they are solenoid that control stuff (tranny related) in your car. That's my limit of of knowledge on the duty solenoid A,B, and C.

If you have to replace them, A and B will run you at 150, and 300. Not sure which is 150.

Sol. A does have a resistor which is placed behind the batt. Sometimes, it will fail. You can replace it for a buck at radio shack or get it from the dealer at around 50. Hope that helps

Are you getting a code for a particular duty solenoid? Solenoid "A" regulates line pressure. I can't remember what B and C do. If you're getting a code for "A" it could be your resistor behind your battery.

solenoid problem

Post this question on the Eddycat's Garage section, Eddy will know.

I am not sure what the solenoids do individually. There appears to be 5 of them, solenoids A,B and C, and 1 and 2.

I think the Technical Service Bulletins refer to them as valve bodies. There may be good news, I think these can be serviced without stripping the tranny off the car.

Ask Eddy, he will know.
