my wifes 99 ex with a sohc, 5r55e has been having a fit the last few days.
iv read up on the vb rebuild an 2-3 shift flairing problems.
so i went to ford an ordered a new epc,bonded gasket,bracket an blow off valve.i installed everything as is called for. checked the resistance on the other silnoids an got 27 ohms on each 1s. i adjusted the bands also while i was there.120in-lbs backed off 2 turns ,lock nut tighten to 40ft-lbs. truck has 239,000 kilometers.
problem im having its still has a flair up on the 2-3 shift. it will shift on its own if you let it rev up to 4500 rpms. the od light will flash some times telling me i have a problem but when i scan the computer i dont get anything comming up. im kinda getting at a lost here what the problem might be.
any suggestions of the fix?
