Shift Solenoid: Testing and Inspection

Shift Solenoid Valve B Test





1. Disconnect the connector from the shift solenoid valve B.
2. Measure shift solenoid valve B resistance at the solenoid valve connector (blown).
STANDARD: 12 - 25 ohms
3. Replace the shift solenoid valve B if the resistance is out of standard.
4. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the No. 2 terminal of the shift solenoid valve B connector to the battery positive terminal, and connect the No. 1 terminal to the battery negative terminal. A clicking sound should be heard. Replace the shift solenoid valve B if no clicking sound is heard.

Shift Solenoid Valves A and C Test
1. Remove the starter.





2. Disconnect the shift control solenoid valve A and C connectors.
3. Measure the shift solenoid valve A and C resistance at each solenoid valve connector.
STANDARD: 12 - 25 ohms
4. Replace shift solenoid valve A or C if the resistance is out of standard.
5. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the No. 2 terminal of the shift solenoid valve A or C connector to the battery positive terminal, and connect the No. 1 terminal to the battery negative terminal. A clicking sound should be heard. Replace shift solenoid valve A or C if no clicking sound is heard.
