Component	Remarks	Resistance (Ω)
Shift solenoids S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5	Resistance between the solenoid pin and the solenoid sleeve or transmission housing	+20 °C= 11-16 Ω

For other values, see diagram. When taking readings at temperatures other than +20 °C, a control reading must be taken at +20 °C. This is done to check whether the resistance is correct or not.
