12 N·m (1.2 kgf·m, 8.7 lbf·ft)
13. Disconnect the shift solenoid wire harness
connector, and remove it from the transmission
housing.
14. Measure the shift solenoid valve resistance between the following shift solenoid wire harness
connector terminals and body ground:
 No. 1 (GRN): Shift solenoid valve C
 No. 2 (ORN): Shift solenoid valve B
 No. 3 (RED): Shift solenoid valve E
 No. 5 (BLU): Shift solenoid valve A
 No. 8 (YEL): Shift solenoid valve D
15. If the resistance is within the standard, go to step 17 and check the solenoid valve for a clicking
sound. If the resistance is out of standard, go to
step 16.
16. Disconnect the shift solenoid valve connector, and measure the resistance at the solenoid valve
connector. Replace the shift solenoid valve if the
resistance is out of standard, then go to step 20.
17. Connect a jumper wire from the battery positive terminal to the shift solenoid wire harness
connector terminals, and connect another jumper
wire from the battery negative terminal to body
ground individually. A clicking sound should be
heard.
 If a clicking sound is heard, the valves are OK, and the test is complete, connect the connector.
 If no clicking sound is heard, replace the shift solenoid valve (see page 14-217). 18. Replace the shift solenoid harness if the test results
are OK.
19. Install a new O-ring on the shift solenoid wire harness connector, and install the connector in the
transmission housing.
20. Install a new gasket, the dowel pins, and the shift solenoid valve cover.
21. Check the shift solenoid wire harness connector for rust, dirt, or oil, then connect the connector
securely.
22. Refill the transmission with ATF (see step 5 on page 14-232).
23. Install the battery tray, the battery base, and the resonator.
24. Install the air cleaner assembly (see page 11-345) and the intake air duct (see page 11-348).
25. Do the battery installation procedure (see page 22-69).
26. Install the splash shield.

10. Remove the mounting bolts (F), then hold the shift
solenoid valve body and remove the shift solenoid
valves. Do not hold the connector to remove the
shift solenoid valve.
11. Install new O-rings (two O-rings per solenoid valve) (G) on the reused solenoid valve.
NOTE: A new solenoid valve comes with new
O-rings. If you install a new solenoid valve, use the
O-rings provided with it.
12. Install shift solenoid valves C (brown connector), D (black connector), and E (black connector) by
holding the shift solenoid valve body; make sure
the mounting bracket contacts the servo body.
NOTE: Do not hold the shift solenoid valve
connector to install the shift solenoid valve. Be sure
to hold the shift solenoid valve body.
13. Install shift solenoid valve B (brown connector) by holding the shift solenoid valve body; make sure
the mounting bracket contacts the bracket of shift
solenoid valve E. 14. Install shift solenoid valve A (brown connector) by
holding the shift solenoid valve body; make sure
the mounting bracket contacts the bracket of shift
solenoid valve D.
NOTE: Do not install shift solenoid valves A and B
before installing shift solenoid valve D and E. If
shift solenoid valve A or B is installed before
installing shift solenoid valve D or E, it may
damage to hydraulic control system.
15. Connect YEL, WHT, and WHT harnesses terminal (H) to shift solenoid valve D. The ATF temperature
sensor is installed in the connector.
16. Connect the shift solenoid valve connectors:  BLU wire to shift solenoid valve A
 ORN wire to shift solenoid valve B
 GRN wire to shift solenoid valve C
 RED wire to shift solenoid valve E
17. Install a new gasket, the dowel pins, and the shift solenoid valve cover.
18. Check the connector for rust, dirt, or oil, then connect the connector securely.
19. Refill the transmission with ATF (see step 5 on page 14-232).
20. Install the battery base, the battery tray, and the resonator.
21. Install the air cleaner assembly (see page 11-345) and the intake air duct (see page 11-348).
22. Do the battery installation procedure (see page 22-69).
23. Install the splash shield.
