TRANSMISSION WITH ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECTOR AND PULL OUT OF PARK CONTROL LOGIC

A vehicle includes a transmission, and an Electronic Transmission Range Selection (ETRS) system. The transmission has a plurality of clutches, a park pawl, and a park sensor. The ETRS system has a controller and an electronic range selector device. The controller is programmed to detect a delay in pull out of the park pawl from a park position and to control an action of the vehicle in response to the delay by receiving an electronic range request signal to shift from a park operating range to another operating range; receiving a park pawl position signal from the park sensor; determining if pull out of the park pawl from the park position has not occurred by a predetermined time; and increasing one of a line pressure, a clutch pressure, and an idle speed if pull out of the park pawl from the park position has not occurred by the predetermined time.
