Does a 700R4 Have Shift Solenoids

All automatic transmissions use hydraulic pressure to apply friction components; either bands or clutches shift into each gear. The 700-R4 (as well as the 200-4R and the 4L60) uses a cable (called the throttle valve, or TV cable) connected to the throttle linkage to establish that pressure.

What makes a 700r4 shift?

What does a bad shift solenoid cause?

If one or more solenoids are bad, you may lose the use of one or more gears, and may even be stuck in one particular gear or unable to shift into any gear at all. Do not confuse a slipping transmission with a solenoid problem. You will hear and feel the difference when you try to shift.
