Shift Solenoid Valves (1-2 and 2-3)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Yukon and 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Both shift solenoid valves, which are normally open, are energized by the PCM and block fluid from exhausting. This maintains the signal A fluid pressure at the 1-2 shift solenoid valve and signal B fluid pressure at the 2-3 shift solenoid valve.
