I was going to phisically change the solenoids around. That way, if it is a solenoid problem (From Drive) I would get only get third gear.
Explaination: (SV=Solenoid Valve)
Both energised=1st
Im currently getting only second, which means only SV2 is energised. If I were to swap these round (presuming SV1 is innoperative) there would be neither working. Hence third.
Only SV2 Energised=2nd
Again if Valve1 isnt working, all I would get is second, but if they were swapped round, Id have neither working. Hence third.
Neither energised=3rd
Whatever the case, third should always work.
Im a bit weiry about swapping them round though, as there is no gear sequence available for SV1 energised and SV2 off. Ive no idea what would happen.
If swapping them round gives any other result apart from third gear (assuming this works), then id imagine both solenoids are working fine and it must be a blockage problem in front of one of the solenoids or the main valve body.
OR.......The computer is still knackered. But we need a test rig for this, even though ive had all the components replaced, there's no guarantee its 100%.
Im dizzy, im going to lye down.
