Standard Ignition Automatic Transmission Control Solenoid P/N:TCS163
Help your automatic transmission's hydraulic controls respond as commanded with the Standard Ignition Automatic Transmission Control Solenoid TCS16. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 1986-1990 Ford Taurus, 1986-1990 Lincoln Continental and 1986-1990 Mercury Sable. For engine-level fitment, see the Buyer's Guide tab.
A transmission control solenoid is an electrically operated valve. When the vehicle's control system commands it, it directs transmission fluid within the automatic transmission's hydraulic circuit. If a failed solenoid is behind harsh, delayed or erratic transmission operation on your Taurus, Continental or Sable, the TCS16 replaces it. Diagnose the transmission first, because these symptoms can have other causes.
