Main Control Valve Body

G08411857


  1. G08411683
  2. Discard the specified component. Follow local disposal regulations.
    G08411860
    1. Check balls
    2. Solenoid damper
      G08411861
  3. G08411862
  4. NOTE: Remove the valves by tapping the valve body on the palm of the hand to slide the valves out of the bores or by threading a 4-mm bolt into the valves and pulling them out. It may be necessary to remove the valves and springs using a pick. If it is necessary to use a pick, use extreme caution to prevent damaging the valves or valve bores. If necessary, disassemble parts of the main control valve body in small groups. Take special care when handling the main control components, since they are the most precise and delicate parts of the transmission. Neatly arrange the parts as they are removed to avoid mixing similar pieces.
    NOTE: The bypass valve is held in with a spring-loaded retainer. Be careful not to lose the retainer when removing it.

    Use a pick to remove the bypass valve retainer. Screwdriver. Scriber.

    General Equipment: Magnet, 4-mm bolt.

    G08411863
  5. NOTE: Do not stone or polish any valves or damage to the valves can occur. If the valves do not move freely, install a new assembly.

    Clean the valves, springs and main control valve body. Visual check.

    G08411864
  6. NOTE: Do not stone or polish any valves or damage to the valves can occur. If the valves do not move freely during assembly, install a new valve body.

    For valve and spring locations refer to the VALVE BODY  illustration at the beginning of this procedure.

  7. G08411862
    1. Check balls
    2. Solenoid damper
      G08411861
  8. For disassembly and assembly of the solenoid body, refer to SOLENOID BODY  in this procedure.
    • Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

    Solenoid Body 

  9. If not previously done, separate the solenoid body from the valve body.
    G08411683
  10. Discard the specified component. Follow local disposal regulations.
    G08411860
  11. Discard the specified component. Follow local disposal regulations.
    G08411872
  12. Compress the valve springs and remove the retainers with a magnet. Remove the individual valves and springs from the solenoid body by tapping it on the palm of the hand to slide the valves out of the bores. Screwdriver.

    General Equipment: Magnet.

    G08411873
  13. NOTE: Be careful not to bend or twist the solenoid body leadframe or the solenoid terminals when removing the leadframe or damage can occur to the leadframe or the solenoids.

    Lift straight up evenly.

    G08411874
  14. NOTE: The solenoids are calibrated from the factory and are not all the same. Failure to mark the solenoids to the ports they were originally in can result in mixing the solenoids and can cause damage to the transmission or a harsh shift.

    Number the solenoids and the solenoid body to correspond with the ports from which the solenoids are located in the solenoid body. Marker.

    G08411875
  15. Long-nosed pliers.
    G08411876
  16. G08411877
  17. NOTE: Be careful not to wash the numbers from the solenoids or the solenoid body. Failure to install the solenoids in the ports they were originally in can result in damage to the transmission or a harsh shift.
    NOTE: Do not stone or polish any valves or damage to the valves can occur. If the valves do not move freely during assembly, install a new solenoid body.

    Clean and inspect the solenoid body, solenoids and valve assemblies for damage. Visual check.

    G08411878
  18. Inspect the solenoid screens for debris that may restrict fluid flow through the screen. Visual check.
    G08411727
  19. NOTE: The solenoids are calibrated from the factory and are not all the same. Failure to install the solenoids in the ports they were originally in can result in damage to the transmission or a harsh shift.

    If new solenoid(s) are not being installed, position the solenoids in the solenoid body ports from which their numbers correspond.

    G08411728
  20. If installing a new VFS, determine the base part number of the solenoid(s). The TCC solenoid, SSA and SSC are all normally low pressure solenoids. The LPC solenoid, SSB and SSD are all normally high pressure solenoids. SSE is not a VFS; it is an ON/OFF solenoid.
    G08614360
    Item Part Number Description
    1 7G136 SSB (normally high)
    2 7G383 SSA (normally low)
    3 7G136 SSE (normally closed [OFF])
    4 7G383 TCC (normally low)
    5 7G484 SSC solenoid (normally low)
      7G136 LPC solenoid (normally high)
    7 7G383 SSD solenoid (normally high)
  21. If installing a new LPC solenoid, SSB, SSD or new normally low pressure solenoids TCC, SSA, SSC, note the color of the plastic nozzle and large o-ring of the solenoid. The color will be black with an orange o-ring or brown with a green o-ring and the solenoid can only be replaced with the same color solenoid. A solenoids with a black plastic nozzle and an orange large o-ring is a normally high pressure solenoid and a solenoids with a brown plastic nozzle and a green large o-ring is a normally low pressure solenoid. Visual check.
    G08614361
  22. Determine the part number suffix by checking the solenoid service band number etched on the side of the solenoid. The band number is the third digit on the side of the solenoid and will be a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Use the following table to determine the part number suffix and match the new solenoid base part number and suffix with the old solenoid. Visual check.
    Solenoid Band Number Part Number Suffix
    1 B
    2 C
    3 D
    4 E
    5 F
    G08614088
  23. G08411884
  24. Solenoid retaining pins.
    G08411885
  25. Special Tool(s): Pins, Leadframe Guide 307-636.
    G08411886
  26. NOTE: Be careful not to bend or twist the solenoid body leadframe or the solenoid terminals when installing the leadframe or damage can occur to the leadframe or the solenoids.

    Push straight down evenly.

    G08411887
  27. G08411888
  28. NOTE: If the valves do not move freely during assembly, install a new solenoid body. Failure to install a new solenoid body can result in a harsh shift or damage to the transmission.

    For valve and spring location, refer to the SOLENOID BODY  illustration at the beginning of this procedure. Screwdriver.
