Kia Carens. Manual — part 170

2001 > 1.8L DOHC >

Disassembly

1) Each valve should slide in/out under its own weight.
2) When a vavle will not slide in/out under its own weight, depending on valve, push it out with a wire or

replace valve body open-side down and lightly tap it with a soft hammer.

3) If a valve surface or bore is scratched or damaged, replace control valve body.
4) Do ont drop or lose valves or internal parts.
5) Before assembly, make sure all parts are thoroughly clean.
6) Apply ATF to all parts and bores.
7) Note proper direction of valves and internal parts.
8) Do not reuse any part that has been dropped.
9) Wrap a screwdriver or rod with tape before using it to insert a valve.

1. Disassemble in order shown in figure.

Inspection

1. Measure spring free lengths.

2. If not within specification, replace spring (s).

Inspection

Solenoid valves

Resistance inspection

1. Disconnect negative battery cable.

2. Disconnect solenoid valve connector.

3. Measure resistance between each terminal and a ground.

Resistance : 14~18Ω

1) 2 : Torque converter clutch solenoid
2) 3 : Shift solenoid valve A
3) 6 : Shift solenoid valve B
4) 9 : Shift solenoid valve C

4. If not correct, check wiring for an open or short circuit. Replace solenoid valve.

Continuity inspection

1. Disconnect 55-pin connector from transaxle control module.

2. Check continuity between terminals H-01/30, H-01/33, H-01/32 and H-01/4, and ground.

3. If not correct, check wiring for an open circuit.

Linear solenoid valve

Resistance inspection

1. Disconnect negative battery cable.

2. Disconnect solenoid valve connector.

3. Measure resistance between ground terminals and of connector terminal H-03/1.

Resistance : 4.1~5.1Ω

4. If not connect, check wiring for an open or short circuit, replace pressure control valve.

5. Connect solenoid valve connector.

6. Connect negative battery cable.
