A method for controlling slip in an EMCC equipped torque converter is
provided. The method determines whether an EMCC slip rate exceeds a
predetermined RPM, determines whether a crankshaft RPM acceleration
exceeds a predetermined rate, reduces an output torque of an engine in
response to one of said EMCC slip rate exceeding said predetermined RPM
and said crankshaft RPM acceleration exceeding said predetermined rate;
and disables said output torque of an engine in response to said EMCC slip
rate being less than said predetermined RPM and said crankshaft RPM
acceleration being less than said predetermined rate.
