A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A and B Test

A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A and B Test





1. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A).
2. Choose Clutch Pressure Control (Linear) Solenoid A and B in Miscellaneous Test Menu on the HDS.
3. Test the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B with the HDS.
4. Follow instructions on the HDS.
^ If the test results are OK, the valves are OK.
^ If the test results are not OK, go to step 5.
5. Get the audio and navigation anti-theft codes, and write down the audio presets.
6. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then disconnect the positive cable from the battery.
7. Remove the battery hold-down bracket, then remove the battery cover, battery, and battery tray.
8. Remove the intake air duct and air cleaner housing,
9. Loosen the two bolts securing the battery base from under the vehicle, and remove the two bolts securing the battery base in the engine compartment, then remove the battery base.





10. Disconnect A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A connector and solenoid valve B connector.
11. Measure A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B resistances at each solenoid valve connector.
Standard: 3 - 10 Ohms
12. If the resistance of either solenoid valve is out of standard, replace A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
13. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the battery negative terminal to A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B connector terminal No. 2, and connect the battery positive terminal to the terminal No. 1.
^ If a clicking sound is heard, go to step 24.
^ If no clicking sound is heard, go to step 14 and remove A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve.





14. Remove the transmission upper mount bracket (A) and bracket plate (B).





15. Remove the harness clamp (C) from the clamp bracket (D), and remove A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
16. Remove the O-rings (E), 8 x 18 mm [1][2]ATF feed pipes (F), gasket (G), and 8 x 40 mm ATF feed pipe (H).





17. Connect the battery negative terminal to A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B connector terminal No. 2, and connect the battery positive terminal to the terminal No.1. Make sure A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B move.
18. Disconnect one of the battery terminals and check valve movement at the fluid passage in valve body mounting surface.
19. If either valve binds or moves sluggishly, or if the solenoid valve does not operate, replace A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B.
20. Check the fluid passage of the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve for dust and dirt, and clean the passage if necessary.
21. Place a new gasket on the transmission housing, then install the 8 x 18 mm [1][2]ATF feed pipes with their filter side into the transmission housing.
22. Install new O-rings over the feed pipes, and install the 8 x 40 mm [1][2]ATF feed pipe.
23. Install the new A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B, and harness clamp.
24. Check the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and B connectors for rust, dirt, or oil, then connect them securely.
25. Install the transmission upper mount bracket and bracket plate.
26. Install the battery base, then install the air cleaner housing and intake air duct.
27. Install the battery tray, battery, and battery cover, then secure the battery with its hold-down bracket.
28. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper, then assemble them and apply grease to prevent corrosion.
29. Enter the audio and navigation anti-theft codes, then enter the presets, and set the clock.
30. Do the power window control unit reset procedure.
