Fantastic video! Mostly wanted to see how to access the wiring because I think a rat chewed mine. Anyway, thanks for posting this - I watch a lot of DIY car repair videos and for a homemade style video like yours, I'd say this is easily one of the best I've seen.
Excellent, short video. Very little info online, let alone video, of doing this. Thank you! I need to do this on my wife's 09 Fit. Drained and filled fluid twice. Replaced one pressure switch. Working much better now, but not quite. Threw a code for Trans Solenoid Valve B. I believe that is the one closest to the front of the car in the dual solenoid assembly.
Yes. That was what caused me to research this on the repair forums. I checked the linkages on the transmission first, and then tried this. I first tried cleaning the old parts first. That somewhat worked better. But then I put in new parts and that fixed the problem completely. Super easy repair.
@@paulkresky1465 hi paul, thanks for the reply. did this repair today, yeah unfortunately mine’s a bit rough still on 1-2nd shift but was lesser than before i think. While i was there i replace the inline atf filter and cleaned the throttle body and manual idle relearn. Was averaging 25-28mpg before but got 42mpg on my test drive last night on the on board monitor. Will have to do a proper fill up to confirm Probably on the same boat as you were before and need new parts? Did you put original honda part or any replacement online?
Can you explain more about the little filters when removing solenoid. ......Is the removing of the 5th gear/overdrive solenoid the same as for as removal... You mentioned a filter replacement & pressure switch at 0:12 on your video, where is the filter & pressure switch?.....Thanks........
My 2009 Honda Fit isn't shifting above 3000 RPM. And the early gears shift pretty rough. I took it a a local mechanic. I got the electronic code. It's claiming Solenoid A is bad. I bought a new one and will attempt to replace it this weekend. Will follow your instructions step by step. hoping I can do this myself.
Bless you sir. I've been beating my head into a wall looking for hard shift and finding fuk all. Finally got back to the car with my code reader and found the P0756, and shortly after your blessed video. Can't find compressed air, more brake kleen on outside OK?
@@howtofrank502 On my 2005 GLi Jazz it's a single unit same as this www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-diy-repair-maintenance/92591-cvt-gearbox-not-moving.html My Solenoids were okay on testing, housing was stuck good, had to tap it (gentle) with a hammer to break the existing gasket seal. BUT! I did find the 'pistons' / actuators in the unit, one of them moved freely and one was stuck. probably by being slightly to big and wouldn't move. I took it out and sanded it down a little and now it moves freely. However! Although the car engages reverse straight away, it didn't engage in D.S or L straight away. It was taking up to 20mins to 'warm up' and engage, but now it takes only about 5 minutes. I did an error code rest by connecting the + and - leads, and shorted pins 4 and 9 at the OBD II reader. Still seems to have forward engagement issue/s on first start of the day, once its been running it goes alright for the rest of the day.
@@howtofrank502 Often the filters are getting plugged up on high mileage units. But 1-2 fluid pressure switch causes rough or late shifting before completely failing 3:24 9 volt alkaline battery can be used for testing too (I use it all the time even to test the cooling fans!)
Wonderful troubleshooting! Was the solenoid in the same area? I’ve heard bad things about the CVTs that were sold in your year model of Fit, the 5 speed auto is much more reliable. Hopefully your issue will be sorted out soon, my Facebook profile is in the description if you’d like some help!
Agreed on the filters, but from my understanding there isn’t a pressure switch for 1-2nd in the SP5A transmission. Only one for 2-3rd gear, been meaning to post that video as well!
Did your shifting improve after this fix? Regardless, thank you so much for making such an easy-to-follow video that should be a template for all other TH-camrs to follow. Wish more were like yours.
I love how concise and helpful your videos are! (Wish other YT content creators were like this!) Do you still have your 2007 Fit? Hope so, and hope you'll keep making more videos on this car!
I just followed this tutorial, but put in new solenoid. Now won't shift into second gear. I cleaned the portion on my transmission mopping up the fluid. Do I need to prime it to make it work? Or do I habe a bad part?
thank you for sharing. was it fixed by just cleaning your solenoids? my transmission often drops like youre on neutral while driving and shifts back up after a second. im positive that this is the same issue my jazz have.
If you put your fit in park and cannot turn the key all the way off? And disconnect the battery and then you can turn the key . And when you put the key in turn to On, but cannot put it in R N D and have to push the little tab at the gear shifter ? Notice that when out in park it doesn’t not unlock the door like normal, any idea what it would be ? Thank you
mine is cvt fit ge6 year 2008, it has Little power going uphill in reverse, it is also slow to accelerate in drive, I scanned the code and got p0572 shift solenoid A stuck open, any ideas on how to fix it?
You can help me with the problem of disconnecting the gear while walking, brother, I don't know what the problem is with disconnecting the gear while on the road
I changed my transmission oil and filter because I was noticing that the shifting from 1st-2nd was rough. It felt a bit smoother but still not as I’d like it. I tried cleaning the solenoids and everything was fine after but a few days after and I noticed that now all my shifts are rough 🤔 Not sure what happened. Any thoughts?
Had an episode a few days I go, where the shifting was very rough between all gear. It hasn’t happen again, yet. I was wondering what was the outcome with your situation.
@@TH-cam4mike still shifts rough but at this point I’ll just drive the car until it gives out. I bought it used so not much was invested to begin with.
@@dosmastrify still rough. This didn’t work for me unfortunately. I bought the car used so not sure how well taken care of it was before. I’ll probably drive it until it goes out.
@@YoungAbe1993 hello sir... Please replace the Solenoids and replace gaskets if needed. Clean the houseing where Solenoids go after removing them gently with brake cleaner and a rag.. after replacement remove positive and negative terminals on battery for 15mins then pump brakes 3 times then press brake pedal down and hold for 20 seconds, release brakes and reattach battery terminals then start car and let idle for 10 mins, go for a brisk drive and check trans fluid level. If no problem you should be good if check engine light still on, use a code scanner to delete check engine

Great to hear that. If i may ask, did your wife’s Fit also have a hard shift from 1st to 2nd prior to the part replacement?
