so, my car refuses to pass inspection. i had it hooked up to a diagnostic machine today because it was throwing all these lights. it turns out, the transmission pressure control solenoid is bad.
i guess there is a tech bulletin out there for this.
has anyone else had this problem?
i have to replace it, but i need instructions. ideas are requested.
thanks

well, the part costs 50 bucks from the dealer. it's in the valve body area of the transmission. so, down goes the frame again, yay

it helps if you have all of the lines from the tranny connected properly. one of the lines that runs from the tranny to the radiator was leaking fluid and pressure. that's what was causing my problems.
yay, i can use my shift kit again.
