SERVO BODY DISASSEMBLY, INSPECTION, AND REASSEMBLY

1. Clean all parts thoroughly in solvent, and dry them with compressed air. Blowout all passages.

2. Inspect the valve body for scoring and damage.

3. Check shift valve D for free movement. If any fail to slide freely, refer to valve body repair (see VALVE

BODY REPAIR ).

4. When removing and installing the shift solenoid valves, refer to shift solenoid valves removal and

installation (see SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).

5. Coat all parts with ATF during assembly.

6. Replace the O-rings with new ones.

NOTE:



Do not hold the shift solenoid connector to remove and to install the shift
solenoid valves. Hold the shift solenoid valve body.



Do not install shift solenoid valve A before installing shift solenoid valve
D, and do not install shift solenoid valve B before solenoid valve E. If
solenoid valves A and B are installed before solenoid valves D and E, it
may damage the hydraulic control system.

NOTE:

New shift solenoid valve comes with new O-rings. If you install a new shift
solenoid valve, use the O-rings provided on it.
