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.
Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection
- Verify the conditions listed below do not exist. Carefully inspect the control solenoid valve assembly connectors and pins (1, 2, 4, 6) for the condition. Repair or replace as necessary.
- Damage
- Bent pins
- Debris
- Broken retaining tab
- Contamination
- Verify there is no metallic debris inside the connectors near the terminal pins. Clean as necessary.
- Verify the control solenoid valve assembly solenoid leads (3) do not have contamination or metallic debris. Clean as necessary.
- Verify the resistance between the leads of each solenoid valve is within the range in the table below, with the solenoid valves at room temperature. If the resistance of any solenoid valve is not within range, replace the Control Valve Body Assembly.
- Inspect the 2 control solenoid valve assembly filter plate retaining tabs (5) for cracks and ensure proper tension when filter plate is attached.
The connector on the TCC pressure control solenoid valve (8) will be either clear/transparent or yellow. The clear/transparent connector will have a color contrast when compared to the connectors on pressure control solenoid valve 2 (11) and pressure control solenoid valve 4 (12).
| Solenoid Name | Illustration Number | Expected Resistance Ξ© |
|---|---|---|
| Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 3 | 7 | 4.55 - 5.75 |
| Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 5 | 8 | 4.55 - 5.75 |
| TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Valve | 9 | 3.42 - 4.18 Clear/transparent Connector 4.55 - 5.75 Yellow Connector |
| Shift Solenoid Valve 1 | 10 | 16.2 - 19.8 |
| Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 2 | 11 | 4.55 - 5.75 |
| Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 4 | 12 | 4.55 - 5.75 |
| Line Pressure Control Solenoid Valve | 13 | 4.55 - 5.75 |

- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
