may basically be configured to form a differential pressure, to supply the residual oil pressure to the working oil pressure of the torque converter, and to reduce the torque converter supply oil pressure by feedback of the torque converter discharge oil pressure during the engagement control of the lock- have.
The valve body constituting the torque converter control valve may include a first port receiving line pressure; A second port for supplying the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first port to the working hydraulic pressure of the torque converter; A third port receiving a part of the hydraulic pressure supplied to the second port as a control pressure; A fourth port receiving a torque converter discharge hydraulic pressure from the lock-up signal and switch valve as a control pressure; And a fifth port for discharging the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first port.
