SS-B 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:
7.8 - 11.8 N.m (0.8 - 1.2 kgf.m, 5.8 - 8.7 lb-ft)




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

Tightening torque:
(A) 34.3 - 44.1 N.m (3.5 - 4.5 kgf.m, 25.3 - 32.6 lb-ft)
(B) 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 compartment first and

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

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




6. Remove the solenoid valve (A) after removing the solenoid support.






Installation

1. Installation is the reverse of removal.

NOTE:
- When installing, apply the ATF oil or white Vaseline to the O-ring (A) not to be damaged.




- Continue to apply liquid gasket at application points at the valve body cover with Ø2.5mm (0.0984in.) thickness.
Liquid gasket Part name :
Three bond 1281B or LOCTITE FMD-546
- Adding automatic transaxle fluid.
