[jimbo74]

i hate to do this, but my thread has not yielded the information i seek, and glaciers rebuild diary helped a great deal but i still need a little further help


i need to buy a shift soleniod to cure a CEL/flashing od light P0761

i think this is the correct part?

also where is it located in the pic below?

 

[Glacier991]

Left most top is SSC solenoid. And that part is the correct part. ALL shift solenoids on the 4R55 and 5R55 are the same, totally interchangeable.

 

[jimbo74]

according to that, this is the correct one correct? im a visual learner, lol

 

[Glacier991]

Yes. Let's go around counter clo0ckwise from the\top right.

Top right is SSA, then SSC, then TCC, then SSD/CCS, then SSB then EPC

 

[jimbo74]

hopefully this will help some people

 

[Glacier991]

Well done Grasshopper.

 

[jimbo74]

so all of those parts, there are 3 different parts.... the tcc, the epc (both with colored bands depending on tranny) and the shift solenoids (doesnt amtter which tranny and all are interchangeable).....

right?

 

[BrooklynBay]

Only the shift solenoids are interchangeable. The 4R55E EPC is different than the 5R55E EPC.

thats what i meant the shift sollenoids are the same:

ssa
ssb
ssc
ssd/ccs

correct?

thank you brooklynbay

i pulled my EPC and its green, meaning i have the 4r44e... and a $200 epc!!!!!!!

anyway:


I added too much atf. it is past the hatched area. it goes up the dipstick and goes to the D in the word add.

"DON'T ADD IF IN CROSS-HATCHED AREA"

can i leave it alone? or is it critical to go buy a siphon pump and suck some out?

 

[BrooklynBay]

Check the level when it is warm. I don't think that small amount will harm anything. It can't be more than a few ounces. The 4.0L engine uses the 4R55E.

 

[jimbo74]

The 4.0L engine uses the 4R55E.

my epc is green

from what i gathered the red was the 4r55e or the 5r55e and green was the 4r44e



as for the level, i think it is ok now, i drove to safeway and once there, re-checked it, it was at the apostrophe in "don't"

"DON'T ADD IF IN CROSS-HATCHED AREA"

This is # 67 in my list of useful threads:

 

[jimbo74]

brooklynbay, you said i have a 4r55e, but i have a green epc.... according to the links above, and where i got my info from initially, it says the green one is 4R44E transmission EPC solenoid 1995-96 and the red one is 4R55E 4R44E 5R55E transmission EPC solenoid 1997-on (Also used in 4L30E 2000-on)

being mine is green, wouldnt that mean i have the 4r44e? my truck is a 1996

 

[BrooklynBay]

Since it's used with the 4.0L engine, you should have the 4R55E. Were the valve body or transmission ever replaced by someone other than yourself (maybe a previous owner)? I think that the color is also dependent upon the year, so it's the correct color for your year.

 

[jimbo74]

we had the tranny rebuilt a couple years ago, but.... i don't think they touched the EPC, there was no record of that on the invoice. we got the truck used with less than 60k on it from a former boss of my dad, i doubt anything was ever touched on it.

it is a 4.0 and it is a 96. what would make it a 4r55e as opposed to a 4r44e? i thought it was the color of the epc, but that is looking like that is not a telltale sign now....
