Shift Solenoid: Service and Repair

Removal
1. Disconnect negative cable from battery.
2. Drain engine coolant and A/T fluid.





3. Remove A/T fluid cooler pipe (1) from A/T with hose connected.
4. Remove radiator with cooling fan, fan shroud, A/T fluid cooler hoses and A/T fluid pipe.
5. Remove A/T side cover.





6. Disconnect solenoid couplers.
7. Remove solenoid valves.

NOTE:
^ Don't remove throttle pressure control solenoid valve.
^ Remove TCC solenoid valve, shift solenoid valve No.2 and shift solenoid valve No.1 in that order.

Installation
1. Install shift solenoid No.1 (3), shift solenoid No.2 (4) and TCC solenoid (5) in that order.
Tightening torque
Valve body bolt (a): 6.8 Nm (0.68 kgf-m, 4.9 ft. lbs.)





2. Connect solenoid couplers.
3. Clean mating surface of A/T side cover and A/T case.





4. Apply sealant to mating surface of A/T side cover and A/T case.
"A": Sealant 99000-31160 (SUZUKI BOND NO.1216)
5. Install A/T side cover (3).

NOTE: Don't reuse bolts (A).





6. Install radiator with cooling fan, fan shroud, A/T fluid cooler hoses and pipe (1).
Tightening torque
A/T fluid pipe union bolt: 27 Nm (2.7 kgf-m, 19.5 ft. lbs.)
A/T side cover bolt: 18 Nm (1.8 kgf-m, 13.0 ft. lbs.)

NOTE: Make sure to use new gaskets (2) for A/T fluid pipe union bolts.

7. Refill A/T fluid.
8. Refill engine coolant.
9. Verify that there is no engine coolant leakage or A/T fluid leakage.

Solenoid Valve Inspection





^ Shift solenoid No.1, No.2 and TCC solenoid
Check resistance between terminal and solenoid body.
Shift solenoid No. 1, No. 2 and TCC solenoid resistance at 20°C, 68°F
Standard: 11 - 15 ohms





^ Throttle pressure control solenoid
Check resistance between each terminals.
Throttle pressure control solenoid resistance at 20°C, 68°F
Standard: 3 - 5 ohms

Operation Check
Shift solenoid valves No.1 and No.2





1. Apply oiler (1) to solenoid valve (2) and give compression by hands and then check to be sure that transmission fluid from oiler does not come out of holes (A) in solenoid valve when battery (3) voltage is not conducted.
2. Under the same conditions as above, conduct battery voltage and then make sure that fluid (B) comes out with vigor. If check result is not as described, replace shift solenoid valve.

TCC solenoid valve





1. Apply oiler (1) to solenoid valve (2) and give compression by hands and then check to be sure that transmission fluid from oiler does not come out of holes (A) in solenoid valve when battery (3) voltage is conducted.
2. Under the same conditions as above, release battery voltage and then make sure that fluid (B) comes out with vigor. If check result is not as described, replace shift solenoid valve.
