Thanks! Best of luck with it!

Surely 2 grand wasn't just changing solenoids right

@@james10739 I wouldn't be surprised if it was only for solenoids. Dealers are insanely overpriced

frickin dealers

I'm here because a transmission shop is trying to get 4.000 dollars saying he's going to rebuild my entire transmission in one day.. I think he's probably a crook just going to replace these solenoids and charge me for a rebuild.

A lift definitely makes it easier. We are fortunate for sure! Best of luck with it!

Same here with my 05 Tahoe, good luck

Did that yesterday for about 6 hours gotta change solenoids to because I have code being thrown so another 6 hours

Update, after being thrown around by various parts stores and finally finding a transmission specialist, I’ve come to realize that I have a 6l80 and it’s a complete part that’s a tad more expensive than just the solenoids. On top of that once it gets fixed it has to be programmed by a g.m.c dealer. So I just said screw it and sent it away to be fixed by someone else.

Interesting. I didn't realize the 6l80 had been around for that long. Glad you got it figured out!

Just ensure you wire wheel away from the exposed components. No need to put crap in your transmission.

@@aronlinde1723 wire wheel spinning, throwing gasket materials all over the engine or transmission doesn't sound good to me.

​@@peacepoet1947 do you two know what a bench grinder is?

@@fenixchief7 yes and I also have an angle grinder. Your point is what?

​@@peacepoet1947 his point was, he's not taking a bench grinder underneath the truck!

Why do you need to change the 23 or clutch solenoids? Not enough information and most solenoids replaced in videos never even mentioned or talk about them, only the shift solenoids! Reasons?

Nice! What were you symptoms before? Was your atf fluid bad?

@@KollynJ my symptoms were I only had 2nd and 3rd gear. Lol my fluid was fine. It was the solenoids that were the problem.

This weekend I also have the same issue the p0753 and I have a mild tune so I'll also be installing a Corvette servo if the parts come in this weekend the transmission feels strong I just don't have OverDrive so it's like driving a 80 Chevy truck on 35s

LOL. Well, it was either the $120 in parts and doing the work myself, or Taking it to the transmission guy and spending $900. In hindsight the job was way to easy for me justifying paying ANYBODY $900 to do the job. As inexperienced as I may be, it only took me (cumulatively) 1.5 hrs.

@@FunDuudeanything to make sure to not forget that may make the job easier? I’m fixing to do the same thing soon- did you flush your transmission with new oil or just pop the pan in and put new oil in

@@victorcorona8008 ...I drained everything that was in the pan (1 gallon and a 1/4) and then refilled it after the job.

Do we need to disconnect the battery?

Yes

The 90s gm engineers were way nicer than 90s/2000s Ford engineers. Ford can kiss my ass with all their unnecessary bullshit.

AWESOME JOB!

Oh,hell yes they did. First time I bent it over.After I bought another,because the linkage wouldn't adjust right,I somehow made my hands small enough to get out and put in those 2 bolts. Used a pivot head 1/4 drive ratchet.Another thing. Why in the fuck did they run the exhaust right up under the pan?Guess what kills transmissions? Heat,and its coming off the upstream converter that on a good day only gets maybe 8 or 900 degress.

If you find em, make sure to invite the Ford engineer that night and see if you can text me an invite 💪🏻💯

Great Idea Man. Thank you

Ya I've done that my suburbans have plugs but they are retarded tight and stripped I welded a nut in one and put a new one in and on my Silverado I installed a plug kit because ya it sucks doing it full

No problem! Glad it helped

Does rattling under my 2001 chevy silverado mean it's the rear end or the transmission

I just replaced my A&B solenoids , filter and fluid. It didn't fix my issue. But I didn't replaced the other 2 here. I think I'm gonna drop my pan again and get them 2 in and at least take a swing at it before I replace the Tranny. Mine gets to almost 40mph and it starts to Rev high like it's getting nowhere, or like it not going into the next gear. Like if I get it high Rev and release off the gas, it seams to go down, then kick in. But it revs high still after the kick in Idk? I thought the A&B, but I didn't get the 3-2 down shift and the other here. So maybe I'll swing at that and see If I have your outcome. Wish me luck.

@@GreyGhost615 how'd it go?

@@martincorrell950 I haven't got a shot at dropping the pan again yet to change the 3-2 down and the TCC solenoids. But I've also been digging around. If it's not that, I'll probably just try and grab a new/used and toss it in there. Go ahead change all them in the used. But we'll see. I've just been a little busy.

@@GreyGhost615 keep us updated. Thanks.

@@GreyGhost615 update?

LET US KNOW PLEASE!! 🇺🇸👊🏻💪🏻🤙🏼

Hope it helps!

Did it work

Did it work??

Wow what a deal !! 15

Awesome! Glad to hear it

Glad to help!

Yes very true. Need to start doing that as well

How much does one of those "suckers" cost?

​@@FunDuudeharbor freight has them $100 or so

I use pans with drain plugs. About 30 bucks on Amazon.

@@DocZoidberg549 Yep! I have such a pan installed too! They're very handy if going in and out frequently for tuning and such. Still, the vacuum extractor is nice since simple oil changes and such can be done without jacking up the vehicle... Once a year or so everything makes its way up to the sky for routine brake maintenance and such. Then, a full pan drain and filter change can be performed.

Buy a mighty vac or one from grainger long rigid tube into the trans pan, suck all the fluid out before removing pan

@@TattooTonyAlton yup that’s what I did, but I used a small hose and a spray bottle head it took alittle while to get it all but it worked

What were the symptoms/issues/faults?

Do they not make these pans with drain plugs so you don't have to make a big ass mess??

@@franklee9127 Yes they do. I bought a pan for a 2003 GMC and it has the factory drain bolt.

My 98 Z-71 is throwing the 3-2 solenoid code, might try this

That's definitely the correct way to do it. Don't risk messing up your ebrake

I need a vid of this bracket removal

Haha 😂 glad to help!

Awesome! Glad it helped!

They are a pain to remove. Just take your time with it and be careful not to scratch the side walls.

I have a 94 GMC Sierra C3500. Got a code 39 and can't seem to get much information about it from anyone so far. It says that it is a Torque Converter clutch sensor. Where is located on my 94 transmission? Is it in the same place as shown in this video?

@@michaelpearce8661 Should be in the same place. If you are going to fix it yourself, I'll tell you it made it a heck of a lot easier on me to simply buy a new transmission pan. Was only about $30 and came with a new gasket. Sooo much easier than trying to remove all of the old gasket from the old pan and less cussing.

@@50footofflame91 same here. And if you’re feeling froggy, you could spend about $50 and get a trans pan with a drain bolt. Makes life so much easier lol

​@@gabeh.5061yes some Asian cars have a transmission drain plug. Smart idea

No problem! Glad it helped!

What year and type of truck/SUV do you have? I got an 03 5.3 Yukon XL.

@@skud1971 an 05 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 5.3 as well

If you remove the front driveline on 4wd models, you can access the two bolts on the shift linkage bracket. These bolts require a 40 torx bit and a swivel head ratchet

not bad at all

Hey someone help me plz. Ok I have 05' TB and it shows the engine light but want shift into 3rd gear. Can it be this problem or ppl saying my tranny is going out. But when I'm driving doesn't seem like it

@@trdsport could be the shift solenoids. Did you scan the engine light to see if it threw a code?

I have the same issue with my 2000 gmc. I was thinking the wire from the throttle body that goes to the tranmission might be slacking. I'm taking my tranmission pan off tomorrow and replacing the filter and whatever else I can and i am going to see if it improves. Does your vehicle rpm go up past 4000 or does it struggle with that when you floor it?

@@tristinbrietzke5649 noticed that my rpms don't spike but it acts like its in neutral until I back off of the accelerator and feather it. I am going to start with a fluid flush then if that doesn't change anything I am going to do the same thing. drop the pan and replace all the solenoids. Also getting a pan with a plug. Easy to drain the fluid and I figure save some time cleaning the old pan. Now to only find the time to get at it...lol

@@dustinw5527 yeah we are going to do the same here when we have $$ to do it. Let me know if it fixes your issue!! These you tube people dont really have the time to ever respond to us commenters lol. If I get it done before you I'll let you know the outcome!

@@tristinbrietzke5649 yep will also let you know what the outcome i come up with. Sorry it won't be til this weekend. I work goofy hours and my garage is tied up with a 98 2 door tahoe. So it's the drive way for me... sure the neighbors would love me if I started wrenching at midnight...lol. I also would like to drop the pan and actually have the solenoids in my hand before heading to the parts store to compare them... my luck I would end up ordering what I think is right and end up having to make multiple trips to the parts store.

@@dustinw5527 lol that always happens. Best to take the part with you!

lol glad to help!

Drain plugs are nice! Hope it worked out for you!

What turned out to be the issue? I have the same issue after replacing my auto trans pressure manifold sensor

@@OSSCYT It wasn't the solenoids 😞 Everything went back together perfectly, and 1st and 2nd shift soooo smooth, but it just revs up to 6000 but will not shift into 3rd. So its time to either 1) do more KZfaq to see if I can drop it and put another one in or 2) consult a shop. Luckily trannys for these are super common if I do it myself.

@@CherryACR if you figure it out id love to know! Im waiting on parts currently

Did this work??? Having same thing

Sadly it may be a deeper issue :(

Thanks. Iam wondering why too, part changing must serve a purpose.

Please answer this

@@lielyncher755 mine were the 3-2 and the torque converter selinoid I chnaged all 5. Mine was stuck in 3rd woukdnt downshift and it stopped pulling chnaged fluid still wasn’t so I replaced it and it worked fine. Any slippage could be from the torque converter selinoid or your trans simply going out.

Stuck In gear

Mines stuck in 3rd gear once it hits 3rd gear it won’t shift up or down on its own, replaced all the solenoids and still does it. Fluid didn’t smell burnt and there wasn’t a single shaving in the pan

You can also take rear tail shaft mount loose and jack up the tail of tranny to get pan out

Not a bad idea!

Thanks!!

Which way were you trying to change gears, downshifting or upshifting? the car may not let you downshift depending on the speed and the RPM. The computer doesn't want the engine to over-rev so it will prevent shifting to too low of a gear. if you were already in the top gear and couldn't shift up then there is no where else to go, otherwise it depends on how the manufacturer set the gearbox up and how they allow you to upshift.

What does rattling under my 2901 5.3 silverado mean ?

Good question. Did you find your answer? It's an inexpensive gamble to replace the solenoids and fluid though, so I figure I'll try that first.

@@paxonearth mine put out another solenoid code the next day, this time 0751. Then I lost all gears except maybe 2nd. I towed it to a transmission shop. They said it failed the pressure test (so it was apparently something other than the shift solenoids) With 139k on it, I just told them to put a remanufactured one in.

@@paxonearth I seem to recall another channel showing a way to test the solenoids with a meter without removing the pan. It required an electrical diagram. Post up if your repacement works. I just had a feeling I wasnt going to be that lucky and have a code actually diagnose a problem rather than just a symptom.

@@jerseyjim9092 I ordered the parts. Keep you posted…

Yeah I use that trick too. Just make sure the brake cleaner is fully evaporated before sticking it back down the tube.

Why did you put your tools away while waiting for the oil to drain? You need them to put it back together.

@Timothy Geiger Filling the transmission is the last step, so you shouldn't need any tools.

@@timothyball3144 you missed what i said. The comment was made to clean up the tools while waiting for the oil to drain. That means you still have all the work to do. You drain the oil first, BEFORE taking it apart.

@Timothy Geiger Notice my first sentence about filling the transmission. Although I should have said filling through the check tube.

Good tip!

Since you’ll be in there, might as well change them all because it would suck to have another fail late and have to remove the pan again

Go on Amazon and get the kit with all solenoids ac delco.

No problem! Hope it helps!

@@TheSundaeDrive MY CAR PLABLUM REPAIR ADDRESS MY CAR REPAIR

Woo! Nice

hardly anyone does sadly.

Choppy harsh gear shifting

What abiut a slow and slippy shift from 2-3, will these solenoids fix that?

I think this is my issue.

Same thing happened to me yesterday 😂😂 I was doing donuts in the snow

Yes it would but change both of them because you're already going to be in there. You can get them AC DELCO on Amazon for a fraction of the owrrs store price.

Balto Time for a transmission overhaul, 3-4 clutch pack burnt up.

glad you were able to get it done!

Did u ever fix it?

@@Eastsidee817 im interested in this as well, my is sluggish to take off and once im going its fine but if i start up a hill it feels like it doesn't want to shift down and i start losing power

@@OSSCYT I ended up getting a p0741 code on my 60e and I changed the solenoid myself and that didn’t fix the problem, my problem was my tranny would get higher than 180 in the 200-230 range so meanwhile I added a cooler and its been helping I did that and the solenoid and no check engine anymore that will save me time till I eventually have to find a new tranny

@@Eastsidee817 I don't know about that guy, but mine was doing this once every several months, after rolling to a stop. Felt like it was in 3rd gear. After changing the fluid it never reoccurred, so it seemed like a bad fluid issue. Pretty sure it was originally 192k miles.

Any updates? My 05 does same when I pull my boat

Yes

9 ft lbs or 97 in-lbs

Best of luck! Let us know how it goes!

Good to know! Thanks for the tip

Lol yes

No problem 👍

Nice! Thanks for letting us know

I would fix the fluid level and see how it does after that. Get a vacuum pump and suck it out the dip stick and refill with fresh fluid

You ever figure this out mines having the same exact things going on

Seems only one

What happen

We couldn't do it without loosening components but maybe someone else knows a trick or two!

@@TheSundaeDrive I had to use two straps because they are small and I had them on the passenger side kinda halfway to the middle. I hoped changing the filter and fluid would do the trick but no such luck. Another video a guy did all you did and still didn't fix his problem. Then he found a blown fuse that was his only problem. So I checked mine and found another cluster Fk. I found a fuse that was in a slot that said it was a headlamp washer in the fuse block lid but it says it isn't used in the manual so that I don't have a clue what its for. Also three other fuses that were corroded. Now I have TWO trucks with electrical problems, one of those with a differential problem that is the only one driveable and another with a bad transmission that I can find that doesn't cost more than the thing is worth. So how's your summer going. LOL

I had luck on my 07 1500 just pulling the muffler to y pipe flange apart and pulling down on cat cross pipe.

Glad to help!

Hope it helps!
