CAUTION: Before removing OE boost sleeve, take note of the adjustable step/retainer location and ensure the Sonnax sleeve is installed at
the same height/location. Failure to do so will result in incorrect line rise.
NOTE: Remove all OE bore components. Discard all except OE spring

Place O-ring into single, deep and narrow groove on balance pin.
Lubricate with Sonnax slippery stick O-LUBE. Roll on bench to size.
Install balance pin into pressure regulator valve, then install assembly
into bore. Retain balance pin in the bottom of the bore with retaining
clip. Make sure clip fits in groove securely. Due to casting variations,
filing a small amount of material from the inboard face of the balance
pin may be required. Remove only enough material to securely install
the clip. For vacuum testing of the Sonnax valve, only the inboard
(balance) and outboard/spring (SLT) locations need to be checked.

Regulator Valve & Spring
Place scarf-cut seal into shallow groove on valve. Rolling the seal into a
smaller diameter before placing the seal in the groove will help to keep the
seal surface below the valve diameter, allowing for easier installation. Install
valve into bore, seal end first, followed by the spring.
NOTE: Due to the design changes on the Sonnax valve, vacuum testing at
the two inboard ports is not a valid sealing test. The Sonnax valve requires
balance fluid to travel through the valve and push the seal outward to
conform to the worn bore.

INSTALLATION & TESTING BOOKLET

IMPORTANT NOTE: The AW55-50SN/51SN, AF23/33, RE5F22A transmission is used in
GM, Volvo, Saturn, Saab, Opel and Renault vehicles. What is a normal operating condition
for one vehicle may not be for another due to the differences in operating modes and shift
strategies used by the various manufacturers. The OE specifications given in this booklet
are for GM units. Check OE information specific for your application during rebuild.

Electronic Cautions
Reflashing
The TCM (transmission control module) has memorized values that aid in shift
control. Most of the manufacturers have upgrades for this application. Check
OE bulletins and with your local dealers to ensure the latest updates have been
performed for your application.

S1

Shift Adaptations

S4
S2

This transmission uses adaptive strategy to adjust the various shift feels. After
valve body work, these shift adaptations must be cleared and relearned or shift feel
complaints and reduced transmission life can occur. The different manufacturers use
different relearn procedures. Check OE specifications to ensure proper relearn for
your application.

Solenoids
This unit uses 3 linear solenoids (SLU, SLT and SLS) calibrated to the valve body
that are critical to shift feel (Figure 1). These solenoids overlap electronically and
hydraulically which makes diagnosis difficult. Additional technical and rebuild/
replace information is included on pages 2 – 4. This transmission also uses 5 on/off
style solenoids used to control the position of the shift valves. All solenoids should
be cleaned to remove debris that results in sticking and malfunction.

Linear Solenoid
Installation

The length of the SLT and SLS solenoid snouts have
changed, as well as the retaining bracket and installation orientation of the connectors. The SLU reamains the same for all valve bodies. Proper matching of parts and
correct installation is necessary to avoid shift complaints (Figures 1, 3–7).

Linear (SLU, SLS, SLT) Solenoids
Handle these solenoids with care. Inadvertent turning of
the adjuster at the end of the solenoid will affect pressure
control and cause shift complaints. It is also common
for these solenoids to crack at the casting neck flange
area or connectors due to rough shipping and handling.
Examine the solenoids first to ensure they are not cracked
or otherwise damaged and are free of debris.

Linear Solenoid Adjustment
The adjustment screws on the end of the solenoids set the spring force against the
valve. The spring opposes the force of the solenoid coil. To avoid severe drivability
issues, the adjuster should be set at or near the OE position, which averages .195"
(Figure 7) measured from the end of the adjuster to the end of the solenoid manifold. If the adjustment is too far off (either in or out) a variety of drivability issues
occur. In many instances, an out-of-adjustment solenoid may cause the TCM to set
a gear ratio code or a solenoid amperage high/low code. Turning the SLT adjuster counter-clockwise reduces SLT pressure, which will lower line and converter
pressure. Turning the SLS adjuster counter-clockwise reduces SLS pressure, which
will reduce clutch apply pressures. The charts in
Figure 9 Figures 8 & 9 are for reference on which solenoids to

Heat Testing Linear Solenoids
A common issue found with the linear solenoids is a
hot drivability concern. This happens when the plunger starts to seize within the coil bushings at operating
temperature. The results are acceptable shifts when
cool, but a harsh downshift or flare upshift (often 3-2
and 2-3) over the 215°F range. If you suspect this, a
slow or sticking linear solenoid can be identified by a
hot soak test. Heat the solenoid to operating temperature. Using a shop rag or some method of protecting
your hand from the heat, pry and hold the valve away
from the plunger (with a pick or small screwdriver
through casting slot) and shake the solenoid. In a good
solenoid, the plunger shaft will be free to rattle back
and forth (Figures 10 & 11).

Solenoid Replacements

Figure 12

Aisin AW 55-50SN, 55-51SN, AF23/33 and RE5F22A linear solenoids are used to
control line rise (SLT), the converter clutch (SLU) and the oil flow rate and accumulation for the clutch circuits (SLS). The flow-to and function of these solenoids
overlap, making diagnosis difficult. The solenoids are prone to sticking of the internal pintle, creating inconsistent movement of the solenoid valves. Shift complaints
and pressure/flow related issues result. Remanufactured linear solenoid kits (set of
three solenoids) from Sonnax (Figure 12) were developed with an exclusive Sonnax
process that eliminates sticking solenoid problems. These solenoids are 100% tested
for pressure curve performance on a valve body test stand and calibrated to OE
specifications. Readjustment should not be required if the valve body leakage has
been addressed and a relearn process completed.

Casting & Plate Combinations
There are various castings and plates that must be properly matched to ensure correct
function. The front control valve body (Figure 13) may have an exhaust hole that
will correlate to the need for a check valve & spring on the opposite side (Figure 14).
Castings with this exhaust hole must be matched with a middle control casting with
2 flags (Figure 15) and a rear control plate with the two noted orifices.
