PINCHED TCC SOLENOID WIRES - THM 700-R4 TRANSMISSION
Beginning November 1, 1982, all THM 700-R4 transmissions were built with a special washer on the valve
body. This washer is used to hold the TCC solenoid wires in place to prevent pinching them during assembly and testing (see illustration).
SERVICE INFORMATION
1.
This washer is for assembly plant use only and is not a service part.
2.
If a transmission was built with this washer, reuse it during service to reduce the possibility of pinched solenoid wires.
3.. If this washer is used, be certain to route the TCC solenoid wires around it as shown..
NOTICE:
For transmissions built without this part, do not try to add a washer during service. (If a washer any thicker than the production part is used,
the case threads may strip out when the valve body bolt is torqued.)
