Removal And Installation: Solenoid: Removal
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE:
Failure to match the replacement solenoid service band to the original solenoid can cause damage to the transmission or erratic engagements and shifts.
NOTE:
The solenoids that are being re-used must be marked during the removal and reinstalled in the exact bore location.
NOTE:
While removing and installing solenoids, never handle the plastic connector.
- Using the scan tool Transmission Solenoid Identification Number (IDN) function, retrieve the solenoid base part number and stamping number. Refer to: Transmission Description - System Operation and Component Description .
- Remove the main control valve body. Refer to: Main Control Valve Body .
- Remove the bolts and the park lock solenoid.
- Remove the solenoid body from the main control valve body. Refer to: Main Control Valve Body .
-
NOTE: The solenoids are calibrated from the factory and are not all the same. Failure to mark the solenoids to the ports they were originally in can result in mixing the solenoids and can cause damage to the transmission or a harsh shift.NOTE: Note the position of the components before removal.
