my cb7 sometimes has that problem.


btw theres 2 of those things. the other one is in the front of the tranny

There are one set towards the top of the transmission, that is the lockup. The other set is near the bottom of the transmission way down in front. They look alike but they will not interchange. If you have a code 8 it is the one way down low in front.

Here is some more info that may help;

by the way, since the tranny code list only went to 9. why was aI getting one long blink wich equals to 10? but now big deal since the code 10 is gone.(for now) by the way which is the shift control solenoids or the lockup solenoids, is it the part I replaced?

Your 10 was probably a 1 which is the lockup and you changed the lockup solenoids which cured it. Now change the other set which is the shift solenoids and it should cure your code 8.

My auto is throwing a code 7 or 8 with the D4 light blinking and the tranny is shifting in "safe" mode according to the Haynes. I replaced the TCU and nothing changed. Should I go ahead and change the solenoids out?

Yep that is the shift control solenoids which are the lower ones.

How do you reset them?

The right way to reset them is to remove the backup fuse under the hood and reinstall it or disconnect the positive battery cable then turn the ignition switch on and off then reconnect the cable. Their are a few people here who like to aggitate and curse at people instead of helping so just ignore the rude few and we will try to help all we can. I myself didn't read anything about shifting the automatic manually and really don't know why anyone would as it can shift a lot faster than you can anyway.
