Shift Solenoid Chart
1-2 Shift Solenoid Circuit
Circuit Description:
1-2 shift solenoid is attached to the valve body and is a normally open to exhaust valve. The PCM activates the 1-2 solenoid by grounding CKT
1222 with an internal quad-driver. 1-2 shift solenoid is "ON" in first and fourth gears and "OFF" in second and third gears. When "ON", the 1-2
shift solenoid redirects fluid to act on the shift valves.
