Repair Procedures

Inspection

  1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

  2. Disconnect the main connector (A).

  3. Measure the resistance between the power terminal (7) and the signal terminal (4).

    Specification: 10.5 ± 0.5 Ω

Removal

  1. Remove the under cover.

    (Refer to Engine Mechanical System - "Under Hood Compartment").

  2. Remove the ATF drain plug (A), allow the fluid to drain, and then reinstall the drain plug.

    Tightening torque: 22.6–24 N·m

  3. Disconnect the main connector (A).

  4. Remove the valve body cover.

    1. Loosen all valve body bolts except the bolts (A) at the corner.

      Tightening torque: 13.7 - 15.7 N·m

    2. Loosen the two bolts (A) at the corner. After supporting the valve body cover with a jack, remove the valve body cover by lowering the jack slowly.

  5. Remove the valve body (A) after loosening the bolts.

    Tightening Torque: 9.8–11.8 N·m

  6. Remove the electronic module (A) after loosening the bolts.

    Tightening Torque: 9.8–11.8 N·m

  7. Remove the solenoid valve support bracket (A).

    Tightening torque: 9.8–11.8 N·m

  8. Remove the SS-A solenoid valve (A).

Installation

  1. Install in the reverse order of removal.

  2. After installation, perform the procedures described below.

    1. Fill the automatic transmission with fluid.

      (Refer to Hydraulic System - "Fluid")

    2. Erase the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using the KDS. Disconnecting the negative battery terminal will not erase DTCs. Always use the KDS to erase trouble codes.

    3. After installation, check for coolant or fluid leaks from the hose connection while the engine is running.
