Shift Solenoid: Service and Repair
Lock-up Control Solenoid Valve -Shift Control Solenoid Valve A Assembly Test
1. Disconnect the 3P connector from the Lock-up control solenoid valve/shift control solenoid valve A assembly.
2. Measure the resistance of the Lock-up control solenoid valve between the No. 3 terminal of the 3P connector and body ground.
STANDARD: 12 - 25 ohms
3. Measure the resistance of the shift control solenoid valve A between the No. 1 terminal of the 3P connector and body ground.
STANDARD: 12 - 25 ohms
4. Replace the Lock-up control solenoid valve/shift control solenoid valve A assembly if either resistance is out of specification.
5. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the No. 1 terminal of the 3P connector to the battery positive terminal. A clicking sound should be
heard. Connect the No. 3 terminal to the battery positive terminal. A clicking sound should be heard. Replace the Lock-up control solenoid
valve/shift control solenoid valve A assembly if no sound is heard.
