But it had other work done like AU plans, cryo treating, torringtons, bushes etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manual.htmLook at page 936 in the manual it shows what will happen if the 3 and 4 solenoid are always off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAHAVE New Member 2 Member For: 6y 11m 15d Posted 26/02/18 09:19 PM Share Posted 26/02/18 09:19 PM Just thought I'd throw in my 2 cents on an old thread. I have a BA, tried this mod due to there being an intermittent s3 solenoid or "solenoid c" fault showing up. Firstly I cant speak for earlier models but as for the BA when dummying off the s3 and s4 wires at the computer, make sure you use a 5W 27-42 ohm resistor as it needs to be able to handle some current. Secondly the other side of the resistor needs to be connected to VPWR pin 45 on ECC-B connector. NOT GROUND. And laslty, with the ba not having a T bar anymore and not using the manual shifting gate inside the box for 1, 2 , 3..... Doing this mod will make the gearbox no longer select 1st! It will just have 2,3,4. It uses the s3 and s4 some how to hold 1st gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
