Replace Shift Control Solenoidvalve Assembly, Linear SolenoidAssambly and Rechock:1. Replace the shift controlsolenoid valve A'/B assembly(see page 14-106).2. Replace the linear solenoidassembly lsee page 14 108).3. Turn the ignition switch OFFand reset the PCM memory byremoving the EACK UP (7.5 A)tuse in the under hood fuse/relay box for more than l0
seconds,4. Drive the vehicle at over 12mph (20 km/h) in 1st, 2nd,3rd
