Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Testing and Inspection
1. Disconnect the Apr clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B connectors.
2. Measure the resistance between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals of A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
STANDARD: Approx. 5 ohms
3. If the resistance of either Apr clutch pressure control solenoid is out of specification, replace the Apr clutch pressure control solenoid valve A/B
assembly.
4. Connect the No. 1 terminal of Apr clutch pressure control solenoid valve A (and B) to the battery positive terminal, and connect the No. 2 terminal
to the battery negative terminal. A clicking sound should be heard.
5. If not, remove the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A/B assembly.
6. Check the fluid passage of the Apr clutch pressure control solenoid valves for dust and dirt.
7. Connect the No. 1 terminal of A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B to the battery positive terminal, and connect the No. 2 terminal
to the battery negative terminal. Make sure both valves move.
8. Disconnect one of the battery terminals and check valve movement.
NOTE: You can see valve movement through the fluid passage in the mounting surface of the Apr clutch pressure control solenoid valve A/B
assembly body.
9. If either valve binds, or moves sluggishly, or if the Apr clutch pressure control solenoid does not operate, replace the Apr clutch pressure control
solenoid valve A/B assembly.
