The "TCC release switch malfunction" typically refers to an issue with the Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) system in a vehicle's transmission. This malfunction indicates that the switch responsible for engaging or disengaging the torque converter clutch is not functioning properly, which can lead to poor vehicle performance, slipping, or overheating. It may trigger warning lights on the dashboard and could result in reduced fuel efficiency or transmission issues. Addressing this malfunction usually requires diagnostic testing and potential repair or replacement of the faulty components.

Where is the tcc release switch circuit located for a cavalier and what does it look like?

The TCC *solenoid* for my 1985 (very similar, probably the same) is inside a cover plate on the side of the transmission (AT125?). There are 12 or 16 bolts that hold the plate on, and the TCC solenoid is inside there. Not hard to do, just hard to get to without a lift.

Is a tcc solenoid switch under vacuum?

A TCC (Torque Converter Clutch) solenoid switch is typically not under vacuum; it operates using hydraulic pressure from the transmission fluid. The solenoid controls the engagement and disengagement of the torque converter clutch, allowing for improved fuel efficiency and smoother driving. While vacuum can be relevant in other automotive systems, TCC solenoids primarily rely on electrical signals and hydraulic pressure.
