Shift Solenoid E (SSE)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

SSE  is an ON/OFF solenoid. When SSE  is in the ON position, SSD  controls the clutch regulator and latch valves to apply the low/reverse clutch. When SSE  is in the OFF position, SSD  controls the clutch regulator and latch valves to apply the overdrive (4, 5, 6) clutch. Refer to HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS  for additional information.

SSE  is supplied hydraulic pressure from the SOL FD circuit. When SSE  is OFF, the solenoid supply is blocked and the outlet port (ON/OFF SIG circuit) is connected to the exhaust port. When SSE  is ON, the exhaust port is blocked and the solenoid supply is connected to the outlet port (ON/OFF SIG circuit), supplying pressure to the clutch control bypass valve.
