Ok so I got a "new to me" 2009 xB...got a CEL that the SLT solenoid was stuck. I dropped the valve body checked all the solenoids (all were good) put it all back together and went for a test drive. When I put it in reverse the car went forward, in neutral it went forward...etc. I have no reverse and no neutral. What did I miss putting it back together? I appreciate any thoughts/help.

 

you made sure everything lined up correctly, right?

 

Yes everything lined up right. ..the only thing I'm not sure about is the larger shaft/plunger on the driver side front. I'm guessing it's the shifting "linkage" maybe it needs to be set in differently

 

Yes sir, that's exactly your issue, take another crack at it. place it in neutral then line it up.

 

Yep! I just dropped the pan and saw it right away. Thank you very much!!!

 

Glad it's working bud!
so I assume you're all good to go?

 

Should be...I'm putting it back together now...then a test drive. I'll let ya know later tonight. Much appreciated

 

Ok...now the solenoid code is gone, but now I got a speed sensor code. p0793. How hard is that to replace?

 

before you replace it, make sure all sensors and their connectors are connected.

It's on top of the tranny it should be underneath all of the air duct for the intake.

 

Will do. It'll be Saturday before I get back to the car. Thanks for the quick response

 

So i pulled both speed sensors. The output sensor looked fairly "weak" is the only word that I can think of to describe it. Both had solid connections and ohm tested correctly. I've ordered 2 new sensors hoping that will solve the problems.

 

Did it work? I have 103k miles and I'm throwing a sensor code but it tested ok
