I'm installing a new solenoid.
Per my WorkShop Manual (dvd) it says to (in addition to removing the transmission fluid drain plug and draining fluid) "Remove the converter housing plug and remove the drain plug". This is the first time I heard of having to do this. I'm a little confused of why I would need to do this step. I just have to drop the pan to get to the solenoid.
Has anyone with a Gen 1 (5R55N tranny) changed out the solenoid and have to deal with the "converter cover & drain plug"?
