Shift Solenoid Test
- When shift solenoids are removed from transaxle, verify valve function before reinstalling. Ensure ATF does not exhaust from solenoid-side oil passages when battery voltage is NOT applied. See Fig 1.
- Perform procedure in step 1) while applying battery voltage. Ensure ATF exhausts freely from solenoid-side oil passages. DO NOT reuse solenoid if oil flow is restricted.
- Shift solenoid circuit resistance can be checked with an ohmmeter at connector. With ignition switch in OFF position, disconnect solenoid harness connector. Place ohmmeter probes on terminals and measure solenoid resistance. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS . See SHIFT SOLENOID RESISTANCE table.
SHIFT SOLENOID RESISTANCE
| Solenoid | Ohms |
