STANDARD: 12 - 25 ohms

4. Replace the lock-up control solenoid valve/shift control solenoid valve A assembly if either resistance is out of standard.
5. If the resistance is within the standard, connect the No. 1 terminal of the 3P connector to the battery positive terminal. A clicking sound should be heard.
