Solenoid Body

The solenoid body contains 7 solenoids. 5 shift solenoids (SSA, SSB, SSC, SSD and SSE), torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoid and line pressure control (LPC) solenoid. The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) is also located in the solenoid body. The solenoid body is serviced as an assembly.

CAUTION: If the solenoid body ID and strategy does not match the solenoid body information in the PCM, transaxle damage or driveability concerns can occur.

The solenoid body has a unique strategy data file that must be downloaded to the PCM. there is a 7-digit solenoid body ID and a 13-digit solenoid body strategy for each solenoid body. Anytime a new solenoid body is installed or the transaxle is installed, the scan tool (PDS or IDS) must be used to get the solenoid body strategy data file and download it into the PCM.

If the PCM is replaced and the PCM data can not be inhaled or exhaled, the solenoid body ID and solenoid body strategy must be downloaded into the PCM.
