Duty Solenoid C

[bcpianoman]

My mechanic and I just did a 4.44 swap on a ’92 using a 1998 Forester transmission. It’s the second 4.44 swap we’ve done and the first one has worked just fine for over a year now. With the second one, though, it’s binding a bit. It’s most noticeable when turning sharply at low speed. I’m getting a Transmission Code 24 – Duty Solenoid C code.

My mechanic took the car back into his shop and pulled the transmission pan. The filter had been rubbing against the bottom of the pan because the pan must have been hit and bent up when the donor car was totaled. He fixed that and replaced the Duty Solenoid C with a new one. But I’m still having the same problem.

I'm hoping to give this car to my sister who lives 2,500 miles away. She'll be here in less than a week so I need to fix this problem right away.

Any ideas?
