Huge thanks for this video. Helped me with solenoid replacements on the same car😀. If anyone else has questions on this repair or similar I can maybe help because I had a lot of troubleshooting I went through with this process!
Great video. My daughter's 2010 Chevy Cobalt had to have this done recently. It was setting a P0752 1-2 shift solenoid valve performance code and the symptoms were hard shifting.
I diagnosed the solenoid by using my scanner in bi-directional mode to activate the solenoids and the Solenoid A only clicked once and that was it. Solenoid B would click every time. After reading service information on the whole procedure which was exactly the same procedure for this car and not having a lift or shop to work in, I told her she was going to have to pay someone to do the job.
I found a guy who worked in a transmission shop that did side jobs at his house to do the work. I had him change both solenoids with GM parts. He used the same part numbers that you list down in the comments. He also changed the transmission fluid and filter. Car has 135,000 miles on it and the transmission now shifts very smooth. Her shift A solenoid was not burned like yours was but I guess just quit working. I had seen a lot of other YT videos with this solenoid burned up. The B one doesn't seem to do that.
Got an 05 Malibu recently and the codes are saying the clutch pressure solenoid. This helps me get a good idea where to start and a bit more confidence than just goin in blind. Thanks for the great clear video.
Great video, never would have attempted this without your knowledge resources. Eliminated erratic shift points of past thousands of miles.. Smooth shifting and renewed confidence. Thanks !
Awesome! Even 20 years later these are great cars.
I replaced torque converter solenoid and transmission control solenoid as well. The torque is located bottom left corner. And transmission below the 2 shift solenoids he did here. Had to get it off from bottom not top. They both had retaining clips that need removed to take out. This is challenging job im diy. I have p0748 code hopefully this gets fixed.
Dayum your good!!!
Great video! Looks like an Impala would be the same. Was the trans a 4T60 or 65 series?
Perfectly shot video. Thank you for sharing!
I have a 2005 Chevy classic. NOT a Malibu Classic. It has the 2.2 ecotec IT IS A 4 cylinder. I can see in this video that this one is a v6. There is limited info on the Chevy classic cause it was not a common vehicle. Although it looks exactly like a Malibu. I am trying to positively locate where the transmission pressure control solenoid is for 2005 Chevy Classic. ? I read that on most of transmissions the pan can be dropped and accessed there. The 04 to 07 Malibu shows access thru the side of the tranny like in this video. Looking for a video for my application. I appreciate the help.
Question. GM manual shows only part number 24207236. Is this part for BOTH it's just the location in the valve body? One on top and the same part for bottom?
Correct. Same part for both shift solenoids 👍
Did you flush the fluid 1st before you removed the side cover? And why same parts solenoid you mentioned on descriptions? Two solenoid same parts?
Good questions. There is no need to flush the fluid before the work is done. You can flush it after if you'd like. Yes both parts are the same part number. I listed it as separate in the description in case someone was only replacing one or the other. But I recommend replacing both while you're in there 👍
Hi, nice to see you can get at the solenoids without needing to lift the car! What were the indications that it only needed shift solenoids replaced and not an entire transmission rebuilt? Was it just rough shifts, no slipping? Were there any DTCs? Also, you didn't need to take into account the transmission fluid temperature when refilling the fluid? Thanks!
Yeah it had a code for shift solenoid A. It shifted really hard from gear to gear and sometimes it would be stuck in a low gear. The manual says the fluid should be between 70-90 degrees.
I just changed mine in my daughters car, not going to lie, it’s a pain. Although I didn’t remove everything you did, I got enough room to get it. Definitely burnt like yours. Took upwards to 10 hrs. Definitely not a job for weak minded people. Will really test your manhood. I’m not sure I’d ever do it again but nonetheless thanks for helpful info💪🏻👊🏻
Awesome! Glad this was helpful 👍
Putting that retaining clip back for me was such a pain.
@@spring6105 indeed, I took a pair of needle nose pliers after the pin popped out the 4th time, and I got it in. 👍🏻
Hello there, great Video, I'm about to do this job, I see Fluid leaking on the bottom, do I have to drain the fluid by removing the pan before opening the side cover? thanks in advanced!! probably you saved me hundreds of bucks!!
If you have a catch pan under the side cover when you open it up you shouldn't need to drain it beforehand. Just let it all come out when you remove the cover 👍
@@ValleyMobileAutomotive thanks a lot, will do!! Greetings!!
Trying to do this but the tie rod bolt just keeps spinning without coming out 🙃
Got it had to clamp it down with a C clamp and hit it with some WD40
Glad you got it!
How much that job cost in the shop
Probably 500 and up. I did it myself, sensor was roughly 50
Which one is A an which one is B?
They are the same part numbers and they aren't too expensive. I would recommend replacing both while you're in there.
A is the top one and B is the bottom one.
