Transmission Solenoid replacement
Can the solenoids be replaced without dropping the valve body?
Anybody have a copy of the procedure they would be willing to post? |

Nope, the body has to come out - they are on top of it.
I also suggest having a spare gasket ready. The two parts of valve body are separated by a paper gasket. It becomes brittle over time - very easy to break the old one during valve body r/r. Let us know the results of the line pressure test... |

Thanks. It seems unanimous between the three of you helping - needs a pressure test.
I will post back. Can you point out which port I should use? I'm assuming the port that shows band pressure would be the one to watch??? looks like I need to either buy the FSM or pick up the book from Level 10 or similar. I'd hate to drop a ball bearing in the valve body and not know where to put it back. |
