Hi Byron,

I assume you are talking about the shift solenoids that are in the valvebody? If so, I included the procedure on how to remove the valvebody and reinstall it and yes, you can do it without removing the transmission.

Please let me know if you have any other questions on this issue. Thanks

Do you happen to have a diagram of the transmission shift solenoids? I bought 1 I just don’t know if it’s shift A or B.

We can definitely help with that but let's get a new post started so that you can provide all your specifics. We need to know what engine you have as there are 3 options and that will potentially affect the transmission diagrams.

Also, while this is related to this topic, this is a good question, and I would like others to find the answer and they most likely will not find it under this topic.

Sorry for any inconvenience. Thanks
