Leak Test Procedure
Important:
• | This procedure tests On/Off type solenoid valves. |
• | Visually inspect the physical condition of the solenoid before testing.
Inspect the O-rings before and after the test to be sure that they are not cut or
damaged. |
- Remove the shift solenoid valve from the control valve body or the TCC solenoid
valve from the transmission case. Refer to 1-2 SS Rplc*, 2-3 SS Rplc*,
4-5 SS Rplc* or Torq Conv Clutch TCC Sol Rplc*, Tran Elect H Rplc*.
- Install the TCC solenoid valve, the 1-2 shift solenoid
valve, the 2-3 shift solenoid valve or the 4-5 shift solenoid into bore number 5
of the
J-44246 .
Install the factory
retainer clip to retain the solenoid.
- Connect the solenoid testing harness supplied with
the
J-44246 to the solenoid.
Important: Do not use air pressure in excess of 120 psi.
Excessive pressure will not allow the solenoid ball check valve to seat properly.
Recommended air pressure is 50 psi.
- Apply compressed air to the
J-44246 .
- Connect the solenoid testing harness to the, 12 volt, positive
and negative (-) battery terminals.
- Observe if the solenoid is operating electrically. An audible clicking
noise can be heard when connecting or disconnecting power.
Important:
• | All solenoids need to be energised to seal. |
• | A small amount of air leakage is normal +/- 21 kPa (+/-
3 psi). |
- Observe the air flow through the solenoid. The flow will completely or nearly
completely stop. Replace the solenoid if there continues to be an obvious air leak
when the solenoid is energised.
Important: Inspect the O-rings after the test to be
sure that they are not cut or damaged.
- Install the shift solenoid valve into the control valve body or the TCC solenoid
valve into the transmission case. Refer to 1-2 SS Rplc*, 2-3 SS Rplc*,
4-5 SS Rplc* or Torq Conv Clutch TCC Sol Rplc*, Tran Elect H Rplc*.
