SS-A Solenoid Valve (ON/OFF)

Inspection

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the oil temperature sensor connector.
3. Measure resistance between sensor signal terminal and sensor ground terminal.
4. Check that the resistance is within the specification.

Removal

NOTE:
Replacing an on/off solenoid valve (SS-A, SS-B) does not require additional hydraulic pressure adjustment; however, the hydraulic pressure will need to be adjusted after replacing the VFS solenoid valve. If replacing the VFS solenoid valve; also replace the valve body assembly.

1. Remove the battery and the battery tray.

2. Remove the under cover (A).

Tightening torque:
6.9 - 10.8 N.m (0.7 - 1.1 kgf.m, 5.1 - 8.0 lb-ft)




3. Replace new gasket and the plug after draining the automatic transaxle fluid by removing the drain plug.
4. Remove the air breather hose (A).
5. Remove the valve body cover (B).

Tightening torque:
13.8 - 14.7 N.m (1.3 - 1.5 kgf.m, 9.4 - 10.8 lb-ft)

CAUTION:
Always replace the gasket of the eyebolt use new one whenever loosening eyebolt.





NOTE:
Remove installation bolts in the engine room first and then remove others under the vehicle.

6. Remove the bolt (3ea) after disconnecting the solenoid valve connector (B) and the oil temperature sensor connector (A).

Tightening torque:
9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft)




7. Remove the solenoid valve (B) after removing the solenoid support (A).






Installation

1. Installation is the reverse of removal.

NOTE:
- The gasket of the valve body cover gasket (A) use new one.
- Adding automatic transaxle fluid.





- Perform TCM learning after replacing the automatic transaxle to prevent slow automatic transaxle response, jerky acceleration and jerky startup.
