Manarious asked
where Solenoid A is located on the transmission because he already looked at the documentation you have on it and still could not find it. Just a heads up.
And if the resistor "is in no shape or form involved in a control function in respect of the transmission," then why does removing the resistor cause the transmission to shift hard and lose the ability to perform engine braking? Seems to me it must control something in the transmission since without the resistor things bind up and become uncomfortable. Replacing the resistor with a properly functioning one solves these problems.
Honest!
