2.
Engage parking brake. Shift transmission shift lever to NEUTRAL position. Shift remote F/N/R switch to NEUTRAL
position. Start engine and operate engine at low idle (TM 5-3805-290-10).
3.
Ensure transmission neutralizer override is enabled. Transmission neutralizer override is enabled when transmission
neutralizer override switch is illuminated (TM 5-3805-290-10).
4.
Place autoshift switch in MANUAL position (TM 5-3805-290-10).
5.
Press and hold right service brake pedal. Disengage parking brake. Ensure machine is in FIRST SPEED position (TM 5-
3805-290-10). Watch pressure gages. When transmission is in NEUTRAL, clutch 5 should be engaged. Move shift lever
from NEUTRAL position to FORWARD position (TM 5-3805-290-10).
6.
Needle on pressure gage for clutch 1 should rise. Needle on pressure gage for clutch 6 should rise. With transmission in
FORWARD position, shift through remaining forward speeds and return to FIRST SPEED position. Use transmission
direction and shift lever to change speeds. Same pressure rise should be observed in each clutch when clutch is engaged.
This checks operation of all clutches.
7.
Repeat steps 5 and 6 for all reverse speeds. Refer to Table 10 to identify clutches engaged for each direction and each
gear.

Expected Results.
a.
If pressure rise is noted, solenoid and related electrical circuit are functioning correctly.
b.
If pressure rise is not noted, use screwdriver to ensure solenoid coil is energized. If screwdriver is attracted to sole-
noid coil, this indicates solenoid coil is energized. Problem is in solenoid cartridge. Problem could be bent solenoid
stem, screen that is dirty or plugged, or spring that is weak or broken. Replace transmission control valve (WP
0088 00).
c.
If screwdriver does not indicate solenoid coil is energized, problem is in electrical circuit.
