Transmission Parts Chrysler Valve Body Valve / Sleeve

Symptoms:

Codes 841, 868, 871, 988, 1775, 1776
OD clutch burned
Failsafe mode
Bind-up
2nd Gear starts w/MIL on
4th Clutch burned
Engine stall (41 & 42 series)
TCC apply & release concerns (41 & 42 series)

Cause:

Excess bore wear at the solenoid switch valve circuit allows critical pressure loss and causes plugs to hang up in the bore.

Correction:

Recover hydraulic control and prevent valve sticking by reconditioning the bore and installing the patented Sonnax oversized solenoid switch valve and plug kit.

Warning:

Measure large spool diameter on OE switch valve as shown here to verify which Sonnax part will fit the unit being repaired. Some Chrysler switch valves measure .420" dia. and others .453" dia. Another third version found in “late” anodized valve bodies have a .453" dia. but with a narrower spool and incorporates an ID groove. Sonnax offers repairs for all three sizes.

Part	OE Large Spool Dia.	Part No.	Tool Required
Standard-size kits address low to moderate bore wear. Oversize kits address excessive bore wear.

Solenoid switch valves and plugs in listed Chrysler transmissions cause bore wear as they oscillate and stroke during operation. This wear allows pressure loss and cross-leakage, and often permits the plugs to cock and hang up in the bore. This can result in failsafe mode, various codes, bind-ups and burnt overdrive or 4th clutches. In 41 and 42 series units, TCC concerns can result, including engine stalling due to improper lockup.

Reconditioning the bore and installing patented Sonnax oversized solenoid switch valve and plug kit 92835-31K restores vital clearances for renewed operation and control.

Patented Sonnax plugs redesigned to prevent cocking
O-Ringed end plug positively seals bore
Annular grooves help center valve and plugs in bore to prevent future side-load wear
Hardcoat anodized aluminum valve and plug combat premature wear
