OK guys, I have bad news and good news. Sorry Memphis, you were wrong. That was a great suggestion M.B. DOC. I unhooked the two lines and the solenoid was part of that assembly so it came off with the lines. I then plugged the two holes and drove the car. The transmission works great. It has not failed to shift since. This is just another M.B.DOC success story. I really appreciate your input as I'm sure many many other people on this site do also. Thanks again, 190E2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
