The solenoids that regulate a pressure need a voltage source that cycles on and off at a given HZ but gives you the ability to control the time its off verses the time its on . Do you know what type of solenoid you have , or what its used to control ?

Its a 350 Turbo it's a Stock elim transmission so no trans brake. It didn't shift last Friday at Gainesville it didn't act right on the burnout or when it left the line. So we loaded it up and came home. I need to put it on the lift and pull the pan and go from there. I thank both of you for the Info you have provided. Thank You Kenney Kelley
