Main Control - Overhaul: Assembly

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Ford Pickup, 2011 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2011 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2011 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE: Many components and surfaces in the main control valve body are precision machined. Use care when cleaning and assembling the upper and lower valve body or damage can occur to the machined surfaces.

  4. Clean and install the retaining clips, caps, valves and valve springs into the bores of the upper and lower valve body.
    1. Upper valve body
    2. Lower valve body
  5. Clean and install the 3 check balls, the 2 relief valves and the control valve inlet nozzle in the locations they were removed from.

  7. Position the separator plate on the upper valve body and install the 2 bolts.
    • Tighten the bolts to 11 Nm (97 lb-in).
  8. Install the 2 solenoid dampers in the lower valve body.

  11. Install the 26 main control bolts. Tighten the main control bolts from the inside out.
    • Tighten to 11 Nm (97 lb-in).
  12. NOTE: Solenoids are calibrated from the factory and are not all the same. To replace a solenoid, match the replacement solenoid type (normally high/normally low) and the band number with the original solenoid or harsh shifts or damage to the transmission can occur.

  13. Inspect the solenoid O-rings for damage and install new O-rings if needed. Inspect the solenoid screens for contamination and install new solenoids if needed. If new solenoids are needed, use the solenoid exploded view at the beginning of this procedure to identify which type (normally high/normally low) of solenoid it is and use the charts below to get the correct part number for the solenoid band number.
    SOLENOID BAND NUMBER

    Solenoid Band Number Normally High Solenoid Part Number
    2 BC3Z-7G383-K
    3 BC3Z-7G383-L
    4 BC3Z-7G383-M
    5 BC3Z-7G383-N
    SOLENOID BAND NUMBER

    Solenoid Band Number Normally Low Solenoid Part Number
    2 BC3Z-7G383-S
    3 BC3Z-7G383-T
    4 BC3Z-7G383-U
    5 BC3Z-7G383-V
    1. O-rings
    2. Screens
    3. Solenoid band number
  14. Position the 7 solenoids in the main control valve body in the same ports they were numbered and removed from.

  16. Install the solenoid retainer and the 7 bolts.
    • Tighten to 11 Nm (97 lb-in).
  17. Install the manual control valve in the main control and install the E-clip on the manual control valve.
