Ok, so before I get chewed out, I have already read KeeleDesign's Auto Tranny FAQ and I have searched high and low for the answer to my specific issue.
My car seems to shift fine, the transmission was just rebuilt however, the S light comes on but only SOMETIMES. When it does, it flashes rapidly and constantly. My interpretation of the codes listed is that this is code 1 and that would indicate a problem with Lock-up control solenoid valve A. I am no mechanic so I am very cautious about doing ANYTHING especially anything electrical and/or transmission related, but I can never seem to get it to the mechanic when its flashing and when checked otherwise, it doesn't indicate any issues. Most places I've looked associate shift issues with the S light flashing which I don't (seem) to have.
If this IS the issue, would it be safe to say I should change the TCM as well? Does anyone know what part # this solenoid is? I already know which TCM to get.
I know I may have answered my own question here, but I can't really throw a lot of unnecessary $$$ into this thing ATM but I dont want to risk chewing up the transmission over a $150 part.
Thank you all in advance.
