PREPARATION
Pre-2001 Transmissions
(Originally equipped with a 9-pin solenoid bulkhead connector and "soft wire"
internal harness)
Before installing the Quick 4 unit, make sure that the transmission has a high
impedance (~10 Ohms) torque converter clutch solenoid. A low-impedance
solenoid will cause damage to the Quick 4 due to excessive current draw and
should never be used. If the transmission is from 1992-94, it will have a 1 Ohm
low-impedance solenoid. All 1995 transmissions use this low-impedance
solenoid, except for the Crown Victoria, Grand Marquis, and Town Car. All 1996
and later transmissions use the proper high-impedance solenoid and do not
need to be changed.
To check which solenoid you have, remove the pan and check the part number
prefix on the solenoid. The right solenoid (high impedance) will have an “F5AP”
or later prefix. The wrong solenoid (Low) will have an “F2VP” prefix. You can
also check the solenoid with an ohmmeter by connecting the transmission
harness to the bulkhead. Set the meter to the 1X range and connect to +12V
(Red wire, pin 12 on the controller end of our harnesses) and the negative
Converter Clutch Solenoid (either Brown/Orange or Purple/Yellow for OEM,
solid Brown for our harnesses). The correct solenoid will read ~10
Ω , while the
wrong solenoid will read ~2 Ω . If you have the wrong solenoid, you can order the
right one from Ford. (Part #F5AZ-7G136-A).

For performance or heavy-duty use, the valve body calibration should be
modified to increase transmission torque capacity. Though the transmission is
electronically controlled, the valve body still controls full-throttle shift firmness
and the ultimate torque-capacity of the transmission. Baumann Electronic
Controls offers valve body recalibration kits with five levels of shift firmness,
allowing for precise calibration to meet the vehicle's needs.
