The Aisin AW TF-80/81SC solenoid modulator valve establishes and controls feed pressure to a
f-39741-tl18 variety of solenoids. High or low solenoid feed pressure will adversely affect shift functions controlled
• Reamer by those solenoids. Wear at the inboard end of the solenoid modulator valve circuit causes excessive
• Guide Pin feed pressure. This floods the solenoids and reduces reaction time, resulting in harsh shifting and
high line pressure. Wear at the outboard and mid-section reduces solenoid modulator pressure.
• Reamer Jig
This loss has the most effect on engagements and boost oil for line pressure rise.

service a specific bore require the VB-FIX, The Sonnax oversized solenoid modulator valve kit 39741-18K corrects wear in all areas, restoring
