Hi,
I am having this code which says shift solenoid E, torque converter, or valve body. I figure the solenoid is the cheapest and easiest to fix so I'm just going to try to replace it instead of spending the same amount of money to have a mechanic diagnose the problem. I called Lexus dealer and they don't know which one of the 5 solenoids is solenoid E. Can someone tell me what is the "official" name for shift solenoid E? If you have a part number that I can give to the Lexus dealer, that would be great.
I also read somewhere (I don't remember where) that an after market torque converter will cause this code. Is this true? I had my transmission rebuilt (it is out of the warranty now) and I have the feeling that they used an aftermarket torque converter. If this is the case, is there anyway to fix it without replacing the torque converter?
Thanks.
