About this product

This remanufactured solenoid set is listed for the later Ford 6F35, covering 2015 through 2022 applications. It is the lower-priced option for owners of a late-model Escape, Fusion, Lincoln MKC or other small Ford with the six-speed who already know the problem is electrical inside the case: a solenoid code that keeps coming back, a fixed-gear limp mode, or shifts that turn harsh or slippy once the transmission is hot. The pictured set has seven solenoids, the full count for a 6F35 valve body, so you can renew every position at once instead of chasing one code at a time.

How the solenoids run a late-model 6F35

There is no computer bolted to this transmission. The engine compartment module does the thinking, and the solenoids in the valve body do the work. Five shift solenoids, labeled SSA through SSE, apply the clutches in pairs to make each gear. A converter clutch solenoid controls lockup, and a line pressure solenoid sets the pressure everything else works from. On the later solenoid bodies Sonnax describes four added damper assemblies on the SSB, SSC, SSD and line pressure output circuits, there to smooth the pressure signal the solenoids send to the clutch regulator valves. When a solenoid wears, those dampers cannot hide it, and the clutch it feeds applies too hard, too soft or too late.

Symptoms that point to the solenoids

Before you replace solenoids

Solenoid codes on a 6F35 are often caused by something outside the solenoid. Start at the external harness connector on the case, where a wire can break inside good-looking insulation, and back-probe the circuit while you flex the harness. Next look at the fluid, because worn-out Mercon LV causes slip and shudder all on its own. If codes and wiring both check out but several shifts are bad at once, suspect the aluminum valve body bores before the solenoids. A worn solenoid pressure regulator bore lowers feed pressure to every solenoid, and Sonnax sells oversized valve kits for exactly that wear. The full order of checks is in our 6F35 problems guide.

Fitment and matching

This listing is for 2015-2022 6F35 applications. Ford changed the solenoid body between generations and paired each body with a strategy file in the computer, so the year alone is not the whole story. Read the solenoid body ID and strategy numbers from the tag on the transmission case and compare them with the lead frame. Then check the band number, the last digit stamped on each solenoid can, against the new set. If any of that does not line up, or you are working on one of the later years in this range, send us your year and VIN before ordering and we will confirm it. Everything else for this unit is on the 6F35 parts page.

Install notes

If inspection shows worn bores, a complete 6F35 valve body with solenoids saves the reaming work. If the clutches are burnt as well, the 6F35 rebuild kit with frictions covers the rest of the overhaul.

6F35 Solenoid Kit 2015-2022: common questions

How is this different from the 2015-2019 6F35 solenoid kit?

It is listed for a wider range, 2015 through 2022 applications. Both are seven-piece sets. Match the band numbers and solenoid body ID on your transmission to choose the right one.

Will it fit my 2020 Ford Escape?

Ford moved many later models to other transmissions, so confirm that your vehicle has the 6F35 first. Send us the year and VIN and we will check it.

What is a band number?

It is the last digit stamped on each solenoid can, a 1 through 5. A replacement solenoid should carry the same band number as the one it replaces.

Do I have to reprogram after installing new solenoids?

Yes. The solenoid body strategy is stored in the engine computer and should be reflashed, then the transmission needs a relearn drive.

What else should I replace while I am in there?

Solenoid O-rings, the filter and pan gasket, and fresh Mercon LV. Replace the valve body if the pressure regulator bores are worn.
