E4OD Solenoid Kit 1995, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the E4OD. Ships fast from the USA.
A 1995 E4OD that starts off in 4th, never finds overdrive, or slams from 1st to 4th is the classic solenoid pack complaint on Ford F-Series pickups, Broncos and E-Series vans of that year. This remanufactured E4OD solenoid kit for 1995 replaces the whole shift solenoid block, and as pictured it comes with a filter and pan gasket so the service is done in one pan drop.
The E4OD shifts with just two solenoids. Shift solenoid 1 (A) and shift solenoid 2 (B) get power whenever the key is on, and the computer grounds them in combinations: SS1 alone for 1st, both for 2nd, SS2 alone for 3rd, neither for 4th. The block also houses the coast clutch solenoid that gives engine braking in manual ranges, the converter clutch solenoid, and the EPC solenoid that sets line pressure. 1995 matters because it is the first year of the late-style solenoid block. Sonnax splits its replacement blocks at exactly that point: one for 1989-94 units and another for 1995-98 E4ODs and non-PWM 4R100s. On 1994 and 1995 units the solenoid feed circuit also supplies the 4-3-2 manual timing valve.
Most 1995 Ford trucks still run EEC-IV, so you pull three-digit service codes rather than OBD-II P-codes. Read both the on-demand and the continuous-memory codes; intermittent ribbon and connector faults often only show in continuous memory. An EEC-IV code reader does that without a trip to a shop. Next, unplug the case connector and check for green corrosion, pushed-back pins and a cracked lock tab. Then ohm the late-style block: SS1, SS2, coast clutch and TCC each 20-30 ohms against the shared feed pin, EPC 3.0-5.0 ohms. Our E4OD shift solenoid guide has the full pin chart and the forced-shift test. One trap: a truck that starts in 2nd or 3rd only when hot, with a pack that tests good, usually has a worn solenoid regulator valve bore. The 1995-and-earlier steel valve wears the aluminum bore, and a new pack will not fix that; see the E4OD valve body testing guide.
This kit is listed for 1995 E4OD transmissions. Because 1995 sits on the line between the early and late solenoid blocks, compare the connector and the part number on your old block with the photos before ordering, or send us your year and VIN and we will confirm it. If your truck is a 1989-94, the 1989-94 E4OD solenoid kit is the early-style block. Every other part for this unit is on the E4OD/4R100 parts page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is listed for 1995. Sonnax splits E4OD solenoid blocks between 1989-94 and 1995-98, so a 1994 usually takes the early block. Check your old block's connector and part number, or send us your year and VIN.
Most 1995 Ford trucks use EEC-IV with three-digit service codes. Pull both the on-demand and continuous-memory codes with an EEC-IV reader; intermittent solenoid and connector faults often appear only in continuous memory.
Often not. If the pack ohms good and there are no circuit codes, a worn solenoid regulator valve bore is the likely cause on 1995-and-earlier units. That is a valve body repair.
On the late (1995 and later) block, shift solenoids 1 and 2, the coast clutch and the TCC solenoid each read 20-30 ohms against the shared feed pin, and the EPC solenoid reads 3.0-5.0 ohms.
Use Mercon V ATF. Install the new filter and pan gasket, refill, and check the level hot in Park.
