Control Valve Body: Installation
CAUTION:
The intermediate clutch fluid inlet tube seal and spring must be correctly seated in the case. Failure to correctly seat the inlet tube seal and spring will cause an internal fluid leak and transmission damage.
- Using a drift punch, correctly install and seat the intermediate clutch fluid inlet tube seal and spring into the case. See Fig 1 . Install the Valve Body Aligner (307-334) into the transmission case. See Fig 2 .
- Install the control valve body and loosely install the screws. See Fig 3 . Remove the valve body aligners and loosely install the screws. Install the valve body cover plate and gasket and loosely install the screws. See Figure .
- Install the reverse pressure switch and loosely install the screws. See Figure . Tighten the screws to specification in the sequence shown. See Fig 4 . See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
- Install the reverse servo, using a crisscross pattern to tighten the bolts. See Figure . See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Install the manual control valve detent spring. See Figure .
- Install new O-ring seals on the solenoid body connector. See Fig 5 . Lubricate the O-ring seals with clean ATF. Inspect the transmission case bore to make sure it is free of foreign material and not damaged. If it is damaged, transmission leak may occur.
- Install the solenoid body. Tighten the bolts in sequence shown. See Fig 6 . See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Connect the reverse pressure switch connector. Lubricate the fluid filter O-ring seals with clean ATF or seals can be damaged. Ensure the fluid filter O-ring seals are correctly seated on the filter.
- Lubricate the seals and install the transmission fluid filter. See DRAINING & REFILLING under LUBRICATION. Install the transmission fluid pan and gasket and loosely install the screws. Using a crisscross sequence, tighten the bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
- Install a new torque converter drain plug. See Figure . See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Install the converter housing access plug. Reconnect the TR sensor connector. Damage to the solenoid body assembly can result if the screw is tightened above specification.
- Always install new O-ring seals on vehicle harness connector. Clean the area around connector to prevent contamination of the solenoid body connector. Use petroleum jelly to lubricate the O-ring seals to aid in the installation process.
- Install and lubricate new O-ring seals on the transmission connector and connect the connector. Install the shift cable bracket. Lower the vehicle.
- Connect the battery ground cable. Fill the transmission with appropriate fluid to proper level and check for correct transmission operation. See LUBRICATION .
