Check the resistance in S1-S5
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Volvo S40, 2003 Volvo S40, 2002 Volvo S40, 2001 Volvo S40, and 2000 Volvo S40. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Readings should be taken at approximately 20°C.
Solenoid S1
Measure the resistance between the pin in the solenoid connector and the transmission ground terminal.
Correct value: 12-16 Ω.
Solenoids S2-S5
Measure the resistance between the pin in the solenoid connector and the transmission ground terminal.
Correct value: 11-15 Ω.
If the resistance of any of solenoids S1-S5 is incorrect
Replace the solenoid according to Replacing solenoids S1-S5 .
