Keep automatic shifts crisp and hydraulic circuits switching on command with the Standard Ignition Automatic Transmission Control Solenoid (TCS153). This solenoid controls fluid pressure inside the transmission's valve body, converting an electrical signal into the mechanical movement that blocks or vents fluid for proper shift control. It fits the 2006-2010 Scion TC, 2008-2015 Scion XB, 2009-2013 Toyota Matrix, and 2006-2012 Toyota RAV4 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.
- 100% copper winding: supports positive valve actuation on command.
- OE-matching resistance and inductance: for proper fit, form, and function.
- Precision-ground pintle: moves freely to block or vent fluid pressure.
- Stainless-steel filter screen: helps prevent contamination of the valve components.
Standard Ignition maintains quality control throughout its manufacturing process as a global manufacturer. Signs the original solenoid may need replacing include harsh, delayed, or erratic shifts and transmission-related trouble codes; because those symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the fault before replacing. If a failed control solenoid is the cause, this unit replaces it.
