In this video I show you how to replace this common failure on the Ford Focus from 2000-2011 they all have this issue. If your Focus is throwing any of these codes SSA is likely at fault. Symptoms include harsh shifts and no 4th gear.

I'd just like to say thank you for your great easy to follow how to videos!!!!
I watched your video on changing solenoid A in the transmission of a ford focus, and then a few weeks later I did the repair myself with ease. And it solved my fords transmission problem!! So thank you!!
Did ur have no drive and then no reverse eventually
love the song in the background... "Worthy is the lamb who was slain!" .. in the midst of my troubles I cried out, and I was led here to this video!
praise the Lord above!
He's close to the broken hearted. He can make turn our darkest situations around in amazing ways. Glory to God!
I have a mazda and was referred to this from comments on another video. Even so, this was just outrageously well done for a video. Really helpful and crazy similar to what is needed for putting a mazda pan back on. Even though I have very little respect for fords apart from their 250 trucks, you are amazing and I have huge respect for you. Your videos are so clear, immensely detailed and you show your level of experience. All that equals priceless to us puny commoner diy wannabe mechanics, haha. Thank you so much.
I want to thank you for this video, I know nothing about cars but this give me the confidence to try, I found all parts in my local autozone and I didn't expend more than $85. thanks so much my car is driving smoothly now.
did you use silicone or a gasket on the pan?
Thank you for making all these videos They save me a lot of time and in some cases money. I hope you keep them coming.
superb! clear and easy to follow this man is an automotive SURGEON! Thank you b
you sir are worth a million bucks thank you!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video! I thought I was the only mechanic who listens to Christian music. lol
Thanks to this tutorial, I solved my 2003 Focus' P0750 error and the car is back to normal. HOWEVER, 2 of the transmission pan bolt heads sheared off, and I had to drill and tap, which was very distracting and time consuming. Also, the Permatex is VERY hard to squeeze out of the tube, making for an uneven, jerky bead around the perimeter.
Awesome thank you! I will try to change this myself now.
Great video and audio without background noises in excess.
FordTech sorry for the late response. In reference to slip and engage to 3rd that is exactly what is doing. Then to add more drama to my ride on my way home from work I was going between 45 to 50mph the car started to idle high then next thing I know the a wrench light came on, and then my car wasn't cruising more than 30 to 35mph. Took it to O'Reilly AP had them hook up there diagnostic and there was no P0733 or any other kinda code. I don't know what to do anymore. As for the fluid there isn't any burnt smell, fluid coloration is fine, and the levels are fine. Thank you for your help and feed back I have learned a lot from your videos.
This was just an amazing video! Thank you so much for taking the time to be so thorough and precise on how to do this. I often feel like people will make car videos and they will skip steps just expecting people to know or be able to figure it out on their own...like initially removing the pan or actually HOW to seal the pan back up with a sealer. Simple steps but still, steps that require more researching if you don't really know your way around a car. It drives me nuts! Why watch a video to have to go watch more videos?! BUT! This is definitely not the case with this video! Extremely well done! Totally dummy proof! HUGE Thanks!
thanks man I use your Ford knowledge for every problem on my 2010 focus!
Thank you for your video. I have a 2012 Ford transit connect Fx 2.0. Question: by replacing all the solenoids will it fix the reverse too? Apparently when the car worms up, it won't shift into reverse. Or is there a different solenoid for the reverse?
Good details bro !!! I hate when people leave stuff out! You explain very well
do i need to pull any fuses first or disconnect the battery before doing this
my d solenoid was actually the one that went out error code po766 i have an 03 ford focus with 270,000 miles
thank you! I was able to successfully replace my solenoid, change my filter, and reset the PCM on my '02 Ford Focus. so awesome and very much appreciated!
Hi.. Are you a mechanic?
@@D0nie11 No, far from it. Just someone who got tired of being over-charged by car shops.
Good music in the background! I listen to the same!
Really well done. I was just searching around to see if there were any other spots trans fluid might leak from after a solenoid replacement aside from the trans pan. It's a 2011 E250 but from what I'm seeing everywhere about the only spot a leak could suddenly appear after this repair is from the pan seal. The pan says reusable gasket...hmmmm
I was going to ask which one it is for forth gear and then I read the descriptions... god dammit man you’re a genius, thanks so much just have to wait for the solenoid to come in the mail
Great job on your video!
Keep up the good work and thanks for helping people out.
I just want to say Congratulations for your video! !
All videos should be so well done as this one!
any suggestions on if the transmission seems like it goes out of gear when accelerating. when you let off the accelerator it goes into gear and you can accelerate again.
Great video! I have a 2012 fusion se 2.5l and its throwing the code for the pressure control solenoid A. Would the layout be the same on the valve body as on the focus?
Love your videos and have a quick question regarding any drain procedure you might recommend on a 2008 Ford Focus automatic. I have seen some that will not only drain but flush out the lines in the cooler. What do you recommend? The Focus also seems to have a hard shift from 1 to 2 gear...hoping the filter/fluid change will help clear that up. Any chance a solenoid might be bad without a code showing? Thanks a bunch!
this is a great video ! easy to follow and do at home. Thanks for the awesome work..!
Great video and advice..I have a 2008 Ford Focus tdci auto which keeps changing in and out of gears jerking motion yet hasn't lost power...slipping is only so often. Would you suggest this a solenoid or bands?
Great video, im thinking about buying this year focus off of Facebook marketplace and the guy is saying it doesn’t go in reverse. Aspiring DIY mechanic and these vids definitely help out!
I appreciate you so much this video saved me so much money i was able to do the replacement my self 2013 ford focus
Ok, so fixing the seleinod should fix this hopefully right? Thanks for your info and help.
I have an 05 ford focus my question is when I had the codes checked it said all selonids were bad a through d is that possible because you put the car in drive and usually it will make it into second gear and then slip and not grab
wow its incredible how clean he got the inside of the transmission, after installation of the Solenoid.
own a Mazda Demio 2008
Thanks a million absolute same thing you made it soo easy
hi there! great video! listen when you take the fluid out, do you get the whole fluid like that or do u have to do something else, or use something else..? thanks
Great videos I have a 2006 fusion 2.3 I replaced the transmission and after that it still runs terrible. I replaced all the solenoids also . You have any idea what it could be . Thanks in advance.
I have a 2005 Focus. while driving home I came to a red light, when it changed green I went to drive off and had nothing. I can shift through all gears but they never engage. I have no check engine light coming on. I do however get a long constant beep when I shift out of park. Any ideas of what I need to do
Thank you for this valuable information!
Much love and respect 💞
thanks, great video,
got a 2010 ford fusion se 4 cyl gas
recently got p0756 and p2701
one guy recommended a whole new transmission rather than checking electrical or replacing the solenoids
im not a mechanic but may opt to try this work myself. we did a fluid exchange and a throttle body replacement before he found these codes
Do the solenoids controls specific gears? My 2009 focus shifts really rough from 1st to 2nd gear, then fine for 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th. Also don't have overdrive but have a few ideas as to why that is. I'll probably just replace all the solenoids because they are cheap but it would be nice to know which specific one is causing the issue.
I have a 2006 focus. I have a slow shift from 1-2, under light acceleration I can see it's slipping slightly (shifting at around 2500rpm, the rpms will rise about 200 or so then shift into second) . under hard acceleration it does not slip but the shift still seems slow at about 0.8 - 1 second. 2-3rd and 3-4th are nice and precise. The shift solenoid was replaced. could a damaged o ring cause the trans to loose pressure and shift like this?
VERY NICELY DONE
This was a great video man, it really helped me out tremendously I appreciate it...
2008 Focus automatic, sometimes it will not go past reverse. Turn engine off/on and it corrects the problem most of the time. Car has no issues with shifting once going. Does not happen all the time, very hit and miss? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hi. Thanks for all your great tech tips and videos. My daughter has an 00 Focus SPI. About 150,000 miles. Trans was rebuilt by the previous owner. I changed trans fluid around 120,000. Fluid is not burned. It slips between second and third but not all the time. Maybe only 2 or 3 times a week. Thanks for any info.
Rob Sallada I am thinking end cover groves on this one also many don't realize they need to replace it when they rebuild the trans.,
Great video! My girlfriend's 09 focus, doesn't go into reverse when you put it in park in order for it for it to in reverse we must leave it neutral, and when it's in neutral i noticed that when I rev it it won't won't past 3k rpm, now when when we drive it it sometimes doesn't want to shift like going up hill this happens 3 days ago now my question is would the shift solenoid be the issue or is the transmission in need of a replacement ? This happend when she curved the car and it started acting weird. So if you could give me some advice that would be cool thanks in advance !
got a 2001 focus throwing codes: p0766, p0732, p0734. shifts rough and tends to drop out of gear then pick back in very aggressively. fluid is black with shavings noted, just need it to run as a temp vehicle so besides needing full over haul and new clutches and everything what solenoids can i replace to get it running for now?
Great video! I have a 2008 Mazda 3. I'm getting code P0753. The Mazda repair manual i have says shift solenoid A is the solenoid closest to the front of the car on the driver's side. Amy idea which solenoid is solenoid A on my car? Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
Hi, in the video you describe the procedure of replacing the solenoid in a ford focus. Is this a CVT transmission? Is the solenoid the same for the CVT gearbox? thanks.
I'm having a shifting issue with my 2009 ford escape. originally it wouldnt go onto reverse. So i put it in park cut it off then it wouldn't crank. I checked some forums and they said the shifting solenoid was bad. do you have any info on those?
great vids guy, im have a problem with my 2004 focus, shift fine but if I let off the gas and give it the gas again its like my car is in neutral tell I stop and start back up again and it shift fine and statys in gear until I let off. no codes or ses light not on. any help is it a ssa? thanks
I have an '02 focus that has a hard time shifting into second gear. This problem is intermittent, and does not seem to vary with temperature. What happens is when it tries to shift from either first or third into second gear, it will shift into fourth for a moment, then slam into second. The transmission doesn't slip. Does this seem like a solenoid issue? There are no trouble codes when connected to a cheap obd II scanner. Thank you for any input you might have.
I have a 2005 focus zx3 with 150,000 miles. I had the blinking orange light and super hard shifting in reverse and 1st gear (all other gears shift perfect), so I replaced the A & B shift solenoids and it fixed the problem for about three weeks and now the light flashing again and is shifting hard when going into 1st gear and reverse again. Do you think that there are greater problems than these solenoids or should I try replacing them again and see if that fixes it. Or should I try replacing all 6 solenoids? All 6 solenoids on ebay cost 130$ vs. transmission replacement costs 1000$+.
question about the shift solenoid, are A and B the same exact part or are they totally different? also same question to a, b, c, d, e are they all the same or each different, or is it the first 2 the same and the last 3 the same but set 2 and set 3 are different?
I think I may need some solenoid work done on my 2007 Ford Fusion SEL V6 3.0L when it gets hot the slipping begins. But it only slips going from 2nd to 3rd, and sometimes from 3rd to 4th. I also noticed that when it is cold outside it shifts fine. But once it warms up, my transmission starts acting up. And it shifts really hard into reverse.
I have a 2011 that has harsh downshift occasionally when downshifting into second gear, what solenoid would I change ?
Thanks for the video! I do have a question, I have an 01 focus 5 speed manual SE that when shifting into 2nd gear it grinds. Most say it's the synchronizer for 2nd gear and others say to just replace the whole trans.
I'm in need of direction here if you can help. Thanks again!,,
Perfection marine services I would say synchronizer or bent fork. Manual transmissions are very hard to take apart I would replace it if the price is right.
1.) Is this the same auto trans on a 08 focus? 2.)Do you recommend a transmission flush on these transmissions if its over 113,000 miles?
great info. i have a 05 freestar that won't shift into hi gear, could it have the same problem? What Code & what solenoid would it be. Tim G
is this the same thing for p2709 on the ford 2006 fusion i have to change the ones on the other side of abc that"hardly fail" im getting the code twice might be two sensors so ima do all 3
Hi there , thanks for very informative video, I have a Hyundai elantra 2003 with the same issue, shift solenoid A error code, I got all the parts and willing to change it in the next days, do you know if the shift solenoid in elantra is the bottom or the car or on the top? preciate any input.
Thanks
Thank you for the wonderful video and the great detailed explanation, but I have a problem. I had the p750 until the transmission was totally ruined up in couple of months for my Ford Focus 2002. I changed the transmission with a used one but I have the same problems that I had in the beginning of my previous transmission. I had the check engine light on with P750 and P1000 in addition to smooth shifting at the early 10-15 minutes then the transmission starts to have delays in 1-2 , 2-3 and sometimes in 3-4 gears. The engine has some vibrations and while running after about 20 minutes when waiting in traffics the car start to have waving speed of the engine trying to shut down. The battery practically starts the car good but on exam it reads low battery. The alternator was changed before all these problems started 2-3 weeks after alternator exchange. Please, do you think the problem is in both transmissions, the old and the new or there us a problem in the car outside the transmission giving a false positive error P750 and causing all these problems?. Thank you.
I'm not sure but I hope I don't have the same issus
For a freestar Ford 2007 the solenoid is it inside the oil pan too
I have a 2010 ford focus and a coworker did my transmission service but overfilled it by alot. I didnt check and drove it for a long time untill one day it wouldnt go past 80, checked the oil and seen it was double of what the dipstick showed. Took some out and it does make the change but somtimes jumps up too 3000 rpm and doesnt want to make the change to its final gear (80km) its not throwing a transmission code for the solenoids or anything. Is it my internal clutches? If it was overfilled it could've glazed them if it reached up there.
Hi, I have a 2006 Ford Focus, with a p0960 code, is that the pressure sensor? Have you known any probs with this solenoid, the code is intermittent, sometimes doesnt come on, never comes on straight away, fluid is new and at the midway point on dipstick, thanks great videos Jon
i have a 04 focus auto trans,and it's like it's stuck in 2nd or 3rd gear it won't upshift or downshift my friend had the diagnostic computer and scanned it and it said shift solenoid d and e and something else open circuit.. just trying to find out since you're very knowledgeable on transmissions, do you think it's my solenoids?
great video the tech was very knowledgeable and informative and clear speaking, I'm actually having issues with my 99 Ford Escort shifting into OD. I'm assuming this is a similar procedure .good idea about clearing the code so the computer sends a right information. good information. Thx
You are a rock star good job another hit
Hi I have a 2002 focus zx5 and runs great till it gets worked up and then can’t go in reverse????
@FordTechMakuloco I have 2006 ford focus. I parked my car well... Then put into drive mode. All going well.. Now its not shifting from neutral back to Reverse and Park... I removed the wire from gear box and moved the shift lever.. Its working fine. I tried to move the knob over transmission. Its only going two steps.. DRIVE AND NEUTRAL.. I tried to push hard to forcely move to Reverse and Park. I cant. NO DTC pressent for transmission. Please advise.
Will this throw a check engine light? From reading other things about a stumbling issue when switching from 1st-2nd gear around 2500-3000rpm this may be the fix, but my car is 2018 and no check engine light
love watching your videos. They have been very useful. I know this is about the Focus transmission, but hopefully you can help me with my Fusion transmission. Fnr5 transmission shakes car when in gear at a stop. shifts through the gears just fine. had a tyranny flush done almost 50k miles ago. Fixing to do a fluid and filter change this weekend. was curious if a faulty solenoid would cause transmission shake ?
Thanks for the info. I've got an '00 Focus with 120K on it. Sometimes after shifting from first to second, the RPM's will spike and the transmission is in neutral for a second before 2nd engages. It's smooth, and the transmission works great otherwise. Would that be Solenoid C?
DJSkreebz Yes it sounds like a sticking solenoid, I would change out SSA and SSE
Hi ,very nice video.
I have Focus 2006, 2.0L engine. I'm facing problem with the Transmission gear Box. It's starts moving perfectly (from 1st To 4th shifts) But when the speed reduced less than 60km once I'm going to increase the speed again the rpm increasing to the maximum without power it seems trans on N not on D. If I put the trans on manual mode and shift down to 2nd shift the trans catch the gear then i can go with 3rd &4th.
Now I feel No power on the gears and torque lost. Is it solenoids? If yes which one is the defected?
Thank you for the education!
I have a 2000 ford focus zx3. It shifts fine but it will sometimes slip out of gear then back in. It is an automatic, It acts like when you are driving a standard and miss a gear but it doesn`t happen during shifting. It happens when you are driving at a steady speed. Does not matter if you are on the highway or doing 35 mph through town. What do I need to do
if u put 12 volts to the A solenoid shouldnt you hear a click?? im not hearing the click on either the a or the b solenoid, i also dont have reverse, but forward gears seem to work ok. any help greatly appreciated.
Just replaced the b solinolid and had the battery disconnected the whole time but never had the jumper wire. I took it for a test drive but still wouldn't shift past 2nd. is this because it still thinks it's in safety mode because maybe the memory wasn't completely cleared?
IAM getting a po123code and a po761code It also says the first code is solenoid A the second code says solenoid C do you think changing them both would help the transmission from disengaging from from 2nd and 3rd and 3rd to 4th
I have a 2013 focus, driving at low speeds and it kicked the check engine light on and started bucking around when shifting/accel. No reverse gear now. Maybe shift solenoid problem?
Awesome song in the background!
Great video I have a 2009 Mazda 5 4cyl automatic shifts fine then all of a sudden the car jerks the a.t. light and check engine light comes on and the tranny shifts down to 3rd gear when I stop then take off it shifts thru the gears only to 3rd gear and wont shift out of 3rd gear the tranny fluid is dark color a little black I stop put it in park shut it off wait a few minutes start it back sometimes it does fine shifts in all gears and sometimes it keeps doing it any info would help I havent had the codes ran thinking maybe tcm or shift solenoid or the pressure one im not sure thanks in advance
Great video ... Thank you!
Is there a way to test ssA. I get no "click" from it or ssB on the bench. Code was 0752 says ssA is stuck on. Thanks for the great video.
I went to the dealer today and I ask him about the part with explain the one with whit wire and he said solenoid a and b are the same ( the mini one) and he gave me the part number xs4z-7h148-aa and the price is $75 for each now my question is that part no the right one? Do I have to change both of them ? And if I buy after market or ebay do they have the same quality ? Just to to remind you my car ford focus 2002 automatic transmission zetec engine thanks again for your help .
What's up. How did you diagnose the solenoid? I have an 05 Mazda tribute with p0750 that will not engage reverse. I don't have access to the factory scan tool which is how Mitchell has you go about diagnosing it. I do have a snap on verus at work. The car came in for spark plugs and exhaust, the p0750 happened while at my shop.
Michael Herbert I test the solenoid from the trans bulkhead connector and saw it was open.
Thanks for a video it is off a great help.
Is there any external physical way to see that a shift solenoid has gone bad or is it only something you can see on a scan tool?
Ford Focus TDCI 1.6 2007, it will not go into gear like it wont engage, this has happend 2 times now, and doing a reset of the tcm brings it back, am i on the right track thinking it could be the pressure sol? the error code it gives me is a p0741, it got a pretty low mileage for its age, i used a convertion from km to miles, somewhere around 80k miles (113000 km) it looks like.
did you ever run into a 2008 focus se with an automatic trans that would not engage the park pawl, even after a cable adjustment? is the pawl accessible by removing the pan?
Great video and informative. I have a problem with my 2015 Ford Ranger 3.2 A/T with 126k Km. I have a problem with my transmission 2nd gear which experiencing shift shock but all the other gears shift fine and okay. Thanks in advance.
What are the chances this will fix my no reverse issue?? I only have 90k on the car. Ive heard the no reverse issue could be related to an issue elsewhere under a side cover on trans. If you have any input would be greatly appreciated.
Would this be similar to changing SSA in a 2007 Ford Fusion? Got a bad reading on it from local Autozone. Thanks in advance.
my zx2 is weak if I try to take off fast all of my solenoids click when I put power to them I am considering checking the epc in the morning but when I shift into 1 it doesn't slip at all!
any suggestions?
Where is the secondary valve body location? For an fnr5 06 fusion apparently I have a bad pressure solenoid B... Sounds like a good diy
Can i do that from the side or i have to remove valvebody... I never try this before but is the only thing i can do fo know
Should do a vlog on 90 - 97 Ford Taurus trans pressure control solenoid, cleaning the solenoid filters, VSS troubles.
Can a dirty or plugged solenoid B on a fusion cause hard jerking from a stop, and give no code? Or an I looking a clutch plates for 1st gear?
Your videos are very helpful. Would this particular video for the Ford Focus Shift Solenoid A Repair be applicable to a Ford Escape 2006 ?
No that is a different trans.
I have a Escape 2010 with a 6f35 trans Ford doesn't have one in stock and the aftermarket refurbished valve has a plastic shoulder and the original is metal numbers on the solenoid are not the same ever run into anything like that? I cant find that same type of solenoid that I pulled out. will the other one work or are the flow rates different?
