Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Component Resistance
Connect DMM between specified terminals at component or at transaxle in-line 20-pin connector to transaxle. Measure individual component resistance at specified temperature. See Figure and Figure . See COMPONENT RESISTANCE . If resistance is not as specified, replace appropriate component. See Fig 2 .
| Component | Pass Through Pins | Resistance At 68°F (20°C) | Resistance At 190°F (88°C) | Resistance To Ground (Case) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve | A, E | 19-24 Ohms | 24-31 Ohms | Greater Than 250 K Ohms | ||
| 2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve | B, E | 19-24 Ohms | 24-31 Ohms | Greater Than 250 K Ohms | ||
| Torque Converter Clutch Pulse Width Modulation Solenoid Valve | T, E | 10-12 Ohms | 13-15 Ohms | Greater Than 250 K Ohms | ||

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
