Tightening torque:

9.8 - 11.8 N·m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf·m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb·ft)

Remove the valve body assembly (A).

Tightening torque:

9.8 - 11.8 N·m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf·m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb·ft)

8.	Disconnect the input/output speed sensor connector (A).

Loosen the solenoid valve harness bolt (A).

Tightening torque:

9.8 - 11.8 N·m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf·m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb·ft)

10.	Disconnect the solenoid valve connector (A).

11.	Remove the solenoid valve connector mounting clip (A).

12.	Remove the connector (A) by pushing it downward.
