About this product

Shoppers often search for an A760E governor pressure solenoid, but the Aisin six-speed in Toyota and Lexus vehicles has no governor at all. Road speed comes from electronic input and output speed sensors, and every shift and pressure change is made by solenoids on the valve body. What this listing actually supplies is a remanufactured set of nine transmission solenoids for the A760E and the transmissions that share its valve body design: the A761E, A960E, AB60E and AB60F. If your six-speed sedan or truck is stuck in one gear, flaring between gears, bumping hard into a gear or logging solenoid performance codes, this is the set that renews the whole electrical side of the valve body in a single pan drop.

What the solenoids do in an A760E

The transmission computer chooses a gear, then energizes solenoids to make the hydraulics follow. On/off solenoids S1, S2, S3 and S4 move the shift valves that set up each gear, and the SR solenoid works the same way on its own circuit. Linear solenoids are different: the computer varies their current constantly so they can meter how quickly each clutch applies and releases, how high main line pressure runs, and how firmly the converter clutch locks. Sonnax points out an unusual detail of this family: the on/off solenoids are fed regulated line pressure straight from the manual valve, with no restricting orifice. That means any leak in the feed circuit drops pressure to every solenoid at once, which is why one fault can look like several bad parts.

Symptoms this set addresses

How to confirm before you order

Performance codes in the P0751 to P0766 range set when the computer commands a gear and the speed sensors report the wrong ratio. A slipping clutch produces exactly the same result, so a code alone does not prove a solenoid is bad. Road test with a scan tool, watch the commanded gear against actual input and output speed, then check each solenoid's resistance and listen for a click when it is commanded. Our guide to testing solenoids without a factory scan tool covers that step, and checking line pressure tells you whether the feed side is healthy. With the valve body on the bench, also look behind the SR solenoid: Sonnax found a loose OE bore plug there that can leak line pressure to the sump and lower feed pressure to every solenoid. New solenoids will not cure that leak.

Fitment

The listing covers the A760E, A761E, A960E, AB60E and AB60F six-speed automatics. These units sit behind V6 and V8 engines in rear-drive and four-wheel-drive Toyota and Lexus models from the mid-2000s on, and the AB60 is the heavy-duty version behind the 5.7L in Tundra and Sequoia trucks. Solenoid style and connector shape changed during production, so compare the solenoids on your valve body with the product photos, or confirm the transmission code on the ID plate before ordering. If you are not sure, send us your year and VIN and we will check it. Other parts for these transmissions are in our Aisin transmission parts collection.

Install notes

The solenoids live on the valve body inside the pan. Drain the fluid, drop the pan and filter, unplug the harness at each solenoid and remove the retaining brackets. Keep track of positions: the linear solenoids look alike but are not interchangeable once installed in the wrong bore. Fit fresh O-rings lubricated with clean fluid and seat each solenoid by hand; never lever them in against the bracket. Install a new filter and pan gasket kit so debris from the old parts is not carried into the new ones, and refill with Toyota World Standard (WS) fluid, setting the level hot by the overflow-plug procedure. Afterward clear codes and reset the learned values so the computer stops compensating for the old parts; our guide to adaptive relearn after a valve body job explains why. If the pan shows heavy friction material, plan on a master rebuild kit instead of a solenoid-only repair.

A760E Governor Pressure Solenoid: common questions

Is this really a governor pressure solenoid?

No. The A760E family has no governor; it reads road speed electronically. The part supplied is a remanufactured nine-piece solenoid set covering the shift, pressure and lockup solenoids on the valve body.

Which transmissions does it fit?

It is listed for the A760E, A761E, A960E, AB60E and AB60F six-speed automatics. Compare your solenoids and connectors with the photos, or send us your year and VIN to confirm.

Will this clear a P0751 or P0766 code?

Only if a solenoid is the cause. Those codes mean the gear ratio did not match the command, which a slipping clutch or a leaking solenoid feed circuit can also cause. Test before replacing.

What fluid should I use afterward?

Toyota World Standard (WS) ATF. Set the level at operating temperature using the overflow-plug check, not by a cold reading.

Do I need to reset anything after installing?

Yes. Clear codes and reset the transmission learned values with a scan tool, then drive gently through all six gears so the computer relearns shift timing with the new solenoids.
