After driving for the past few years without OD (tried the band adjustment with no luck and electrics are OK), my torque converter lockup has gone out too. I am fairly confident the OD solenoid is to blame, and possibly now the lockup solenoid as well. Although I am still gathering the pieces to swap to the m5od, that project is still a ways off, so I think I am going to try and replace the solenoids.
My questions are:
Does the valve body need to be removed to replace the solenoids (from my searching, it looks like they are accessable once the pan is removed)?
If so, how difficult is the valve body to remove? Is it simply held in with a few bolts, and comes out as one piece, or is one of those delicate little things with a million pieces that will fall out if I tilt it at the wrong angle?
Thanks in advance!
