About this product

Nissan owners usually find this part by searching the transmission code printed in their service paperwork: RE0F10A. If your 2007-2012 Altima with the 2.5L, Rogue or Sentra has started shuddering when you ease off a light, hanging at high rpm, or stalling out in fail-safe with the check engine light on, the electrical parts on the valve body are a common culprit. This RE0F10A solenoid kit, shown in the photo, gives you the solenoids on their harness sections with the green connector, along with two pressure sensors, so you can renew those circuits together instead of replacing one coil and waiting to see if the next one fails.

What the solenoid kit does in an RE0F10A

RE0F10A is Nissan's designation for the Jatco JF011E, a belt-type continuously variable transmission. Instead of clutches picking gears, the TCM varies the width of two pulleys to change the ratio. It does that through oil pressure, and these solenoids are the valves that meter it. The line pressure solenoid sets the base pressure for the whole unit. The secondary pressure solenoid controls how hard the driven pulley grips the belt, which is what stops it from slipping under load. The lockup solenoid applies the converter clutch at cruise. Pressure sensors close the loop by telling the TCM what the circuit is actually delivering. A weak coil or a lying sensor means the computer commands one pressure and the pulleys see another.

Symptoms that point here

Belt and pulley wear and valve body wear cause many of the same complaints. Sonnax's vacuum test work on this unit links slipping in both Drive and Reverse and high or low line pressure to a worn primary regulator valve, which is a valve body repair rather than a solenoid one.

Checking it before you order

Pull the codes and note whether they are electrical circuit codes or performance codes. Circuit codes usually mean a coil, connector or harness problem, which is exactly what this kit replaces. Performance codes with good resistance readings point more toward the valve body. Look at the fluid: if it is black, smells burnt or the pan magnet is covered in fine steel, the belt and pulleys may already be damaged. Our guide to CVT slipping under load explains how to tell belt slip from a pressure problem, and CVT failure patterns shows how these units usually wear out.

Fitment

This kit is listed for the RE0F10A from 2007 through 2012. Because RE0F10A and JF011E are the same transmission, it also applies to the Dodge, Jeep and Mitsubishi versions of that range. Harness lengths and connectors were revised during production, so match the connector and the sensor style in the photo to your old parts, or give us your year and VIN to check before it ships. Other parts for this transmission are on our CVT collection page, and the 2013 RE0F10A solenoid kit covers the later year separately.

Install notes

Drop the pan and drain the fluid, then disconnect the harness at the valve body. Transmission Digest notes the valve body can be pulled with or without the 22-pin case connector and harness; leaving the case connector in place makes reassembly easier. If you remove the valve body, hold the pulley-ratio lever with a 3 mm rod through the access hole so the spring-loaded ratio-control valve stays put, and on reinstall index the lever to the primary pulley follower pin. Nissan's ROM is matched to the TCM and a replacement has to be ordered by VIN, so reuse your original ROM. Fit new O-rings to each solenoid, install a fresh filter and pan gasket, fill with Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid and check level hot. Clear codes and let the TCM relearn. If the converter side tested bad on its own, the RE0F10A TCC solenoid is sold separately, and if the valve body bores are worn, the valve body with filter and gasket kit replaces the whole assembly.

RE0F10A Solenoid Kit 2007-12: common questions

Does this fit a 2011 Nissan Altima 2.5?

The 2.5L Altima of that era uses the RE0F10A CVT, and this kit is listed for 2007-2012 RE0F10A units. Send us your VIN if you want the connector and harness version confirmed before shipping.

Is RE0F10A the same as JF011E?

Yes. JF011E is Jatco's name and RE0F10A is Nissan's name for the same CVT. Dodge, Jeep and Mitsubishi vehicles use the same unit, so parts are shared.

Do I need a new ROM or TCM programming?

Not if you keep your original ROM. The ROM is calibrated to your TCM, and on Nissan models a replacement has to be ordered by VIN, so reinstall the one from your vehicle.

Can I replace only the secondary pressure solenoid?

You can, but when one coil has failed from heat the others have seen the same conditions. Replacing the set along with the pressure sensors avoids repeat teardowns.

Which fluid goes back in?

Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid. Fill with the engine running and check the level at operating temperature.
