Zip Kit Contents & Installation Steps
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 specications given in this booklet
are for GM units. Check OE information specic for your application during rebuild.
Electronic Cautions
Reashing
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.
Shift Adaptations
is 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. e dierent manufacturers use
dierent relearn procedures. Check OE specications to ensure proper relearn for
your application.
Solenoids
is unit uses 3 linear solenoids (SLU, SLT and SLS) calibrated to the valve body
that are critical to shift feel (Figure 1). ese solenoids overlap electronically and
hydraulically which makes diagnosis dicult. Additional technical and rebuild/
replace information is included on pages 2 – 4. is transmission also uses 5 on/o
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.

Solenoids
On/Off Shift Solenoids
The chart provides resistances for checking solenoids,
function to aid in diagnosis, and connector and wire
color to ensure proper assembly.
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
Installation
The length of the SLT and SLS solenoid snouts have
changed, as well as the retaining bracket and installation orientation of the connec-
tors. 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).
No Code & A Code Castings
SLT and SLS: Connector faces up (away from 5 on/off solenoid) when properly
installed (Figure 1).
• If short SLS and SLT solenoids (1.408" w/hole) are used, an early style bracket
must be used (Figures 5 & 6).
• If long SLS and SLT solenoids (1.510" w/slot) are used, a late style bracket
must be used (Figures 5 & 6).

Important Solenoid Port Check
Always double-check that the solenoid ports mate radially to the ports in the valve
body casting.
Linear Solenoid Adjustment
e adjustment screws on the end of the solenoids set the spring force against the
valve. e 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 mani-
fold. If the adjustment is too far o (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 adjust-
er 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. e charts in
Figures 8 & 9 are for reference on which solenoids to
adjust and in what direction, should tuning be required.
Heat Testing Linear Solenoids
A common issue found with the linear solenoids is a
hot drivability concern. is happens when the plung-
er starts to seize within the coil bushings at operating
temperature. e results are acceptable shifts when
cool, but a harsh downshift or are upshift (often 3-2
and 2-3) over the 215°F range. If you suspect this, a
slow or sticking linear solenoid can be identied by a
hot soak test. Heat the solenoid to operating tempera-
ture. 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
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 ow rate and accu-
mulation for the clutch circuits (SLS). e ow-to and function of these solenoids
overlap, making diagnosis dicult. e solenoids are prone to sticking of the inter-
nal pintle, creating inconsistent movement of the solenoid valves. Shift complaints
and pressure/ow 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. ese solenoids are 100% tested
for pressure curve performance on a valve body test stand and calibrated to OE
specications. 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.
