Disassembly Procedure
| CAUTION | Disassemble the control valve body and replace the malfunctioning part only if there is a malfunction in the control valve body determined by the troubleshooting procedure and using the vehicle diagnostic tester (M-MDS). However, if there is a malfunction in the parts other than the following, replace the control valve body with a new one because the parts other than the following are not shipped from the factory as a single component. ON/OFF solenoid Oil pressure switch A Oil pressure switch B Coupler component Do not drop or apply an impact to the control valve body. Replace the control valve body with a new one if it was dropped or received an impact. Placing the TCM side pointed downward on a workbench directly could damage the TCM. If the TCM side is placed pointed downward, place the control valve body on an impact-absorbing material so that the TCM does not contact the workbench directly. A: TCM B: Impact-absorbing material |
