Solenoid Body Identification Procedure
Original Solenoid Body Service Tag
- Using the scan tool, select Powertrain, Transmission and Transmission
Solenoid Body Identification from the toolbox icon and follow the
instructions displayed on the scan tool.
The solenoid body identification screen displays solenoid body identification information:- Solenoid body identification is a 7-digit number
- Solenoid body strategy is a 13-digit number
The next screen displays the current solenoid body identification and strategy data file stored in the PCM. If the solenoid body strategy field is blank, the module contains a partial transmission solenoid body strategy. This is due to a corrupt or missing file at the time the programmable parameters were completed.
- NOTE: The 13-digit solenoid body strategy number consists of only
numbers. Letters are not used.
Compare the solenoid body identification and strategy (if available) to the solenoid body original service tag located on top of the transmission case.
Replacement Solenoid Body Service Tag
- If the solenoid body identification and strategy on the scan tool match the solenoid body service tag or replacement tag, then the solenoid body identification and strategy are correct for this transmission and a solenoid body strategy download is not required. If the solenoid body service tag or replacement tag is missing or damaged so its not readable or does not match the identification or strategy on the scan tool, remove the solenoid body connector and view the solenoid body identification and strategy printed on the solenoid body connector. If its not readable, remove the main control cover, REFER to Main Control Cover. The 7-digit identification number and the 13-digit strategy number are stamped on the solenoid body.
Solenoid Body Identification Tag
- NOTICE: If the solenoid body information does not match the
module information, transmission damage or driveability concerns can occur.
Inspect the solenoid body identification and strategy printed on the solenoid body connector and compare this to the solenoid body service tag on the transmission case. If the solenoid body identification and strategy printed on the solenoid body connector does not match the solenoid body service tag or if the solenoid body identification and strategy printed on the solenoid body connector match the solenoid body service tag on the transmission case but do not match the solenoid body identification and strategy numbers displayed on the scan tool, a solenoid body strategy data download is required.
Solenoid Body Strategy Download
- Using the scan tool, select module Programming and Programmable
Parameters under the toolbox icon and select transmission. Follow the
instructions displayed on the scan tool.
There are fields to enter the solenoid body 7-digit identification and 13-digit strategy recorded from the solenoid body.

transmission damage or driveability concerns can occur.
Enter the solenoid body identification and strategy.
The scan tool verifies the numbers entered are valid and display a message if the information is not valid.
The scan tool will check to verify the file is present on the scan tool. If the file is present, the technician may proceed with downloading the file to the PCM. If the file is not present, the scan tool will need to be connected to the PTS server to download the file onto the scan tool.
- Verify the file is present on the scan tool. If the file is present, go to Step 8. If the file is not present, continue with this procedure.
- Connect the scan tool to the PTS server.
The screen will display a progress bar when connecting to the network.
- Follow the instructions on the network to download the strategy file to
the scan tool.
The screen will display a progress bar when downloading the strategy file to the scan tool and display a message if it is downloaded successfully.
- If the scan tool cannot connect to the PTS server, download the file
from www.motorcraft.com.
If the scan tool cannot download a strategy from the web site, a partial strategy will automatically be downloaded.
- Reconnect the scan tool to the vehicle.
- Follow the instructions displayed on the scan tool.
- If a new solenoid body was installed, compare the 7-digit identification
and the 13-digit strategy fields from the solenoid body to the replacement
solenoid body tag provided with the solenoid body service kit and place it
over the existing identification tag.
The scan tool will automatically download the strategy file or partial strategy file to the PCM and will display a progress bar while downloading. The scan tool will display a message when it is finished downloading the data that states that the file was downloaded successfully.
- NOTICE: If a drive cycle is not completed, erratic shifts and
driveability concerns may occur.
Test drive the vehicle. Refer to Solenoid Body Strategy Drive Cycle in this section.
