After reviewing the hydraulic schematics I have found no use for the OD solenoid to use the transmission as a 45RFE (66RFE and 68RFE have not been reviewed). This leaves a spare solenoid to use as the Converter Clutch solenoid. Would I be able to just install diodes in line on the two solenoid driv...

There are five digital switches to determine shift lever position in the RFE series transmissions (45,66,68). Would there be any problem with installing a resistor on each switch and running them into one wire to make a voltage varying PRNDL like a Ford?

After reading the discussion again, I realized there is more than one gearset for the NAG1. The first post lists: 1st Gear 3.93 2nd Gear 2.41 3rd Gear 1.49 4th Gear 1.00 5th Gear 0.83 Reverse Gear 1 -3.10 Reverse Gear 2 -1.90 Chrysler service information lists: 1st Gear 3.59 2nd Gear 2.19 3rd Gear 1...

After thinking about this, the 5.00X+ codes could be used with the 'clutch outputs'. Clutch outputs can be set as active ( with user PWM settings ) or inactive for the duration of a shift, then they turn off. When outputs are used as clutch outputs, they have two timing elements: a fixed line press...

Simply awesome!

Seven solenoids? Wow. The 41te only has 4.. One of them serves double duty as TCC control (once into 2nd gear, a shuttle valve moves over and allows it to be used for TCC operation). So much for these things all being exactly the same. Do you have a chart of which solenoids are energized for each g...

If your wife's minivan has cruise control or steering wheel controls for the radio, those are multiplexed circuits. It is a Chrysler or Dodge, isn't it?

There is no 45RE. There is a 45RFE and it operates much like the 41TE. It has seven solenoids, a temperature sensor, a five wire PRNDL code plate, two external VR speed sensors, and an external pressure line pressure sensor to control transmission operation. LR/CC, UD, OD, 2C, 4C, and MS (multi-sele...
