Shift Solenoid Valve B Test

Shift Solenoid Valve B Test





1. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A).
2. Select SHIFT SOL TEST in MISCELLANEOUS TEST MENU on the HDS.
3. Carry out A/T SHIFT SOL B test in SHIFT SOL TEST MENU with the HDS.
4. Shift solenoid valve B test is finished if the test result is OK. If no sound is heard, remove shift solenoid valve B, and test the solenoid valve.
5. Remove the intake air duct and air cleaner housing.





6. Disconnect shift solenoid valve B connector, and check the connector for good pin fit, corrosion, dirt, and oil. If the connector is OK, go to step 7. If the connector is not OK, repair the connector and do the test again.
7. Measure shift solenoid valve B resistance at the solenoid valve connector terminals.
Standard: 12 - 25 ohms
8. Replace shift solenoid valve B if the resistance is out of standard.
9. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the battery negative terminal to shift solenoid valve B connector terminal No. 2, and connect the battery positive terminal to the terminal No. 1.
10. Replace shift solenoid valve B if no clicking sound is heard.
11. If a clicking sound is heard, check the GRN/WHT wire from the PCM to shift solenoid valve B for a short or open. If the wire is OK, substitute a known-good PCM and retest.
12. Install the air cleaner housing and intake air duct.
