• Ignition off
• Disconnect transmission connector C.

  Check solenoid S4 by measuring the resistance between transmission connector terminal #C4 and the transmission housing. The ohmmeter should read 11-15 Ω at 20° C.

  Other information: 

  • To disconnect the transmission connectors, see Connectors, transmission, disconnecting / connecting
  • For information about signals, see Signal description. Transmission control module (TCM) .
