SOLENOID CHECK



SHIFT SOLENOID (SR, SB) CHECK



CHECK AT A/T CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR



1.Disconnect the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector.
2.Using the special tool (MB991709), measure the solenoid resistance.

Standard value:
Item
Measurement terminal No.
Normal condition (check condition)
Shift solenoid SR
4 - body earth
11 - 15 Ω (at 20°C)
Shift solenoid SB
3 - body earth
3.If the resistance is not within the standard value, remove the transmission oil pan (refer to GROUP 23B - Oil Pan and Valve Body Assembly Removal and Installation ).
4.Check the wiring harness between a defective solenoid and the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector for open or short circuit. Replace the transmission wiring harness as an assembly if necessary.
5.If a solenoid fault is suspected, remove it to check.

CHECK SOLENOID AFTER IT IS REMOVED


1.Remove the transmission oil pan (refer to GROUP 23B - Oil Pan and Valve Body Assembly Removal and Installation ).

2.
caution
  • Do not impact the solenoid.
  • Do not damage the terminals.
Remove the shift solenoid (SR, SB).

3.Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the solenoid terminal and the solenoid body.
Standard value: 11 - 15 Ω (at 20°C)

4.Connect the positive battery terminal to solenoid No.1 terminal, and the negative terminal to the solenoid body, respectively. Then the solenoid should be activated.
5.Connect the positive battery terminal to solenoid No.1 terminal, and the negative terminal to the solenoid body, respectively. When the solenoid is activated, air should flow through as shown in the figure.
6.Replace the valve body assembly if resistance or air flow is out of specification.

Pressure Control Solenoid (SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4, SL5) , Line Pressure Control Solenoid (SLT) and Lock-up Solenoid (SLU) Check



1.Disconnect the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector.
2.Using the special tool (MB991709), measure the solenoid resistance.

Standard value:
Item
Measurement terminal No.
Normal condition (check condition)
Pressure control solenoid (SL1)
25 - 26
5.0 - 5.6 Ω (at 20°C)
Pressure control solenoid (SL2)
15 - 16
Pressure control solenoid (SL3)
27 - 28
Pressure control solenoid (SL4)
17 -18
Pressure control solenoid (SL5)
29 -30
Line pressure control solenoid (SLT)
19 -20
Lock-up solenoid (SLU)
5 -6
3.If the resistance is not within the standard value, remove the transmission oil pan (refer to GROUP 23B - Oil Pan and Valve Body Assembly Removal and Installation ).
4.Check the wiring harness between a defective solenoid and the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector for open or short circuit. Replace the transmission wiring harness as an assembly if necessary.
5.If a solenoid fault is suspected, remove it to check.

CHECK SOLENOID AFTER IT IS REMOVED


1.Remove the transmission oil pan (refer to GROUP 23B - Oil Pan and Valve Body Assembly Removal and Installation ).

2.
caution
  • When a solenoid is removed, a control valve and a spring may be disengaged together.
  • Do not impact the solenoid.
  • Do not damage the terminals.
Remove the pressure control solenoid (SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4, SL5).

3.Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the solenoid terminals.
Standard value: 5.0 - 5.6 Ω (at 20°C)

4.Connect a lamp (12V-21W) between the solenoid No. 1 terminal and the positive battery terminal.
5.Connect the solenoid No.2 terminal to the negative battery terminal. The solenoid should be activated.
6.Replace the valve body assembly if the resistance is out of specification or the solenoid is not activated.
