A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A Test
A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A Test
1. Connect the HDS to the DLC, (A).
2. Choose Clutch Pressure Control (Linear) Solenoid A in Miscellaneous Test Menu on the HDS.
3. Test the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A with the HDS.
^ If the valve tests OK, the test is complete. Disconnect the HDS.
^ If the valve does not test OK, follow the instructions on the HDS.
^ If the valve does not test OK, and the HDS does not determine the cause, go to step 4.
4. Get the customer's radio (and navigation) anti-theft codes, and write down the radio presets.
5. Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery, then disconnect the positive terminal.
6. Remove the battery hold-down bracket, and remove the battery and battery tray.
7. Remove the intake manifold cover, intake air duct, resonator, and air cleaner housing.
8. Remove the battery base and battery base bracket.
9. Disconnect the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector.
10. Measure the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A resistance at the connector terminals.
Standard: 3 - 10 Ohms
^ If the resistance is out of standard, replace the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A.
^ If the resistance is within the standard, go to step 11.
11. Connect the negative battery terminal to the solenoid valve A connector terminal No. 2, and connect the positive battery terminal to the connector terminal No. 1.
^ If a clicking sound is heard, the valve is OK. Reconnect the connector, and install all removed parts.
^ If no clicking sound is heard, go to step 12.
12. Remove the nuts securing the shift cable bracket (A).
13. Remove the spring clip/washer (B) and control pin (C), then separate the shift cable end (0) from the control lever (E).
14. Remove the bolt securing the harness cover (A).
15. Remove the harness clamp (B) from the harness cover/clamp bracket (C), disconnect the 4th clutch transmission fluid pressure switch connector (D), then remove the harness cover from the bracket.
16. Disconnect the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector (E), A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve B connector (F), solenoid harness connector, transmission range switch connector, ATF temperature sensor connector, output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector, input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor connector, and 3rd clutch transmission fluid pressure switch connector.
17. Remove the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B, ATF pipes (C), gasket (D), and O-rings. (E).
18. Check the fluid passage of the solenoid valve for contamination.
19. Connect the negative battery terminal to A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector terminal No. 2, and connect the positive battery terminal to the connector terminal No. 1. Make sure A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A moves.
20. Disconnect one of the battery terminals and check valve movement at the fluid passage in the valve body mounting surface. If the valve binds or moves sluggishly, or if the solenoid valve does not operate, replace the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
21. Clean the mounting surfaces and fluid passages of the solenoid valve body and solenoid valve cover.
22. Install the new solenoid valve body gasket on the solenoid valve cover, and install the ATF pipes with the filter end in the transmission housing. Install new O-rings over the ATF pipes.
23. Install the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
24. Install the harness cover on the cover bracket, and secure it with the bolt.
25. Chock the connectors for rust, dirt, or oil, clean or repair if necessary, then connect the connectors securely. Install the harness clamp on the bracket.
26. Attach the shift cable end to the control lever, then insert the control pin into the control lever hole through the shift cable end, and secure the control pin with the spring clip/washer,
27. Secure the shift cable bracket with the nuts.
28. Install the battery base bracket and battery base.
29. Install the air cleaner housing, resonator, intake air duct, and intake manifold cover.
30. Install the battery tray, battery, and battery hold down bracket, then connect the battery terminals.
31. Enter the radio and navigation anti-theft codes, then enter the radio presets, and set the clock.
32. Do the power window control unit reset procedure.
