Thank you for the reply!!!
Im not sure the make of valve body, all I do know its a JW case and JW solenoid. When taken out, the plunger moves freely. Im 99.9% sure there is a electrical problem with the solenoid as we have had the same issues with the old mans solenoid in the past....
This rail hasn't run in a few years..... First 3 passes no issues. On 4th pass transbrake didn't hold. At first I wasn't sure I had it fully in first but during sat warm up I went to put some heat in the converter and it didn't hold again. ( I knew better, I should have changed it then!!!!) Seemed fine first pass but did the same thing 1st round.( Sure I was fully in first this time, lol )... A few friends stopped by and noticed the plunger seemed to have a very still spring.
