Standard Ignition Automatic Transmission Control Solenoid P/N:TCS163
Help keep your automatic's shifts responsive and on command with the Standard Ignition Transmission Control Solenoid, part number TCS238. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic and 2007-2008 Honda Fit. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific application details.
A transmission control solenoid is an electrically operated valve. When the control module commands it, the solenoid moves to block or vent transmission fluid pressure in the hydraulic circuit it serves, which helps direct shifting and pressure control.
Signs this solenoid may need replacing include harsh, delayed or erratic shifts, a transmission that won't shift through its gears normally, or a transmission-related trouble code. Other faults can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the transmission first. If a failed solenoid is the cause, TCS238 replaces it.

Which vehicles does the Standard Ignition TCS238 fit?
It is listed for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic and 2007-2008 Honda Fit. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific application details.
What does an automatic transmission control solenoid do?
It is an electrically operated valve. When the control module commands it, its pintle moves to block or vent transmission fluid pressure in the circuit it controls.
What are signs the transmission control solenoid may need replacing?
Common signs include harsh, delayed or erratic shifting and transmission-related trouble codes. Other faults cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the transmission before replacing parts.
What part numbers does TCS238 interchange with?
TCS238 cross-references to TCS161, TCS781 and 28260RPC004.
How is TCS238 matched to the original solenoid?
Its resistance and inductance are matched to OE for proper fit, form and function. A stainless steel filter screen also helps keep contamination away from the valve components.
