Technical Service Information

FORD 5R55E
2-3 FLAIR
COMPLAINT: Some vehicles equipped with the 5R55E transmissions may exhibit a flare on the 2-3
upshift, before and/or after overhaul.
CAUSE: One cause may be, a mechanically sticking No. 2 shift solenoid.

REASON: On a 2-3 up shift the overdrive band has to release and the intermediate band has to apply at
the same time. If the No. 2 shift solenoid is stuck open the transmission will fall back to 1st
then up shift into 3rd creating the flare shift feeling. Proper operation of shift solenoid is
shown in Figure 2

CORRECTION: Replace shift solenoid No. 2 as shown in Figure 1
