Hi all. I have a '96 ES300 with a trans that is stuck in second gear. I have a code PO753, solenoid1. The trans was rebuilt three years ago and has been fine since. Fluid is full and clean. I need to know if my problem likely is the solenoid, or more likely the valve body. I need to know how to replace the solenoid, if I go in that direction. It appears the valve body has to come out, and I'm afraid of dropping check balls all over the place. Any advice is appreciated. Otherwise I have to let go of a car that has served me well for years.\
Thanks. Paul Smith. Raleigh, N.C. fat37ply@nc.rr.com
