1-2 Shift Solenoid (SS) Valve

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The PCM energizes (turns ON) the 1-2 SS valve. The PCM blocks the exhaust of 1-2 SS valve fluid to create high fluid pressure within the valve. High pressure at the 2-3 shift solenoid (SS) valve, at the end of the 1-2 shift valve, holds the valve in the upshifted position, while fluid from the 1-2 SS valve is routed to the end of the 3-4 shift valve.
