ok.....so, a while back i had issues with my aw4's tcc suddenly not wanting to lock up about 75% of the time. after a bunch of troubleshooting, i swapped in a used #3 solenoid that tested good.
after this, it started working properly for a few months. it has recently stopped working "most of the time" again.
other than the lock-up, the transmission shifts/drives perfectly.
i have just discovered something that i think is an....or the issue.
if i check the resistance of the solenoids from the white connector in the engine compartment, i get infinite resistance between the "b" terminal(ground) and ANY of the three solenoid terminals(e, f, or g). if I test between e, f, or g and the battery neg post(or the engine block), i get about 15.8 ohms on all three when the tranny is hot.
check between any of those and the b ground wire.....i get infinite resistance.
it would seem that there is an issue with that ground wire somewhere between the plug and the tranny/solenoids, yes?
something about this just doesn't seem right though, since all other solenoid related functions work properly.
anyone have some input on this....?
