I took my 1994 z28 to a tranny shop to have the codes scaned. It came back as a bad shift solonoide (hope I spelled that right). I was wondering if they can go bad or do I need a new tranny. The shop wants to rebuild the tranny. Times are hard and I don't won't to spend any useless money. These parts are elec and I do know elec parts where out. Am I lookin at a tranny rebuild or can I change the bad parts ???????

 

Changing a shift solenoid normally only requires you to remove the transmisison pan. Your code should tell you which one.

 

Do they usually go bad if not what causes them to go bad
