Car shuts off when I come to a stop at a stop sign, a light or backing out of the driveway and hitting the brakes

Hi,

The torque converter clutch solenoid requires taking the transmission apart and isn't of a traditional type on this transmission. Can you explain what is happening? I'm not sure what you mean by your first sentence.

Also, have you had the computer scanned to confirm this is the issue? TCC failure will set a diagnostic trouble code. Honestly, before I would take things apart, I would have it scanned. However, that's your call.

Let me know if you have a code and exactly what is happening. I'm asking because it can be a few different issues. There is a pressure control valve, pressure control sensor, and so on. I attached a pic for you to see the valve body and components. Also, there isn't a simple torque converter clutch solenoid on this vehicle.

I hope you understand why I suggesting this. Let me know if you have questions.

Joe

Hi,

I have a feeling there is a wiring issue, but here are the directions for the valve body and related components disassembly and assembly. The attached pics correlate with the directions. Just out of curiosity, has the trouble code returned since you changed the filter and fluid?
