10R60 Solenoid Kit 2018, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 10R60. Ships fast from the USA.
Model year 2018 is when Ford's 10-speed spread from the F-150 into the Expedition, the Navigator and the Mustang, and it is the year this kit is listed for. If one of those vehicles, or a later 10R60 Explorer, Aviator or Bronco, is banging into gear, firming up every shift, refusing to lock the converter or setting solenoid codes, this set renews all eight solenoids on the main control at once: the six A through F shift solenoids plus the line pressure control (LPC) and torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoids.
The six shift solenoids get most of the attention, but the two variable force units in this kit decide how every shift feels. GEARS Magazine describes them as opposites. The LPC solenoid is inversely proportional: it delivers full line pressure at low or no current (about 50 mA) and very low pressure at high current (about 850 mA). That is a fail-safe design, so a weak or open LPC usually shows up as harsh engagements and hard shifts everywhere rather than slipping. The TCC solenoid is normally low, building converter apply pressure only as current rises, so a tired one shows as slip or shudder in lockup. Neither circuit ever drops to zero current when commanded off; the module keeps an idle current flowing to monitor the circuit.
Check codes and the scan tool's desired versus actual line pressure and TCC slip. Our pressure control solenoid symptoms guide walks through LPC testing, and the 10-speed TCC lockup guide covers converter slip readings. Rule out software first: Ford TSB 22-2428 addresses harsh or delayed engagements and shifts on 10R60 and 10R80 units with a calibration update. Also look at the valve body itself, because a stuck valve can look like a solenoid problem; the Sonnax vacuum test guide maps each A-F clutch control valve to its symptom.
This listing carries a 2018 year tag, and its compatibility list is made up of 10R80 applications: 2018-on Expedition 3.5L, 2018-on Navigator 3.5L, the 2017-on F-150 3.0L and 3.3L, the Raptor, the Mustang 2.3L and 5.0L, and the 2020-on Transit. The 10R60 itself only began in the 2020 model year, but GEARS reports that the 10-speed family shares controls and base solenoid part numbers, which is why the same set is offered for both. Ford calibrates each solenoid and prints a band number on it, so compare the band numbers on your old solenoids with this kit before installing, and check the tag on your case. Send us your year, VIN and band numbers if you want a second check. Browse more parts in our Ford 10-speed collection or compare the 10R80 and 10R60 differences.
If only the converter side is at fault, the 10R60 TCC solenoid for 2018 is available separately.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Its compatibility list is 10R80 applications such as the 2018-on Expedition and Navigator 3.5L, the F-150 3.0L and 3.3L, the Raptor and the Mustang 2.3L and 5.0L. It is offered for the 10R60 because the family shares base solenoid part numbers; confirm your case tag and band numbers.
The LPC solenoid gives full line pressure at low or no current, so a weak or open LPC usually causes harsh engagements and hard shifts in every gear. Check for Ford's TSB 22-2428 calibration update before replacing parts.
Yes. It has eight solenoids: six A-F shift solenoids, the line pressure control solenoid and the torque converter clutch solenoid.
Yes. Ford calibrates each solenoid and prints a band number on its side or end. The replacement should match the band number of the solenoid it replaces.
Mercon ULV only, with the level checked hot.
For solenoid replacement, clear codes and run an adaptive learning drive cycle. Full 13-digit solenoid body strategy programming is required when the valve body, the module or the transmission assembly is replaced.
