E4OD Solenoids
Is there any way to test the solenoids in an E4OD without taking the trans apart?? Before anyone mentions pulling codes, I should mention that the computer is basically obsolete. It's a 92 F-150 that has been swapped to carb and has a stand-alone trans controller made by Bauman Engineering.

Not unless the stand-alone computer has that capability. Thats a good reason for not tossing out EFI in favor of a carb..........I imagine you could remove them from the tranny and check them out on the bench, but I don't know what the proceedure is. If I were you I would replace the EFI components and put in a computer for one with a manual tranny........thats just me though.

I agree with you massey. The only problem is that it's my brother's truck. He is on Parris Island at Marine Bootcamp, and he asked me to do a few things while he was gone. I strongly disagreed with him about keeping the E4OD, but he wouldn't have any of it. It would have been much easier to put in a C6 or something else, anything without ELECTRONIC controls. But, anyway, back on topic, I have a really bad feeling that he burned up the solenoids before he left for Bootcamp, and now I'm the one that is supposed to fix his screw up.
