    Can you tell me where Shift Solenoid A is?

    I need to find Shift Solenoid A and check it out. Can anyone give me a diagram that shows where it is? I attached two pictures. Is the the Shift Solenoid A in the first one? If not, can you tell me where in the second picture to look?

    Thanks. Y'all are awesome.

    EDIT: I found the Shift Solenoid A, and cleaned it. The problem is, the car still spits a code 7, which is a SS-A problem. What else can I check before replacing the SS-A? I have already had the TCU bench tested, and it's good.

      If you cleaned it and it still doesn't work, it has probably failed.

          Great. Anyone have a lead on where I can get a Shift Solenoid A? Ebay doesn't have any. My local Honda dealer wants almost $250 for one.

              Junkyard should have plenty. I know there are plenty in dallas I would try to get a hold of someone. Might want to ask the local SA people too I know they know spots there.

                Local junkyard here says $64.99 for a used part. They include a 90 day warranty. How does that sound?

                      x2 and you should be able to pocket the solenoid its really not that big. Just wear baggy clothes and figure out the yards process of searching. Some yards dont give a rats ass and some as long as you buy something they dont really mind. But you can find it for cheaper than that. Check the regionals and post up in the texas for sale thread sticky just post a wtb and maybe someone will see it and might be able to help you out.

                        Thanks guys. The part I actually think I need is the "lock-up" solenoid, which looks like this:

                              Well, I bit the bullet and ordered the Shift Solenoid A from my local Honda dealer. It's actually referred to as a "lock-up" solenoid; the "shift solenoid" is also on the front of the transmission, but it's closer to the bottom. I talked the parts guy into giving me the 15% shop discount, so I'm only paying about $180 instead of $240 or so.

                              Basically, I'm so tired of not having a car that I didn't want to leave work in a rush just to dig through junk yard cars, pay for a part, and then have it not work.

                              Next question: If this doesn't solve my problem (S light blinking 7 times, won't shift into 1st gear), what I do I do next?
