What does TCC stand for in a transmission?

Torque Convertor Clutch (TCC) — it controls the application and release of the torque convertor clutch.

What is the difference between a transmission and a transaxle?

A transmission is a device which selectively increases or decreases the ratio of relative rotation between its input and output shafts, while a transaxle consists of a transmission and axle drive gears assembled in the same case.

TFT stands for Transmission Fluid Temperature; it indicates the temperature of the transmission fluid.

What is a Vapor Management Valve (VMV)?

A valve that controls the amount of fuel vapor burned in the engine.

This document is page 16 of an automotive reference glossary, covering terms alphabetically from "Torque Convertor" through "Variable Reluctance." It defines transmission-related terminology including Torque Convertor, Torque Convertor Clutch (TCC), Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT), Throttle Position (TP), Transmission Range (TR), Traction Control (TC), Transaxle, Transmission, Transmission Control Indicator Lamp (TCIL), Transmission Control Switch (TCS), Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS), and Technical Service Bulletin (TSB). It also defines emissions and engine terms such as Three Way Catalytic Convertor (TWC), Three Way + Oxidation Catalytic Convertor (TWC+OC), Two Valve (2V), Valve, Vapor Management Valve (VMV), Variable Load Control Module (VLCM), and Variable Reluctance. The right edge of the scan shows the beginning of an adjacent page containing further glossary entries (VECI Label, VLCM, VMV, VOM, VPWR, VREF, VSS, WAC, WOT, and warm-up related terms), though these are mostly cut off. A reader can use this page to look up abbreviations and terminology commonly used in Ford EEC (Electronic Engine Control) and transmission diagnostic literature. The document is undated and not vehicle-specific.
